About Calcio

This highly modern and thoroughbred-typed Cassini I son has a convincing top line, faultless conformation, good gaits and an energetic push-off at the jump with lots of rubber, a good bascule and enormous ability. Calico took his 30-day test in Neustadt/Dosse in 2006 and, as expected, his scores for rideability, his canter and ability to jump were excellent. Proof of his ability to perform required for licensing was furnished by qualifying for the 2008 Bundeschampionat. Calico has won many tests for young show jumpers up to medium (M) level and placed with the best at advanced level. In the meantime, he gleams under Tobias Meyer in international arenas (S***), achieved placings, amongst others, in Arnheim/NED, Lampechtshausen/AUT, Linz/AUT and Nörten-Hardenberg. You see his elegance and noble looks in his foals and with their light-footedness and sporty appearance, they know to convince. Many of the foals from his first crops were awarded premiums in different breeding areas from various German Verbands.

Until now, he presented three premium awarded licensed sons: Chelsea London became  Reserve Champion of the 2010' Weser-Ems licensing and Comissar Calico received a premium at the 2010 Mecklenburg licensing in Redefin. In 2013, he presented the premium stallion Cannon at the OS licensing in Vechta. Now, the eldest offspring are successful in advanced (S) show jumping classes and gifted his sire the very good breeding value in jumping of 133 points according to FN's estimated breeding value statistics. In 2013, the Calico son named Calino placed fourth at the Bundeschampionat for five- year old show jumpers under Hendrik Dowe.
