NCh. Silovik+//

Silovik is a significant source for some of the most treasured and diverse Russian bloodlines in the world.

Bred from a lineage of Russian elites, Silovik is sired by the elegant grey stallion Maklaud, whose ancestry includes some of the most revered names in Russian Arabian history. Maklaud is the son of Mambera, who in turn is by Argon—a stallion known for producing athletic and refined offspring. The paternal line traces back through Prostor, Magma, and Mastak, reflecting a legacy of strength, movement, and type. On the dam side, Silovik is out of the chestnut mare Stepen, a daughter of Parusnik and Serenada. Stepen’s bloodlines feature notable Russian champions such as Naftalin, Drug, and Prikhot, all of whom were known for their substantial influence in both the show and performance arenas. The resulting pedigree is one that blends elegance with athleticism, producing a stallion with not only a regal bearing but also the aptitude and trainability necessary for a competitive career.

Silovik’s show career is a testament to his versatility and talent, particularly in the discipline of dressage. He began his journey at the Introductory level, where he quickly claimed champion titles and set the tone for what would be an accomplished competition record. As he advanced through the ranks—Training Level, First, and onward through Fourth Level—Silovik consistently brought home top honors. His performances at events such as the North American Dressage Tour, Dressage at Dawn, and the Mist Haven Dressage Series earned him numerous champion and reserve champion titles. In the upper levels of competition, Silovik continued to shine, achieving victories at Intermediate I and placing as reserve champion in Intermediate II at highly regarded events like CCDF Ornago and Klexos Dressage. His efforts culminated in the prestigious Dressage Federation Gold Medal, an accolade awarded only to horses that demonstrate consistent excellence across the upper levels.

In addition to his dressage career, Silovik has excelled in halter classes, earning the Arabian Horse Society’s Legion of Excellence. He has taken senior stallion championships in several international shows, including the Arabian Horse Society events in Kuwait and Ajman. These accomplishments highlight his exceptional conformation and type, confirming his value as both a show horse and a breeding stallion.

As a sire, Silovik has begun to leave his mark on the next generation. Among his progeny are Bozena, a refined grey mare out of Biserka; Marinka, a striking black filly out of Mariposa; and Shahbrys, a bay mare with tremendous potential, out of the domestic Arabian mare Sabriel. These offspring carry forward his hallmark traits—elegant movement, balanced structure, and a calm yet competitive disposition.

Silovik remains a shining example of Russian Arabian excellence, combining beauty, performance, and a noble spirit.
