Sommernacht is a 2015 born Oldenburg mare by Rocco Granata out of Solo (by San Remo x Florestan x Rosenkavalier). She is bred and was owned by Ingo Pape.

The mare only began competing as a 5-year old in 2020. The mare was in the field as a 3 and 4-year old and only started under saddle early 2020.

Under Pape's assistant rider Greta Heemsoth she made her debut in May 2020 in an A-level dressage horse test in Scharnebeck and qualified for the Bundeschampionate over the summer.

Every single competition Heemsoth and Sommernacht were entered in, they won: Scharnebeck, Okel, Hamburg, and Elmlohe.
