True to his pedigree, Figaro B shows exceptional talent for both dressage and show jumping. A powerful jumper, with beautiful movement Figaro B should shine in both arenas. Adding a "10" temperament to his talent and good looks, Figaro B should be an important stallion in the future.  Figaro B made his Pre-Green Hunter debut with Rick Harris of Hunter's Bluff Farm in the fall of 2009 at the Texas Rose Classic.Figaro B took home a 2nd, two 3rds, a 6th and an 8th in large Pre-Green Hunter classes.  He also placed 2nd in the Hunter Classic.  Fig continued his winning ways in the High Pre-Greens at the Great Southwest Fall classic and was Pre-green Champion in Folsom. Figaro B  is owned by Bobburk Farm and will stand at Rising Star Farm.  His first foal (2009) was premium. 
     Figaro B's sire, Pavarotti vd Helle has consistently produced offspring at the highest levels of both dressage and jumping competition including Quintus who placed 10th at the Beijing Olympic Games in showjumping.. Pavarotti himself was the reserve champion of the jumping test for Rheinland and Westfalen as well as the BWP. Following a trailer accident, Pavarotti became a champion dressage performer. The descendants of Pavarotti are notable for their good looks. As well, they combine super movement with excellent jumping technique. Figaro B's grandsire, Pilot is without doubt the best Westphalian producer of jumpers. Pilot has produced about thirty Grand Prix horses including Priamos, Bugatti Pedro, Piro, and Panama. Damsire Wellington was reserve champion of the stallion testing in 1983 and went on to place 3rd in the National stallion competition in 1985, 2nd in the 1987 competition, and 1st in the stallion competition category C. He also starred in dressage at Z-level and jumped nationally. He earned his "keur" predicate by siring many "ster" and "keur" mares, and approved stallions like Emilion, Farrington, and Glennridge. He has also sired many international show jumpers like VDL Jupiter, Jerome, SP Deka and What a Game. Wellington has also sired top dressage horses like Bolvorms Ceylon and Luxaflex.
