About Carneval

Carneval is a (died 1985) dark bay Holsteiner showjumping stallion foaled in 1974, by Cor de la Bryere out of a Farnese dam.

Carneval was a Holsteiner stallion, born in 1974, who gained prominence primarily through his influence on breeding rather than through personal competitive achievements. Bred by Michel Magens, Carneval was the progeny of the esteemed Cor de la Bryere and Assa by Farnese. Known for his considerable aptitude in showjumping, Carneval scored 123 in jumping performance tests, indicative of his genetic potential for the discipline.

Despite his limited direct competition record, Carneval's legacy is primarily defined by his contribution to the Holsteiner breed, with a breeding value for jumping noted at 134 in 1992. Licensed by the Holsteiner studbook, Carneval later moved to Belgium in 1980. He exhibited traits of 'dominant springing capability' and 'energetic movement pattern', although he was not approved by the SBS registry. It is reported that he passed away in 1985, but further details of his death remain unspecified.

While Carneval himself may not have sired offspring that achieved notable results at elite competition levels such as 1.50m–1.60m showjumping events or CSI5* circuits, he left a lasting impact on European sport horse breeding. His influence is particularly observed through his female progeny, who have played pivotal roles in breeding and producing subsequent generations with significant potential in showjumping.

Carneval died in 1985. Breeding may continue via frozen semen — confirm availability with the stud.
