Brazil Trip 2017

We have plans to go to the National Show in July and to visit some Marchador horse breeding farms while we are there.   We go to learn more about the breed, the training, the genetics and the philosophies from the breeders and trainers there.   But, our goal is always to find and import new genetics to the U.S. for our continued improvement and diversity here.      Most often, this is by importing frozen semen.

So, even before we go, we can start the photo album of some of the Marchador horses and farms that we expect to see.

The Mane Event, Westworld May 26-28

Imported MM mare Gralha M.U.G and D.J. Sims of Silver Stables Marchadors.

Mangalarga Marchador horses will be there at the MANE EVENT!

The USMMA will have an association booth and local Summerwind and Future Foal breeders will be bringing their horses.   They and other USMMA members will be manning the association booth.   It’s a great place to come and meet a Marchador!

Besides information at the booth, we are hoping for ring time to present the Marchador breed, speaker time and also photo-op time! Come to the barns and meet a Marchador.

Here is some more information about the event and how to get tickets:

The Mane Event Scottsdale May 26-28, 2017 will be the first annual event at the world class facility of WestWorld at Scottsdale.  This venue allows the all equine trade show, one arena, the lecture/demo area and the Round Pen to be under one air conditioned roof.
