his sire CORRADO
Right from the start, it was apparent that Corrado was something special, and at his performance test he scored 10s for his free jumping and jumping ability / training. He also scored 8 for rideability. He ended with a jumping score of 137, the highest of his year and finished 3rd overall.
Corrado was ridden by the Holsteiner Verband riders, Thiess Luther and Bo Kristoffersen on the young horse circuit, and was a finalist as a six year old at the Bundeschampionate in 1991. The next season he commenced his international jumping career.
Under an agreement between the Verband and Franke Sloothaaks sponsors of the time, San Patrignano, he was campaigned by Franke.
The pair won the Grand Prix of Leeuwarden in 1993, and were second in the Nations Cup at La Baule. In 1994, Corrado won the World Cup Qualifier at Dortmund and finished third in the Nations Cup at Aachen. He also won the German Championship that year. In 1996, he won the Danish World Cup Qualifier at Aarhus, and the Grand Prix of Neumünster and Kiel. In 1997, Franke and Corrado were third in the Hamburg Grand Prix and fourth in the Grand Prix of Göteborg.
As a sire, Corrado was again, an instant success. His international jumpers include: Classic H with Helena Persson, Cher with Piet Raymakers, Corrada with Peter Charles, Cosmina with Markus Fuchs, Cosmos Star with Evelyne Blaton, Caramia with Espen Johannsen, Canyon with Tim Grubb, Think Twice with Leopold van Asten, Corradina with Carsten-Otto Nagel and Cabrio with Felix and Toni Hassman.

Breeding analysis of the 2006 World Games SJ and 2008 Olympics
It has been reported that Corofino has "issue with water jumps" in defence of the horse and to clear up misconceptions the facts are Corofino only had 1 issue in Europe with water and that was at Balve where you turned and saw it late. Thomas said the last summer he rode Corofino from March to September Corofino jumped without any faults at the highest level, 1.60m tracks and 4m open waters.
