Performance test report

Conformation description 2002 (05-09 t/m 13-11)
Scandic is a well developed, sufficient riding type stallion in good rectangular model but that should have more appeal. The neck comes from deep in the chest. Scandic has a strong topline. The hindleg has straight pasterns.

Pedigree information 
Through his sire Scandic carries the blood of the dressage stallion Solos Carex, who competed for Denmark in the World Equestrian Games this year. Solos Carex appears to be an above average sire in his own country. His pedigree is primarily Holsteiner with Castro (Calypso I x Landgraf) and the top sire Lagano. On the dam"s side is the blood of a second dressage sire that was successful internationally, the Swedish stallion Amiral (Napoleon x Flamingo). Besides that the dam line gets standing through the UTV champion Joline (s Michelangelo). Great grandmother Eljenohve (s Akteur), who competed at Z-level dressage herself, produced the international jumper Luidam. Lucky Boy xx and Le Faquin xx add thoroughbred blood in the background.

He trots with a lot of impulsion, power and tact. He can do good transitions and has a lot of balance. Scandic has good scope in the canter, which also has a lot of impulsion and power. He can collect sufficiently and has a lot of balance. Scandic has more than sufficient to a lot of talent for dressage and gives his rider a good feeling.
Scandic has a moderate to sufficient take-off in jumping. He jumps with good leg technique but should use his body better. He seems to be sufficiently careful and seems to have sufficient scope. Scandic has moderate to sufficient talent for jumping and gives his rider a moderate to sufficient feeling.
Stall and handling behavior is normal.
Veterinary remarks: The stallion previously participated in the spring test from March 14 through May 8. Because of a tendon injury on both forelegs the stallion was redirected to the fall test. During the fall test nothing out of the ordinary happened.

Offspring report

Offspring 2004 (foals)
Scandic showed foals that varied from barely sufficient to richly developed. The foals are more than sufficient riding type.
The Scandic foals have an expressive head. The poll has sufficient length. The neck has sufficient length and good shape. The wither is more than sufficient in length and is sufficiently developed. The shoulder has good position and sufficient length. The back is sufficiently long, well muscled and sometimes a little deep. The loins are more than sufficient in length and are well connected. The croup is shaped well. The hamstring is long. The foreleg is more than sufficient in length with correct stance. Once in a while a foal had short legs. The stance of the hindleg is frequently long and sometimes sickle hocked. The base is well developed with more than sufficient quality.
The walk is pure, has good scope and suppleness. The foals move well in trot with good use of the hind- and foreleg. They are uphill with very much use of the body. The canter has good scope with much balance. The foals care good at changes in the canter.

In short: A uniform collection of good rectangular type foals that vary in development. The value of the foals goes up because they use the body so well during movement. They also show good leg technique and are good at changes.

There were 18 picked foals shown and eight that were selected by the owner. The value of the foals goes up because of their movement. Two foals that were inspected at home fit in with the above report. The foals that were selected by the owner also fit in with the above report.
The quality of the mares varied.
Shown: 26 (+2) foals out of 242 mares that were bred in 2003.
