Castle Creek is a hopeful sire of the Holsteiner Verband Hengsthaltungs GmbH and has good basic gaits and special jumping potential.
The success of many high-achieving Holsteiner breeding and sport horses is due to their solidly constructed genetic background. Stallions known to pass on their qualities to their offspring are bred to mares with a genetic capacity well-known to their breeders. This process being repeated from generation to generation has led to the development of some particularly successful branches of our Holsteiner performance lines.
Castle Creek’s breeding is the manifestation of such a powerful genetic make-up. His type and ability to perform have been particularly influenced by selective line breeding to top sire Caletto II.
Castle Creek boasts excellent and highly impressive basic gaits, not only in-hand, but also under saddle, with a canter in a class of its own. He is a very careful jumper with outstanding hind leg technique.
Considerations for breeding
A young stud with a bloodline carrying exceptional sires based on a consolidated dam line. Considering his dis-tinctive type and high-quality movement, he is expected to produce foals suited to meet the requirements of the modern market. Castle Creek’s particular strenghts are his rideability and his quality canter. Along with his aptitude for jumping, combining energetic take-off, carefulness and scope, he offers the breeders an excellent opportunity to improve their mares’ inheritance.

Pedigree of
Father
His sire Casall is known as exceptional performer of the highest
calibre. With his own and his offspring’s performance beyond any doubt, he has gained worldwide recognition.
Mother
His dam Orchidee is by Carthago, a two times Olympic horse and winner of many international high-profile grand prix competitions under Jos Lansink with a reputation as an international top sire despite only a short time at stud. Orchidee’s produce also includes Formidable by For Pleasure – State four-year-old Holsteiner Jumping Champion at Elmshorn in 2009 and later top class young jumper in the USA.
Further information
His second dam Winnipeg has produced several successful S level jumpers as well as Lasandos, a Holsteiner-graded stallion highly respected in the Irish stud book. The dam line is based on stem 18A2 which has produced numerous international sport horses like for example Calle Cool, winner of the Hamburg Derby, and King Artus, Olympic gold medallist in eventing.

Personal contribution of
Sports success
Castle Creek’s first showing season in 2018 was very successful as he won the qualifier to the Elmshorn State 4-year-old jumper Championship with Ebba Johansson at a score of 8.8. Already his first jumps at the 2018 Neumünster stallion parade have established his reputation with breeders and jumping enthusiasts.
Now, at the age of five, he has placements in young show jumper classes up to medium level (1.30m) under Ebba Johansson.
Stallion performance test
Castle Creek successfully completed 14-day ability assessment in Schlieckau. He was given 9.0 on temperament and 8.5 on willingness to perform, with his canter and free-jumping earning him 8.0, respectively.
