Breeder: Lothar Völz
When he died at the age of 28, Caretino was the last of the seven stallion sons of Caletto II to enter the Holstein Studbook.
He went on to win numerous young jumper classes showing his outstanding jumping technique. At 5 and at 6 years old, Caretino participated in the Bundeschampionate under Thomas Schöning.
By 2007, Caretino had produced 650 offspring that were registered for competition with the German FN. At the time of his death, Caretino offspring had earned more than 3 million Euros.
Over 50 sons have been licensed, and over 20 daughters have been awarded state premium status.
