DVD Cor De la Bryere: Holstein’s Greatest Stallion of the Century

Cor de la Bryere stood at stud in Holstein, Germany, beginning in 1971. The French horse became a legend as he influenced the modern Holstein breed like no other stallion. This important stallion “stamped” his offspring, and through his various influential sons, he created several different show jumping dynasties. His offspring have an excellent reputation in the international sport scene, and include Olympic show jumping champion Classic Touch, Calvaro, and Corrado, as well as the dressage horses Chacomo and Corlandus.1

This DVD tracks Cor de la Bryere’s career, which is closely linked with the history of the Holstein breed. Who discovered this exceptional stallion? And where and how? Was he good to ride? What kind of personality did he have? What are his main qualities and those of his offspring? The people who surrounded this horse offer insight into his incredible career. The DVD includes a special look at the stallion that is today represented in 80 percent of all Holstein pedigrees — Cor de la Bryere in his last year of life, still vigorous, powerful, and legendary.
