Official Comments:
"Tatendrang embodies the type required in the
modern Trakehner sport horse." "As stated, Tatendrang's type is that
of the modern Trakehner sport horse and this highly desired quality
carried over and was clearly demonstrated in his gaits and jumping
aptitude. Tatendrang possesses a good marching quality walk.
Impulsion, elasticity, and lightness produced a ground covering walk
illustrating good use of the hindquarters. At the trot, Tatendrang
flexes and uses his joints well. A clear, two-beat rhythm results in
a light and balanced trot. The canter, likewise, was balanced and
uphill. He has an expansive, reaching leg that results in a ground
covering gait. Self-carriage was always present in his walk, trot,
and canter. The athleticism of Tatendrang was also demonstrated in
the jumping chute. He was extremely willing. As in his gaits, his
jumping was balanced, clever, and with the technique was good.
Tatendrang leaves you with a good general impression. Temperament
and manners were good. He could have had more muscular development.
This may occur as he matures. Overall, Tatendrang is a very athletic
stallion."
