Looking for an outstanding stallion..
I am still looking for a first class stallion, more than fourteen years after having acquired my first US mare. I came across many outstanding stallions during these years, but I was never lucky enough to acquire one. The Davenport stallions Popinjay CF, Javera Thadrian, Triermain CF and Daedalus LD were some of these. Also the Ma’naqis RB Bellagio, which I saw, and Dakhala Sabiq from the breeding of Jeanne Craver, which I did not see. They must have been something else, judging from the photos.
Proud carriage of head and tail, sparkly eyes, deep jowls, a slight arched neck, high withers, a short back, a deep girth and a long hip are a must. Have you recently seen a horse with these features?
This is the perfect definition how a stallion should be,today It’s not easy to find
I’d be interested to know what you think of WP Aulsovain
I have seen him during the ak convention 2018 : Davenport stallion Ponpinjay. He is everything you say Edouard. Been years i had seen such a superior stallion. 10 yaers ago when i finaly got to see the Egyptian Ibn Barrada. And 20 years ago when i saw two Egyptian of the same caliber : Ashri al Ahmed and UP Mobaris. All of them have been not only matching these criterias but also passing on to their progeny. Which is even more important for breeding stallions
I agree on Popinjay. He is first on list. Too bad he is ageing.
Would you consider contacting Maria to see if Popinjay’s semen is freeze-able?
He is one of my favorites, too, ever since I saw him as a 4-yr-old at the Preservation Breeders’ Symposium in Illinois.
(If only Dahkhala Sahra had been able to have a colt, what a dandy he might have been.)
