Exclusivo (or Ivo to his friends) Spent his earlier life as a highly trained police display horse living in southern Spain and Madrid. I bought him in 2004 bringing him to England and he continued his journey to South Africa when I returned to Africa in 2006. He has the most wonderful temperament and has even been seen assisting at the birth of some of my lambs. I have competed him lightly and produced several musical displays in the UK and here in South Africa and he has amassed a fair amount of rozettes. He has mainly been trained in classical dressage, with good lateral work, passage, piaffe, and spanish walk, but also jumps well and is very well behaved and brave on out rides.
Ivo has only recently been used as stud and so far has one two year old filly and two yearlings on the ground, with six foals due this year. His offspring so far are all well built and seem to have inherited his wonderful temperament.

Loro comes from the area near Lisbon in Portugal . He spent his earlier life as a very forgiving and gentle, trained school horse in a classical riding establishment owned by Dom Francisco Braganca. For 3 months each year for many years Loro was also Dom Braganca's stud stallion as he has exceptionally good bloodlines. His foals have proven popular at home in Portugal and some have also been exported.
Loro gave me my first introduction to the Iberian breeds and I was glad to be offered him recently, when a new stud stallion was purchased for his previous home. He has fantastic conformation and wonderful paces including a spectacular trot extension. I hope to start competing him within the next few months.
So far he only has one South African born filly, but this will soon alter.
