🏆🐎APPALOOSA NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP 🐎🏆

What an incredible honor to show this magnificent stallion for Ruconu Appaloosa Stud!

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with him and watching him shine in the show ring. With his unbelievable temperament and stunning presence, it’s hard to believe he’s only 6 months under saddle! And what a debut at the Afridome Parys:

🥈 2nd in Show Riding
🥈 2nd in Show Hunter
🏆 Reserve Champion Adult Novice Show Horse

🏆 Reserve Supreme Champion Appaloosa Under Saddle

In-hand, he exceeded all expectations, proving just how truly exceptional he is. It’s always a joy to handle such a well-behaved stallion!

🏆 Junior Champion C**t
🏆 Supreme Champion Male

🏆 Reserve Champion of Champions (Main Registry Appaloosa 2024)

Thank you, Ruconu Appaloosa Stud , for trusting me with the opportunity to show and produce this incredible stallion! I’m so grateful and beyond excited for what the future holds for him! 🌟
