Beautiful mare with everything going for her, nice confirmation, pretty head, expressive paces, rhythm, style and technique.

She is ridden as a Jumper right now and last year jumped in the final of the 5 year olds and in May 2010 she jumped her first 1.30m class and won!

She is brave and careful with a consistent style over the fences, she rides in a nice outline and is comfortable for the rider. She schools and competes in a snaffle and is a safe ride. She is a sports horse so not completely without spirit so would be better suited for a competitive rider, male, female, young or old.

She has been schooled and competed by an amateurish lady and is hacked out by her mother. She is easy to handle in the stable and out and around the yard. She is a good traveller, washes, clips, farrier.. all no problems. Very sweet natured and will go along way in any discipline.

2009 KMK age class 1.20m 

Really sweet guy with great established flat work and easy changes. Rides light in your hand and good off the leg. Very even rhythum and looks great around a course. Could be very well suited to a style class.

He is ridden in a snaffle and is schooled at home by young girls and guys. Mostly competed by the yards competition rider who is a professional male.

Very nice in the stable and easy to handle. Rides out alone or in company.

Great horse to build a solid partnership with as he will give back what you put in.

Jump schooling at home (1.50m) 

Great jumper for riders of all levels. Keeps you safe and loves to jump! He will take mistakes and finds his own way out. Light in the hand and ridden and competed by a girl in a snaffle. Uncomplicated though he likes to have his head at the fence, though at the same time will still listen and shortens and lengthens appropriately.

Jumps better the bigger the fences go but has lots of placings from 1.20m upwards. Even though he is young he is a good teacher for someone with riding experience who wants to work their way up or equally a professional rider will enjoy the careful, quick jump and the results.

He has been off work completely because the rider injured her back so has lost weight and condition.  He is currently on light hay, no hard feed and day turnout.   When we tested him (04/2010) he had not jumped since end of November 2009 but still came out and performed over fences upto 1.30m!  He is a strong agile horse who is fun to ride for anyone. Very good to handle on the ground, travelling and at shows.

2009 CSIO **** 1.45 Class

Stunning horse with superior bloodlines and excellent character. Perfect 4 white socks and blaze.

He was gelded in April 2010 simply for saleability and to help the yard manager as she recently broke her back and needs things to run as easily as possible regarding turn out etc.. was always a good natured stallion and his character remains the same.

Easy and safe. Very light in the hand with expressive even balanced paces. A real eye catcher! 

Shown in the ring over 1.20m courses with good results. He has a lot more to give and is a top class competitior.

Good looking boy who was a dressage horse till 2008 when he was then gelded and started working as a jumper.

He has competed in his first 1.50m class june 2010. He has a loose style but is also nice a scopey so he can be very useful for many disciplines. Now being competed by a 14 year old girl at 1.20m and 1.30m level, she schools him at home over bigger fences. 

Great character, straight forward and eager to please. Very nicely schooled with auto changes, light in the hand and honest. He can have a rail down but will keep jumping and so a great training horse!

Home Schooling June 2010

Gelded 04/2010 very easy to handle sweet in the stable and very safe to ride.  He has been competing 1.20m and 1 x 1.30m class 2009 season and also jumped a 1.80m wall in the mini maxi competition 2009!

Everything with this guy is straight forward he travels and shows with no fuss.

Very easy to the fences and he leads you in nicely. Very nice looking horse with a one in a million character, great for kids and teens.

 mini maxi tournament - 1.80m wall

1.20m competition 2009

Really sweet gelding very easy to do in all ways, if anything he needs a little more leg to keep him active but lots of power over the fences and has been competing successfully in 1.30m and 1.40m classes.

Very nicely schooled with established lead changes and moves nicely off the leg, straight forward ride and fantastic temperament, very genuine horse.

Can ride quiet hence how he could suit someone less experienced.

 Schooling at Home

Gorgeous horse with big scopy jump, active technique and flexibility through the air!

Great horse for a stronger rider, male or female wanting to get placed in 1.30m and 1.40m classes. He also has the scope for 1.50m classes.

At the Adelheidsdorf  2004 Stallion Grading he scored
all together: 108,52 and for jumping: 121,40 accompanied by 42 other stallions.
In 2005 he competed in 4 KMK age class qualifiers, 1 of which he won and another he placed 3rd.  

In 2006 he came 3rd in two KMK classes. He continued jumping in the KMK age classes in 2007 where he won several qualifiers and won the semi-final for 6 year olds and in the final he placed 5th. As a 7 year old he already competed at 1.40m level.

