Having Renkum Arturo for a sire & Pentagon as his dam’s sire, this combination cannot fail to produce an exceptional foal.

Words do not do justice to Kartier’s impeccable temperament, confirmation and movement.

From his first crop, he sired the 2003 Champion North West Sports Yearling - Foxy Formula, who has since become a Champion Riding Horse, winning at the Royal Highland, qualifying for the RIHS & in the ribbons at HOYS at only four years old!

Kartier is a full brother to winning Prix St Georges stallion - A quest for excellence by Dutch breeders has resulted in the Crackenthorpe Formula One. superlative competition horse – the Dutch (KWPN). of the highest calibre carry its banner; today the lion brand stands for quality, hardiness & equable temperament. Their ancestors were the Gelderland & Groningen farm horses whose blood was intermingled with the Thoroughbred. Only the finest stallions qualify for the State Controlled stud. Potential stallions like Pentagon were evaluated in all disciplines during a rigorous 100-day test. Not only was performance in , & cross-country important but also character, stable & training behaviour. Arturo was an excellent example of the quality competition horse being produced by the Dutch. British Breeders now have the opportunity to fuse the mettle of our classic Thoroughbred with The British Sports Horse/ Warmblood resulting in the versatile animal demanded by today’s society.
