Also, on a more serious note - one of the greatest dressage horses to ever grace the face of the earth. I feel compelled to do a model of this fellow too. What an athlete! I love the theme music to his routine - King Arthur! One of my favorites. Totilas reputedly has trekhaner blood in his background - (a breed which was developed from akhal teke root stock.) I'm glad to see that other types of warmbloods besides hannoverians are making a splash in the dressage world.

Although purebred tekes don't have as much lift in the limbs, they are very light and have a lot of "floating" air time in their dressage movements. Grom is a good example.
