Hollywoodstinseltown Announced as NRHA $4 Million Sire
The National Reining Horse Association recognizes Hollywoodstinseltown as its newest $4 Million Sire, marking another impressive milestone for the 2004 palomino stallion whose legacy continues to shape the reining industry.
Bred and owned by David Silva, Sr. of Long Grove, Illinois, Hollywoodstinseltown is the product of reining royalty. He is by NRHA Hall of Famer Hollywood Dun It and out of NRHA Hall of Famer Miss Tinseltown, bringing together two influential bloodlines in the sport. That foundation set the stage for both a successful show career and a remarkable impact as a sire.
During his time in the show pen, Hollywoodstinseltown earned $185,886 in NRHA lifetime earnings. His highest-paying performance came in 2010 when he finished fourth in the National Reining Breeders Classic Level 4 Open CRI with NRHA Million Dollar Rider Marco Ricotta, earning $39,000. That same year, he represented the United States at the World Equestrian Games in Lexington, Kentucky, with NRHA Hall of Famer Tim McQuay. The pair brought home team gold and placed fourth in the individual competition, further securing the stallion’s place among reining’s elite.
Hollywoodstinseltown’s influence has only grown through his offspring. With 389 NRHA money-earning foals to date, his impact spans generations and continents. Since surpassing the $3 million mark in 2021, his foals have continued to shine. One standout is Flexing Guns in Town (out of Shesa Fashion Gun), ridden by NRHA Professional Arnaud Girinon. The duo has found great success across Europe, including earning the 2024 NRHA European Level 4 Open Derby Championship and the Reserve title at the 2024 100X European Classic Level 4 Open Derby. Together, they have amassed nearly $115,000 in NRHA LTE.
