Duquesa is imported from Spain, and when we first saw just a few photos of this mare as a yearling, we knew we wanted her in our breeding program. Her beauty is legendary, and combined with movement that blew us away, she was the whole package we were looking for in a double dilute brood mare. My eyes water up with pride when I look at her. Imported at 1.5 years old, she has matured into the stunning mare we envisioned. She is tall, beautiful, and a movement machine, with a loving temperament that makes her so special. She loves her humans.
She will be bred at 4 years old for the first time, we believe in allowing our young mares to mature before breeding them. Sire is yet to be determined, and will be chosen very carefully according to our strict requirements.

We first saw Historica in Spain when she was barely over one year old. She was a very curious, beautiful, tall filly. When we saw her movement, which is simply amazing, we knew we wanted her in our small but elite breeding program.
Historica loves her people, and she comes running across the pasture when she sees us. She loves to have all the attention, and does not like to share us with her equine friends. She is easy going, and loves playing with the other horses also. She was imported from Spain together with Duquesa, and they still share a very close friendship. She also has another best friend, one of the older mares in the herd, and often times I will find her in a stall with the old mare and Duquesa, sometimes some of the other mares squeeze in with them as well.
We bought her to cross with our Multiple National, Regional, and National Reserve Champion stallion, Jalisco Dominante. We will not breed her until she is 4 years old, as we want to allow all our young mares time to mature. We are excited about the future offspring these 2 will produce, and will be offering the offspring for sale. Sadly, we can’t keep all of the foals we produce, and we are thrilled to be offering our high quality PRE’s to the discriminating buyer, and a chance to acquire an animal with rare imported lines from Spain.
Verbenera is a one of a kind, all in a class of her own, and bred by Bautista Vich, S.L., in Spain. We imported her from Spain, originally intending to sell her, as she had the best pedigree one could dream of, but she was “not my type”. Something made us hold on to her. Dieter was totally mesmerized with her movement. FEI quality for sure. Such a phenomenal mare, yet at revision, he would not even canter, tried to jump out of the round pen, it was a disaster. I was afraid she would not get revised. We watched her grow, and it was not until she was 6 years old, that she had finally blossomed into the beautiful swan.
I often thought I should take her back to revision to show her off as she is now. She stands 16.1, has amazing movement, is definitely one of our best horses, and has such a great mind. She is a very good mother and has produced one filly for us. We are proud to own a mare of such quality. Her pedigree is second to none. Her sire, Juglar, is qualified and recommended young breeding stock (calificado and joven reproductor recomendado). Her grandfather on the father’s side is Omni, also qualified (calificado), and grandmother is Armas Peineta, qualified (calificado). Her dam, Zeida, is a daughter of Evento, who is one of only a handful of stallions worldwide to hold the most prestigious title of Elite in the Spanish LGANCCE (Spanish studbook) and competing in the Olympics.
Besides being Elite, Evento is also qualified and Best breeding stock recommended (calificado, reproductor Elite, reproductor Mejorante). Evento is a son of Leviton, who is a legendary Military stallion. The mother’s line is mostly Yeguada Militar (Spanish Military Stud Farm). Sadly, on June 16th, 2023, only 2 days after her 6th birthday, she had to be euthanized due to an injury that became infected. We tried everything to same her, she had surgery and several procedures after that, but the infection in her tendon sheath had damaged the tendon, and she was in so much pain, that the only option left was to set her free from her pain. She left behind Ytasca PRO, a bay filly, which now carries on the legacy of Verbenera at our farm.

Bred by the famous Yeguada Vinyet in Spain, out of qualificado bloodlines, Lebrijana is a sight to behold. She has everything you could possibly ask for in a PRE mare. Besides being a dilute mare (buckskin), she is beautiful beyond words, the biggest brown eyes you could wish for combined with a pretty face, correct conformation, 16.3 hands, and yes, MOVEMENT to die for. She is the sweetest mare, definitely not on top of the pecking order, but very easy going and a dream to be around. She is an amazing mother, and her first born colt for us, Ulises PRO, imported in utero from Spain, out of the now deceased isabello stallion Perales IV (he suffered a tragic breeding accident early summer 2019, and had to be put down) is a dream come true.
She has passed on her fantastic temperament, great conformation, and movement. We are retaining Ulises PRO (cream/pearl) as a future breeding/dressage stallion, for our own breeding program. The bloodlines are rare and now even more desirable in the US, no Paco Marti in a colored mare and Ulises PRO (last photo).
Happiness for us is to see her in our small herd and patiently awaiting her next baby. She was bred to our multiple National, Regional and National Reserve stallion, Jalisco Dominante for a 2020 foal. This foal has a 50/50 percent chance of being buckskin, tall, and a mover. Will be available for purchase to the discriminating buyer if a colt, may decide to keep if a filly for our own breeding program.
