This blingy gelding is by the exciting young stallion, Fidelio. Fidelius will be an amateur's dream horse, regardless of your ambition. Are you looking for a sure thing in a foal? Do you want talent and fun? Uncomplicated? A Labrador Retriever-like temperament in your next partner? This is your boy! E-mail us for a short video clip.
Fidelius has the conformation, style, jump and mind to be your next Derby horse and the scope and power to be your next A/O jumper. His temperament has been EASY from Day 1.
Fidelius' sire, Fidelio, is by the Grand Prix jumper, Torino, who was recently purchased by US Olympic-medal winning rider Anne Kursinski. Torino is also the only imported stallion in the US who features both of the highly sought after stallions Heartbreaker and Cassini I.
Fidelio is gifted with a powerful jump, dressage-quality gaits including his sire's 10 canter. And even as a young stallion, Fidelio has an easy-going temperament with a high degree of rideability (we know, we raised him!).
Fidelio carries the hallowed Capitol-Caletto nick that has produced today's showjumping phenoms including Cassini I & II, Dobel's Cento, Cumano, Eurocommerce Berlin and Indoctro among others. He also features two crosses to the indomitable Cor de la Bryere.
Fidelius' dam is a proven producer of top competition horses and high quality foals. A level 7 jumper before a pasture injury cut her career short, Neah Bay throws her jump and her extreme born-broke temperament to her offspring. Her first daughter is a successful upper level jumper and in the Hanoverian Jumper Breeding program scoring a 9,9 for her jumping. All of her foals have been premium. Most recently, her filly by Coconut Grove was Reserve Champion filly of the BWP North American Tour and another filly by Baron Von Gogh received the 3rd highest Yearling Filly score of the tour. Neah Bay's foals are truly a gift with their friendliness, their trust and their desire to please.
If you decide to purchase and do not have the time or facility for a youngster, we provide reasonable short and long-term boarding/care options in Kentucky's premium Bluegrass area of Lexington.
