Baroque Horse Magazine is a high-class, artsy magazine with tremendous distribution around the world. So we are happy to have the Mangalarga Marchador highlighted again in 2013 with Gaia do Summerwind.
The Marchador now joins the other classic baroque breeds on its pages – Lusitanos, Friesians, Andalusians, Lippazans and more! To read the Gaia do Summerwind article in its entirety, please click on the pdf file link named “bhm2013gaia” below or click on each photo (better resolution)
One of our SW owners was operated on in February, for brain cancer. If you can contribute to their medical bills, it would be a great act of kindness. If not, please keep her and her family in your thoughts and prayers!
The long-awaited foal of Azenha de Maripa x Ximoio de Maripa showed up early Sunday night, February 17th. This is Ximoio de Maripa’s first foal in the U.S., born using his imported frozen semen. Both Azenha and Ximoio were bred by Agro Maripa, Brazil.
We could not be happier with him. He’s friendly, confident and showing wonderful gait and temperament of the Mangalarga Marchador breed! Born chocolate (milk and dark), we think he will shed to black, but may eventually be grey like his sire.
He was code named Hermes, but after he was born, we decided to select a different name. When hawk feathers were found in his stall, we knew we had picked the right one!
Hermes do Summerwind(code name, you would get to name the foal if you decide to reserve it.) Due February 2013 in Arizona.
The product of Azenha de Maripa, imported MM mare and Ximoio de Maripa, still in Brasil. (click on their names to see their pages) This will be Ximoio’s first foal in the U.S.! The Marchador world will be watching this one – around the world.
This will be our sport horse Marchador foal in the true tradition of Agro Maripa! Ground covering marcha batida! Add the bonus of the most beautiful features in the head and neck. Almost pure Abaiba bloodlines, this foal will be the one that people will stop to watch. Before it is born, I am predicting it may be the most beautiful Marchador in America.
We believe there is no better way to create your next life partner than to raise it from birth. The bonding, training and fun are priceless!We specialize in genetics and proven producers.
Reserve Hermes for $15,000 or reserve the foal in condominium with SW Future Foal for $10,000. We are interested in future foals or breeding rights in exchange for the reduction in price. We offer payment plans too – we are interested in great, forever homes who want to be part of Marchador history!
Photos and Videos are of the parents, but here is what we expect from the pairing:
Beauty and elegance beyond compare, a presence – noticed wherever you go.
Very type-y head with large eyes, tipped in Marchador ears, silky mane.
Energy, athleticism and conformation that supports a performance sport like endurance, jumping, working equitation, or western dressage.
Expressive in movement, pure marcha batida (diagonal)

Bella (Elba Cruzalta) is an imported mare of the highest quality who never takes a step that isn’t a smooth marcha picada! La Paz Jivago represents his Favacho/Tabatinga bloodlines well with solid bone, conformation and athleticism. Did we mention he’s a drop-dead gorgeous metallic dun stallion?

Beautiful head with teacup muzzle, fine silky mane (not thick iberian), large eyes, MM ears
