LUA D' OLIVEIRA is our foundation Lusitano mare that was imported from Portugal in December 2021. She was heavily pregnant with SYLVIE TORA V at the time of import.

 

According to Victoria, LUA D' OLIVEIRA is her pride and joy. This exquisite Lusitano mare has captivating eyes, a calm and gentle temperament, and is approved by APSL (Portuguese Studbook) with 74.5 points. She is one of the highest-graded Lusitano mares in Australasia, which is a testament to her quality.

 

Her walk, trot, head, withers, chest, and croup received 8s during the grading process. LUA D' OLIVEIRA has a massive trot that shows plenty of hock action and freedom through the shoulders. She has a ground-covering walk and a powerful uphill canter. We cannot fault this mare.

 

As a mother, LUA D' OLIVEIRA has produced two magnificent fillies - SYLVIE TORA V and a full sister in Portugal that is bay. She passes on her calm and gentle temperament, beautiful expressions, striking presence, and exceptional movement onto her foals.

 

LUA D' OLIVEIRA is 3/4 Coudelaria de Alter and shares her lines with Olympic dressage sensations RUBI (AR) and FENIX DE TINEO. Both stallions are recommended for dressage with the APSL. In addition, SOL, the grandsire of LUA D' OLIVEIRA, is also a recommended sire for dressage. This prestigious title is only awarded to Lusitanos that have proven themselves at the international level and is approved only by the APSL board.

 

With their outstanding quality and strong dressage genetics, CELERE (Imp) and LUA D' OLIVEIRA will certainly produce impressive progeny that will play a vital role in the growth of the Lusitano horse in Australasia.
