Olymp al Samarra

About Olymp al Samarra (Elite)

This Elite and much admired stallion currently stands at Samarra stud in Germany.  We are delighted to be his Australian agent and so offer this exciting breeding opportunity to sport horse breeders on this side of the world!

As a young stallion, Olymp scored 7.48 in the ZSAA Stallion Performance Test held at the most significant European sport event for Arabian horses, thereby earning his Shagya-Araber breed license under the approval of the German Minister for Agriculture.  The Trakehner Verband have also licensed him for the Trakehner breed.

He competed successfully in eventing across Bavaria for three successive seasons.  During this time, he enrolled in a further Sport Performance Test, where he won the dressage component against 30 warmblood horses. 

Following his time on the eventing circuit, Olymp took on endurance and competed successfully in International CEI events in Germany, Hungary and France. His impressive results achieved a third Sport Performance Test, where he claimed one of the highest results of the last 15 years.  At this time the German endurance Team selected him to compete as part of the team at the 2011 European Championships at Florac.  

After continuing endurance success and five years after his initial selection for the German endurance team, at 17 years of age, he won 1st place in the CEIJYR** 120km endurance ride in The Netherlands (May 2016) and again joined the German endurance team, this time at the 2016 Junior European Championship in Portugal.
