Arentino
(Santiago/Flaneur/Apollonius)
(We are planning on using Arentino on our ATA mares).
Breeder: Manfred Schenk Munchen Germany
Family: E22B Arcticonius xx
Wenzel-Huckeswagen
Arentino’s sire (Santiago by Wie Ibikus out of the foundation mare Schwalbenlied) was
Champion of the grading in 1980 and was a very substantial big framed grandson of the
legendary Ibikus. Wie Ibikus himself produced in only two years standing at stud a big
number of high successful dressage horses competing up to Grand Prix, amongst them the
graded sons Va Tout (international Grand Prix horse) and the very well known dressage
sires Kiebitz (father of Banditentraum) and Ferrum. Santiago himself produced a number of
outstanding broodmares as for example Argentina (full sister to Arentino), Cinzana, Kelly
Lady, Countess, Fortuna and Chanel. His real value can be seen in his offspring’s
competition results, amongst a big group of successful horses in advanced competitions,
such as the international three-day event horse Campari, who for many years was the most
successful Trakehner in this sort of competition and the Grand Prix dressage horses
Satchmo, Kapitan, Kaschmir and Finalist.
Arentino’s mother E.St Arktis II presents herself as one of the most valuable broodmares of
the whole Trakehner breed, being a full sister to the great stallion Arogno, (sire of
Schwadroneur and Partout), which was the real reformation of the breed within the last 30
years. Besides Arentino she produced St.Pr.u.Pr Mare Argentina by Santiago (full sister to
Arentino), which was Champion and Supreme Champion of many shows, also Anteus by
Saint Cloud, successful three-day event horse at advanced level, Arktikos by Blazflug,
doing so well in Austria in Prix St.Georges and Altlantis by Velasquea, Reserve Champion
of the central grading and show in Denmark.
E.St Arktis II was awarded Elite mare status in year 2004 by the Trakehner verband in
Germany.
This bloodline is a guarantee for high natural riding ability and therefore we believe in
Arentino, as a donator of dressage attitudes, kind temperament and powerful movements.
Arentino completed his 100-day performance test in Germany. He was successfully ridden
in dressage up to Prix St.George and Intermediaire, as well as some show jumping circuit,
which was something that he preferred to dressage.
This is a real gentleman with an outstanding character, kind attitudes and noble presence.
He is without a doubt a top class stallion. Arentino's foals are very correct in conformation
and have his lovely lovely temperament and super uphill paces. Most are black with some
brown and bay, as Arentino can not sire chestnut foals.
