Stud fee:  650 Euro     Breeder: Michael Jäger, Herbolzheim Raiser: Sportpferde MK, Jettingen   Pedigree Coriano Corrado I Cor de la Bryère   Option H Lord   O-Hosiana Heraldik xx Caramel xx   Ziola H Lagos   Description Holstein Premium Stallion Contano displays a modern conformation, and he convinced at the 2009 Holstein Stallion Licensing with his ground-covering canter and his scopey free jumping performances. Only 5 of 21 licensed stallions in total were especially honoured, one of them was Contano. The Holstein breeding manager Dr. Nissen wrote in the magazine „Pferd + Zucht“: „The stallion with the most impressive conformation of all…“. Contano’s dam, regional Premium mare O-Hosiana, is a gorgeous, long-legged and sporty mare by top-class stallion Heraldik xx. Contano certainly owes his refined confirmation to this fantastic thoroughbred stallion as via his daughters, Heraldik x has a constantly increasing influence on breeding sport horses. Sire Coriano was Vice Federal Champion at the age of six and later on successful at international level under Judy-Ann Melchior. He descends from trademark stallion Corrado I out of the important mare Option H (Lord/Ramiro). Option H is also known as granddam to the stallions Corofino I + II, to the international top-class jumper Cabrio with Toni Haßmann and to the Holstein Champion stallion Camiros. The Champion of the Holstein Stallion Licensing in 2008 Diarado is also a breeding product out of Option H’s progeny. A huge number of offspring from his first crop of foals confirm that Coriano passes on his jumper capabilities to his offspring. Curtis (Piet Raymakers), Cargho (Felix Haßmann), Joy FPG (Peter Wylde), Carissa (Steve Guerdat) and Condios (Dermot Lennon) shine at international competitions. Baden-Württemberg state stud stallion Cyrano de Bergerac (Franke Sloothaak) is also a Coriano-son. Two Coriano-offspring competed at the Olympic Games in Hong Kong. Approved for Holstein and all South German breed societies. © Gestüt Birkhof · 73072 Donzdorf · Telefon: (+49) 07162-29886 · Telefax: (+49) 07162-25276
