The athletic body as a true sign of a top sport horse is at the
disposal of Eurocommerce Canturano. There’s no doubt about it. He
stands in his box full of confidence, his eyes follow every movement
and he is as cool as a cucumber. He knows what’s going on. He knows
what is expected of him in his work. That couldn’t be otherwise
considering his pedigree which is packed with show jumping genes.
Eurocommerce Canturano is a stallion who jumps with power and
suppleness while also showing outstanding ability in dressage. In trot
and canter he displays natural balance and carriage which allows him to
move smoothly between jumps. Eurocommerce Canturano received his license in November 2005 in
Neumünster. His sire Canturo- the last son of the renowned Cantus- was
in Athens the Olympiade horse of Bernardo Alves (BRA). In 2006, they
won the GP of Valkenswaard and they came second in the GPs of Dubai,
Wiesbaden and Rotterdam. Eurocommerce Canturano’s dam's sire Coriano
was in 2002/03 loaned by the Holsteiner Verband to Zangersheide- Léon
Melchior's stud in Lanaken (BEL). Melchior’s daughter Judy-Ann, who was
16 years old at the time, won the national title of the Belgian juniors
at a home competition on Coriano Z in 2003. Unfortunately the contract
ran out and he had to go back to Elmshorn – the stallion had fit his
horsewoman like a glove.
The dam's stock 2067 then goes further back
via Ahorn Z - Fontan - Kadett - Goldschmid -Favus - Famos - Ordner -
Racker - Habitus (Hann). Kadett (sire: Kalif) and Racker (sire:
Amurath) provide an eastern tint. A sister of grandam Zalme produced
Hugo Simon’s derby winner Gondoso. Stock 2067 also produced the
international show jumpers Lausbub and Leonardo of Franke Sloothaak,
Leonidas of Lars Nieberg and Lordon of Luciana Diniz.
A year after
being licensed, Eurocommerce Canturano did his 70-day test in
Adelheidsdorf where, with a total index of 131.86, he finished as
“HLP-Sieger” out of 32 class mates. His jumping index was also good for
first place (135.20 points). His dressage index was a little lower:
118.74 points- with which he nevertheless brought him a seventh place
in this section. In the spring, after completing his 30-day test, he
was licensed by the KWPN with an 8.5 for take-off, an 8 for technique,
a 9 for scope and an 8.5 for aptitude in his report. Bearing in mind
these grades, we can conclude that Eurocommerce Canturano is a stallion
that has inherited jumping talent without relinquishing any of his
basic paces. What more could a show jumping horse breeder desire?
