A smart bay filly by Champion and Elite Stallion Caprimond.

Schwebenreise was born in May 2006 and is a captivating little filly. She has inherited her sire's beautiful head and conformation and is very charismatic. She has suberb Trakehner type.

She is showing excellent movement and is very sweet natured and inquisitive. To make 16.2 hands.

 

EH Caprimond was the 1998 Trakehner Stallion of the Year and is an exceptional stallion with an excellent career as both a performance horse and a sire. His pedigree is outstanding, not only through the sire side, which contains phenomenal stallions like Arogno, Flaneur, Ibikus, Mackensen, and Herzbube, but also through his grandmother, Coeur-As, a full sister to Uwe Sauer's Grand Prix horse, Caro Bube.

Caprimond was reserve Champion of his keuring, Champion of his stallion test and reserve winner of the Bundeschampionat for three year old riding horses. After Caprimond's Championship at the Adelheidsdorf test in 1988, he began his dressage career, and was very successful at the "S" level by seven years of age. In 1996 he achieved the first of several Grand Prix wins. The Elite Caprimond is valued for siring talented, rideable offspring with beautiful heads and necks, and may be considered as a type useful for refinement.  He is ranked the number one sire of "type" for Hanoverian mares, a typical Trakehner "improver." Of Caprimond's twelve approved sons, Hohenstein has also risen to be one of the most sought after stallions in Germany, and was 2002 Trakehner Stallion of the Year. Other sons have also earned top marks at stallion performance tests, demonstrating the rideability and trainability of their sire's dominant dressage genetics. Caprimond's daughter's include Donaumaerchen II, best three-year-old mare at the Federal mare show in Warendorf in 1994. The success of Donaumaerchen I and II as broodmares, has secured Caprimond a special position in breeding, with a top breeder's value of 138 points.  

Her dam Schweben is a graded and performance tested 16.3hh Trakehner mare. Schweben is by Maestro whose Grandsire is the well renowned stallion Donauwind. Her damsire is the popular foundation stallion Patron who can be found in the famous stallion Elite H Caprimond pedigree. Schweben comes from the very valuable mare family O35A3 Schwedenmadel.

Schweben is a big moving mare with an superb hind leg action. She scored excellent marks at her grading and her outstanding movement was rewarded with an 8.5 for her walk, 7.5 for trot and 8 for canter. She passed her performance test with ease and was then retired to stud duties.
