Bogosse, under his German name "Ballzauber", had his first public appearance under saddle on Feb 10th 2007 at the biggest stallion show in Germany, the Münster-Handorf show with more than 60 stallions presented. And we are excited to announce that according to all official comments, including those from the head of the Trakehner Verband in Germany, and the internet community in Europe, our stallion stole the show!!! Here are some exclusive photos we thankfully received from German professionals Jutta Bauernschmitt and Peter Richterich.

Bogosse, approved in Neumünster 2006

The Team Chiacchia is thrilled to announce the acquisition of a new young star for the lineup of eventers and breeding stallions! Approved and subsequent auctioned of the German Trakehner Verband in Neumünster, Germany, Darren was able to buy the black 2.5 year old approved stallion BOGOSSE.

"BOGOSSE has so much of the best German performance blood in him and his overall athleticism, his exceptional jump and his high quality movement. "The stallion is a beautiful package of a modern sporthorse with tremendous potential, both in physique as well as genetics, for the upper levels in eventing.

BOGOSSE was bred by German Vera Feist and is a son of the black Axis, an accomplished FEI dressage stallion, but with strong foundations in show jumping. At his approval, Axis was named "Best Jumper" of his entire crop in Neumünster, which comes as little surprise given the fact that he is a son of the top sire EH Sixtus, a half brother to Darren's long term partner WINDFALL.

On the dam side, the brown/black, 16.1h stallion carries the same exceptional jumper blood that already makes Darren's super 5 year old DYNAMIK II a star in the field: EH Itaxerxes. The dam side further carries Marlon (the full brother to the century sire MAHAGONI) and the top jumper sire VIRGIL. The dam line of O18B1 BLITZLICHT (Baumgart-Verden) also stands for the top 5 year old dressage stallion and Champion at Devon, Baron Verdi, as well as the approved Blinker, Blizzard. In addition, the advanced level show jumpers Intermezzo, Lord Lester, and Blitzdame come from very close maternal relation.

The greater mare family goes back to the famous Bea-family of the Trakehner breed, one of the few that produced performance horses in dressage and show jumping to advanced levels. The most prominent member of this family is certainly the late elite stallion BANDITENTRAUM.

The Pedigree

Official comments from the Trakehner inspection commission include: modern sport horse stallion with great lines and good frame on a correct foundation; will mature significantly; excellent jumper with good scope, technique and oversight, always motivated; moves with great ease and impulsion in all three paces.
