Amado Foals

Amado has been a huge producer of National Champion foals with 2 of them becoming Canadian Supreme Halter Champions.  We can’t ask for more than that.

VA Lola Amada De Luna

“Lola Amada De Luna” is our premium 2022 PRE/ANCCE eligible Bay Andalusian Filly.  She was born in November so she is only 22 months old in the pics and video.  She is already 15.3 HH so she will be taller than her dam “Luz De Luna 2017” for sure.  She is very sweet and easy to work with learning very quickly.  Her sire is the black PRE/ANCCE approved Multi-National Champion stallion “VA Manolete’s Hijo Amado”.  Lola’s dam, although not been shown, is an amazing mare in her own right scoring the top marks the Spanish delegate had ever given for an Andalusian mare for her movement.  The Spanish delegate said that Luna’s elevation and in particular her suspension was the best she had ever seen on any mare EVER.  Huge kudos.  Lola has clearly inherited this stunning movement from both of her parents as Amado has pretty phenomenal movement too.  Lola is IALHA registered and will be inscribed with ANCCE in the next few months.  What a stellar filly !!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

VA Alicante

2019 Bay PRE Andalusian Colt

VA Alicante – is a stunning PRE Andalusian Bay colt out of our Canadian National Champion mare VMF Valencia and by our US and Canadian National Champion stallion, VA Manolete’s Hijo Amado. This colt was absolutely bred for dressage.  He is full brother to National Supreme Champions VA Alejo and VA San Paulo.  He is every bit as good as his brothers and is a perfect combination of the two.  He will be big and powerful like Alejo (16.3HH and excel in dressage) and he is bay and beautiful like San Paulo.  Alicante is currently standing at 15.3HH at 22 months so without any doubt, Alicante will be well over 16.0HH and more likely 16.2HH like his sire Amado.