Lovely active paces and powerful off the ground whether your flatting or jumping.  Very impressive guy with real head turning looks and style.  When he is jumping he likes some freedom with his head but is not heavy in the hand and will respond well into the fences.

Breeding Information:

Stakkato created a sensation at his first appearance at the Bundeschampionate back in 1998. So wonderful was his jumping style that the judges wanted to give him a 10 - until one pointed out that one tiny part of the young stallion's tongue was visible on one side of his mouth!!! So they had to settle for a 9.9.

Stakkato comes from an illustrious jumping family - although his sire, Spartan was almost lost to the German breeding industry, having been sold to the United States!
Spartan returned to Germany and passed his performance test with the impressive jumping index of 130.26 (dressage index - 111.41) and an overall score of 122.31. From 1985 until 1991, Spartan stood in Canada and the US, and competed in jumping classes to Grand Prix level with Sasha Himmelmayer. He then returned to Germany to stand at Andreas Mundt's farm in Petershagen, where he is a licensed stallion with the Hannoverian, Oldenburg and Westfalien studbooks.
According to Siefried Putscher: "His children inherited elastic movement, with an energetic push from their hindquarters, excellent ride ability, performance willingness as well as a lot of jumping talent and great intelligence. 'The Spartans learn quickly', that is what you hear in rider circles."

Stakkato is out of Pia by Pygmalion (Patras/Absatz). Pygmalion stood at the Köhler stud in Verden. His sire, Patras was a very noble and strong Trakehner, clearly influenced by Arabian and English Thoroughbred blood.
Stakkato showed his wonderful jumping ability at his Performance Test, recording a jumping index of 144.39, before going to the Bundeschampionate, where his exceptional style produced the 9.9 result under the guidance of Eva-Maria Bitter.

In 2002 and 2003 Stakkato headed the German jumping index. Though a young breeding stallion he already has a breeding value for showjumping of 169, well above proven runner-up Carthago Z (born 1987) with 156 and six sires with a breeding value of 154: Caretino (1983), Contender (1987), Cassini I (1988), Perpignon (1991) and Acorado (1994).

1.20m competition

1.30m ** Competition

Competition

Exciting 8 year old Hanoverian gelding by the world famous Stakkato.
Has experience in the ring up to 1.40m. He is extra careful with tight clean technique. When you push him he can eat up the ground making him very useful in jump offs.
He jumped his first 1.20m class as a 4 year old in 2006 and the following year was given to Czech´s top rider A. Opatrany to compete in the big KMK age classes, where he won the final in the 5 year old 1.20m class. Infact every 1.20m class he jumped in 2007 he either won or placed 2nd! He jumped his first 1.30m class in 2008 as a 6 year old and still managed to come away with a win. Though it sounds that he has done a lot as a youngster all these competitions were carefully selected and were only between 8 and 15 competitions a year. In 2009 is when he really got going with 31 competitions under his belt all 1,20m upwards, including 14 ** events and 4 x 1.40m classes.
Very nice friendly character and easy to handle, travel etc
Straight forward to ride, nice in the hand and easy off the leg. Always coming to the fences and wants to jump!  will go far with a confident rider wanting to succeed in the Jumpers ring.

Super careful horse with excellent character. Very friendly and easy to handle. Really nice to ride, forward going and light and responsive.

He is a very careful, fast horse so he is best suited to a rider with experience of this style of horse and who is used to high levels of competition. A more professional rider will find him very straight forward and very cleaver. He knows his job and has experience in higher profile competitions.

He is in regular competition and has competed in 1.45m classes with a 195cm tall male rider! He is a strong, agile horse with a lot to offer with the right rider he will bring in the ribbons!

 1.45m Competition

Great forward going easy horse. Very light in the hand and rides in a lovely outline. Great character and nicely schooled with auto changes. You just need to sit back and relax with this horse as he does like to bring you to the fence, on the flat he is very straight forward. He does not get on well with strong hands.

He was stallion tested in 2006 and was at stud till 2008 when he started his first competitions and worked upto 1.20m classes.  He placed 4th in the National KMK age class and continued to work up to 1.30m classes in 2009. He has winnings in 1.20m and many placings in 1.30m classes.

He is a lovely mover and has a consistant and strong technique over the fences so we feel he could be trained to be of use in the equitation ring as well as the jumpers.

Really sweet nature on the ground and loves to be around people.
