By the end of 1999, Pilot's progeny had earned a staggering
DM 6,250,000 ( $5,125,000 AUD).
Pilot’s breeding influence exceeds Westphalian borders. He is
represented in almost all German breeds. In 2005, he was honored
with a life-size monument in front of the Westphalian horse center
in Münster-Handorf.

Auction/Classification in August 1998 and was one of the highest priced
mares that year and imported to Western Australia.
Coriander,
is probably best known and respected for producing the quietest minds in Holstein. He ranked as the leading sire of sporthorses for all of Germany in his age group three years in a row.
Even though in his stallion performance test Coriander showed
exceptional talent as a jumper, it was apparent that he was even
more suited for dressage. He was trained first by H. Peter Mohr,
then went on to show under Wolfgang Schade for the
Holsteiner Verband, through International Grand Prix.
Coriander has produced many State Premium mares and
7 Approved stallion sons, including Cappucino, and Carlino.
Coriander is known for producing very rideable horses with
exceptional movement. He produces elastic movers with deep
and effective shoulders.
Caretino,
has been one of Germany's top stallions, producing horses that have excelled in both advanced dressage and jumping competitions. In the 2001 WBFSH rankings of top jumping sires, he was ranked #5 and was the youngest, at 18 years old, in the top ten. With more than 100 offspring, known for their astonishing movement and jumping ability, Caretino has 18 approved sons and 114 daughters, of which 12 became German State Premium. Caretino was one of four to be accredited as an approved KWPN stallion without having been presented at the Stallion Show nor evaluated on the constitutional requirements of the KWPN.
He won the 1998 Holstein State Show Jumping Championship
that, in turn, qualified him for the Federal German Championships
in Mannheim and won the event. Shortly afterwards he became a
successful international jumper with rider Bo Kristoffersen. Their
efforts included 40 placings in national and international
competitions, and as part of the Danish Nation's Cup team at Gera in
1992, they brought home a fourth place finish.
By 2001, 12 of Caretino's offspring had competed at the international
level including AK Caridor Z (Jos Lansink), Crocodile Dandy
(Alison Firestone), Chandra (Sören von Rönne), Toyzrus
(Jill Henselwood) and Ballerina 124 (Marcus Merschformann).
His is son Camirez (Marcus Merschformann) won the 2001
Hamburg Derby, one of the most demanding events in the
international circuit. In dressage Caretino has also proven himself well with the approved sons Cheenook, Carpaccio and Cockney who are considered some of the best movers ever to have entered the sport.
