Sire Silvermoon

.

CADEAU

Cadeau, who was bred and reared in Denmark, attracted all attention during his stallion approval in Neumunster.

He did not only convince by his beauty and charm, but also by his radiating presentation with important body characteristics which still reflect the background of the highly esteemed dam lineage. His sturdy foundation is endowed with big strong joints, and particularly in his trot he excels with a firm rhythm and well accentuated mechanics, showing good ground cover.

The Sire Silvermoon was a premium stallion of his approval in 1993 and sold to Denmark, where he stood at stud for most of his career. He also showed successfully up to PSG level and later sold back to Germany, where he now stands at stud in Bavaria. He is a grey son of the important Kostolany, one of the breed's currently most versatile and successful sport horse producer. Since Silvermoon's dam is by Mahagoni, this particular stallion is interestingly inbred to that important Anglo Trakehner stallion and dressage producer. Silvermoon's famous dam, the elite mare Suleiken, is also dam of the premium stallion Schampus (by Karon), who left the approved Tipo and several good performance horses, especially in show jumping.

Silvermoon is the sire of WEG 2006 GP Special Champion Mare Blue Hors Matine.

In Cadeau’s pedigree you will find the winning stallion’s Kostalany, EH Bartholdy, Schiwago and EH Mackensen. There are also the reserve winners Arrogno and EH Caprimond, who is truly passing on his type. And the excellent stallions Magahoni and Karon. Last but not least there is Silvermoon, the sire of Cadeau, a successful advanced dressage horse.

In 2003 at the Hessen Approvals Cadeau received the Premium Stallion award.

He was Vice Champion of 4yo Stallions at the Federal Trakehner Horse Show.

In 2005 Cadeau was awarded the title of Elite Candidate.
