Young Kintaro VDL is one of many approved sons by the world famous champion stallion Cardento. His Swedish stallion performance test garnered him 8,5-9 in jumping scores and the test rider Jennifer Fogh-Pedersen praised his rideability and scope giving him the score 9. The sire Cardento needs no further presentation. He was the backbone of the Swedish jumping team for many years under his rider Peter Eriksson with the WEG, European Championships and the Olympic Games on the list of merits. His influence on Swedish breeding for jumping horses is major and for the last ten years he’s been awarded the title Stallion of the Year. 

Kintaro’s dam Giuoletta M is by the great jumper Guidam and represents a Dutch dam line that has produced many successful sport horses, the great granddam Olinda for example, jumped in the World Cup final in 2008 under Todd Minikus. Out of this damline comes Authentic, successful under Beezie Madden with Olympic and WEG – medals on the list of merits. 

The dam Baloukette (by Balou du Rouet) represents the damline F. 4 and European top blood for jumping through the stallions Balou du Rouet and Cardento. The granddam Carkette was awarded a jumping diploma at the young horse test and is a ** performance mare. 

Great granddam Torkette is an Elite mare influential in the development of the damline. She competed in M-class dressage and 1. 20 m jumping. Seven of her offspring have been awarded premiums at the young horse tests, many in both dressage and in jumping. The two daughters Carkenda (by Cardento) and Emkendab (by Emmerton) have competed in 1.40 m jumping. Carlizio (by Cardento), Concerto (by Cardento) and Em’erald (by Emmerton) have competed in 1.35 m jumping. Torkette also produced three offspring that competed in M-class dressage and the daughter Con Cett (by Cardento) that is an Elite mare. Among the offspring of  Con Cett are the siblings by Al Cantino:  Al Cett (1.45m jumping) and Al Cendo 1241, approved stallion with placings and victories in 1.50 m under Peter Eriksson.
