Alto Habana with her day old filly foal by Romero XXV
Until quite recently, chestnut horses were not allowed to be registered in the Spanish Stud Book but the colour persisted, hidden behind the grey genes. This has made chestnut horses both uncommon and desirable.
Habana was the first of several chestnut mares we wanted to acquire, primarily to breed Palominos from our cremello stallion, Mas Yaco (aka Yogurt). In 2017 she was put in foal to Yogurt and had a palomino filly born May 2018. In 2021 we put her in foal again to Yogurt and she has produced another palomino colt born August 2022.
Her breeding on the sire's side is almost entirely by the famous Cardenas Stud in Spain and her dam was bred from bull-fighting strains, the most famous of which was Jardinero X who was the mount of Mel Gibson in the film, Braveheart.
Habana is a very gentle and kind mare who is a fantastic mother. Everybody’s friend and so easy to handle. These attributes she always passes onto her offspring. Her movement is straight, the walk having a good over-track, the trot has length and knee action, the canter being well balanced.Habana is a mare we are proud to own, and a very good asset for our stud.
