SANTIAGO
DE PROMETIDO |
Santiago
de Prometido is Misty Pines' 12 year old, 14.3 hand, 1,000 lb. Pleasure
Stallion. He's a PFHA Title of Proficiency stallion with over 1,000
cumulative PFHA show ring points. He is out of Plebeyo x 2, (Chucuano
x 3), on the sire's side and a Hilachas bred mare on the dam's side.
He is a strikingly handsome buckskin stallion with an exceptional
flowing mane and tail, very powerful hocks and a fabulous disposition. |
 |
He
has always won or placed very high in all of his classes at the regional
level and has ribboned 7 times at 4 different PFHA Grand National
Championships since 1998 in both Open and Amateur Owner Performance
and Pleasure Colt or Stallion classes. His most recent accomplishment
and without a doubt his finest performance yet, occurred at the 2005
Grand National Championships in which as an 11 year old stallion,
he was crowned the National Champion in Open Pleasure Stallions, with
his trainer Cary Hardiman at the reins. Even with a class of 29 stallions
including many former National Champions and recently imported Colombian
Stallions, Santiago won this class with a unanimous decision among
all 3 judges. Two days later, he was crowned the Reserve Grand National
Champion in Open Pleasure Colts and Stallions in which he received
one placement for the Grand National Championship. |
 |
In 1998, Santiago and his Amateur
Owner won the Reserve National Championship in 4 year old Performance
Colts/Geldings. In 2000, they won a 5th National Championship in
Open Pleasure Stallions, and a 6th National Championship in Amateur
Owner Pleasure Stallions with only 2 weeks of refresher training.
Then in 2002, they made the final cut in the Amateur Owner Pleasure
Colts/Stallions Grand National Championship and were awarded Honorable
Mention (or 5th) in this class. |
 |
Santiago
has easily earned his rite for retirement in Open competition and
may on very rare occasions return with his owner to the regional Amateur
Owner show ring, but until then, he has a life of ease grazing with
the mares and making babies for Misty Pines. |
 |
If
you are interested in breeding your filly or mare to Santiago, you
won’t be disappointed. He makes very elegant, talented, SMART,
and entirely docile babies, that anyone can handle. His stud fee for
2006 is $1,200 plus $10 per day for live cover mare care. He does
has a live foal guarantee even though his conception/birth rate is
running 100%, and most of his babies including his youngest son at
4 years old is almost 15.0 hands. |
