The Hippomundo Power Value © is awarded to stallions and is calculated by adding the level of the offspring of a particular stallion together and dividing that number between the number of offspring that have competed internationally. It could be described as the average level the offspring of a particular stallion will reach in its lifetime. At the moment, we can only use the results of international competitions since the 1st of January 2015 and therefore we will base our ranking on offspring aged eight to 20 years old. Let us take a look at which stallions have the highest Hippomundo Power Value at the moment.
When we consider the stallions with 250 offspring or more, one largely sticks out above the others and that is Carthago Z with a Hippomundo Power Value © of 1.49m. Carthago Z was born in 1987 as a son of Capitol I out of a mother by Calando I. The Holstein stallion was bred in Germany by Erhard Krampitz. Some of his most successful offspring throughout his breeding career are Old Chap Tame, Mylord Carthago and Cash 63.
A total of four stallions (with a minimum of 250 offspring) draw for second place with a Hippomundo Power Value © of 1.45m.
Another Holsteiner stallion by Capitol I, Cassini I out of a mother by Caletto II takes the silver. Born in 1988 in Germany with breeder Johann Hermann Claussen, Cassini I produced the incredible Equita van 't Zorgvliet, Cabrio Z and Carambole.
The KWPN-stallion Heartbreaker bred in the Netherlands by PS Koopmans as a son of Nimmerdor out of a mother by Silvano also has a Power Value of 1.45m. His most successful descendants throughout the years are Halifax van het Kluizebos, VDL Groep Zidane Z and Romanov.
The Holstein studbook is well represented in the Hippomundo Power Value © ranking, now with Caretino who also sports a power value of 1.45m. The breeding product of Lothar Völz was born in 1983 as a son of Caletto II out of a mare by Metellus and produced top sport horses like Casall ASK, Cristallo and Caretina de Joter.
Finally, the fourth stallion to achieve a Hippomundo Power Value © is the Dutch-bred stallion Concorde. The KWPNer was born in 1984 as a breeding product to L van Diest. The son of Voltaire out of a mother by Marco Polo is the sire to Larino, Jiva and Talan.
Another four stallions currently have a Hippomundo Power Value © of 1.44m: Chacco-Blue, Darco, Baloubet du Rouet and Quidam's Rubin.
