Horse: Silverstone
Bith date: 1999

Height: 169m
Approved with: KWPN,
Pedigree: Champion du Lys - Carthago - Renomee Z - Thuswin xx.
Silverstone is a son of Champion du Lys, who won many Grand Prix with Ludger Beerbaum and also won the Derby of Hamburg twice. Furthermore, we find the two time Olympic stallion Carthago, who sires strongly in the jumping direction, then the Ramiro x Gotthard son, Renomee, who also sired more international jump horses. The thoroughbreds Thuswin xx and Anblick xx provide the necessary blood.
The dam Marthago is a real Holsteiner brood mare. She became ‘Keur’ and she received three 8’s and a 9 for jumping in her EPTM test. She also is dam of the approved stallion Chuck Z. Grand dam Aline is the dam of the stallion Laralle and the international jumping horse Corniola. From this family also descends the approved Holsteiner stallion Corrido.
Silverstone received the highest points, during the Stallion Test, ever for jumping in years: scope 9 - technique 8.5 - scope 9.5 and talent for jumping 9. He finished in 1st place for jumping and a 3rd place in the total classification.
With Dennis van Tilburg Silverstone was amazing in the stallion competitions. They won 3 out of the 4 qualification rounds in the stallion competition 2006/2007. In the Stallion competition of 2005/2006 he was placed 2nd.
Silverstone’s offspring sure know how to jump! The mares Bigeunerin and B. Ocinthe placed 2nd and 3rd at the Dutch Free Jumping Championship 2009. In other years his daughters Amina, Zolivia and Zoxalis were placed high in this Championship. Bigeunerin and B. Ocinthe also received high points for their IBOP; Bigeunerin received 84.5 points and B. Ocinthe 83.5 points.
His son Winston was Dutch Champion of the 4 year old jumpers. His daughters Ziewica van de Hermitage and Zanzare became Provincial Champions. Bridgestone RV was Champion of the Young Foal Show in Tolbert.
Bugatti got his approval for the KWPN and placed 6th in the Champions ring of the KWPN Stallion Selections.
