SILVANO
(GER) - click to enlarge!
“Silvano's best form came on going ranging from good to firm
to soft. There cannot be many horses who have clocked up as many
air miles in a single year as Silvano did in 2001, and the fact
that he came back with prize-money in all but one of his races in
USA, Europe, Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia is a tribute to
his own toughness, as well as to the skill and enterprise of his
connections.”
