CELANO

Celano expresses tremendous scope, three good basic gaits and a fantastic character. In 1994 Celano was 4^th at the Bundeschampionaat ridden by Rene Tebbel. In 1995 he was approved by the KWPN and received a very good performance test report. Celano, ridden by Rob Ehrens, has meanwhile many sporting performances. In 1998 he was near the top in the Dutch Championships in Hoofdorp and also, amongst his other successes, 6^th in the Grand Prix at Champion Arnhem and 2nd in the Grand Prix in Leeuwarden. In 1999 he had several successes, among them, Beek, Mierlo, Zelham, Nunspeet and Hengelo. In Amsterdam he won the 1.50m and in 2000 he was the Best Stallion in Zwolle, 4^th in the CHIO in Den Haag and 7^th in the Grand Prix in Lummen. Zwolle 2001 he defended his title and was once again hailed as Best Stallion 2001. In 2002 Celano participated in another two competitions, Rastede and Rotterdam, where he showed just how fantastic he is. Meanwhile we have retired the stallion from the sport and he is wholly available for his stud duties.

The progeny of Celano express good movements, a good character and nice types. They are very rideable and portray a lot of jumping scope. In the meantime his offspring are very convincing in the sport. We become wide-eyed time after time with, for example, Olana Fortuna (Celano x Nimmerdor) who won the IAN-trophy for four year old showjumpers in Ermelo, Okasa Fortuna (Celano x Wellington) who became reserve champion at the FPP. Omy's Boy (damsire Grannus) became 'Z' jumping champion with the KNF ridden by Hank Melse and Jeroen Dubbeldam recorded several victories with the mare Ochinda (damsire Ahorn). Celano’s offpring also took the first place in Zwolle (2004) at the Offspring Championship. The fourth place at the Gelderse Championships was good for the selection at the Nationale Championship. In 2004  at Neustadt a/d Dosse, a son was found the best jumping stallion of the Stallion Selection. Celano stands at the top of the KWPN jumping index for stallions bred by other studbooks.

Celano's sire, the fantastic grey Capitol I, is the sire of numerous international showjumpers such as Concorde, Cartier, Calle and Curtis. Additionally he is the sire of the approved stallions CarthagoZ, Carolus I and II, Cassini and Indoctro. Capitol died in 1999 at 24 years of age. The damline of Capitol I is one of the best in Holstein. Folia, the dam of Capitol I, has unlimited jumping scope and is a daughter of the very successful 'S' jumping stallion Maximus and the Ramzes mare Vase. Vase is a full sister of the showjumper Romanus who was very successful in '60 with H. G. Winkler. In 1993 the stallion Lord died at 26 years of age. A stallion who has made breeding history with offspring such as Livius, Lord Incipit, Loyal, Lugana etc. That Celano has inherited his scope, technique and balance with a fine character from these bloodlines speaks for itself.
