This elegant and large grey gelding is the "three ring" horse. He has successfully shown in jumpers including national Grand Prix and FEI classes up to 1.45M . He has scored in the 80's in hunters and attended the USEF Talent Search Finals as an equitation mount. Just nine years old in 2025, This horse by Cassini II from our own Celine BF (Diarado-Acorado-Landgraf) who herself was a NAYRC and 1.45m Grand Prix competitor. He was designated premium at his 2016 foal inspection and has been brought along slowly as his bloodlines are known to mature late. Unlimited potential in the jumper arena but with proven ability to compete successfully in other rings.
Contiano BF is designated an "elite" stallion licensed for breeding world wide by the German Oldenburg Verband (GOV-OI) - a rare accomplishment for a USA bred stallion. He also stands for mares from AHHA (Holsteiner), BWP, RPSI, Zangersheild, and KWPN. Contiano BF was Grand Champion of the 2010 German FN authorized North American 70 day Sporthorse Stallion Licensing Test with an overall score of 129.88 including perfect 10's for character and 9's and 9.5's for his jumping technique and scope. His first foal crop produced a fully licensed son (Camelot BF)(BWP) and 2011-2015 has produced an astounding 76% premium foals including four foals of distinction and two designated stallion prospects. The stallion competes regularly at Grand Prix level on the West Coast when breeding schedule allows.
