The sire
Sire Connery was approved in 2000, qualified for the Bundeschampionat twice and has been doing well as a dressage horse on his way to the FEI levels. His first crop appeared in Neumünster in 2004 and his first son, Aquarius, was approved. In 2005, his sons Elfenfeuer and Imperio were approved, the latter as the shining reserve champion in Neumünster. Connery's dam Caro-Dame II is one of the few daughters of the very good Karo As in the breed, the only approved son of the excellent sport horse sire Vollkorn xx in Oldenburg. Caro-Dame II is a daughter of the late elite mare Cornau, who not only left the breed several highly ranked daughters, but most importantly, the elite stallion and major sire Consul. Other daughters of her include the Grand Prix winner Corna, dam of the premium stallion Checkpoint, or Cornu, dam of the approved Cornus. A close relative to Connery is the 2006 auction mare 106 Corné.
The dam
This aristocratic colt excels with his long legs and an impressive and harmonious frame. He is among the crème of the crop of the breeding district Lower Saxony. The 2nd dam Pillkallen also produced Perkallen (now at Gestüt Sommerlade), who was the year’s top scoring 3-year old Trakehner mare and became champion of the central mare inspection as well as reserve champion of the regional mare show in Lower Saxony. The international dressage stallions Peron TSF and EH Partout are from the same mare family.
