Ferro
Olympic Ferro is one of the best dressage stallions in the world. Ferro produces champion dressage horses year after year, and is one of the top producers of national and international sport horses.
Ferro is known as the `Black Pearl` of The Netherlands, and the KWPN are justifiably extremely proud of this fabulous stallion. He can be relied upon to produce beautiful, talented offspring of the highest quality, with fantastic top-lines, elegance and presence.
Ferro has competed and achieved at the highest levels of dressage, winning team silver and individual fifth at the Olympic Games in Sydney in 2000. Amongst his many other successes, Ferro was the winner of the World Cup in Berlin and the Neumunster World Cup final, and has won several Grand Prix and Grand Prix Specials throughout his career. Ferro is renowned for consistently achieving high scores for piaffe and passage, and was awarded the highly coveted `preferent` predicate by the KWPN at the age of 17.
In 2001 Ferro produced two stallions in the top 10 of the KWPN stallion show, one of which achieved the highest price at the subsequent auction, the other of which was reserve champion at the stallion show.
Ferro currently has eleven approved stallions with the KWPN, and many other approved stallions outside the Netherlands. In Ermelo, at the Dutch Championship of three year old mares, he had three daughters in the top 10, as well as a mare out of a Ferro-daughter (Jerondine) and a mare out of a Ferro-son (Métall) in the top 10. In Den Bosch stallion selections in 2001 the champion stallion was a Ferro son.
From his first season Ferro has four of his progeny competing at Grand Prix level, including Jarwo, famed for winning several Grand Prix with scores above 70%. Renowned Ferro sons include Métall, Negro, Rousseau and Rhodium.
