Accroche

Top in the ranking of the best dressage stallions of Holstein. Visually an absolute eye-catcher, successful in dressage up to PSG and Inter I. That´s Accroche! This stallion impresses with his well-balanced interior, his exceptionally high rideability and his excellent dressage dispositions. Accroche comes from the highly successful Holstein dam line 18B1. This line can be traced back to the year 1810 and many successful show jumpers as well as several licensed and successful dressage stallions. In addition to Accroche, Bellino by Belissimo M, who is successful at GP in the US, is a recent example. Accroche descends from Aljano (Alasca x Latino), who was one of the most typey stallions in the Holsteiner associations lot at his time. Aljano, double  finalist of the Bundeschampionat, competed with Karin Winter-Polac in numerous Grand Prix competitions and was able to convince many times.

Accroche´s sire and his dam´s sire Linaro (Landgraf I x Calypso II) are two of the most versatile Holstein sires in the 1 st and 2 nd generation, who virtually guarantee rideability, basic gait quality and dedication to perform at highest level in addition to the jumping qualities, that are obligatory in Holstein.
In 2004 Aljano was sire of several convincing licensed sons. Accroche´s paternal granddam, Tropica (line 8768), produced Silvano, a 6-time Olympian and team silver medallist at World and European Championships. The international show jumping stallions Candur B and Lafontaine also came from the 8768 line.
Additionally Cor de la Bryére, the most influential sire of modern warmblood breeding and stallion of the century, can be found in Accroche´s Pedigree in 3 rd generation. Together with Ladykiller, one of the most important toroughbreds in German horse breeding, Accroche combines the top 3 Holstein sires in his roots.

With 60 victories and top placings in the advanced level class Accroche has been one of Holsteins TOP dressage horses for years.

Due to his outstanding sporting achievements Accroche was licensed by the Rhineland-Palatinate-Saar Horse Breeding Association in 2021 and is registered in the first class stallion book for the German Sport Horse (DSP). This was followed by his licensing by the Oldenburg Breeders' Association and his inclusion in the stallion book I there. In 2022 Accroche was also licensed by the Holsteins` Horse Breeding Association and entered in Stallion Book I. At the licensing, Accroche convinced the commission with striking movements and freedom of shoulder, especially in trot.
