Calato Z, sire of European Champion Cöster! With Calato Z Zangersheide offers you an opportunity to still use a direct Capitol I son who has proved himself. Together with Carthago Z, Cento and Cassini I we may call Calato Z one of the best sons of Capitol I. And from his dam’s side he has inherited excellent genes, with Landgraf I, Calypso I, Rigoletto and lineage 474a. Calato Z himself performed in the international showjumping sport under the Danish Jennifer Fogh Petersen and he was, amongst other achievements, winner of the Danish championships for Young Riders. But Calato’s offspring is even better. His son Cöster was the 2003 winner of the European title, ridden by Christian Ahlmann. In 2010 Christian Ahlmann won another prestigious title with a Calato son. This time it was the World Championship in the 6-yr-olds category with Charles. In addition, Calato is sire of the international Grand Prix jumpers Index (Hauke Luther), Corinessa (Hubert Bourdy) and Callistro (Janne-Fredrike Meyer). We can confidently call Calato not only a true progenitor but also a founder of maternal lineages. The international showjumping horses Commissario (Cash) ridden by Julien Epaillard, Chupa Chup (Caretino) ridden by Bernardo Alves and Karatina (Quantum) ridden by Pénélope Leprévost are all bred out of a daughter by Calato Z.
