It is with a heavy heart we are writing this post.

After a battle we thought she won against an impacted colic we sadly had to lay to rest one of our beloved broodmares, Vimy (aka Blanketyblankblank) and with her we also lost her 2023 in utero foal.

She was young with a promising broadmare career ahead of her. She had only produced 2 foals, both foals are stunning with amazing temperaments. She was a great mom to her foals and they will carry forward her lineage with pride.

We will miss you my big beauty 💔

English Farao (Teddy) Oldenburg GOV c**t by Royal Beach Farao out of Zina Street born June 27, 2021. This boy has lovely action in his trot and a nice uphill canter.

This c**ts pedigree has a strong European influence for performance breeding on both dam and sire side. Royal himself has had a long career in competition, competing at the 1.60m on the Canadian Equestrian Team and was able to easily retire to the Hunter ring and continue with top performances. Zina Street pedigree has produced performance horses in Eventing (CCI3) Show Jumping (1.40m) and Intermediate Dressage.

He will excel in the show ring and with his "in your pocket" personality he will not disappoint as a partner.

Royal Beach Farao

This incredible European bred 16.3h Mecklenburg stallion, has top show jumping (Gotthard) and dressage (Apollo) bloodlines. Royal is athletic, reactive, fast, respectful, powerful, flexible, versatile, rideable, and has an amazing temperament with the biggest desire to please.

A World Cup Showjumping Finalist and International Hunter Derby Championship Finalist, Royal Beach Farao has proven his versatility and exposed his wonderful temperament time and again. Farao is powerful, scopey, elastic and beautifully balanced. He encompasses the standards of his rare breed, style, stamina, a good character and lively well balanced temperament.

Royal impressively retired from competition sound at the age of 20, where he saw the winners circle in the Grand Prix ring and Nations Cup in Europe, the USA and Canada under 5 different riders. He then successfully changed gears and transitioned to the hunter ring and competing in Hunter Derbies, Adult Equitation and A/O Working Hunter classes, carrying many amateur riders to the winner’s circle.

Royals passes to his offspring his athleticism, versatility, temperament and so much more. He is a sure bet for mare owners looking to produce a hunter, jumper or dressage star.

Take advantage of this incredible opportunity to breed to a World Class stallion that has been a sound, user friendly and consistent performer at the highest levels in multiple rings on 2 continents.

Royal is available by fresh cooled semen (collection and shipping not included) approved Mecklenburg, Oldenburg GOV, CSHA
