Silvio passed stallion performance test at Adelheidsdorf in 1990 ranking 7th out of 70 stallions. He was 30th in Dressage and 2nd in jumping scoring a jumping index of 138.78. According to 2000's FN yearbook he is holding a dressage index of 129, jumping index 107, total index 118. While his most successful children are all showing jumpers there also have to be a lot of progeny that is more talented for dressage (see dressage index).
So far he has procuded 13 licensed stallions 12 of them approved: Sergeant Pepper, Simba, Sir Landadel, Sterntänzer, Sesostris, Sinatra, Sir Lui, Sunday Boy, Silentio, Sir Holtrup, Sir Oliver H and Sunrise. There are 17 daughters who received an SP-award.
Regarding breed value there are significantly positive indices for how he improves type and riding horse points (142), improvement of limbs (107) and jumping talent (164) while the dressage ability is considered average in his get. Interestingly enough this data differs from his breed value due to offspring in competition which brought him a way above average dressage breed value. This might indicate his offspring takes longer to develop and is rather successful in actual dressage tests than material classes and other young horse tests.
2003 update: Dressage index 111 jumping index 123. Daughters registered as broodmars with the Hanoverian Verband 94. 14 of them SPA/SPS.
