Sports index

The sports index dressage is based on the sport of the horse itself and/or offspring and/or family members.This is presented in relation to the breeding direction dressage.The sport index is only shown for horses with their own sport presentation.

Sport index springen: 104(75%)

Genetic profile

The breeding values have been estimated using information from sport, inspections and talent tests and in addition the available DNA profiles (genotypes).
The DNA profile of the horse itself is included here.
The breeding values are presented relative to the breeding direction jumping.
An average KWPN show jumper has a show jumping breeding value between 80 and 120.

Performance test report

Conformation 
Charisma is well-developed stallion with more than sufficient jumper conformation, a downhill body direction, and little "blood-horse" expression. The head is more than sufficiently attractive. The poll is sufficiently long. The neck has more than sufficient length and shape, with good muscling. The neck comes out deep from the chest. The shoulder has good length but is straight. The wither is sufficiently developed and has good length. The back has more than sufficient length. The loins are sufficiently connected and more than sufficiently muscled. The croup is short and sloped; the distance from the point of the hip to the point of the buttock is long. The front leg has sufficient length and correct conformation. The hind leg is correct. The legs are well developed and of more than sufficient quality. The hooves are well shaped.

Lineage
Charisma is a son of the influential stallion Stakkato, a very successful Grand Prix show jumper under Eva Bitter. This son of the Hanoverian stallion Spartan is equally successful as a sire. Charisma's dam Cassien is by Cassini I, out of Malva II (s.Literat). Bred to Lord, Charisma's great-granddam Wienerin (s.Cor de la Bryere) produced the approved stallion L’Eperon, whose winnings as a show jumper total €269,000. Vision 3, a full sister to Wienerin, produced the stallions Baldini I and II (s.Bachus), Carano (s.Capitol I), Cavano (s.Capitol I), and Lesotho (s.Landgraf I).

Inspection Report
Charisma is an honest and reliable stallion with a steady temperament, but he needs to show more "blood." He is more than sufficiently willing to work, has good trainability, and a good mouth. The walk has good scope. The trot has sufficient scope. The canter has good scope and more than sufficient power. The stallion moves with more than sufficient body position, balance, and elasticity. The hind leg should step under the body more resolutely. Charisma jumps with good reflexes, very good form, and a somewhat long hind leg. He appears careful and shows abundant scope. Charisma demonstrates abundant talent as a jumper and gives his rider a good feeling.

Stable Behavior
Charisma is an honest and reliable stallion. He is easy on the ground and quiet in his stall. 

Veterinary Report
Upon the stallion's arrival, he presented symptoms of widespread dermatitis on his back and ribs. The condition was treated topically and orally.  

Semen Inspection
Expected fertility class: sufficient.

Breeding Recommendation
Charisma can improve jumping form and rideability. He is best bred to mares with sufficient "blood."

Dam Report
Cassien is a well-developed mare with more than sufficient rectangular-shaped conformation. This well-built gray mare was presented in excellent condition. The head is attractive with a nice eye. The poll has sufficient length; the head-neck connection is heavy. The neck has normal length and direction with good muscling; the mare has an under-neck. The wither is normally developed but could be slightly longer. The shoulder has normal length and placement. The back has normal placement and strong muscling. The loins are well connected and broadly muscled. The croup has normal placement and length. There is more than sufficient length from the point of the hip to the point of the buttock. The gaskin has normal muscling. The front leg is correct. The hind leg is correct. The pasterns are slightly short but have a normal angle. The hooves have normal shape but little heel. The legs are tight with appropriate circumference and well-developed joints. The walk has sufficient scope and is correct. The trot has limited scope. The hind leg has sufficient push. The trot should have more elasticity. The canter has limited scope and body use. The hind leg should step farther under the body.
