UK NATIONAL FUNCTIONALITY CHAMPION AND RESERVE UK NATIONAL CHAMPION STALLION 2010

Sire DESNUDO, Dam SALEROSA XI

Grand Prix trained black CALIFICADO stallion, capable of producing either black or chestnut offspring (Ee aa) and with an already impressive competitive career behind him, having competed successfully (always placed) up to INTER I level but trained at home to GP level.

HABANERO combines the lines of the Yeguada Militar (Spanish State Stud) including the proven movement stallions JENSON and CESAR, with the outstanding traditional bloodlines of one of the oldest Spanish breeders, ARPA (Yeguada Militar and Terry origins). He is one of less than 25 black Calificado stallions in the world and offers the very rare combination of a traditional stamp of PRE, together with superb competition movement.

In 2010 at the UK National Breed Championships, in his first UK outing, HABANERO achieved 1st in every class he entered, including 7 yrs plus stallions, joint highest Movement score of 22, Reserve National Champion Stallion and overall UK National Functionality Champion (combined Morphology, Movement and Functionality/ridden sections). His movement, type and outstanding temperament make him a stallion suitable for any mare - he is a true horse of a lifetime.

HABANERO is now in full time training with Andrew Gould and commencing his UK dressage career in spring 2011.
