Carthago Z is the son of Capitol I, one of the great modern Holsteiner
showjumping sires. Unusually for a Holstein jumping sire, Capitol carried
no Cor de la Bryère blood, but he was richly endowed with the
heritage of two great Thoroughbred descendants of the Bay Ronald line
- Cottage Son xx and Manometer xx, he also carried a double cross of
the influential anglo-arab, Ramzes. Capitol I sired Cassini, Campione
(and full brother, Cathleen, ridden by Meredith Michaels - now Beerbaum),
Calato Z, Curtis (Mändli), Cliquot (Kirchof). With an index of
182 he head the FN young jumping stallion ratings. Capitol’s grand
dam Ratina was a Hamburg Jumping Derby with Fritz Thiedemann). His dam,
Folia, showed great jumping potential herself, and produced the licensed
stallions Latus I and II, as well as the two Capitols, and famous daughters
Kausa, Lektion (eventing) and U-Capitola (dam of Lord Capitol).
Folia’s dam, Vase, was a full sister, Romanus who competed with
success with Hans Günter Winkler, despite the horse’s aversion
to water jumps.
The dam sire, Calando I stood at several breeding stations in Holstein
before pursuing a performance career that culminated in a German Championship
with Karsten Huck. After jumping successfully in Luxembourg, Calando
I returned to breeding duties in Holstein.
At his performance test, Carthago Z earned a 9.5 for free jumping and
a 10 for jumping talent!!! Cathago Z finished in 11th place at the Atlanta
Games with Jos Lanskink and the pair were members of the Dutch team
at the Sydney Games. In all the combination competed in 15 Nations Cups.
In 2001, the stallion, who had been leased to Leon Melchior since 1995,
returned to his birthplace in Schleswig-Holstein and the Holsteiner
Verband.
Carthago is already the sire of seven approved sons.
