The Golden Luso project. Yeh, we have a total of five buckskin lusitano stallions here on the farm - that are all brothers, as well as their sire Jade. This is four-year-old Quartz, who is 17+ hands and, I think, done growing upwards, but he still has lots of muscling up to do.
I hope to exhibit them together one day.
I find Quartz to be a delight to work with.
Not for sale.

This newborn APSL Lusitano (Uriah, CAL) is a genetic powerhouse. Flor D Atela (Soberano) and Onasis (Escorial). Both dam and sire scored high (74+) on inspection. The sire scored 78.5 at Dressage at Devon in hand. Both are fantastic movers - GP quality Uriah is available.

We are in Cascais at the Grande Real Italia hotel, and getting some writing time in this morning. Later this afternoon, we are off to Lisbon to ride with Sofia Valenca and then to dinner.
I will be filming around the hotel and Cascais today, as we are developing a new travel show and need "B roll."
We are looking forward to seeing friends at the horse show later this week and maybe meeting some new people, as well as seeing some great horses!
I am missing the farm - too much time away, but happy to be here. This summer is going to be non-stop busy - but all is good! Pictured below is our yearling PSL Lusitano, nicknamed "Ghost" - who is truly a beauty. He is available.

Yearling PSL Lustiano c**t: Travertine CAL is ready for a new home.
Perlino (Isabella) Lusitano Double creme on a bay.
Travers is a farm favorite. Very quiet, sweet boy - who will be a stunner, with blue eyes and a cream-colored coat. His sire, Jade is at Prix St. Georges. Travers is very athletic and loves playing with the other animals along the fence line. With Veiga in his lineage, he has lots of cow sense. Excellent dressage, Western dressage or working equitation prospect as well as an excellent choice for trails.
Portuguese dressage lineage that includes many GP horses, recommended horses, and stallions of merit.
He has had lots of handling, loves people and is ready for a partner.
Compact, very classic Lusitano. Predicted height 16 hands.
Will need shelter or a stall in the summer months, due to blue eyes and light skin.
Available.

Lusitano stallion Jade is beloved.
Emus, peacocks, geese, chickens, and dogs—it is all good. Jade is chill—just as a well-mannered stallion should be.
And yes, he sometimes gets treats by hand, kisses on his nose, and even occasionally gets to eat grass with permission when I ride. He is not spoiled in the least. We set consistent boundaries but we treat him with kindness and love. Jade is smart - he knows his limits and he values his relationships with humans. He likes being a very good horse. It matters to him.
Not all stallions have to be treated like some domineering monster, or some sort of "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde."
So, whoever wrote that post that circulates around and around about how no one who works with stallions and knows what they are doing would ever give a stallion a treat by hand or not use a chain, etc. - hasn't been in my barn.

Bucksin Lusitano filly born this summer. Will be 16+ - located in Virginia.
Doctors Robert and Jill Malone live in Madison, VA - just outside of Charlottesville. Where they own Cielo Azure Lusitanos, a breeding farm.
Cielo Azure Lusitanos (CAL) is a stud, breeding and training farm specializing in highest quality Portuguese-registered APSL Lusitanos. Exceptional movement, conformation, blood lines and athleticism drive our breeding program. We breed and train to meet the demands of the advanced amateur and professional rider. The carefully hand-crafted horses produced by Cielo Azure Lusitanos are shown, inspected and trained using classical methods, yielding equine partners matched to your goals in academic riding, competitive dressage, and working equitation.
The Malone's believe that performance must drive breeding programs. So, they have a strong commitment to showing their horses. Over the years, Jill and Robert have accumulated some impressive wins in the breed ring and in equine performance sports.
Cielo Azure Lusitanos stands Jade II Da Sernadinha: a magnificent, imported buckskin Lusitano stallion. Jade represents the absolutely best Lusitano dressage bloodlines in Portugal, lines that are known for their commanding presence and fantastic movement.
Jade’s powerful genetic lineage gives him extraordinary and correct conformation. He is truly a genetic storehouse of the best of the Lusitano breed. Evidence of this is that he has already won a silver medal from the APSL in the USA; an achievement that few Lusitanos attain.
What makes Jade so unique is his laid-back personality and eagerness to please, combined with a strong work ethic. Jade just loves people.
Each year, the Malone’s offer a few, select young stock. Please feel free to call or write to see what is available now.
