 Kostolany Stallion of the year |
Neumünster (Julia Martin) - The Hämelschenburger Trakehner stallion Kostolany has been proclaimed Trakehner Stallion of the Year 2009 and he will be honoured for his achievements in the breeding world at the 2009 Trakehner Stallion Licensing October 22 - 25, 2009, in Neumunster, Germany.
Bred by Otto Langels and owned by Beate Langels of Gestüt Hämelschenburg in Emmerthal, Germany, Kostolany is by Enrico Caruso out of Kapstadt (by Falke x Ibikus x Impuls). The black stallion was born in 1984 and became the licensing champion in 1987. The Trakehner verband praises the Kostolany offspring for their character, rideability and versatility in show jumping and dressage. Kostolany sired nine licensed sons, including Licensing champion Gribaldi which has been successful at international Grand Prix level under Edward Gal. Gribaldi sired Anky van Grunsven's second Grand Prix horse Painted Black and Tosca Visser's Totilas, the current European Dressage Champion and world record holder. Kostolany also produced reserve licensing champions Hofrat and Hoftänzer. His son, premium stallion Tolstoi, produced licensing champions Farinelli and Freudenfest on his part. Premium stallion Silvermoon sired World Equestrian Games silver and bronze medallist Blue Hors Matine. The 2008 Trakehner riding horse champion Elfado competed at the Bundeschampionate and Grand Prix winner Showmaster. "The past two to three years Kostolany's blood became the centre of attention again amongst breeders and riders," said Trakehner breeding director Lars Gehrmann. "It was for us a reason to decorate this important source for performance with the Trakehner Stallion of the Year title." |

Winter in Hämelschenburg |
 
|
At the Dec 13th-14 Orlando Winter Classic, 3yr old Trakehner mare Oksana SR by Summertime out of Onia by EH Consul - Lucado, bred by Nancy and Todd Shaw, Seneca Ridge, Eustis, Florida, managed to not only all four classes
she was entered in, but also became Grand Champion of the show. Oksana SR was started less than four months ago by Amber Walker, who rode her in four training level classes at the two-day show where the pair scored 70.8 %, 62.8 % and 65.652% at Training Level tests 1 and 3. They added the show high score of 74.783% to their record of four first places at their first outing. Oksana SR had been shown in-hand this past summer at three breed shows and ended up number seven in the nation, all-breeds, for the 2008 competition year. We think this is an excellent example of a young Trakehner horse that made a wonderful transition from breed shows to under saddle performance. Congratulations Seneca Ridge and we look forward to hearing more! (Maren Engelhardt) |

| Aachen 25./26. August 2006 - it was a final treat to see the Danish mare Blue Hors Matiné by Silvermoon (by Kostolany)win a second medal: the silver in the Freestyle!! WHAT a competition for this 9 year old "green" FEI horse. With horses of her quality, and that of Elvis VA on her heels, the next years in the dressage world will become interesting again! |
| Aachen 23. August 2006 - The Team competition in dressage is over, and while Germany won a very secure Gold, followed by the Netherlands and the US, it was one gray mare that sort of stole the show: "Blue Hors Matiné", 9 year old by the Trakehner Kostolany-son Silvermoon, and her rider Andreas Heldstrand charmed the judges and audiences alike. While the mare is still somewhat unstable and her rotating tail shows offs some of the tension that is in her, there is no deying the fact that she is the future of dressage at this point. No other horse her age comes close. |

Nevertheless, breed director Lars Gehrmann judged him as "one of the most brilliant younger champion foal producers in the recent history of the breed", whose foals not only stood out with their consistency and high quality, but who were also high in demand on the market. His first offspring are now under saddle and reflect the high hopes placed in this young stallion. |

11. January 2005 - The black Trakehner stallion Gribaldi by Kostolany has been proclaimed keur by the KWPN verband. His Dutch stallion owners Mr. de Jong and Joop van Uytert purchased Gribaldi at the 1995 Trakehner Licesing in Neumunster as a 2,5-year old from Gestüt Hämelschenburg. Gribaldi has been standing at stud in The Netherlands his entire life and is also approved for the KWPN verband, Oldenburg verband and Danish Warmblood society.

In order to become a KWPN Keur stallion, a sire has to have a sport index of more than 140 points with a reliability of 75%, and his quality conformation has to be passed on to the offspring. Under Dutch team rider Edward Gal, Gribaldi has become an international successful Grand Prix dressage horse. |
