Dominik Hartl
Dominik Hartl`s passion for Trakehner horses was instilled upon him almost in his cradle by his mother, Christa Hartl, passionate breeder of Trakehner and thoroughbred Arabians. It is her foundation that builds the breed for the future. The current stock consists of 10 horses, including the high-quality parent mare HC Arleen Amalia Argentina and Allegra Argentina. The top mare Esperia (Champion Mare Bavaria/Austria 2016, 1 class Reserve Champion NMS, SLP Champion) is also integral part of the exquisite kennel. Especially mentioned her daughter Esperita Argentina inhouse bred and by Perpignan Noir and also the in Stud Staffelde bred Holly Brown (out of champion mare Heavenly Brown x Scaglietti). The young stallion Monsieur Perpignan, who was bought by Dominik Hartl as a foal from breeder family Vester, raised as a stallion candidate and licensed in Neumünster in 2023, is considered as a perspective future star for breeding and sport. All horses are or were successful in national and international eventing, show jumping and dressage sport and are characterised by performance, nobility and best interior. Dominik Hartl is also author of the diploma thesis “Trakehnen – on the social and economic history of an East Prussian Breeding Operation”.
