Castino was described at the Holstein licensing as a magnificent stallion with an impressive athletic build, perfect conformation, an expressive face and a modern habitus. Castino is, in fact, a powerful horse with an extraordinarily scopey jump and a consistently excellent technique. He’s a dynamic mover and an athletic bundle of energy with a powerful yet well-balanced leg action. This young stallion has the potential for a fantastic sporting and breeding career! Sire Cassini II’s offspring have accumulated total lifetime earnings of over EUR 145,000 and 20 of his offspring are successful 1.50 m show jumpers. Maternal grandsire Caretino has produced countless top-level competition horses and his progeny have already won over EUR 2.8 million in prize money. Castino’s dam is a state premium mare who received the perfect 10.0 for jumping in her mare performance test. Castino’s full brother Carenzo is also an approved stallion, while another full brother Carino qualified for the 2008 World Cup final. Carino is an international show jumper competing for the USA. Castino’s dam line is Holstein 5951, which has also produced the famous show jumping horse sire Moltke, plus approved stallions such as Quadrigo and many successful competition horses. Castino’s pedigree is refined with thoroughbred blood from Koenigspark xx.
