Sire Line
Carpalo
The sire, Carpaccio, won his stallion performance test. He was a finalist of the Bundeschampionat for five-year old dressage horses in Warendorf and was again qualified in the following year. Nine of Carpaccio's sons have been approved for breeding, among them the Holsteiner Champion Chico's Boy, the 3S Reserve Champion Cabardino N, Eurocommerce Washington/Wim Schrbder/NED, who qualified for the Bundeschampionat, and the stallion performance use winner Casparino, who had successes in dressage up to Intermediate 1 level tests under Hubertus Schmidt. Successful jumpers sired by Carpaccio are Ijabri/Tobias Bachl, Classic Line/Cora Ackermann-Ripke and Catatani/Anna Maria Benner. 24 daughters of Carpaccio received the State Premium. Carpalo's fan. Gamma II, is a daughter of Roderik, who used to be an international show jumper. Coriander, who appears in the third generation, was a highly saccessful dressage horse. He was trained by Peter Mohr up to the advanced (S) level and was later on successfully ridden by Wolfgang Schade up to Grand *ZJ Special. Coriander is a very versatile sire, just like his own sire, Coriolan. The pedigree is complemented by the approval winner Wildfeuer. Bloodline 2)65 also produced the internationally successful sports horse Comtessa/Christian Ahlmann.
Carpalo came overall third at his stallion performance test in Neustadt/Dosse in 2001, winning the partial index for jumping in a com-ncnding manner. He won a series of tests for young jumpers at the novice (A), elementary (L) and intermediate (M) levels and was a successful Bundescham-VHiat contestant in 2003 and 2004. At the Bundeschampionat in 2004, Carpalo won the consolation round of six-year old show jumpers. In the meantime, K has had continuous successes in advanced (S) class competitions under Tilo Miiller.
As a three- and four-year-old, Carpalo covered on a leasehold basis at the Moritzburg State Stud. His offspring from this service period achie-tei placings in the Saxon Foal Championship. In 2003, he returned to his home breeding area, Holstein, but recommenced his service for the Saxon State Stud a 2004. He has meanwhile advanced to become a truly influential sire in the Southeast of Germany. Six of his sons have been licensed for breeding to date. tbe eldest of his progeny are successful in tests for young riding horses and young jumpers and have earned him a high breeding value in the statistics for BCSS of show jumpers. In 2006, his daughter Seekonigin won the contest for halfbreds in the Broodmare Championships of Saxony and Thuringia.
Caretino
By Cheenook [Caretino], ex Glorieux Mare. This sure fire star of tomorrow is a real bonus for British breeding. He combines excellent floating paces with an extravagant, correct and careful technique over a fence.
2002 - Qualified for second rounds in Discovery and Newcomer classes, and at four years classes in Style and Performance - completed 12 double clears in Newcomers. In the YHE he scored an Impressive 9.5 and 9.0 in the loose jumping, with a spectacular double 9.5 in the ridden jumping for technique and temperament. The first time that two 9.5's had been awarded.
2003 - Qualified Newcomers and Foxhunter 2nd rounds, Milton Festival five years Style and Performance.
2004 - Qualified Foxhunter, Star Spotters and 1.25m. His jump is with outstanding technique and scope, he combines this with elastic suspension in his paces, being very elevated and correct, he learns well due to his intelligence. Approved with SHB [GB] & AES.
Caretino brings his excellent breeding to the U.S.! This medium sized stallion with very strong, short back and small ears has proven to Fox Fire Farm that he is quickly becoming one of the most important sires in the Holstein breed. Just reading his statistics confirms it. Already the producer of 18 stallion sons and 114 daughters, twelve of them State Premium. Caretino is convincing proof of good breeding. His sire Caletto II was the most important son of Cor de la Bryere.
What is astonishing about Caretino is his ability to throw such unbelievable movement and jumpability. He has approved sons, Cheenook, Carpaccio and Cockney all who are some of the best movers we have ever seen in the Dressage ring. Caretinos' daughter, Ballerina is a current international jumping sensation. Caretino won his 100 Day Test and moved on to win the German Championships in Mannheim under Bo Kristoffersen. Under Ludger Beerbaum he continued his outstanding career until retired to stud.
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).
Capitol I
Capitol I is a real rarity in the ranks of Holstein stallions - a show jumping sire, whose name begins with ‘C’ who is not related to Cor de la Bryère! Nor for that matter, is he related to that other pillar of Holstein breeding, Landgraf. Indeed, there is quite some speculation as to whether his pedigree is an accurate reflection of reality!!
There is no doubt on his matrilineal line for he is the product of one of those legendary mares on which studs are built. In 1960, a wayward mare, Rappel was saved from the knackery by Rheder Thormählen, a breeder from a family which had lived on the Kollmaran marsh for 500 years, where they had evolved the breeding, riding and selling of horses throughout that time. Rappel who was by Heinzelmann, had made herself unpopular by jumping out of paddocks, and was still jumping at the age of 23 when she won an elementary show jumping class! Herr Thormählen did not know it at the time but Rappel had an earlier foal, by the influential Arabian bred, Ramzes, who as Romanus had won the Grand Prix of Rome with Hans Günter Winkler.
