Interesting bloodlines !!!

Dancinglite · 08-24-2004, 03:25 AM

As a result of the 2004 Athens Olympics my boy now stands as being one of the few stallions that carries Olympic Medalists in ALL 3 equestrian disciplines.

I don't even know if there are any other stallions that can claim this but I thought it is unique.

Awww! Thats cool! You must be proud! haha! The only cool thing about my mare is her father was in the movie the black stallion. He was the grey horse. The only pic I could find of him was this one, lol.

This is the Andalusian stallion, Dejado (considered by Robert Vavra to have been one of the ten most beautiful horses in the world) He is also my babies great grandpa, on the sires side of course. Dejado must be where Cleo gets her good looks!

This may be a dumb question, Who is Robert Vavra??

And that's great to hear that about your stallion. Now when I talk I can say "I have a friend who's Stallion......"

That is totaly cool too. Your mare was sired by "the Good Horse" in the race scene! He is the one that didn't get into a fight. I just love that movie.
