Start of the jumping season for Milano de Flore

 

Milano de Flore (x Carthago) and rider Ricardo Dircie have started the jumping season participating in all the top category events thus far.  Courses included 1.45 meter and 1.50 meter events where they successfully managed to classify and prize in all events.

Young Horse Championships

 

The IX New Horse Championships organized by the Argentine Equestrian Federation and the Argentine Breeding Association started this past month with the first of a series of 11 events throughout the year. 

 

In the 5-Year Old Category (Category I), there were a total of 11 Tatabra’s, including 7 offspring of Milano de Flore (x Carthago), 3 of Dimitil de Terlong (x Narcos II) and 1 by Tatabra Luftballon (x Cor D’Alme II Z).  The performance of all the Tatabra's was very satisfying.

 

3 Tatabra’s participated in the 6-Year Old Category (Category II) event, including 2 offspring by Dimitil de Terlong who cleared the class flawlessly.  The stud’s stallion Quitender (x Quidam’s Rubin) also participated in this class after having very successfully reached the finals of SERIES I in 2009.  Quitender took right off where he left in 2009, clearing all obstacles.

 

 

Sporting news from around the world

 

Trading Places (Tatabra Krimi – x Dimitil de Terlong) continues to succeed, having won the 1.40 meter ‘Aiken Spring Classic’ on April 21st.

 

French Twist (Tatabra Laika - x Dimitil de Terlong) had a great weekend at the ‘SCHJA Benefit’ in South Carolina having won a U-14 event and other events.

 

A recent visit to Colombia allowed us the opportunity to get a first-hand look at the success of Tatabra products in that part of the world.  Among others, we were able to see Tatabra Max (x Dimitil de Terlong) ridden by Diego Vallejo and Tatabra Overland (x Greenjinsky)) ridden by Fernando Gomez Prada.  We also had the opportunity to personally congratulate Eduardo Muñoz who, together with Tatabra Libertino (maternal brother of Tatabra Soho – lot 2 at the upcoming auction), successfully participated at the dressage events of the South American games 2010 and secured an individual bronze medal and the led the Colombian team for the team Gold medal.
