The beautifully build Canabis Z started his sporting and breeding career at Stud Zangersheide. Afterwards Canabis Z jumped for no less than six seasons at international level, mostly ridden by Spain’s Manuel Fernandez Saro. Canabis Z has been successful at many four and ve star competitions and won the Grand Prix of Vejer de la Frontera for example.

Canabis Z is a son of the legendary Holstein bred sire Contender, who still has a great in uence on today’s breeding. The genes of the valuable sires Silvester and Cor de la Bryere strengthen Canabis’ pedigree. In addition, Canabis Z was bred out of the strong, famous Holstein damline 990.

From Canabis’ rst crop, several offspring competes successfully at the highest level, such as the Olympic mare Cadjanine Z (Gregory Wathelet and nowadays Rodrigo Pessoa), Carolus Z (Henri Kovács, Cian O’Connor and today Bernardo Alves), who competed at the European Championships in Herning 2013, and WorldCup winner Carrabis Z (Richie Moloney).
