Sheer performance
A Holstein performance stallion XXL in size. A quote by Sweden's National Trainer, Henk Nooren concerning Cagliostro: "A show jumper for the decisive championships. He has everything: rideability, intelligence, caution and enormous ability." He started his international career with Rolf-Göran Bengtsson and was later successfully ridden for Sweden by Niklas Arvidsson, winning first and other high placings all over the globe. Cagliostro was often a member of the Swedish National Team and also took seventh place in the Show Jumping World Cup in Leipzig. The end of 2005 Cagliostro also won ribbons with his young Finnish rider, Noora Pentti. In 2006 they competed in World Cups and took third place in the Grand Prix of Ypäjä (Finland) and in Nations Cup as well as third place in the Grand Prix at the CSI Gera and were a member of the Finnish team at the World Championships in Aachen in 2006. Because of his great success in international show jumping, Cagliostro was also approved for Holstein in 2004. Cagliostro's career in breeding began in Sweden where he sired first class show jumpers. Internationally famous riders compete with his offspring such as Bee Wonderfull with Linda Heed and Kensington T, who places internationally under Alexander Zettermann. At the European Championships in Windsor in 2009, Cagliostro went a sensational clear round in the warm-up test.
