Stakkato, Hanoverian Stallion of the Year 2007
October 29, 2007
 The Spartan x Pygmalion-son Stakkato has been
proclaimed "Hanoverian Stallion of the Year 2007".
On the occasion of the 2007 Hanoverian Stallion Licensing,
the Hanoverian Society and the R + V insurance company
honoured his
breeder August Meyer from Uenzen with the Wohlklang-statuette
and a cheque. Stakkato is an active breeding stallion
for the Celle State Stud, but also an active international
competition horse under Eva Bitter.
Stakkato
was born on April 4, 1993 on August Meyer's farm in
Uenzen, Germany. Andreas Mundt raised him and presented
him at the stallion licensing in autumn 1995. The fantastic
lines of Servus and Gotthard are combined in his sire's
pedigree. His dam Pia successfully competed up to elementary
show jumping level. At her mare performance test, her
jumping skills were judged with the perfect score of
10. Stakkato presented exceptional and spectacular
free jumping skills in Verden so that Dr. Burchard
Bade purchased him for the Celle State Stud. He was
the best jumper at his stallion performance test. He
won the Federal Championships of German show jumpers
in Warendorf in 1998 and developped into the best show
jumping stallion in the Hanoverian breeding area. In
1999, he earned the vice championship title. Four years
later, the bay stallion won the German Champi-onship
in the ladies' division under Eva Bitter. Apart from
countless international top placements, Stakkato competed
five times for the German Nation's Cup team. One of
his outstanding successes was this year's second place
at the highly renowned Nörten-Hardenberg Grand
Prix.
The Celle State Stud Stallion passes on his fantastic
jumper qualities to his offspring. Rückenwind
with Holger Wulschner, Sambuca with Eva Bitter or Stritzel
with the Bulgarian rider Angel Njagolov are successful
international competition horses. The four-year-old
Sicerto is the youngest of his successful offspring.
He won the Hanoverian Show Jumping Championships under
Oliver Ross. 188 of his offspring are active sport
horses, 17 sons are approved stallions and 26 daughters
awarded state premium mare. He supplied 45 foals for
foal auctions and 10 offspring for elite riding horse
auctions. He has been among the top-class horses of
the breeding evaluation of the Hanoverian Society and
the German Equestrian Federation for years.
