Verb.Pr.St Raissa is an exciting new edition to Whispering Pines Stable. She is a 16:3h dark bay Oldenburg Verbands Premium mare. Raissa is by the legendary Rubinstein I who was regarded as one of the most accomplished contemporary dressage sires. Rubinstein who passed away at the early age of 14 had already accomplished 40 wins at Grand Prix level, was a member of the 1996 Olympic team, sired 89 state premium mares and 66 approved stallions and was the father of top auction horses and Grand Prix winners.

Raissa's dam, St.Pr.St. Rikki V, continues back to the renowned Oldenburg Rikki lineage. Raissa's damsire, Bucephalos xx, was established as a Dressage Sire of highest class.

Raissa not only has outstanding bloodlines, we've been told that she is a wonderful mother, and she is such a sweet, and kind mare. We are very excited for a 2007 Prinz Habicht foal from this lovely mare.
