Akzent II was prized for carrying on the ‘type’ of the Trakehner Absatz: A noble head and appealing face, ideal neck and saddle position and a good shoulder, combined with a light-footed way of going. His dam was by the Thoroughbred, Waidmannsdank, who was one of the most influential Thoroughbreds of the post-war period in Hannover. He was for many years the leading Thoroughbred sire of licensed stallions and head stud book mares, and second only to Der Löwe as a sire of competition horses. Not surprisingly, Akzent II scored very highly for type and rideability |
