All of The Alhambra Stud’s purpose-bred endurance stock are raised from birth in large, hilly paddocks on improved pastures with balanced supplementary feeding. They have to use their hearts and lungs and legs all day, every day.

We aim for natural growth rates and plenty of exercise. 

Our desired end result is horses with strong, dense bone - legs that will last the long, hard endurance miles. Hearts and lungs that have had lots of chances to ‘blow away the cobwebs’ and are pre-conditioned to pump steadily for mile after mile.

Our horses are  raised as herd horses, not backyard pets. They’ve learned from birth that life is a competition.

And they will compete with the best - if they have the right riding partners.

Maiden mare - 4yo. Bay, approx 15.2hh

All four mares are big-framed, big-boned, and big movers. Evensong, Chloe and Tanami are proven easy breeders and can be hand or paddock mated.

Each of the foals we have bred from Evensong, Tanami and Chloe  sold as 2/3 year olds as future endurance horses. The eldest are just 6yo.

Each mare is offered with a 2003/2004 season service to either the Pure Arabian stallion Arabian Park Designate or to the Anglo stallion Lasalle Kris (My War Horse (ASB) x Santarabia Katani (Ruberto x Witezan daughter)). Spinning Song could also be bred to Alhambra Classic Wind (Ovaltine (ASB) x Arabian Park Minuet). Click on the links for more details on each stallion.