Ten years later, Rappel presented Thormählen with another Ramzes foal, this time a filly, Vase - who went on to be champion mare of Holstein. Vase’s full-brother, Roman topped the German show jumping standings for two years running with Hans-Gunter Winkler. Vase’s daughter, Folia, by Maximus (himself an Advanced show jumper), foaled five stallions: Latus I and II (both by Landgraf), and then Capitol - who was by Capitano out of Retina (also by Ramzes) who had won the Hamburg Derby with Fritz Thiedemann in the saddle.
The query as to Capitol’s antecedents has been raised in an article by Gabrielle Mohmann-Pochhammer (the editor of the German magazine, St Georg) in an article in Horse International (No 5, 2001).
According to Ms Pochhammer while it is recorded that Capitol’s sire Capitano, is out of Retina, and by Corporal, this may not be the case. "On paper the bay Corporal was the sire of Capitano, but even when the stallion was still alive, doubts about the pedigree kept surfacing. This was because Capitano was a grey who dominantly passed on his colour, and is said to have produced only a few chestnut foals. But homozygous greys usually have two greys as parents. At the time in question, a young grey stallion, Vase’s son, Grand Vicar, a brother of Folia, had been frolicking with Retina in the paddock. If the suspicions, which were never substantiated by appropriate genetic tests, are true, then Capitol would be the product of intensive in-breeding, and Ramzes’ blood would be in his genes via Retina and Vase, and a third time via his grand-sire. But we will never be sure about that…"
The yearling Capitol I was bought by the Holstein Verband, and he soon established himself as one of the great show jumping sires, represented Internationally by jumpers such as Corso (ridden by the Swiss, Willi Meliger), JR Number One (exported to the United States), Caruso Rex, Calle, and most notably of recent times, Cento, a team gold medallist at the Sydney Games, and who missed out of an individual medal by just one rail!
Capitol I’s full-brother, Capitol II was initially rejected by the licensing commission but was approved on the basis of his performance as a show jumper. In 1993 he presented his first crop of foals, and most of them were bay - which perhaps adds strength to the argument about his older brother’s sire not being Capitano! If further proof was needed, Capitol II is not listed at all in the WBFSH standing for 2000/2001 (nor for that matter in the standings for the past 10 years), while his ‘brother’ has pride of place - number one in the standings with 38 progeny gaining points!!!
Capitol I foundation sire in Holstein stud book is sire of Calato,Cassini, Carthago, one of the top foundation sires at the moment (2005) in Holstein. He produces top sport horses for jumping and dressage and top stallion sons for jumping and dressage. stallion sons are Cheenook, Concorde, Carnando, Carpaccio (dressage horses) Caretano, Carridor, Caretello, for jumping international sport horses Chandra, Soeren Von Roenne rider – (Balarina.) Crocodile Dundee ridden by Markus Merschformanan international jumper.
Calypso I
The French stallion Cor de la Bryere became a foundation sire of modem Holstein breeding: Among his progeny there are successful stallions such as Calando I, Caletto I and Caletto II, Calypso I-V, Corvado,Cantaresand Cinzano and top-class mares (e.g. Cordeka, Chanel) and above all versatile performance horses, e.g. Chica W, CalandoPS (showjumping), Cor de Calypso, Contrast (eventing), Corlandus (dressage). Calypso's dam also produced the approved stallions Calypso Il-Vwho are all top sires - or at least they are going to be top sires. Calypso II and III are winners of advanced showjumping competitions. Their brother Cor de Calypso, who was not approved, became a successful eventing horse. Via Tabelle'sfull-sister Salmei the granddam Hyazinthe is also granddam to the exceptional dressagehorse Grana t(Chr.Stuckelberger,Switzerland). Hergreat-grandson Calgary won the National Eventing Horse Championships in Verden in 1990 (H. Blbcker).
Calypso I sired 13 approved stallions by 1990. Carprilli and mainly Columbus have already been very successful at stud. Among his 47 state premium mares the most outstanding mare is Zinnia: winner of the Holstein Championships of Materialpferde, champion mare of the 1988 elite-mare show in Elmshom, winner of her class atthe German Show in Verden in 1990. His most successful competition horses atthe moment are: Cabinett 3 (showjumping, D. Schroder, winnings about DM 100,000, i.a. placed in the German Showjumping Derby) and Commodore 7 (dressage, W. Aigner, winnings over DM 75,000, many times successfully competing in Grand Prix and Grand Prix Special). In 1989 Camaro 21 was placed in 10 advanced showjumping competitions, Caprice 46 won her first PrixSt. Georges at the age of 8. Caspar won the National Championships of 6-year-old German Showjumpers.
