Canturano received his license in November 2005 in Neumunster. His sire Canturo, the last son of the renowned Cantus, was in Athens the Olyumpiade 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. Canturano’s dam’s sire Coriano was in 2002/2003 loaned by the Holsteiner Verband to Zangersheide-Leon Melchior’s stud in Lanaken (BEL). Melchior’s daughter July-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 fitted 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, 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 I his report. Bearing in mind these grades, we can conclude that 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?
