T.W. Voltage
2016, 16.3hh
Wachter Horses is proud to partner with Two Willows to present this promising young stallion for the 2023 breeding season.
Presented as a 2 yr old to the CWHBA, the committee was impressed with Voltage's type, conformation (7.92), correctness of gaits (8) and saw a great future for this young stallion. Voltage has presence, a gorgeous expression with a soft eye as well as his “Bling” which is trademark from his sire Centim. T.W. Voltage was lightly started in 2018 and met our expectations as a willing learner and a stallion who is eager to please his rider, a trait highly sought after in performance horses in the jumper-hunter rings where we see his future. He was Approved as a Canadian Warmblood stallion in 2022.
Voltage's sire, Centim (deceased) was a talented Imported Czech Stallion with the lines of Cassilius which include: Cassini I, Capitol I, Landgraf I. Centim was winner of his 100 day approval (2005) in Europe (Slovakia) with a super future ahead of him. He competed up to the 1.40 m classes overseas prior to being imported to Canada. In Canada and the USA Centim was shown in the Hunter- Derby classes with super technique with his trademark eye catching Chrome. Centim’s progeny who are just beginning to enter the show ring are doing well in the Jumper-Hunter and Eventing disciplines. Voltage's dam, Vera Lisa (KWPN), was a premium scoring CWHBA main mare. At 15.3 1/2 HH she boasts the lines of Metall, Olympic Ferro and Libero H. Metall, son of Olympic Ferro, competed to PR St George plus sired sons that competed in the young riders in Europe in Show Jumping. Libero H (1.60 stallion) is from the well known lines of Landgraf I- Ladykiller. Vera Lisa ( deceased) brings to T.W. Voltage the foundation of great dressage and jumper lines that are evident in the use of body, shoulder and scope.
Voltage will be standing to a limited number of mares in 2023.
