July Summer Camps

Taught and managed by D.j. Sims of Silver Stables, but using Summerwind Marchador horses mostly. This year a few people brought up their horses up for camp too! It was a full month of three-day events with kids that were experienced riders and kids that sometimes had little or no experience. We had one group from Arizona, and the others were “locals” – either vacationing or living here in Pagosa Springs.

Marchador horses and kids go together!

Thanks to D.j. and Elizabeth Sims for the time and effort into planning, driving, teaching and doing all the other activities that went into another success.

Here are some photos from the camps! The horses and the kids were awesome!!! Summerwind Marchadors used were Artemis do Summerwind, Caboclo da Piedade, Caesar do Summerwind, Hawke do Summerwind, Koyote Libertas. Joining us from Arizona were Fidalgo do Summerwind, Sabela da Tranquility, and Topsy, a very cute pony.

WELCOME TO OUR NEWEST MARCHADORS!

Introducing our P babies!

Puka do Summerwind – bay tobiano filly. Reserved and headed to North Carolina eventually. Headed for Colorado for the summer months with dam Isabelle do Great Lakes, owned by Karen and Randy. Another great baby for Izzy and our first from newly imported frozen semen Atrevido do Porto Palmeira.

Puka do Summerwind

Paris do Summerwind – bay filly. Staying put with owner Cathy Pierce and her dam Cassandra do MManor. Another filly from imported semen from Arun de Maripa (so far only 1 boy in the mix and we love getting fillies!) Video is her first time out! So cute.

Padawan do Summerwind – bay tobiano colt. He waited until April to be born! But well worth the wait! He will stay a stud colt / stallion prospect for Elizabeth Sims in AZ (who also owns Jedi-Knight and Leia do Summerwind). He will also enjoy the summer months in Pagosa Springs with dam Brasilia do Summerwind.

Contest is being held on SW Future Foal – Mangalarga Marchador FB page, or send us an email at futurefoal@gmail.com. Only one guess allowed per person per foal. Winners announced as the foals are born.

3 chances to win with 3 foals expected in March, 2021! We are excited and thrilled! Help us with the naming too! We are on the letter P – P** do Summerwind!

First up – guess a date from last week of February to mid-March for the expected foal of Atrevido do Porto Palmeira (frozen semen) and Isabelle do Great Lakes. Izzy is a blue roan mare and the sire is a black bay tobiano.

Isabelle do Great Lakes aka IZZY! She is a blue roan Marchador mare. She’s had spectacular foals so far – Jedi-Knight , a MM stallion, Luna, MM mare and Nandor, a MM stud colt. We are expecting greatness again. As always hoping for a good healthy baby, no matter what the gender or color.

Next up is Cassandra do MManor. Choose a date from Mid March to the first week of April. Cassie is a bay Marchador mare bred to a black bay Marchador stallion (frozen semen). Arun de Maripa is the sire of this foal.

Cassandra do MManor is bred to Arun de Maripa. Cassie has had 2 other wonderful foals – Eduardo and Nobre do Summerwind, both MM geldings.

The third chance to win is with Brasilia do Summerwind, a black bay Marchador mare. Brasilia is also bred to Atrevido do Porto Palmeira using frozen semen. Guess the same as Cassie – from Mid-March to early April.

Recent photo of Brasilia do Summerwind. Brasilia has had 3 Marchador foals with us. Fidalgo do Summerwind, a MM gelding; Gaia and Jewel do Summerwind. We are thrilled that she is pregnant after failing to conceive in the last 2 years. Her babies are worth waiting for.
