Koriander
s sire Contender is with more than forty licensed
sons in Holstein, Hanover, Westphalia and Oldenburg
one of the most influential progenitors of german
showjumping horse breeding. Koriander was bred in
Holstein by the famous breeder Uwe Bahlmann. From
the same dam’s line as Koriander his father Paul
Bahlmann bred the legendary progenitor Ramiro Z in
1965 with wich Fritz Ligges was internationally
successful in jumping. Koriander is a product of the
famous mare Ira II ( Moltke I ) . Besides Koriander
this Holstein mare from lineage 776 produced the
international showjumping horse Tatjana ( Lorenz )
under Luciana Diniz and the licensed stallions
Lysander ( Landgraf I ) and Lausitz J ( Lorenz ).
Ira II is also on record as grandma to the stallion
lord Incipt ( lord x Ronald ) who jumped
successfully himself at international level under
Hauke Luther. Korinder’s dam’s line goes back vis
the stallions Marlon xx, Logenschlieber, Fanal and
Elegant to the famous Wahnfried daughter Olga.
Koriander has fully lived up to the high
expectations established during his performance
test. He was later very successful in national sport
under Jenny Zoer. And in breeding Koriander is just
as succesful. His first seasons produced an unusual
percentage of offspring who are successful in sport
such as the fantastic jumper O’Lady.
