About Salah

A total package from the breeding casket of the Stakkato Gold jumper that is hard to beat. Salah's jumping sequence, his movement potential, his type expression - everything is simply ultra-modern and of exceptional quality. The young stallion is clearly a stallion type and impresses with his melting and good movement values. His trot mechanics and his always excellent uphill canter deserve special mention. On the occasion of his licensing in Münster/Handorf, Salah demonstrated his exceptional talent with outstanding ability, lightning-fast reflexes and breathtaking speed in the free-jumping arena and was crowned the second reserve winner of the event. Salah 2022 completed the first part of his stallion test in a fitting manner (jumping score 8.50).

His sire, Stakkato Gold, is one of the silver linings of European show jumper breeding. He himself was successful up to 1.50 m jumping and produced 37 licensed sons and 63 offspring placed in advanced (S) level in Germany alone, which have long since propelled their sire into the circle of progeny profit millionaires. His sporting spearheads include Mario Stevens' DM Gold partner Starissa, Solid Gold (Christian Ahlmann) and Stargold (Marcus Ehning). The latter won the team silver medal at the 2021 European Championships in Riesenbeck and took fifth place in the individual classification at the World Championships in Herning in 2022.

The dam A la Calinca, who is strong in type and movement, passed an outstanding mare performance test and was named the jumping champion mare at the 2015 Westphalian Elite Mare Show. Her sire, the Westphalian champion stallion A la Carte, has made a career in show jumping under Kendra Claricia Brinkop and Marcus Ehning. His vita includes victory in the Grand Prix of Oldenburg and a second place in the Nations Cup of Samorin as well as in the 5* Grand Prix of Amsterdam. Salah's granddam Crystal comes from the often so successfully practiced combination of the exceptional stallions Cornet Obolensky and Pilot. She is the sister of no fewer than four successful show jumpers at advanced level, including Chattanooga, who was licensed in Westphalia and won silver at the World Championships for Young Show Jumpers in Lanaken as a six-year-old under Joachim Heyer and later competed internationally in tests up to 1.60 m.
