Cobra was born in Holland but carries the genes of the Holsteiner top progenitors Carthago Z, Landgraf 1 and Cor De La Breyre.  Cobra is one of the few approved sons of the world renowned Olympic Jumping Stallion Carthago Z (Jos Lansink), that has revolutinised the breeding world.

Carthago Z is a phenomenon in breeding considering the large number of his progeny that are achieving at International level from his short time at stud.
The International Showjumpers, Tulip, Candyman, and Felice are Carthago’s most well known progeny. Cobra’s Dam, S-Ladalca is recorded equally as the dam of the famous International jumping stallions Jadalco (by Fabio 1).

The successful jumping stallion Eurocommerce Napels (ridden by Gerco Schroder) is a three parts brother to Cobra. Eurocommerce Napels goes back to the dam’s side via Alme Z in a direct line to S-Ladalca. He is also a half brother to Versace who was awarded 5 year old Champion of France 2007.

Cobra jumps in an uncomplicated, easy manner with a lot of scope. In every jumping round his co-operative character is a shining example of attitude and intelligence.

After his World Championship success, he continued on to win the stallion Competition in Zuidbroek, and 1.40m in Zelhem.
Cobra started jumping at 1.50m level with Peter Geerink and had several high placings until he resulted in an injury which knocked hi out of contention for a ittle while.  He came back to full form and  continuously won and was placed in 1.50m competition in Ireland, including the Boswell Grand Prix League Final, Ireland 2007, & placings in Grand Prix in 2008 and 2009 aqnd early 2010 all over Ireland. Every time he jumps, he wins!

he is now retired fully to stud and huis progeny are already proving to be top sports competitiors and are inheriting his intelligence, scope and carefulness which make his such a powerful competitior.
