About Cardenio 2

Cardenio 2 is a Chestnut showjumping stallion foaled in 1997, by Coriano out of a Aloubé Z dam.

Cardenio 2 is a Holsteiner stallion born in 1997, known for his notable performance in showjumping before an untimely injury curtailed his competitive career. He is a chestnut stallion approved in Neumünster, and his pedigree features Coriano as the sire and Eileen VIII as the dam. Cardenio 2 was leased to the state stud Radegast in Sachsen-Anhalt for three years, demonstrating extraordinary abilities in his stallion testing with a strong focus on jumping.

Although Cardenio 2's competitive career was short-lived following an injury sustained at Ravensburg, he showed considerable promise early on, securing a 6th place in an S*** class at the CSI Neustadt-Dosse in 2006. This early success, coupled with his distinguished pedigree, has made him a significant sire within the showjumping community, boasting a breeding index of 146 for jumping as reported in 2009.

Cardenio 2's lineage traces back to influential sires in sport horse breeding. His grandsire on the paternal side, Corrado I, marks a prominent figure known for producing top-level sport horses. The dam line is equally distinguished with Aloubé Z, further solidifying Cardenio 2's pedigree as a prime contributor to the Holsteiner breeding lines.

Cardenio 2's progeny have shown considerable potential in showjumping, with his offspring performing well in S-Springen classes. His ability to pass on superior jumping traits is evidenced by daughters excelling in mare tests in Brandenburg. A son of Cardenio out of a Brandenburger mare distinguished himself by becoming a Superior Champion stallion at approvals in Neustadt-Dosse.
