The champion of the 2019 stallion grading is developing into an international level sport horse. A frequently used stud already in his first breeding seasons, he now boasts first international placings. Same as their sire, his offspring have been living up to expectations, as well, with many of his children demonstrating magnificent type and jumping quality.
Cahil offspring stand out for their athleticism. His foals are modern and elegant and always leggy, with strikingly elastic basic gaits and impressive charm and chic. In particular when bred to mares influenced by TB blood, Cahil sires very interesting offspring.

Sire
Cornet Obolensky himself had caused a splash on the international show jumping scene with Marco Kutscher by winning gold at the Madrid Europeans with the German team as well as the Zurich world cup competition and the Rome and Rotterdam Nations Cups. In 2012, Cornet Obolensky was awarded the title of most successful German jumping horse. Over the last two decades he has had a great impact on the worldwide show jumping scene and has definitely demonstrated his quality as a sire with offspring such as Cornet d’Amour, Comme il faut, Cornado I or Clooney.
His sire Clinton took fourth place at the Athens Olympics with Dirk Demeersmann; in addition to Cornet Obolensky, he has sired many other successful international top sport horses including Eldorado van de Zeshoek TN, Clintop, Cordess and Clintissima.
His second sire Corrado I, himself a successful international sport horse with Franke Sloothaak, became the founder of a sire line in the Holsteiner breeding programme.
Another positive aspect of his bloodline is Cornet Obolensky’s damsire, Heartbreaker, a stallion much esteemed for his quality offspring.
Damline
Cahil’s dam Operette III is by top stallion Contender. Her produce includes Vienna Olympic, an exceptional mare who made the top 25 with Sheikh Ali Al Thani at the Caen WEG at nine-year-old. Another daughter, Wonka, also boasts international achievements, won the Holsteiner State six-year-old Championship and produced the licensed stallion Forino.
Mare family 776 is currently the largest stem in the Holsteiner breeding programme. The branch established by Ernst Schacht in Todendorf is considered particularly successful and is now intensively bred at Grönwohldhof.
Own performance
Cahil completed 14-day ability assessment at Neustadt upon Dosse in 2020 with very good results. He was given 9.0 on free jumping ability, willingness to perform and ridability (test rider). He completed the test with a total mark of 8.78 (jumping weighted). In the 2021, he completed sport testing for four-year-old stallions in Verden, where he received the final mark 8.22 (jumping weighted). In March 2022, Cahil completed part II of his sport test in Verden with a final weighted mark of 8.25.
Cahil has been produced by Lucas Wenz for a good year now – and with good success. Over the past season, the combination secured numerous wins and placings up to 1.30m level. Cahil also shone in the international youngster tour of the Riesenbeck horse show.

Offspring of Cahil
Cahil foals demonstrate impressive type and movement. At the Holsteiner foal auction in Falsterbo, a high-quality Cahil daughter out of a dam by Uriko (Wilfried Thoman, Drelsdorf) sold to a new Swedish owner realizing 17,000 euros. Another Cahil-Clarcon colt (Bernd Börger, St. Michaelisdonn) won the 2022 Holsteiner state foal championship in Bad Segeberg and developed into a stallion prospect accepted for the Elmshorn Holsteiner licensing in 2024. His full brother from the same breeder won the Holsteiner state foal championship in 2024, while a Cahil-Caretino daughter from the Magens breed operation became runner-up in the filly class. A son (out of a Clarimo dam) from his first crop presented for licensing at Elmshorn was stallion graded. At the German Sport Horse grading held at Neustadt upon Dosse in January 2024, a Cahil-Con Air son has been licensed and awarded premium status. Last year, another Cahil son (dam sire Clarimo) has been licensed in Belgium.
