Landor S is a true champion in his own right with immaculate exterior, three outstanding basic gaits and powerful jumping ability.
Landor S is by Landadel, one of the most popular and successful sires of his generation both in Germany and abroad, out of El-Fureida II, which stems from the wellknown Oldenburg Heida line.
Fureida II was sired by the Hanoverian sire of showjumpers in Godenhard, who for several years was the top sire on the FN breeding values list for his age group. Landor S's pedigree is then rounded off by the million-dollar producer Furioso II.
Fuerida II's first mating with Landadel resulted in the multiple advanced showjumping champion and puissance winner Laertes 14, who is now a successful international showjumper.
Landor S's two approved full-brothers, Landwerder (USA) and Lagoheidor (Netherlands), both have high placements in Grand Prix dressage, with Lagoheijdor the approvals champion in 1994 and stallion performance test winner in 1995.
Landor S's ability as both a sire and a competition horse is unquestionable.
As a four-year-old Landor S started winning in the showjumping arena, and was awarded Best Four-year-old of the Oldenburg stallion championship. In 1996 Landor S won qualifications in series for the Federal Championships with scores up to 9.0, was awarded state champion five-year-old showjumper in Rastede and finished eighth in the Federal Championship finals.
In 1997 he again was awarded federal champion at Warendorf. In the same year he also had his first win at intermediate category-A class, and was voted Oldenburg competition sports stallion of the year at the Oldenburg stallion approval.
As he kept progressing up the levels, right to Grand Prix, the victories kept coming. In 1999 he finished state vice-champion and runner-up of Weser-Ems competition, and was winner of the Volvo Cup S in Elmlohe.
As a sire Landor S has been just as impressive. Landor S uniformly transmits his type, charisma and quality of motions to his progeny, who are moreover characterised by excellent rideability.
He was approved as a stallion in 1993, completing his stallion performance test at Medigen the following year. His first crop of top quality foals hit the Vechta auction in 1995. Four years later the Landor S son, Contender (Landor S.Acord), sold for DM 58,000 at the same auction. In that year Landor S was also represented by three approved sons, one state premium mare and two Association premium mares.

In 1999 Landor S presented the champion mare "Lady Madonna", two further Diamond Ring mares as well as two Association premium mares, and five foals at the elite auction in Vechta, which sold for an average price of DM.37.000, with the top lot reaching DM.90,000. He furthermore presented the top foal at the Bavarian auction in Landshut and the third most expensive lot at the Verden elite auction.
The following year Landor S received top prices for his foals throughout Europe, and his first progeny participated at the Federal Championships at Warendorf. He also presented the largest number of juvenile stallions at the approval in Oldenburg.
Five of Landor S's sons were presented at the 2001 Oldenburg Korung. Two received the coveted premium rating including the Vice Champion. He has also been recommended for the program "Breeding of Hanoverian Showjumpers" by the Hanoverian Association in Germany.
Landor S is siring both successful jumping and dressage horses worldwide.
