Euro Sport Cassini D'Eclipse combines a star studded pedigree of the biggest and most famous names in Holstein.
His sire is the living legend Cassini I, himself a world class show jumper and sire to countless jumping stars. These include Eurocommerce Berlin (Gerco Schroder) and Cumano (Jos Lansink), both World Show Jumping Champions. Of great interest, is the fact that Eurocommerce Berlin is also out of a Caretino mare. This makes him a 3/4 brother to Cassini D'Eclipse!
Cassini D'Eclipse's dam sire is the equally outstanding stallion Caretino. Again Caretino was a champion show jumper himself, going on to be one of the world's most respected sires of both show jumping and dressage horses.
Cassini D'Eclipse's dam is the wonderful young mare S Caretina. S Caretina has just joined the stables of new Belgium Show Jumping Team rider Niels Bruynseels to begin what looks set to be an exciting competition career. And if this wasn't enough S Caretina is no less than a full sister to South Germany's 2004 Stallion of the Year Caretello B! Caretello B had a fantastic competition career, blowing away many with his immense jumping power. Caretello B's progeny have already earned in excess of 1 million euro (2.1million NZD approx) in competition!
Cassini D'Eclipse himself is a stunning young colt with huge presence and athleticism combined with beautiful conformation. At his foal testing in Holstein he received the ranking of 'Premium', the highest given and is gained by only a small number of the best foals.
We have been incredibly lucky to secure this young stallion to present to New Zealand breeders. He is sure to be a future star!
