Postitive pregnacys for 2009 are now coming in...
Our lovely W/B mare Grand Avoch has just had her 18 day scan and is in foal to the gorgeous
UK Dressage stallion Catherston Springsteen (see Reference Sires)
A huge thanks goes to Angela at Breakaway Stud in Northam for this amasing outcome as
GA is not your usual text book FS candidate.
Angela got this superb result with just one dose on GA's first cycle so I highly
recommened her to any breeders or studs.
*****************
My lovely Laranto/Todvega mare is also home from Mungrup Stud with a PPT to Oratorio.
What a superb cross this foal will be..........
Latest arrival.....

(Source: Trakehners International) The old year wasn't quite over when in mid-December the news was received by Trakehners International from France, that the Trakehner stallion Maestro (one of the last remaining sons of Matador in the world) had passed away.
Maestro Maestro was born in 1987 and was by the DLG champion stallion Matador, out of Maike II by Herzkönig - Maigraf xx - Hansakapitän. His dam line was that of O181B2 Malvenblüte, which originated after WWI in Gestüt Hunnesrück and traces back to Mascotte by Adamas ox, a grey mare at Trakehnen. This particular family also stands for such stallions as Marduc, Magnet, Märchenstein, Marlo, Roland, Merkur, Magister or the young Mon Baron. Maestro, who competed at M levels in dressage as a younger stallion, stood at stud in Germany (e.g. Gestüt Hämelschenburg and Gestüt St. Stephan), in Great Britain (Muschamp Stud) and then later in France for Mr. Green. Long time care taker Anais Sauvage said he was a much loved center of the household and actually roamed free on the farm, more like a giant dog than a breeding stallion.
Maestro Maestro left a number of good performance horses in Great Britain, e.g. Muschamp Impala who competed at advanced levels in eventing. As Maestro was such an international stallion, it is no surprise to see that his son Highfield Vivaldi stands at stud here in Australia. Maestro is also valued for his high quality daughters, like Gestüt Hämelschenburg's excellent Gwendolyn, a proven producer and probably a perfect example of a hallmark of Maestro's heritage: impeccable temperament. Our condolences to Anais and her partner for their loss, and may Maestro rest in peace.
Maestro's legacy: impeccable temperaments (his daughter, Gwendolyn) |
Cayenne in Germany.
The beautiful 2005 grey filly by Condendro(IFS) o/o of our grey AWHA mare Deep Reach has been exported to
Germany with her owners/breeders
Mitch and Dany Wood.
She will be put in foal this seaon to the sensational German "super sire" Coronet Oblensky and then later persue
a showjunping career with Mitch.
Cayenne is the second foal out of Deep to be exported to Europe. Her half brother Allegro who was by the
imported Hanovarian stallion Aramis was sold to Clayton Fredericks who took him back to the UK
Allegro has been sold and is now starting a successful Eventing career with his new owners.
