Both
german top horses at the world equestrian festival in Aachen
2006 were out of the SANDRO /Gepard line!!
Shutterfly by Silvio in jumping,and
Satchmo
by Sao Paulo in dressage!
One of
the few lines, which produce horses for jumping and dressage
in the same quality!
This is
underlined by “Sandro Boy” (Markus Ehning) by Sandro and by
“Sundance” (Franke Sloothaak) by Sandro Song in jumping, and
by the most exciting dressage stallion “Sandro Hit” by
Sandro Song. Sandro Song is the grandsire of Shogun.
His
dam, the premium mare “Locarno Loretta’ had herself the
potential of an international horse, and got excellent marks
for jumping and movement.
She is
by “Rabino”, a son of “Ramiro”, a
century – stallion, and
sire of such international horses like Olympic silver
medal winner “Ratina”
“Royal
Bravour” and “Ninette”. Calypso 2 by cor de la Bryere
is the sire of “Contender”, sire of “Checkmate”, ”Collin”,
“Montender” and other international horses.

In 3rd
generation we find “Lord” (Holstein), sire of international
horses in jumping (Livius) and dressage (Larius). He was for
many years in the top rankings of international jumping and
dressage!
“Shogun” comes out of one of the best dam lines in Europe,
Holstein line 474a.,wich produced stallions like “Calato”
(sire in European Champion “Coester” and others), N-Aldato
in the Netherlands, “Royal Cavalier” in Ireland (Nr. 9 in
world jumping ranking 2006),Loxgraf go In the USA.
Shogun
stands at 1.72 and combines type, good movement, and
unlimited scope and excellent technique in jumping. (Marks
with licensing: walk 8.5,trot 7.5,canter 8.0,jumpng ability
8.5,technique 7.5) He has a very good temperament, and
offered flying changes after being few weeks under the
saddle. His foals are noble, dominantly in his dark
bay colour, with good movements and promising jump.
