Caprimond: The Stallion That Revolutionized Modern Breeding and Dressage

Caprimond: The Stallion That Revolutionized Modern Breeding and Dressage

Caprimond, a Trakehner stallion born in 1985, is synonymous with excellence in both horse breeding and dressage.

His influence on modern breeding practices and his enduring impact through his progeny have left a lasting legacy in the equestrian world. In this article we explore the remarkable life of this stallion and the profound mark he left on dressage and horse breeding.

Early Life and Pedigree

Bred by Jürgen Hanke in Hameln, Germany, Caprimond was a striking example of the Trakehner breed. Standing at 167 cm, he combined grace, athleticism, and an unmistakable mahogany bay coat. However, it was his pedigree that truly set him apart.More

He competed on the 2008 and 2012 Olympic teams and won two individual bronzes at the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games (2010).

Ravel was the Adequan/USDF Grand Prix Horse of the Year (2009-2011) and the 2009 USEF Farnam/Platform Horse of the Year and claimed more than 40 Grand Prix victories,

The photos/paintings are so wonderful in themselves, but also gives such an insight, with added dimension, into your horse or pony. I would like to thank all the amazing people who have put so much time, energy, dedication and thought, into this amazing masterpiece "

I have worked on studs in Austalia for about 50 years, the highlight for me was 7 years at Arrowfield, including Danehills first two seasons. All the years spent building my library has found a wonderful resource to share pic's and information about this great creature the horse, much of which would be lost but for this site. I am grateful for being a small part in this great venture."

"SporthorseData is for me the best website for analysing horse pedigrees and results and has helped me specially to have an excellent balance between Thoroughbreds and Warm-bloods for my cross-breeding. It offers lots of features for free but the Professional packages offered are great value and essential if you are serious about breeding horses. SporthorseData's best feature that none of the other databases have can be found on the horse profile page right below the pedigree chart showing the off-spring of the first five dams. With this view it covers the most important information of the horse's family! Being used to seeing Thoroughbred pedigrees going back to 12 generations I was pleased to see that the PEDIGREE-ANALYSIS feature gives me the possibility for TB X WARMBLOOD crosses too! Plus you can see 7 a generation-pedigree on the one page. So useful. Another excellent tool is the TEST MATING tool which allows you to see what your future foal's pedigree will look like. This is the most advanced test mating tool I have seen offering so many options and easy to use. I cannot understand Warmblood breeders who do not know what their future foal's pedigree will look like, how many of the top stallions will be present and where will they be located in the pedigree. I suggest SporthorseData to all my dressage students in the USA, UK and GER. (owners trainers & riders also need to know about the genetic build of their horses) not only the ones who are breeders."

"Having read Kathleen's books along with the additional resources she references throughout, my understanding surrounding genetics and breeding goals has expanded. This allows me to make more informed breeding decisions. In addition to this, the Sporthorse Data website provides many more breeding tools that are not available via other breeding database websites, and the level of information that can be obtained is more detailed. Sporthorse Data is now my go-to website for breeding tools and research. A fabulous asset to any serious breeder."
