About Genau So
Genau So is a modern, refined and expressive young mare with an international elite pedigree that combines some of the world's most influential dressage bloodlines.
She was bred by Klosterhof Medingen in Germany by the award-winning dressage stallion Global Hope out of Famosica, a mare bred by Jens Kvist. Famosica was sold as a foal to Klosterhof Medingen, where she later became part of their breeding programme. With the purchase of Genau So, part of this valuable mare family has returned to Denmark.
As part of Stutteri Just JK's vision to continue Jens Kvist's breeding legacy, Genau So was brought home in November 2024. She represents the next generation of the renowned Bottie Mare Family – Merrielijn 52 – Fokfamilie 29.
