Fit For Fun 13 ♀

About Fit For Fun 13

Fit For Fun 13 is a chestnut Hannoverian showjumping broodmare foaled in 2004, by For Pleasure out of a Fabriano dam.

Fit For Fun 13's breeding record is narrower than that of the great high-volume foundation mares but unusually strong in proof quality. The programme ran in two phases: two naturally timed foals before serious sport, then embryo transfer and at least one self-carried foal after the international career, which protected her sporting window while preserving direct genetics.

Camargo, her 2008 Canturo son, is the strongest evidence-backed cross and her only direct 1.60m offspring to date. He is an approved sire, won a CSI5* 1.60m class at Spruce Meadows with Luciana Diniz, was second in Chantilly and fourth in the Shanghai Global Champions Tour Grand Prix, and now stands commercially. Champ of Fun, her 2009 C-Trenton Z gelding, is classified at 1.35m by HorseTelex and 1.40m in BWP material; both source-labelled values are retained. During the 2020 competition pause she left two embryos, by Verdi TN and by Eldorado van de Zeshoek, which produced Vino For Fun and Especial For Fun Z in 2021. Four named direct offspring followed in 2022 - Emotion For Fun Z, Dark For Fun B and the two Tangelo van de Zuuthoeve fillies Tini For Fun and Tiffi For Fun - then Diamantina For Fun in 2023, Dynamic For Fun Z, Emmi For Fun and Vision For Fun Z in 2024, and Zicco For Fun Z in 2025.

Commercial response has been exceptional and is documented by cited auctions: Especial For Fun Z EUR 160,000 in 2021, Emotion For Fun Z EUR 165,000 in 2022, Dynamic For Fun Z EUR 68,000 and Vision For Fun Z EUR 55,000 in 2024, and Zicco For Fun Z EUR 50,000 in 2025. Vino For Fun is BWP-approved and already has 2025 and 2026 foals; Dark For Fun B was licensed in January 2025; Especial For Fun Z is approved across seven studbooks. Approval and auction price are different evidence types from sport, and neither proves that a young offspring will reach five-star level.

Offspring counts are dated, source-specific snapshots and are never totalled: a 2020 owner interview described two early foals plus two embryos left during the sport pause; Hippomundo's 11 March 2025 analysis recorded nine offspring with two aged eight or older, 20% Black Type and one 1.60m horse; the accessible Hippomundo profile in July 2026 simultaneously rendered five offspring / two sport horses / one Black Type horse and eleven offspring / three sport horses, an unreconciled internal page conflict; and the HorseTelex public progeny page named 13 direct offspring from 2008 to 2025 at 4 August 2026. No single lifetime total is published.

Her granddam and broodmare-sire influence remains emergent and runs through Camargo. Cocobelle, Henriette, Caimbel, Come For Fun and Casanova descend through him and are grandchildren, never direct progeny. The maternal family adds independent support: her full brother Flight of Ikarus is classified at 1.60m, and Fetzi also produced Cadoria, the approved Darco For Fun Z, RR Simple and RR Martin Fierro. The next proof stage is the sport conversion of the 2021-2025 crop and the independent performance of Camargo's offspring.

Own record: Retired Hanoverian State Premium mare, five-star Grand Prix winner and Olympic individual top-ten performer. Fit For Fun 13 was foaled on 1 March 2004 in Germany, bred by Sigrid Crome-Sperling, by For Pleasure out of the State Premium mare Fetzi by Fabriano. Ralf Juenger bought her as a weaned foal and retained ownership throughout. At her 2007 mare test, aged three, in foal to Canturo and with limited riding preparation, she scored two 10.0 marks for free jumping and an 8.25 overall average. She then produced Camargo in 2008 and Champ of Fun in 2009 before her competition career was established, showed first at six, made her international debut at seven with Juenger, and in 2012 joined Luciana Diniz under a competition-rights agreement while Juenger kept ownership. She won five CSI5*/CSIO5* Grands Prix: Basel in 2015; the Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix of Doha in 2015, the decisive ride in Diniz's 2015 overall LGCT championship; the Emir's Sword Grand Prix at Al Rayyan on 27 February 2016 in a 33.22-second jump-off; Rotterdam on 26 June 2016, clear in the jump-off in 41.49 seconds; and the Longines Grand Prix of Switzerland at St Gallen on 1 June 2018 as the only combination without penalties over both rounds. She was second in the Rolex Grand Prix of Aachen on 23 July 2017 and again on 22 July 2018, and second in the CP International Grand Prix at the Spruce Meadows Masters on 10 September 2017, where she also won the 1.50m Telus Cup. At championship level she finished ninth individually at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, joint 23rd at the 2014 Longines FEI World Cup Final in Lyon, 50th individually at the 2015 European Championships in Aachen with Portugal 19th in the team classification, and 27th individually at the 2017 European Championships in Gothenburg. The record was achieved for Portugal, and FEI's current rendering of Luciana Diniz with a Brazilian flag, following her later nationality change, must not be back-applied. The previously published claim that she competed at the World Equestrian Games is removed: no verified competitive WEG start was located, and contemporaneous reporting documents her withdrawal from the Tryon programme on 27 August 2018 to protect her after a demanding season. Her maximum level is recorded in two separate ways: FEI classes observed through 1.65m, and a specialist and studbook classification of 1.70m. No 1.70m competition result is claimed. Her last international start was on 17 November 2019, 12th in the Stuttgart CSI5*-W 1.65m World Cup class, after finishing second in a 1.50m Table C on 14 November. She received a formal farewell at CHIO Aachen on 3 July 2022. FEI's snapshot at 4 August 2026 shows 217 starts and 10 wins since 2010 and still labels her Active, which is a stale administrative flag rather than a current competition status.

Elite sport mare into breeding: Rio 2016 individual ninth, five CSI5*/CSIO5* Grand Prix wins and three Rolex Major runner-up results, with two 10.0 free-jumping marks at her 2007 mare test. Retired from sport since November 2019 with a formal Aachen farewell in July 2022. One direct 1.60m approved son in Camargo, plus the approved young sons Vino For Fun, Especial For Fun Z and Dark For Fun B and four young direct daughters. Five direct sons sold publicly for EUR 50,000-165,000 between 2021 and 2025. The target is a verified direct embryo or direct daughter; the sport-age production base is small and most of the crop is still juvenile.
