LIBERO H x LORD CALANDO x AHORN HANN KWPN 95.3822, 1.69m, bay, 1995 Breeder: M. van Deurzen, Rips
His sire, Libero H (by Landgraf I), made history by winning the 1994 World Cup Final in Den Bosch in phenomenal style with Jos Lansink. Numero Uno followed in his footsteps, winning his performance test in superior style. He was characterized by his exceptional take-off, technique, and quality.
The damline (Holsteiner stamm 429) traces back via the foundation sire Farnese to the mare Fernsicht (by Ladykiller xx), a full sister to the renowned stallion Lorenz. Following a successful sporting career under European Champion Marco Kutscher, the preferent-awarded Numero Uno developed into one of the most prominent sires in global breeding.
His offspring have been performing at the highest level for decades and continue to do so today. He has produced countless 1.60m winners and Olympic horses, including Tamino, Tyson, Uno de la Roque, Cristello, and Glamour. Our own Van Gogh, winner of the GCT Valkenswaard and the Masters in LA and Hong Kong, further underscores his immense breeding power. With total prize money exceeding 10 million euros, Numero Uno’s genetic legacy remains active and invaluable; he is a stallion who has changed modern breeding forever.
At both the CSI5* in Doha - Al Shaqab and the CSI3* in Oliva, an offspring
of Van Gogh delivered a strong result. In the 1.55m-level class in Doha,
Ibrahim Hani Bisharat finished fifth with a 0/4 result riding Happyness
(Van Gogh x Clinton, bred by Daniëlle Linders and Marcel van Leeuwen).
