Olympic Ramiro
Bay BWP stallion foaled in 1991 by Ramiro Z. Official BWP records confirm the Ramiro Z × Voltaire pedigree and list his many registered descendants, including Davina van het Gonnehof.

Dubonnet
The Voltaire daughter who became the dam of Olympic Ramiro and carried the Furioso II branch into Davina van het Gonnehof and the living family behind our horses.
Archive standard: no photograph located was securely identified as KWPN mare 85.3938, so this page does not substitute an image of another horse.

01 · Exact Identity
The Registration Number Ends the Name Confusion
Dubonnet is a name used by more than one sport horse. The mare in our pedigree is the 1985 KWPN liver chestnut registered as 85.3938—not a later mare, stallion or similarly named horse.

Modern pedigree databases commonly expand her KWPN number to 528003198503938. The shorter studbook form, 85.3938, is also repeated in the official Belgian Warmblood pedigree of her son Olympic Ramiro and in later AES pedigrees descending from him.
That number is the vital anchor. It allows this Hall of Fame to distinguish the correct Dubonnet from other horses sharing the name and to follow one continuous documented family.
02 · Pedigree
A Daughter of Voltaire From a Thoroughbred Dam Line
Dubonnet was by Voltaire and out of Notre-Dame, whose sire was the Thoroughbred Exilio xx. The record therefore places both the Furioso influence and additional Thoroughbred blood directly behind the mare.
DamNotre-Dame
KWPN mare · registration 10629
Dam SireExilio xx
Thoroughbred stallion foaled in 1954
This is the generation that follows Voltaire. Dubonnet was his daughter. That simple relationship keeps the family in the correct order: Furioso xx was the Thoroughbred foundation sire; Furioso II was his son; Voltaire was a son of Furioso II; and Dubonnet was a daughter of Voltaire.
03 · The Decisive Mating
When Ramiro Z Met the Voltaire–Furioso II Branch
Dubonnet's importance becomes unmistakable in the mating that produced Olympic Ramiro. Ramiro Z supplied one of Europe's great performance sire lines; Dubonnet supplied Voltaire and Furioso II through the dam side.
Olympic Ramiro
Foaled in Belgium in 1991 · licensed BWP stallion · the direct sire of Davina van het Gonnehof
The official Belgian Warmblood stallion record identifies Olympic Ramiro as Ramiro Z × Voltaire and names Dubonnet 85.3938 within his pedigree. This is not a guessed connection assembled from similar names. It is the studbook-recorded mating behind the stallion.
04 · Recorded Produce
A Broodmare Remembered Through the Horses She Produced
The public record reviewed for this page does not establish a named competition career for Dubonnet. Her documented importance is maternal: she carried an influential bloodline into the next generation.
Quella
Bay BWP mare foaled in 1993 by Ramiro Z. Rimondo, HorseTelex and SporthorseData list her as a full sister to Olympic Ramiro from Dubonnet.
Why the wording is careful: public databases do not all show the same number of Dubonnet's offspring. Olympic Ramiro is the securely documented connection required by our pedigree; Quella is included because multiple specialist databases agree on her identity and parentage.
05 · What the Records Support
No Borrowed Results, Titles or Photographs
A Hall of Fame mare does not need an invented sport career. Dubonnet earns her place through a traceable breeding contribution that reaches living horses on our yard.
Identity Verified
1985 KWPN mare, registration 85.3938, liver chestnut, approximately 165 cm.
Pedigree Verified

Maternal Link Verified
Dam of Olympic Ramiro, the 1991 licensed Belgian Warmblood stallion by Ramiro Z.
Claims Deliberately Omitted
No named rider, competition result, studbook award or secure historic photograph was found for Dubonnet herself.
An online image search returned photographs of unrelated horses and generic showjumpers, while Dubonnet's database profile uses a placeholder. None met the identity standard for this Hall of Fame. The page therefore uses her documented registration as its visual centre rather than presenting another horse as Dubonnet.
06 · The Living Connection
From Dubonnet to Davina, Elizabeth, Maggie and Bella
Dubonnet belongs in this Hall of Fame because the line does not stop at Olympic Ramiro. It continues through his daughter Davina van het Gonnehof into horses bred by Warmblood Horse Sales.

07 · The Furioso Blood Returns
Two Full-Brother Branches Meet in the Same Family
Finishing Dubonnet's page completes the Furioso picture. Davina carries Furioso xx through Furioso II and Voltaire, while Noah carries the parallel full-brother branch through Mexico and Le Mexico.
The Davina Route
Furioso xx → Furioso II → Voltaire → Dubonnet → Olympic Ramiro → Davina
The Noah Route
Furioso xx → Mexico → Le Mexico → Deampla → Branco van Overis → Noah
The branches meet in Elizabeth Diamond and Maggie May.
They are by Noah and out of Davina, so the two sons of Furioso xx return through separate, documented sides of the pedigree.
08 · Why Dubonnet Belongs Here
The Quiet Mare at the Centre of a Great Pedigree
“Some bloodlines travel through famous victories. Others survive because the right mare carries them faithfully into the next generation.”
Dubonnet is not included because the internet has made her famous. In fact, it has preserved very little public biography or imagery of her. She is included because the studbook record proves exactly what she contributed.
She was the Voltaire daughter who produced Olympic Ramiro by Ramiro Z. Olympic Ramiro then sired Davina van het Gonnehof. Davina carried that family into Elizabeth Diamond and Maggie May, and Elizabeth has already carried it forward again through Bella Ragazza.
That is precisely what the Warmblood Horse Sales Hall of Fame is for: not a collection of fashionable names, but an accurate account of the horses—stallions and mares—whose blood genuinely runs through our breeding programme.
