This son of the famous Converter (Contender) with a maternal line descending from Carthago, another legendary show jumping horse who competed in the Olympic Games, had the perfect mix sought after in a show jumping horse: lineage, strength, gallop, technique, drive, and talent.
Despite not having an extensive career at the highest level of sport, his success as a stallion has been extraordinary, solidifying his legacy through his offspring. Conthargos is particularly valued for the quality he passes on to his progeny, which already number nearly 2,000, with 50 approved stallions, and more than 30 competing at the highest level, such as Cocolina (CSI 1.70m), Conthargo-Blue (1.60m competitor with Eiken Sato), Concona (ridden by Ben Maher), Conchento PS, who competed at 1.60m with Gregory Wathelet and Luciana Diniz, and Cosa Nostra, who competed in the Tokyo Olympics with Alberto Michán.
