Milano de Flore's first generation shines at Breeders Cup
Milano de Flore – offspring shine at the Breeder’s Cup
The 2010 Breeder’s Cup jumping final took place on Dec. 4th at the Club Hipico Argentina (CHA) in Buenos Aires.
Milano de Flore’s first generation had earlier managed to secure 4 spots out of the 15 finalists (out of more than 70 participating horses) – making him the stallion with the most horses at the final (25% horses).
The final event consisted of a double course at 1.15m and the results are based on performance (no faults) plus a jury who qualifies based on attitude, potential, strength and class.
Tatabra Rock & Roll (x Milano de Flore / x Fergar Mail) ridden by owner Ricardo Dircie cleared both courses and demonstrated his potential and class, allowing him to secure the Reserve Champion award.

Tatabra Rainbow (x Milano de Flore / x Potencial (WEST)) ridden by Fernando Martinez Zuviria also performed beautifully to come in 4th overall.

Tatabra Rigoletto ((x Milano de Flore / x Hand in Glove) who also classified for the jumping finals and had competed in the dressage championship came in Reserve Champion in the ‘Integrated Event’ – which recognizes the best performing horses in both disciplines.
