Maracaná

About  - Maracaná impresses as the top ranking stallion of all stallion licensings in 2017, and therefore, was one of the most popular stallions in breeding in 2018. It’s hard to look away from this striking master of movements. An excellent mechanic combined with his spectacular step-off as well as very engaged hindquarters moving always in rhythm with the gait make the stallion’s motion sequence the embodied perfection. Natural elasticity in every motion swing through the entire body. Despite of his young age Maracaná is already well-balanced and collected. At his licensing, the continuity of his spectacular motion sequences attracted attention every time he presented himself. . He finished his 14-day test with a final result with emphasis on dressage of 8.34, receiving a 9.0 for rideability. His willingness to work was also praised with a 9.5, just like his character with a 9.25.

Performance - He was the winner of the stallion sport test in Verden in 2019 with extremely high marks: total score: 8.62 (rideability 8.8, walk 8.8 , overall impression 8.8, trot 8.5, canter 8.2). IN 2018 he was successful 14-day test in Adelheidsdorf: final score with emphasis on dressage: 8.34 (willingness to work 9.5 , character 9.25 , rideability 9.0, temperament 9.0 , canter 8.5 , walk and trot 8.0). In 2017 he became a premium stallion and a price highlight at the Westphalian licensing in Münster-Handorf. 

Sire - His sire Millennium is certainly the most significant Trakehner of current breeding. He is omnipresent at licensings of all breeding associations with champion stallions and, meanwhile, about 40 licensed sons. Especially, the noble type and charisma combined with extraordinary quality of movement prove his striking power for refinement when looking at many of his offspring.

Damline - The dam’s sire Lord Loxley is known worldwide due to the inheritance of his outstanding quality of movements. As Bundeschampion and multiple winner in advanced level classes Lord Loxley I shines also with his highly successful offspring such as Lorenzo, who placed fifth in the individual class under the Spanish rider Severo Jurado Lopez at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.

In his third generation, Lancer II brings the demanded genes of the great Landgraf again into play. Both, the sire and the son, influenced the breeding with highly successful jumping offspring, but also with numerous advanced level winning dressage offspring. Then, Ramiro, found in fourth generation, is another top Holsteiner sire in the pedigree of Maracaná.
