Morningstar Andalusian - Foals, Mares, Stallions

Nochera D | Salanda D | Keara BP | Quizas III | Zan Hannah Jackie

Salanda is our outstanding mover, with the sweetest temperament to go along with her movie star good looks. She has the ability to captivate you with her charisma while just idling the day away in her pasture. Salanda's pedigree reads like a who's who from the famous breeding farms in Spain. Her dam, Quizas was once referred to as the ideal body for an Andalusian mare. While Granadino was the favorite photography subject of Bob Langrish, at 30 he made the cover of two calendars.

Salanda's pedigree reads like a who's who from this famous breeder in Spain. Quizas III by Vasallo (Spanish Champion of Madrid, Supreme champion in Jerez and the highest points in the Book of Merits), Leviton (the most highly regarded Military Stallion of Spain and the producer of more PRE champions than any other stallion to date), Agente (this highly regarded stallion was used as a model for the PRE horse with his expressive elastic movement), Bilbaino III (a Terry stallion and herd sire of Yeguada Cardenas and sire of Vasallo). Today's Olympic and World Equestrian Games PRE horses hale from one or more of these influential stallions.

Salanda is the sweetest mare that I have had the pleasure to meet. She is the best of this breed and I am very lucky to have her here. Salanda would wait at the fence for Quizas to catch up to the herd before she would go out to graze or drink water. She always knows where the foals are and will be seen standing over two of them as they nap with their moms far away, or even in different pastures.
