Success on the jumper circuit came easy to Cordini.  He was the 2000 Winter Festival Circuit Champion in Wellington, Florida where he swept the High Preliminary level divisions.  Hilltop Cordini showed his consistency and potential clearly in this arena.

"Hilltop Cordini has a terrific style over fences. He is super rideable and careful. He handles himself over a course with good technique. He's got a terrific temperament - a very easy horse to be around. He is a winner…he really goes for it and has proven that." --Margie Goldstien-Engle

ISR/Oldenburg NA approved Hilltop Cordini for breeding in 1999 and his Performance Test requirements were waived due to his exceptional competition record. His 2002 daughter BW-Cortessa was very successful on the line at Devon. She won the highly competitive OldenburgNA class where horses of all ages competed. Breeders of Cordini offspring have raved about their friendly natures and athleticism.

Hilltop Cordini's sire Cor de la Bryere was coveted in the Hilltop Farm program. This sire of world class athletes all over the world earned lasting notoriety throughout his lifetime and career as a breeding stallion. Cor de la Bryere has offspring competing internationally in both the dressage and jumping arenas and he left a legacy of approved sons and States Premium daughters to carry out his influence. 

With two other sons of Cor de la Bryere available to our breeders, Cordini was sold to a show home and has continued winning on the jumper circuits in Florida and California with his amateur-owner and junior riders.
