With double crosses of the great stallions Cor de la Bryere and Capitol I, Cevin Z’s pedigree boasts the exceptional genetics for which the Zangersheide studbook is renowned.

Following a successful international career in jumping as a young horse, Cevin Z has distinguished himself as a remarkable sire of competition horses, who carry his good temperament, exceptional jumping style, and talent.

Coriall Z, Cevin’s sire, sired numerous outstanding jumping and dressage horses while residing at the Zangersheide stud and has continued to breed competitors at the international level in each of the three Olympic sports ever since he was sold to Brazil. Cor de la Bryere, his father, is one of the most significant stallions in contemporary show jumping. He sired 88 or more graded stallions, and his offspring have amassed over 2 million pounds in prize money in Germany alone.

His dam,  Larthago, a prominent international showjumper in her own right, used embryo transfer to generate a number of successful international jumping offspring. She is the daughter of Carthago Z, who participated in the Olympics in 1996 and 2000 and later rose to fame as one of history’s most productive sires. Larthago participated in international competitions and won the CSI-A CH10 Rotterdam at 1.45m and a significant class at HOYS in 2003. She has four KWPN-approved stallions in Europe. All of her offspring attract premium prices, and her embryo transplants reaching 25,000 euros.

Cevin Z has produced a remarkable number of elite eventers and showjumpers, all of whom appear to share his wonderful temperament.
