P-Foal 2026S

Purebred Shagya-Arabian foal due 2026, bred for eventing

Shagya-Arabian

NORTH AMERICAN SHAGYA-ARABIAN SOCIETY
Olivero / Wineglass Ominous / Murad

The foal’s sire Olivero was foaled in Germany and imported as a yearling to Canada by Shannon McCracken. His bloodlines are, in the words of Adele Furby, “packed with well-known and well-respected ancestors.” Olivero’s sire Taib Gazlan received very high scores and was proclaimed Reserve Champion at his licensing in Neustadt Dosse. He impressed the judges with his nobility, harmony, and rideability. His character was especially commended, for which he got the score 10 at the licensing. Taib Gazlan is by the elite stallion Tibor, who was bred by Ruth Pack at Reichshof Stud, for many years one of the most important Shagya-Arabian breeding stations in Germany. While Tibor’s sireline represents classical Babolna bloodlines stemming from Gazal VII and the elite mare Babolna, his dam is Tatjana, another elite mare and an outcross with highly-respected Romanian endurance bloodlines. In fact, in the third generation, all four of Olivero’s female ancestors are elite mares: Tatjana, Ayda, Nedda, and Dalileh. 

Olivero’s dam Obeya is by Navarra, whose dam Nedda (mentioned above) appears twice in his pedigree through her sons Navarra and Nasrallah—both elite stallions. Obeya is also a full sister to the approved stallion Orpheus II (pictured here). Obeya’s damline is largely Danish, with the stallion Edhem bred by Ulla Nyegaard and the mare Dalileh who was imported to Denmark by Nyegaard from Topolcianky in Slovakia. Obeya is characterized by a very nice, typey appearance with fine, dry, and elegant limbs. Her dam Oya was herself approved in the ZSAA studbook with high scores, and produced excellent offspring.

Olivero presents a deep pedigree with a harmonious combination of the original Shagya studfarms founded by the Austro-Hungarian empire in 1789, including Babolna in Hungary, Radautz in Romania, and Topolcianky in Slovakia.

The foal’s dam Backwoods Perfect (Edie) is bred for all three rings. She brings the best of German Shagya-Arabian breeding (6 of 8 ancestors in the third generation) and combines it with impeccable US foundation stock. From the well-known dressage-bred stallions Shagal, Shaman, and Amor she inherits height, bone, and lovely movement. From Oman and Gazal VII she inherits elegance and toughness as well as jump. Finally, from Bajar—one of the few Shagya-Arabians whose jumping talent led to his licensing by the Holsteiner Verband—she gets power and scope. As with most Shagya, she is highly people-orientated and is kind, gentle, and sweet, with easy rideability.

Edie has produced two purebred Shagya-Arabian foals, the first a colt by Wineglass Dionysus (Max/Budapest/Atmandu ox) and the second a 2025 filly by Rio Bravo AF (Janos/Hungarian Bravo/Alcibiades ox).

Breeding Notes

The foal has 18 crosses to the stallion Gazal VII, arguably the best Shagya-Arabian stallion of the 20th century, leading to a blood percentage of 17.38%. Gazal VII was a purebred Shagya-Arabian foaled in 1944.  He was sent to stud in Germany at age 23, and produced 19 licensed sons which were used widely in many warmblood breeding programs. His stallion performance test report stated “It is noticeable that at the hard stallion performance test all Gazal VII sons are in the top group and are superior by hardness, athletic elasticity and outstanding jumping potential and estimation skill”. A high blood concentration of the elite stallion Bartok, as well as multiple crosses to the elite stallions Bajar, Amor, and O’Bajan X ensure rideability and a tough, hardy constitution. Finally, the elite mares Babolna (dam of the approved stallions Titan, Bakony, Bartok, Balaton, and O’Bajar, the last three designated elite stallion), and Nedda (dam of the approved stallions Nasrallah and Navarra) round off the bloodline with extraordinary genes.
