Magritte is the only approved son of the top dressage stallion EH Van Deyk in North America and carries more performance proven bloodlines through his dam Mischka. EH Van Deyk sired 9 approved sons, among them the two German National Dressage Horse Champions (all breeds!) Kaiserkult TSF and Kaiserdom, as well as the international Grand Prix dressage stallion Polarion. The latter also sired the FEI Eventing Champion Grafenstolz TSF, a CCI*** stallion and the only horse in history to qualify for all three National Championships in Germany in one year (6yr old dressage, show jumping and eventing finals). The TB sire Patricius xx was an accomplished dressage horse, and carries similar bloodlines like the Olympic eventing stallion Windfall, a stallion whom we already used in our breeding program, and with a lot of success: Fairwind.

Magritte's dam Mischka combines excellent performance blood with the FEI dressage stallion Donaufürst and the FEI dressage stallion EH Erlkönig, an elite stallion in Germany. Donaufürst's sire Mahagoni needs little introduction, and his dam Donaufahrt was a full sister to the legendary sire Donauwind *E*. The generation is followed by Harnisch, a top show jumper producer in Europe and what gets us really excited is the mare family: the Mira II family is well known for stallions such as EH Michelangelo, EH Monteverdi TSF, Marco Polo (the grand sire of the century show jumper Milton!), as well as the excellent performance sires Mozart *E*, Morgenglanz *E*, Mikado or Oekonom.

At Fairwind Farm, Magritte is the partner of Fair Diva in 2008.
