||||||||||||||
Glamourdale won Individual and Team Bronze at the 2024 Paris Olympics but that was hardly his first time in the spotlight. He was previously named Champion of his KWPN keuring, placed second at his Stallion Performance Test, and commandingly won the FEI World Championships for Young Horses. Seemingly unstoppable since their commanding win of the Team Silver and Individual Gold Medal in the Special and the Freestyle at 2022 FEI World Championships, Glamourdale and Lottie have continued to bring home top ribbons and impressive scores as high as 92%.
Glamourdale’s sire, Lord Leatherdale, was Reserve Champion of his Stallion Performance Test and a successful FEI competitor; as well as a sire of Olympic medalist Everdale. His dam is half-sister to the approved stallion Numberto and has been an exceptional producer. Damsire Negro is proven choice for producing Grand Prix horses, including the Olympic Gold Medalist, World Cup Winner, and World Equestrian Games Gold Medalist, Valegro.
Glamourdale offspring have been selected for the World Breeding Championships for Young Horses, US National Young Horse Championships, PAVO Cup Finals, and many are now at the FEI levels. In the US, his offspring are winning USDF Breeders Series and Regional Championships and earning top Horse of the Year rankings. With power and scope to the movement, and a super character, Glamourdale offers the quality and name recognition dressage breeders are seeking.

Breeding Fees & Contracts
Mare Information
At Hilltop Farm we want to work closely with you and your veterinarian to ensure a successful breeding season and are available for questions at any time. The following information includes some basic suggestions as well as reminders on a few requirements for your breeding contract.
A Breeding Soundness Exam including a uterine culture is recommended, but not required, for all mares prior to breeding. If a mare fails to settle after two breeding cycles, Hilltop Farm will require a culture and cytology to be done at that time prior to any additional shipments of semen. We always recommend your vet checking your mare post-breeding to confirm ovulation. If a mare hangs on to a follicle longer than expected, it can be less expensive to ship additional semen than it would be to breed a second complete cycle. Getting your mare settled in foal is just the beginning. We recommend multiple pregnancy checks to help prevent cases of twins, misdiagnosed pregnancies, or lost time in the breeding season. The following schedule is what we recommend; only the first and fourth checks however are required by your breeding contract.
- 1st check (Required): 14-16 days post ovulation – optimum time for vet to pinch off a twin if more than a single ovulation is noted.
- 2nd check (Recommended): 28 days post ovulation – to confirm a viable pregnancy as the heartbeat normally appears by day 25.
- 3rd check (Recommended): 35-40 days post ovulation – to confirm maintained pregnancy prior to endometrial cup formation. Mares that slip foals early may not come back into heat.
- 4th check (Required): 55-60 days post ovulation – final confirmation of pregnancy in its critical first trimester.
Following your mare’s 14-16 day pregnancy check, please have your vet complete the Mare Breeding Passport received with your semen shipment and return it to Hilltop Farm. Any changes in pregnancy status after the 14-16 day check must be communicated to Hilltop Farm immediately. This Passport is used in all stallion reports to various breed registries and is used to generate a Breeding Certificate so that you can register your foal.
Cooled Semen
Glamourdale is not available via cooled semen. Please see Frozen Semen for shipping costs and details on Glamourdale’s frozen semen.
Registration & Futurity Information
Your mare’s registration and approval play just as important of a role as the stallion’s approvals when determining registration options for your foal. Please keep in mind that in order to register your foal with a specific association, your mare may first need to be presented to that registry for approval. In addition to the registries a stallion is approved with, there may be additional registration options based on your mare’s eligibility and the stallion’s credentials. If you are confused at all on registration options for a potential foal, please speak with Hilltop Farm and your breed registry PRIOR to booking your breeding.
