After winning a series of tests with very high scores for young dressage horses in elementary (L) level and taking third place at the Bundeschampionat, Damsey is now being prepared for the next higher level dressage ring.

Damsey's first crop was impressive. Many of his strong moving, substantial type foals placed among the best at foal shows.  Damsey started his career as the only stallion to receive a premium at the Hanoverian saddle licensing. At his 30-day test in Adelheidsdorf he received a score of 9.25 for rideability – the highest score of all. In 2006, his first show season, Damsey took first or other places in eleven tests for young riding and dressage horses. At the Danish licensing in Herning he became the undisputed Champion Stallion of four-year old dressage stallions

His sire, Dressage Royal, who comes from the performance line of Fasse III, placed in the Bundeschampionat for dressage horses. His very first crop produced Damsey who was licensed and a year later his son Doringcourt / Leonie Bramall / CAN became a premium stallion. According to the latest FN estimated breeding value statistics, Dressage Royal is one of the best German riding horse sires. The dam Ria Grande also gave birth to Damsey's half-sister Daianira vd Helle (by Dream of Glory), who placed in the World Championships final for young dressage horses in 2004 and 2005 under Vicky Smits/BEL and took first places in the short international circuit in 2007.

The dam's sire Ritual sired 14 licensed sons and top horses for all equestrian sport disciplines. Damsey's granddam, St.Pr.St. Grandizza, produced the advanced (S) level driving horse Rosewood (by Ritual) and two State Premium mares, Rituals Praline (by Ritual) and Dea (by De Niro). The granddam's half-sister Tiffany (by Tannenberg) won ribbons in medium (M) level dressage.
