“There is a champion in all of us, it is how you chose to find it that defines it”

A very exciting early crop of 2023 foals by BDA Stallion MILTON DES CRESLES 🌟

Milton Des Cresles is one of very few Stallions Standing in the UK who has actually competed at 1m60 level himself!! Here he is, available to British Breeders and standing at ! 🇬🇧

He passes on fantastic comformation, inquisitive, friendly and super athletic types! He also passes on gorgeous heads and uphill neck and shoulders! All have big balanced canters too! 🤩

Milton Des Cresles is also just shy of 57% blood! What more could us breeders possibly want! 😍

Our boy Milton Des Cresles is in from a successful second season at stud.

His first crop have landed this year and are all outstanding. Real modern types with a great head and athletic movers, with humongous characters. Really looking forward to watching them develop in the coming years.

Beginning of the year he went for freezing and it has exceeded all expectations with a number of successful embryo flushes.

We’re so proud and thankful for him and what he keeps achieving in his second career, even if he was a late starter. Big up the Milty!

✨ ZILVEREN ICOON BDA ✨

Anglo European Studbook LIFETIME APPROVED Stallion 🦄 by the late CEVIN Z, out of a Graf Grannus x Beaujolais Dam Line - available Fresh/Chilled & Frozen

Successfully Showjumped up to National 1m40 as a 7yr old with BDA Showjumping Stables, and is now enjoying learning a new trade with the BDA Event Team 🌟

This stallion’s temperament is incredible and he 100% passes on his kind, intelligent and caring nature. He is also an absolute pleasure to ride and his versatility is plain to see 🤩 He is an out and out trier and has the heart of a lion 🦁 This year he is juggling a busy stud season, whilst learning a new trade Eventing. His temperament never faulters and neither does his performance in sport! 🌟

His Youngstock are equally as kind, and talented! Zilveren Icoon BDA passes on fantastic balanced paces, strong uphill canters, super walk and of course, plenty of scope 🙌🏼

A truly wonderful son of the late CEVIN Z, who stands in the UK 🇬🇧 What a huge asset to BRITISH BREEDERS!

Two fantastic ladies have arrived at BDA Eq to start the process of natural covering of our stunning AES ELITE jumping stallion MILTON DES CRESLES (Flipper D’Elle x Verdi x Imam D’or) 🌟

Both International Event Mares, and no other than Laurence Hunt multiple 5* campaigner WIE DONNAS NIIEUWMOED! This is the second 5* Event mare to nominate to Milton Des Cresles this week!! The fact that Milton Des Cresles carries just under 57% blood percentage and is proven at 1m60 Grand Prix is very exciting for breeding future Event Horses that will have it all - scope, power, blood, athleticism and movement (he has the most amazing uphill forearm with a powerful hind leg!) 🥰

So pleased with the first ever crop of foals from our own MILTON DES CRESLES.

All very straight, strong and athletic foals so far!

Here is MORETTI BDA, out of our super talented mare Valora BDA - Valentin R x Graf Grannus x Beaujolais. Valora showed lots of athleticism and heart under saddle which made for an easy decision to continue breeding from her. She is also maternal sister to our ZILVEREN ICOON BDA.

🔸KANSAS🔸

This week we want to help you all get to know Kansas!

Kansas was purchased as a 2yo and is owned by Norwich Coving and Ceilings.

He started his competitive career in 2019 with Kelly in the saddle and produced some amazing results! He was placed twice to qualify for the Burghley Young Event Horse finals as a 4yo where he finished respectively in the top 15 and the highest placed stallion.

Kansas also qualified for the 4 Year Old Eventing National Championship, where he was the highest placed stallion in the final coming 7th!

In 2020 he had a couple outings in between the lockdowns, placing in some BE100 classes and gained his Novice qualification.

2021 Kansas is currently under the saddle of Kyle and we look forward to see the two of them grow as a partnership.

Kansas has had some stunning foals for mare owners and ourselves at BDA Equestrian. We are excited to watch Kansas and his progeny grow in the coming years.

With lockdown and a slow start to the 2021 Event Season, it means that this absolute stunner of a horse, WILLOW BDA (Warrant x Hailo xx) has been able to take some time out of training to head to Twemlows Hall Stud Farm AI & ET Centre to donate an embryo, for Embryo Transfer! 💞

What better stallion match that our own BDA STALLIONS ELITE 5* Olympic Qualified, Selle Francais jumping stallion MILTON DES CRESLES (Flipper D’Elle x Verdi x Imam D’or)!! 🙌🏼🤩

Fingers crossed for a smooth process! 🤞🏼

🌟Milton Des Cresles🌟

Flipper D’Elle x Verdi (SF) x Imam D’or

🔸Here’s a photo recently dug up from the archives of Milton that we thought was more then worth a share to brighten up this weekend!

🔹Milton is from the maternal line of world renowned DIAMANT DE SEMILLY!

🔸Here at BDA Equestrian we’re trying to do our part in these harder times and help out the breeders by including the first collection for the fresh/chilled packages in the stud fee for all 4 of our stallions. We stand by the quality of their semen as a result of successful strike rates each one has!

🔹Get in touch to discuss which one of our Stallions may be best suited to your mare/s!
