Radiant champion stallion at the
1998 Main Approval in Bavaria, the highly elegant Clintino
fascinates dressage riders with his quality of movement. He is
supple, with ground-covering gaits, with plenty of impulsion and
exemplary, actively pushing hindquarters. And with his pedigree, he
is blessed with exceptional jumping talents as well. In the first
generations, Clintino has two sires, Caretino and Come On, who have
both won Grand Prix. Granddam, Odina, is the dam of Jan Top's
internationally famous mare, Operette la Silla. Clintino has the
significant dam line (Holstein line 504) in common with the
well-known sires, Cézaro, Literat (stallion approval winner),
Lantaan, Le Matin and Umberto. Clintino passed his stallion
performance test in Neustadt/Dosse where he received scores between
8 and 10 for rideability and jumping qualities. In the meantime he
has won many riding horse tests and has made a successful debut in
show jumping. His first crop was enthusiastically received in
Oldenburg and Bavaria because of their sporty looks and excellent up
and out sequence of movement.
