Dam Line
Carthago
Seven Capitol offspring qualified for the Federal Championships of Showjumpers in Verden in 1992 including Carthago and his full-sister Cover Girl. On the one hand this emphasizes the importance of Capitol as a sire of showjumpers, but on the other hand it shows the quality of Perra as a dam of performance horses. Her sire Calando I was an international showjumper himself (ridden by K. Huck and E.H. Clipper/Belgium) and enjoys a good reputation as a sire of showjumpers (e.g. the Olympic horse Careful/E. Blaton). Perra also produced the competition-proven Lord Calando (by Lord), who presented his first approved sons, and the state premium mare Diamond Lady. The great-granddam Fangelika (by Consul, the sire of Granat) produced the showjumper stallion Celio and the successful advanced showjumper Ulika J. Via Calando I Fangelika is the granddam of the young stallion Cascavelle. The dam-line has number 162 as in many other outstanding Holstein performers: e.g. the eventer Santiago (H. Rethemeyer), the international dressage horse and former top-priced lot Sando Khan (K. Husenbeth), the Grand Prix dressage horse Marquis (I. von Wendorff) and the current top-winner of Holstein, the jumping stallion Lacros (D. Schroder).
His special ability was already obvious at the stallion performance test. He scored 9.5 for loose jumping and 10.0 for jumping ability in training - results that are not often achieved. Thanks to his remarkable jumping ability he entered the finals of the 1992 Federal Championships in Verden (ridden by B. Kristofferson).
