Belardo
Bay 2012 - 15.3 1/2 hh
By Lope De Vega - Danaskaya
Fee £5,500 Oct 1st SLF
We were delighted to have the European Champion 2yo BELARDO join our stallion roster in 2023.
We acquired breeding rights in him when he first went to stud and were rewarded with the Gr.3 winner Lullaby Moon. He has built on that success during the last few years and has produced Gr.1 class horses, including Grade 1 winner Gold Phoenix and Gr.1 horses Red Lion, Blissful Belle and Bellabel.
As he covered more than 200 mares in 2021 and 2022, he will have plenty of chances to improve his stud record.
