"Very typey, tasteful stallion with intelligent, refined face; full of harmony in the proportions of the exterior. First Class mover. The characteristics of the interior are accordingly outstanding. Excellent in temper and character; outstanding riding horse characteristics. Arogno is considered a marker stallion of the Trakehner breed, of the post-war period. He supplied, despite a lack of opportunity in the beginning, 6 approved sons of very considerable quality and many registered mares. His descendants are usually very typey, strong in body and foundation and excellent in suppleness and momentum in their gaits. Often the outstanding points in his Thoroughbred dam are apparent. In size and framework, a certain range of variation is to be observed. His children generally are of the very best riding horse type."
