Cobra was born in Holland but carries the genes of the Holsteiner top progenitors Carthago, Landgraf and Cor de la Bruyere. Sire Carthago who was himself an internationally famous showjumper with Jos Lansink is now also famous for producing top class showjumpers. Additionally the offspring of grandsire, Landgraf I and great grandsire, Cor de la Bruyere have won a huge amount of money in the jumping ring. Both stallions have countless approved sons. At the moment this modern blood foundation is in very high demand within the breeding industry. Cobra comes out of the Holsteiner pedigree 18A2, which is very famous in Holland for the international showjumper Napels of Gerco Schröder.

Just as this incredible pedigree suggests, Cobra jumps in an uncomplicated, easy manner with a lot of scope. In every jumping round his co-operative character is a shining example of attitude and intelligence. At the World Championships for 5 year olds in Lanaken 2002, Cobra was Reserve Champion. He bettered this top performance yet further in 2003 by winning the World Championships for 6 year olds in Lanaken ridden by Mathijs van Asten. Cobra started jumping at1.40 m. level with Peter Geerink and had several high placings.
