N Offspring:
Gestion Silvano N produces price highlight of Midden
Beemster Auction
Auctioneer and stallion owner Piet Meinen was more than
pleased with the results of his auction in Midden Beemster,
The
Netherlands. Besides the large interest shown by many visitors
and spectators, the 1999 Foal Auction can be seen asa profound
(financial) input/stimulant for the Dutch Warmblood Breed.
Price high light of
this year's auction was Silhouet, a bay filly branded KWPN
but primarily carrying a Holsteiner lineage. The lovely
moving Silhouet is sired by Dutch Dressage Team stallion
Silvano N. Silvano N is a Holsteiner bred sire by Silvester
and is stabled in Germany. Trained
and shown by the Dutch Ellen Bontje, Silvano has been a
paramount contributor to team silver at the 1999 European
Championships.
Silvano is the sire of the wonderful
young KWPN stallion, Prestige.
Shown
here with trainer Edward Gal

Prestige
won the KWPN Stallion Competition at Z-level in 2004.
As a 3-year old he won the
Stallion Testing in Sweden in 2000.He is considered one
of the best young stalioons in Europe....

Height: 171 cm (=approximately
16.3h.)
Silvano N was ridden by Ellen Bontje
for the Dutch equestrian team. Conrad Schumacher (their
trainer)
calls Silvano "the best stallion in the world".
Silvano N was 6th at the Sydney Olympics in Grand
Prix Dressage,
and was part of the silver medal Dutch team in Dressage.
Although Silvano has been
a top European dressage stallion for years, his Silvestor
bloodlines are also known for jumping ability. Silvano
was originally a Grand Prix jumper, until his owner
the late Mr. Neff
of the farm Gestute Im Niedern teamed up with trainer
Conrad Schumacher, deciding to emphasize dressage
with top competitor
Ellen Bontje.
