Solitair
is a jumping talent with super movements and a very appealing
conformation to boot. At his performance test in Ermelo he received
an 8.5 for his canter and for walk, trot and talent, three 8.0's.
His sire Voltaire (Furioso II) jumped internationally at the highest
level with Jos Lansink and Emile Hendrix. In addition, Voltaire, who
has more than thirty registered products in the Breeding Guide for
international showjumping horses, belongs among the best stallions
in the world. Solitair was bred out of Nigrante, a beautiful
daughter of the legendary Holsteiner stallion Libero H (Landgraf I)
with whom Jos Lansink won the 1994 Den Bosch World Cup finals.
Of the small group of Libero H's offspring, a great many are very
successful in international showjumping of which Numero Uno, Lolita
H, Libertina, Liberty, Maike and No Mercy are known best. Both Maike
and No Mercy were very successful at the 2004 Olympics.
Solitair's dam line carries a large amount of blood through the
influential stallions Abgar xx and Pericles xx. This lineage also
produced several licensed stallions as well as the Grand Prix jumper
Figaro (Leslie Steele).
