280 Betalka V

Foaled 02/14/2001; she measures 154 cm.

Mare family: Sardinia

Approved for breeding by Dr. Jaromir Oulehla in 2008.  Betalka is available for a custom foal for you.  We plan to breed her to our stallion 261 Maestoso Samira XXI in 2010 otherwise.  This breeding would yield a foal with all imported bloodlines.

Betalka won 2 blues at Whitings Neck 9/12/09.  She scored 80% in both tests.  She had a 9 on center line and 9s for gaits and impulsion in both.

Betalka went to her first dressage show, outdoors at Evergreen Farm, March 7, 2009.  She scored in the mid-sixties and won a first and a second in her two classes.  Four pictures from the show photographer are posted below.

Betalka attended her very first show at Sulphur Springs, a nearby boarding stable, in September 2008. She went in Englist flat classes and behaved well for a first outing other than to breeding clinics.

Imported from Slovenia in 2005, Betalka foaled a lovely filly by the Slovenian stallion Neapolitano Allegra XXVI (Belasana) and one by 261 Maestoso Samira XXI (Balinna)- both are stunning and sold fast.  Order one in utero!  Meanwhile I am having a blast riding her.

Mother: 138 Betalka I, born 1997at the MARC Lipizzaner Breeding Centre .   As a foal she earned high marks for conformation.  Betalka passed on her very dear, friendly, good temperament  to her daughter.

Father: 54 Siglavy Gaeta II, born 1993, Hosta.  He is the  Arabian type  with an especially good neck, front body and very correct legs.  He is an Elite breeding stallion in the Slovenian Lipizzaner Association.  Bred by Andej Hosta, he shared the first and second places in the category best stallion in the third International Championship of Lipizzaner organized by LIF that took place in Topolcianky 2002.
