His Sire, Gento is a qualified stallion from the famous Military Stud in Jerez. Qualified is rather like elite in the Warmbloods, they have to have produced a certain number of champions/exceptional horses. It’s a step up from being passed for breeding. He is making a name for himself as a producer of Grand Prix dressage horses. The most recognised at the moment, Minero VII, was short listed for the Bejing Olympics. English, American & Canadian Breeders have begun to seek out his stock,
On his dam’s side he descends from the famous Llovera bloodline. In particular, the outstanding mare, Leva, who produced two 5 star Laureate mares, Bruja 1968 & Leva IV in the Spanish book of Merits. Laureate standing is the highest accolade a Spanish horse can achieve. It places these mares above many of the more renown stallions, Leviton, Invasor II & Gaucho III, just to name a few.
This outstanding combination has produced a young stallion with an engaging personality, calm good nature & strong work ethic that endears him to all. He is registered with two international bodies, ANCCE & IALHA.
