Donatelli is by the excellent breeding stallion Donnerhall, who combined a sports career at Grand Prix level ridden by Karin Rehbein with a remarkable breeding performance, including more than 40 approved sons. Donatelli's damsire is the stallion Pik Bube I, also known as a stallion producing dressage horses. In the third and fourth generation we find the valuable bloodlines of Graphit and Daimyo. The success formula of Donnerhall and Pik Bube I we also see in the pedigrees of Davingon, Don Primero, Duntroon, Da Vinci, Dream of Glory, Domburg, Donnerbube and Don Pikado. Dam Granny's Girl is a full sister to the Oldenburg approved stallion Placido. Donatelli's motherline starts with the mare Fusion (v. Frustra II). This line produced also the approved stallions Picard, Dobrock (both at Celle), Daimler, Picadilly (both at Hannover), Grandus (at Zweibrücken) and Lanthanid (in Denmark), as well as the Olympic horse Prestige with Franke Sloothaak. Donatelli had an outstanding 100 day Performance Test at Neustadt-Dosse in 1997. He was "Leistungsklasse I" with a total-score of 121,26 points. For the dressage elements he obtained high marks for walk: 9, trot: 9, canter: 9 and for his character he got a 10! Although Donatelli has a pedigree for dressage, he also showed jumping talent with scores of 7 and 8 for these elements. Donatelli had an extremely good sire's debut, due to his oldest offspring. His son Dynamico became premium stallion at the Oldenburg stallion show, his daughter Djerba was sold very expensively in the Oldenburg Auction and Donatorio won the "Materialprufung". In 2001 his very beautiful son Divertimento was approved. Donatelli himself won 5 times in the S-class in Germany and was fifth in his first Prix St.Georges competition. Donatelli is approved for Oldenburg, Hanoverian, Westphalian, KWPN Register A, Canadian and  Rheinland Pfalz-Saar International (RPSI).
