This golden palomino mare of 2015 is a superb example of German Riding Pony breeding. She is by the 2015 Hanoverian pony Champion Cocktailzauber, out of an excellent damline of Gia, who was herself sired by another reknown pony champion, Makuba! She is an easy going, “charming”, and beautiful mare who gets along with everyone, horses and humans alike! Easy and willing when started under saddle as well. She sports the amazing gaits and presence of her sire, while retaining the stout but elegance of Makuba himself. Truly a dream in pedigree, we are anxiously anticipating her first foal by Evans Providence of the night who should increase pony typeyness AND downsize her to US standards.
