Genetic profile

The breeding values have been estimated using information from sport, inspections and talent tests and in addition the available DNA profiles (genotypes).
The DNA profile of the horse itself is included here.
The breeding values are presented relative to the breeding direction jumping.
An average KWPN show jumper has a show jumping breeding value between 80 and 120.

Lineage:
Hermantico is Comme Il Faut's first KWPN-approved son. In English, his name means "as it should be." Comme Il Faut combines the genes of two phenomenal show jumpers: Cornet Obolensky and the legendary Ratina Z. Comme Il Faut, who inherited his good genes from both his parents, does his name justice as a successful Grand Prix show jumper under Marcus Ehning. Hermantico's bloodlines trace back to Westfalen. His dam Chiquitita is by Colbert GTI, a Cantus son who was successful in the sport. Bred to Charisma (s.Calido I), Hermantico's granddam also produced the 1.60m jumper Camirage, ridden by Ireland's Christina Kelly.

Performance test scores

Offspring report

Hermantico showed a variable model and development with the at home scored foals. The by the owner presented foals were a uniform collection of well-developed foals that fit more than sufficiently into the rectangular model. The foals have an appealing front. The back is sometimes a bit weak. The hind leg stance is often sickle. The walk has sufficient length and is occasionally toed out. The trot is more than sufficient in length, elasticity, impulsion and balance. The canter is good in length and balance with more than sufficient impulsion and elasticity. 

Number of registered offspring 2016: 30 fillies, 39 colts
Number of foals scored at home 2016: 25 foals
Number of present foals: 7 foals

Breeding recommendation based on the performance test and shown foals:
Hermantico can increase height, improve the canter and add impulsion and scope to the breeding of jumping horses.
