Lineage
El Capone is by the Olivi son UB 40, who was a breeding stallion in the USA for many years.

El Capone's great-granddam Tamora (keur preferent prestatie s.Amor) is the dam of a Small Tour horse by Gribaldi, a ZZL-level horse by Saluut, a Z2-level horse by Cor de la Bryère, and Z1-level horses by Wellington, Rechter, and Wisconsin. The dam-line continues with the keur preferent prestatie mare Olien, a daughter of the English Thoroughbred Pericles xx out of the keur preferent prestatie mare Karin (s.Apollo).
