The Elite 1.60m International Grand Prix Stallion
Coriandolo di Ribano (Cassini II x Baldini I) stands as a true modern champion of raw power, exceptional athletic integrity, and world-class heritage. Bred in Italy by Giovanni Colonna, this phenomenal bay Holsteiner stallion commanded global attention with his infinite scope, structural bone, and relentless drive to clear any fence in front of him.
Performance Career
Partnered with Lauren Tisbo, Coriandolo di Ribano built a stellar reputation across North America’s most challenging 1.60m courses. The highlight of his early career with Tequestrian Farms came at the $100,000 Hudson Valley Jumper Classic, where he put down a breathtaking performance to grab the blue ribbon as the only clear round in the jump-off.
He proved his elite championship credentials on the international indoor stage by securing a brilliant 2nd Place Finish in the Longines FEI World Cup Qualifier at the National Horse Show in Lexington, KY. Renowned by commentators for his signature jumping style, Coriandolo consistently demonstrates the power required to jump any course in the world.
Genetic Profile
As a breeding sire, Coriandolo di Ribano passes down a powerful, definitive genetic hallmark: relentless care over fences, a massive engine, deep structural bone, and an intense desire to fight for his rider. Sired by the legendary Cassini II—one of the absolute cornerstones of modern Holsteiner performance breeding—Coriandolo blends classic European power with the modern speed and agility demanded by today’s Grand Prix tracks. His genetic profile makes him an exceptional cross for breeders looking to inject ultimate scope and extreme athletic bravery into their mares.
Breeder's Note
Coriandolo di Ribano represents a tremendous opportunity for North American breeders looking to anchor true, sovereign power into their lines. Backed by the unmatched performance blood of Cassini II and the legendary damsire Baldini I, Coriandolo passes on massive physical scope, substantial structural soundness, and an incredible work ethic.
He is highly recommended as an optimal genetic match for blood-type performance mares or lighter, sensitive mares that need an injection of raw athletic bone, supreme vertical power, and unshakeable bravery across open water and technical combinations.
