SIRE: BUGATTI HILLTOP The Elite Hanoverian stallion Bugatti Hilltop is enjoying a meteoric rise to success in both his dressage career and performance as a breeding stallion. At his approval in Verden, Bugatti Hilltop won the dressage section with 140.62 points, receiving 9’s and 10’s for character, temperament, rideability and all three gaits. His performance career includes an impressive finish in the 6 Year Old World Championships and successful debut at Prix St. Georges earlier this year with Michael Klimke. As a result of his outstanding stallion approval, The National Stud of Sweden (Flyinge) leased Bugatti Hilltop for three seasons. There he sired many site champions, including the filly Heidi, who placed 3rd in the Foal Championships and received a perfect 10 for type. His international breeding success continues with limited foal crops in the United States. He sports a long list of Premium foals and inspection site champions, including Berlioz, the country's highest scoring colt for ISR/Oldenburg NA in 2003, and Bianca GGF, Reserve Champion Filly at Dressage at Devon. Bugatti Hilltop is by Bergamon, who also sired the licensed son Baroncelli (out of Matcho-line mare), 4th place finisher at the 2004 5 Year Old World Championships. We are indebted to Hilltop Farm, Inc. of Colora MD, for the generous donation of this service to Bugatti Hilltop and are delighted to have this opportunity to share in Hilltop’s commitment to education.
