Pianola R

Further Information

Pianola R is a very unusual presentation and represents a product from a rarely seen hidden herd of mares. These youngsters are eventers and are produced by Heath, for Heath, and until recently have had little or no promotion. Promise R is an amazing mix of Olympic dressage bloodlines in Silvano N who competed in the Grand Prix dressage at the Sydney 2000 Olympics for Holland and Flemmingh who is the sire of Lingh with Edward Gal and Krack C with Anky van Grunsven. Both Silvano and Flemmingh however are pure jumping bred and so although Promise R (Pianola R’s sire) at first glance is a dressage stallion he does jump like a stag with great technique, agility and watchfulness. Song R (Pianola R’s dam) is by Sanction who also sired Flame, who with Heath in the saddle won most of the major three-day events in Australia including Adelaide 4-star. The dam of Sanction is Sasha who is by Sir Dane. Sir Dane was the sire of Stirling Shade who with Heath in the saddle a long time ago was two-times the Australian three-day event champion. Pianola R has an older full-sister called Peaches R who has been kept on by Heath with a view to competing at 4-star level eventing. Pianola R is so bred to be an eventing superstar! This is the way of the future. A wonderful opportunity.
