A golden horse both figuratively and literally, gentle and easy-going he presents serious qualities for the discipline of dressage.
His sire ARKTOS, is one of the best colored sport stallions in Poland. He is out of Geronimo, a son of Coronado who has offspring in showjumping at 1m60 level such as Conjurer or Checkers 10. He is sired by the breed leader Cor de la Bryère. Arktos' maternal line is also interesting. His dam Asta competed in amateur Eventing and his maternal grandsire Bujak, out of the thoroughbred stallion Sir Shostakovich, was a winner up to CCI 2* level. His 4th dam is a daughter of Argentinus, who sired Special, a gelding by Clinton, also performing at 1m60 level. Arktos himself has competed up to 1m40 level in Poland, he has produced several approved stallions including Wolf who has just obtained AES approval and Lamborghini who has been exported to Australia.
His dam KORA, already has 2 sons approved to breed in AES, Karat-J and Kiss of Gold-J, her third son by Don Deluxe seems to be following in the footsteps of his big brothers and at just 1 year old shows a superb model and moves very well. She is the daughter of the stallion Aramir, who distinguished himself in dressage at international 3-star level and is recognized as one of Poland's very good colored stallions.

In 2022, he was AES approved at the age of 3 years old for a dressage-oriented breeding career.
In 2023, he began working under saddle, showing himself to be easy-going and eager to do well.
In 2024, he begins his first competitions.
His first two foals born in 2022, (both palominos from two gray dams) have size, strength and are very human-like. They are very easy for everything. The 2023 births produced 4 fillies, two isabelle, one bay and one bay pie (bay pie dam). They show curiosity with very good locomotion, good back and strong hocks.
Karat-J is a young stallion with a promising future with good gaits and plenty of strength. He can be crossed with mares that have a slightly weak back and lack strength in the hindquarters. He will bring calm and serenity to mares with a strong temperament. Given his versatile origins, he may also be suitable for a showjumping or eventing cross. In view of his first offspring, he seems to very often pass on his golden color, his size and makes thoughtful and curious foals.
