Update v. United Way
Verband stallions in portrait: Update

His distinctive type, size, and modern shape definitely speak for themselves. 

At the 2021 grading, this young stallion from United Way’s first breeding season had been very much in the public focus. At just seven years, United Way counts among the most interesting breeding stallions stood by the Holsteiner Verband. On the international breeding and sport scene, his sire Uriko is attracting more and more interest through offspring like Uniquo (Jérôme Guery), Uricas v/d Kattevennen (Harrie Smolders), Untouched (Christian Hess), and Charisma HS (Richard Vogel), all of them successful at international level already at eight-year-old.  

The bottom of his pedigree is characterized by a succession of extraordinary sires based on a very successful damline. The damsire, Quo Vados I, stands for hardiness, willingness to perform and blood through his sire Quidam de Revel same as through Caletto II and the TB stallions Sable Skinflint and Cottage Son. The next sire, Cash and Carry, is the only Cash son used in the Holsteiner breeding programme. Despite his short career, this stallion attracted a lot of attention as a sport horse with his owner Hugo Simon as well as a top sire. The following sires, Contender, Lord, and the TB Sacramento Song, have had a very positive influence on jumping all across the world.  Performing only a few courses, his dam, Beatrix III, left a lasting impression. 
The third dam, Klara I, is also dam to 1.60m level stallion Quintender by Quinar.
The fourth dam, B-Estelle, produced Cardento, a successful championship contender with his Swedish rider and currently one of the very best jumping sires in the world. Most recently, another son of B-Estelle has been coming to the fore, Cartello VDL. Under Irishman Darragh Kenny, Cartello VDL successfully competed at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Having collected about 600,000 euros in prize money a year, he is one of the highest earning jumpers in the world.
