Latimer has proven to be a true purveyor of the incomparable Trakehner charm. His imposing, dance-like movement and wonderful suppleness, along with his performance-oriented pedigree make him the ideal stallion for many mares. The Grand Prix stallion Saint Cloud, and Elite stallions Caprimond and Sokrates add the utmost possibility for success to a consolidated mother-line. Saint Cloud himself was a rideability Champion with 153 points and was successful up to Grand Prix level. Caprimond, Stallion of the Year in 1998, is also successful at Grand Prix and has been a great "improver" as a dressage horse sire. Granddam Larissa, with her daughters Lara and Lorina, were the winning mare family of the State Show. Larissa is a half sister to the stallion Liebestraum. Latimer completed an excellent Stallion Performance Test, and in 2000 won the Trakehner Championship and the Federal Championship in an outstanding manner. He did so with a never-before-awarded result and the "dream mark" of 10 for rideability and type. Latimer also won the Federal Championship for four-year-old stallions at Warendorf. He is successful to class "M." From his first foal crop, two approved stud colts sold for top prices at the auction. His son Hibiskus won his keuring.
