\"NumeroUno\"<\/a><\/h3>\n

1995 1.69 Bay<\/strong><\/p>\n

Breeder: M van Deurzen<\/strong><\/p>\n

Libero\u2019s son, Numero Uno completed his performance test at Ermelo where he received a 9.0 for canter and scored an average of 8.5 for the jumping tests. According to Jenneke Smit in her article Numero Uno \u2013 Sire of the Highest Calibre <\/em>(IDS International, June 2011) he was described at the time as \u2018an honest, reliable and willing stallion. He demonstrated a powerful, very balanced and elastic canter, with good collection. In his jumping evaluation, he was quick off the ground, demonstrating abundant push and clearing the jumps well. He also was very careful, and he showed abundant scope.\u2019<\/p>\n

Lord Calando<\/em><\/p>\n

His dam Jolanda, like the Olympic showjumping stallion Lux, descends from Lord Calando. Grand dam Feinschnit (Ahorn) produced, in combination with Gondelier, the national showjumping horse Kapitol, who as a five-year-old, competed well at the World Championship for Young Horses at Lanaken. The mother line continues through the well-known stallion Farnese to the mare Fernsicht (Ladykiller xx), who is a full sister to the stallion Lorenz.<\/p>\n

This famous Holstein mare line, which is registered under number 429, also produced the stallions Aldato (Anblick xx), Heidelberg (Ladykiller xx) and Benedictus (Benvenuto xx).<\/p>\n

Numero Uno was a moderately successful international competitor with Marco Kutscher for three seasons \u2013 from 2004 – 2006. They mainly competed in 1.35 \/ 1.45 speed and handiness classes. The pair had two wins \u2013 1st<\/sup> in a 1.35 knock out at Zurich CSI**** in 2006 and 1st<\/sup> in a 1.45 speed and handiness class at Verona in 2005.<\/p>\n

As a breeding stallion Numero Uno has been a star. He is the sire of approved KWPN stallions namely Tygo (Purioso), Unaniem (Voltaire) a winner of the KWPN stallion performance test, Van Gogh (Bernstein), Vi\u00ebnto Uno W (out of a Wisconsin mare \u2013 now gelded), the winner of the main KWPN licensing Vincenzo (Ekstein) and Warrant (out of a Nimmerdor mare). Warrant is the sire of the 2011 stallion selection champion, Durrant, who is from Warrant\u2019s first crop.<\/p>\n

Dutch A_Team member Tamino at the London Games<\/em><\/p>\n

In 2011, two of his sons from his first year at stud, Tamino and Tyson, were members of the Dutch A-Team. Tamino (out of a mare by Farmer) had numerous wins in 2010, including the Grand Prix of De Steeg. Tyson (out of a Voltaire mare) won the Grand Prix of Mechelen, Stockholm, Maastricht, Leszno and Lisbon.<\/p>\n

Other Numero Uno\u2019s who competed Grand Prix include Katharina Offel\u2019s Tico (Celano), 2nd<\/sup> in the Grand Prix van Pforzheim; Take Off (Indocto) with Eric Lamaze; Talk About Me (Hamlet) who competed at the European Championships with Dimitry Berestov; Tobalio (Jacorde) who won the Grand Prix of Valkenswaard with Tom Brinkman, and Take One (Karandasj) who won the 1.50 Grand Prix of Lake Placid with Chirstine Tribble McCrea.<\/p>\n

Other Grand Prix competitors include: Tosca (Zortin) and Margie Eagle, Tia Maria (Nimmerdor) and Jos Verlooy, Timo (Damiro) and Tim Gredley, Tinky Winky (Zeppelin) and Leon Thijssen.<\/p>\n

He also produced some international stars out of his second crop, born in 2001, including the licensed stallion, BMC Unaniem (Voltaire) who with Ben Schr\u00f6der was 5th<\/sup> in the 2011 GP of Amsterdam before being sold to Athina Onassis, and Urgent III (Julio Mariner xx) ridden by Steve Guerdat \u2013 the pair won a 1.50 class at Vigo.<\/p>\n

Numero Uno – handsome…<\/em><\/p>\n

Jenneke Smit describes the attributes he passes on to his progeny: \u201cNumero Uno is a successful breeding stallion that convincingly passes on his handsome conformation, movement and exceptional jumping talent. His offspring often have a slightly sunken topline and are known for being sensitive.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHis ability to pass on conformation and movement is above average with scores of 105 and 107, respectively. Remarkably, Numero Uno consistently passes on good rectangular-shaped conformation with a long, well-muscled neck, a straight croup, and angled hind legs. His offspring typically inherit an elastic trot and a big canter, In free-jumping evaluations, Numero Uno offspring are noted for their good reflexes, excellent body use, carefulness and abundant scope. According to the annual overview of the ability tests (IBOP and EPTM), Numero Uno scores very highly as a sire. In fact, he is the most influential jumper sire of mares which have participated in the IBOP\u2026 Numero Uno offspring also excel in the mare inspections. Of the 232 mares accepted into the Studbook, 55% hold a conformation predicate, among them 56 ster mares, 32 provisional keur mares, 15 keur mares and 24 elite mares. Forty earned the sport predicate (jump), and 100 received the PROK predicate.\u201d (Jenneke Smit – Numero Uno \u2013 Sire of the Highest Calibre<\/em>)<\/p>\n

At the 2008 KWPN stallion licensing, he was awarded \u2018keur\u2019 status, three years later he was awarded the preferent predicate for excellence as a sire \u2013 making him the youngest stallion in the past ten years to receive the KWPN preferent predicate.<\/p>\n

Numero Uno was ranked 9th<\/sup> on the 2013 WBFSH jumping stallion rankings on the basis of 38 international competitors. The standout star, with 1103 points, was Tamino (out of a Farmer mare) who took Marc Houtzager to the 2010 WEG, the London Olympics (=9th<\/sup> on the individual standings) and 7th<\/sup> in the 2013 World Cup final. The pair were members of the winning Dutch team at Aachen 2013. On the 2014 standings, Numero Uno had dropped to 33rd.<\/p>\n

On the 2015 WBFSH standings, he was back up to 30th with Van Gogh is best points earner.<\/p>\n

Marco Kutscher rode both father and son: \u201cNumero Uno was super nice, he was also a very pretty horse, super nice in the flat work. Maybe he didn\u2019t have the biggest scope, but he was winning 1.45 \/ 1.50 and now he is very successful as a breeding stallion.\u201d\"marcoNumeroUno\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cVan Gogh is a little bit more scopey than his father, but also a little bit more slow. Numero Uno was also one for speed classes. Van Gogh has become faster in the last few months, but he is not as quick as Numero Uno was. But he is scopier, and you can\u2019t have everything. I am lucky that I have him. He is a stallion and you have to watch out for that, always a bit naughty, he wants to attack you, but in a fun way. You know what he is doing, so he is not dangerous and he is super nice to ride.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe can do all the things they ask in Grand Prix \u2013 piaffe, passage, one time flying changes. I can\u2019t do these things, but he can do these things with Manni (Manni K\u00f6tter the famous seldom seen figure who helps some of Gernany’s very top jumping riders with their horses..<\/em>.) He is a very nice horse.”<\/p>\n
