Paula's Great Grandsire
Cor de la bryere was a stallion with great
presence, good frame, and an energetic masculine expression. He had a
great face
with a quiet eye. He was known for clearing fences with ease.
He was a well used stallion and is looked very favorably
upon in today's old line breeding of athletic horses with scope.
"Corde" had a triumphal reign in Holstein like no other stallion
before or after him. His progeny gained influence in all German breeds and
naturally also on an international level. He established a significant
dynasty with progeny Caletto I, II and II, as well as Calypso I to V, who
proved themselves both in breeding and in competition sport. On a regional
level, approved stallions Corrado I and Cordalmé Z caused a sensation in
international jumping. In 1998 Cor de la Bryère celebrated his 30th
birthday. His sons, grandsons and great-grandsons came from all over
Europe on this occasion, to Elmshorn in his honor. The Cor de la Bryère
daughters too, including such super mares as Costa 5 and Cordeka, the
full-sister of the stallions Caletto I-II.
