Ole` is a great example of horse type & where we want to head with our breeding program. He is all horse in type & has flexible extreme movement not often seen in smaller ones, which he gets from his sire Bolero & dam from her welsh bloodlines. He is well balanced, sound & conformationally correct. Ole` has taken over from his sire Bolero as our main stallion & we are retaining one of his sons to continue on with. Luckily most our mares are not related to these bloodlines, this was done deliberatly so we didn't breed ourselves into a corner & so could keep using the Bolero line.

Bolero has been the backbone of our bloodlines, because of his soundness & consistancy in throwing it & his type, we have gone on to use his sons in our breeding program. With his input of beautiful movement & horse type characteristics he has enabled us to get closer to achieving a consistant type. Also with the small gene he keeps throwing we have been able to bring the size down into miniature without losing the type & big movement as with his son Alqueria Bolero's Ole`.

Manhattan is one of a kind, he is very much a horse in a small package. Because of his type, movement, correctness & sound, balanced conformation we have used him to breed a lot of our mares, which he has stamped well with his characteristics. We could not have got this far in our breeding plan without his input, as he has the ability to throw small without losing his qualities. We have been very lucky with the primary stallions we have used in our breeding program to have been able to find sound well balanced little horses that have the added gift to throw small, leggy, refined, horse types.

Bravo is displaying the characteristics of the spotted gene, with his mottling, sclera & striped hooves & he is starting to frost out in the coat. He has thrown his first foal this season which is a liver chestnut 18 1/4" filly, we are very happy with his first foal.
