At

Bred by Gestut Lindenhof, Distelzar is a radiant bay
licensed stallion with three superb gaits. The second
highest price was 375,000 DM paid for Konradi, a bay
stallion bred by Walter Gerke. Konradi, by Charly Chaplin
x Arogno, is moving to a dressage stable in Bremen.
The chestnut stallion Prêt-à-porter produced
a 320,000 knock down price. Descending out of the Ivernel

by Klosterhof Medingen itself. The chestnut was an 1c
premium stallion at the licensing in Neumünster, 2000.
The P-family of the Klosterhof has produced numerous
amounts of approved stallions as well as several very
successful sports horses, for example Prätorious, who
won the German Eventing Championships in 1986. The beautiful
dark bay Kapriolan was bred on the farm of Otto Langels,
who already raised the Olympic medallist Peron. Sired
by Exclusiv x Enrico Carusa, Kapriolan was worth 300,000DM.
The average price for a Trakehner youngster at the
