Capitaan is the last living Holsteiner son of Capitano, foundation sire of the Holsteiner Capitol line. Capitol is the sire of Olympic showjumpers Dobel’s Cento – gold medalist, Gitania, VDL Cardento. And Carthago. Famous offspring include Cassini I & II, Carolus, Indoctro, and 40+ approved sons and grandsons in every studbook. Heilbutt is the grand damsire of Capitol. Damsire of Cassini I, the most sought after Holsteiner sire in the World and also combines the bloodlines of Capitano, Cor de la Bryere and Heilbutt.

Capitaan, bred by top 10 award winning German Holsteiner breeder Soenke Thamling was presented and approved by the BWP in 2006. Capitaan freejumped 4 ft demonstrating the form and soundness that Capitano passed on to World top 10 sire Capitol I. Capitaan’s siblings have all risen to the highest levels of performance competing in International showjumping. Cor de la Bryere founded the other important Holsteiner "C" line producing the famous stallions Corrado, Caletto, Calypso, Constant, Corland, Corlandus, Champus, Calvados, Cor D’ Alme Z, Calando, Concorde, Challenger, Cicero, Candidus, Cor Noir, Come Back, Challenger and many sons and daughters who have produced important stallion sons and daughters. He is the damsire of Burgraff, South Pacific, Rantares, Torino and Olympic gold medalist Fein Cera with American Peter Wylde. Heilbutt is also the damsire of Ronald, Maximus and Leonardo. Capitano is found in the 4 generation pedigrees of 4 of the 7 premium approved Holsteiner stallions at the German 2005 approvals. Here is an opportunity to add the most important Holsteiner foundation and performance blood. Capitaan’s breeder Soenke Thamling also bred Olympic, World and Nations Cup showjumper Eurocommerce Montreal.

Capitaan is homozygous grey. He produces leggy modern foals with his beautiful face, superior movement and a genetic ability to jump correctly and with spectacular form. Capitaan’s Holsteiner '06 filly foal Gretina was awarded 1st premium.
