Davenport breedings planned for 2019
It’s breeding season again, and a number of great matings are being planned and conducted across the country. Porte CF (Portico x Recherche) is in Southern California with Carrie Slayton who bred him to her two Davenport Haifi mares, Brighton TAH (Ascendant x GH Janet) and ADA Skylarking (“Birdie”, Palisades CF x Lustre CF by Javera Thadrian). They are two of my favorite Davenport mares, photos below, with Birdie on the right.
Carrie also bred Porte to what is now also her Hadba Enzahi RL Zahra Assahara (Portent x Antezzah). We now co-own Zahra, and if the offspring is a filly, she is mine. See a nice video of Porte below. He is owned by Jean Diaz.
Thank you for your nice comments about Brighton and “Birdie,” Edouard. I eagerly anticipated the results of this season’s breedings. It should be pointed out that Porte CF had very recently been diagnosed with EPM when the 2012 video was taken,effecting his movement. He has since been treated and fully recovered.
