Hannibal himself is an all-round performer with tremendous natural jumping ability, outstanding temperament and Trakehner charm. He won his NASTA Performance Test as a four-year-old at Class 1 Elite and rapidly mastered his chosen sport of eventing. Under Swedish international Dag Albert, he competed at Varseveld, Le Lion d'Angers, Malmo, Windsor, Punchestown, Saumur, Blenheim, Fontainebleau, Luhmühlen and the World Cup Final at Pau. Hannibal was on the short-list for the Swedish Olympic Team in 2004.

Hannibal is a versatile and successful sire, reliably passing on his temperament, movement and looks. He has produced champions from every crop and from a wide variety of mares.
