Sire Line
Carentino
The Holstein champion stallion of 1980 Caletto II, is an almost perfect personification of the Holstein breeding goal: Noble and expressive in type, long-bodied, with correct conformation, excellent basic gaits and exceptional jumping ability. Caretino's dam Isidor is a cousin of Marengo via Metellus and is furthermore, a great-grandchild of the famous sire of show jumpers Manometer xx. Aldato in the third generation was a highly successful sire of broodmares.
Caretino convinced at his stallion performance test, primarily by his superb jumping ability, for which he was awarded the scores of 9.0 and 9.5 and which was corroborated by the score of 9.0 for "general performance". In 1989 he won the Holstein Show jumping Championships, thereby qualifying himself for the German Federal Championship in Mannheim, where he won a competition. In 1990 he already attained his first placements in advanced show jumping competitions. After that, Caretino had international successes under Bo Kristoffersen, coming fourth with the Danish team in the 1992 Nation's Cup in Gera. He moreover achieved a total of 40 placements, both nationally and internationally in 1992, together with his rider Bo Kristoffersen. Caretino and Bo Kristoffersen once again made the headlines in 1993. Then, in early 1994, Caretino was taken over by Ludger Beerbaum, with whom he also achieved great international successes.
Caretino belongs to the established circle of sires of the Holstein Breeder's Association. He is one of the most manifold sires of his breed, providing promising offspring of the highest standards, equally well for dressage and show jumping. This has placed him in a high position in the FN breeding value rating. His son Carpaccio won the 1994 stallion performance test in Medingen and is successful in dressage competitions. The approved stallion Concord has had advanced level dressage wins up to Grand Prix. Cheenook and Caretello B have likewise developed into first class makers of show jumpers. The better known showjumpers by Caretino include Ballerina 124, Cathleen W, Caresino, Celestino R, Charett. Charlottenhof' s Chandra, Easter 2, Pikeur Carlo Cassini, as well as the approved stallions Caretano Z and Caridor Z (both with Jos Lansink). Ballerina, ridden by Markus Merschformann, belonged to the victorious German team at the European Show jumping Championship in Mannheim in 1997 and Charlottenhof's Chandra was ridden by Soren von Ronne in the German Nation's Cup team. The Caretino son Cockney was the federal champion six-year-old dressage horse in Warendorf in 1997. under the saddle of Nadine Capellmann and is meanwhile enjoying successes up to Grand Prix. In 1998 Caretino was the sire of the Bavarian approvals winner Clintino, who is covering in Oldenburg. A total of 31 sons have been approved so far and 20 daughters have been awarded the state premium.

Dehn) and U-Capitola, the dam of the approved stallion Lord Capitol.

Winkler between 1959 and 1965 (e.g. placed in the European Championships three times). Capitol is the sire of many international top showjumpers like e.g. Corso (W. Melliger, Switzerland), J.R. Number One (USA), Caruso Rex, Calle and Cincinatti (W. Peters), who is the dam of the young stallion Coriall.
