CG Cantata was foaled here at Cedar Grove in April of 2001. Her sire is the Hanoverian stallion Contucci, owned by Hilltop Farm. Cantata's dam is Chessie, an ISR approved TB/Belgium cross mare.
She herself was a premium foal and won site champion at her ISR/Oldenburg NA inspection (registered ISR only) with a score of 8.4. From then, she has been shown lightly in hand with (but not limited to) a 2nd place at the PVDA sporthorse breeders show and a 1st place in the ISR/Oldenburg class at Morven Park against stiff competition. Cantata received an unbelievable 106 at her mare inspection.
She is a mare of moderate build, standing 16hh with a very nice topline and ground covering gate. We were so please, in fact, with her developement that we repeated her breeding and produced her full sister CG Conundrum.
Cantata has proven herself as a broodmare with the birth of her first foal, Sempertucci, who has followed in her mother's shadow by receiving a premium score of 8.2.
