Pedigree:

Mare Family: O 113 A 2 --  Caravelle /63

CALIFORNIA II *M* by KEY WEST out of the State Premium & Premium mare CASATA VOM KLOSTERHOF by DONAUMONARCH has been awarded Model Mare status by the American Trakehner Association based on her German approval score of 59.5 points (8.5,8,7.5/8.5,9.5,8.5/ 9). She was Champion Mare of her inspection and the German Trakehner Verband’s highest scored mare in Germany in 2005.
Her sire Key West, a full-brother to the 2001 Neumuenster champion stallion K2, was an accomplished performance horse at M levels in both dressage and show jumping and is known as an excellent broodmare sire and performance horse producer. His pedigree is exceptional in combining the two great Anglo Arabian stallions Upan la Jarthe AA (top show jumper sire; also sire of the approved FEI Trakehner stallion Kadre Noir) and Inschallah AA, a true foundation stallion of the Oldenburg breed. This refinement blood is then crossed with two of the breed’s best mares after WWII, the Elite mares Schwalbenburg (also dam of Showmaster, Sans Souci and Schwadroneur) and Kalinka, German national champion mare and dam of the Grand prix gelding Kavalier.
California II *M* is a member of the very important mare family Caravelle (Wahler – Klosterhof Medingen). Her second dam, the Premium mare Charisma, full-sister to the international show jumper Boettcher’s Caprice, also produced Chronist, the possibly best Caprimond son in the breed, and is grand-dam to the stallions C’est Bon (2004 Neumuenster reserve-champion) and Come Close. This is also the dam line of the stallion Crambambuli.
