Inscribed PRE Colt
Bay

Galeo ADP was bred for the high performance show arena. This talented young colt has the gaits, the power and the pedigree to get him to the top. His friendly temperament and willingness makes him a joy to work with on a daily basis. Galeo's beautiful dam is a Champion PRE mare and was named Campeona Joven de la Raza at Feria and was a National Champion 2 year old mare at Celebration and the highest Scoring Domestically bred horse. His sire Noble is an exceptional son of Grand Prix stallion Gaucho III and Noble is a very successful dressage stallion competing in open classes winning USPRE Grand Champion 1st & 2nd Level, winning High Point 3rd Level, High Score out of 10 horses at 3-1 and places 1st or 2nd in his classes. Noble will be competing at the CDS Championships in October and showing 4th Level & PSG next year.

Galeo will mature into an impressive 16.2 to 16.3 hand horse and with his unique beautiful looks and impressive gaits is an excellent choice for the dressage rider looking for a competitive PRE partner and has a Halter morphology competitor,his correct type and big movement will serve him well.

PRE colts of this caliber do not come along often and if you have ever dreamed of owning and riding a beautiful PRE horse with an outstanding temperament and big powerful gaits to be competitive against any breed you do not want to miss out on him.

** UPDATE ** Galeos half brothers Fainero ADP and Santo ADP are bringing home the blue. Fainero placed first in his 2 year old colt class at IALHA Rainbow Fiesta and in August was named IALHA Region One- 2 Year Old Colt Champion. At Feria del Cabballo he placed 4th in a very large class of 15 colts. Santo ADP had his first show in late August at Celebration and won his USDF DSHB Yearling class and won BEST MOVEMENT and Reserve Champion in the Spanish Morphology class.

Tassajara or Tara as we affectionately call her arrived nice and early and we knew right away that is was a very special filly. Within 30 minutes she was up and nursing and exploring her new world. This cross of Noble with his Gaucho & Indiano lines combined with Solenas Ebanisto and Imperioso D lines has proved to be very potent. We could not be happier with Taras quality, beauty, conformation and movement, combined with her high performance dressage bloodlines. Tara is a filly not to be missed out on as she matures into the great beauty that we know she will become, she is meant to be the cornerstone of your show and breeding program.

Noble GF x Kudu GF

Inscribed Colt
Black/Bay

Santo is the perfect future stud prospect for a new breeder or a breeder looking to add height and competitive show movement to their breeding program. Santo will shed out his winter coat and be a dark rich black/bay (no white) and mature in the 16.3 to 17 hand range. Santo when mature will demand attention with his exotic looks, big movement and height.  He is a contender for the Best Movement class and Functionality class. Combined with his impressive pedigree and being line-bred through Indiano XVIII, he will produce exceptional offspring for his owner.

For the dressage competitor, Santo will be very competitive with the Warmbloods in the show arena; his big ground covering gaits, sport horse type conformation, beauty, and look at me attitude will allow you to stand out amongst the other competitors. Santo can be kept intact as a stallion so that you may realize an income from him to offset your show expenses, but due to his height at maturity, I would recommend an experienced Amateur owner or Professional, or best, gelded for the ultimate show horse for the Amateur owner.  Santo has an outstanding temperament; he is willing and easy to handle on a daily basis. Combine that with his supieror quality, champion pedigree, athletic ability, color, size and overall impression; your potential is unlimited.

Santos sire, Noble GF, comes from a long line of champions; Grand Prix horse Gaucho III, Invasor II 2x Olympic and WEG competitor and 3 time best movement winner Indiano XVIII and has been proving himself in open competition dressage winning his classes along with being named USPRE High Point Challenge winner numerous times and USPRE Overall Grand Champion for 1st & 2nd Level.

Santos dam, Kudu GF proved she had what it takes to be a very competitive dressage mare. She received nearly 70 at Training Level 3 & 4 with barely anytime to properly train her as she was being bred at the same. 

Santo has received weekly ground training since the age of two months and besides the basics he loads in a trailer, clips, bathes and is excellent for the farrier.

No horse owner need fear that the period between birth and backing is ever boring. There is a multitude of practical, fun and showing activities with which to occupy the growing young horse.  All of these activities contribute towards the horse’s adult life and by further strengthening the bond between horse & human.
A quote from Richard Maxwell’s book From Birth to Backing:

Q. People always say you should be very experienced before taking on a youngster. How much experience is enough?

“Time, patience, common sense and intelligent, sympathetic handling can make up for a lack of experience. Anyone can have fun with a youngster if they are confident around older horses and have a good support network in terms of help and advice.  However, if you have any doubts about your experience, you will find it easier to make progress with a youngster which has a naturally confident and laid-back attitude and has been well handled since birth.”

At our farm, all of our foals are raised in open pastures with plenty of space to run and develop strong bone and muscles. Both mares and foals are carefully monitored to maintain optimal health and well being.  All of our foals are handled on a daily basis and have all the necessary ground skills required of a young horse by the time they are weaned. For more information on how we raise how foals see Why Buying a Foal from Andalusian Dressage Partners is a Good Investment.
