*2002 169 cm Rappe Hannoveraner

Hochveranlagter Dressur-Nachwuchshengst, lackschwarz im großen Aufriss der durch seine drei hochklassigen Grundgangarten und ein hervorragendes Interieur bei besten Rittigkeitswerten zu gefallen weiß.

Don Ricoss war 2005 mehrfach siegreich in Reitpferdeprüfungen, u.a. in der Qualifikation und im Siegerpreis der Reitpferde beim erstklassig besetzten Turnier in Elmlohe, ferner Sieger der Qualifikation und Vize-Landeschampion im Rahmen der WM in Verden, wo er 2005 und 2006 die Fahrkarte zum Bundeschampionat in Warendorf löste. Den 30-Tage-Test absolvierte er mit der höchsten Bewertung (8,84) im Teilbereich Dressur unter den 30 Prüflingen im Herbst 2005 in Neustadt/Dosse. Weiterhin konnte er 2006 bei seinen ersten Starts in Dressurpferdeprüfungen mit Traumnoten als Sieger den Platz verlassen.

Auch sein erster Fohlenjahrgang präsentierte sich in dunkler Jacke, drei sehr guten Grundgangarten und viel Chick! Auch auf den Fohlenschauen in Sottrum und auf der Kreisfohlenschau in Tarmstedt, mit über 50 Fohlen, konnten seine Nachkommen einen Klassensieg und auf dem qualitätsvollen Endring einen guten vorderen Platz belegen.

Der Vater Don Frederico war Körsieger seines Jahrganges, Reservesieger seiner Hengstleistungsprüfung, mehrfach hoch platzierter Bundeschampionatsfinalist und hat inzwischen zahlreiche S-Dressuren gewonnen.

Sein Muttervater Weltmeyer, Körsieger, HLP-Sieger, Bundeschampion und Hannoveraner Hengst des Jahres 1998, hat ganze Generationen hannoverscher Dressurpferdezucht geprägt.

Die Großmutter St.Pr.St. Erina brachte mit Warkant den gekörten Dressurhengst Wallstreet Kid (USA) und dessen Vollschwester Windsor Queen , die ihrerseits in Will Be (v. Wittinger) und dem Körungssieger und Bundeschampion Londonderry (v. Lauries Crusador xx) zwei bis S-Dressur geförderte gekörte Söhne stellte, von denen letzterer ausgesprochen Wertschätzung genießt. .
