On July 27, 2006 Rodioso was presented to the Oldenburg Registry North America and International Sporthorse Registry for approval. He was presented at the stallion inspection at Starr Vaughn Equestrian Center in Elk Grove, California. The scorching record summer temperatures did not seem to have any effect on his lovely performance. He was presented in hand, at liberty and under saddle. He was given a lifetime breeding license based on his performance at the Prix St. Georges level in dressage and as a result his free jump test was waived.
