Shire stallion Mufasa X and rider-trainer Luis Reteguiz-Denizard concluded the 2015 season as winners of the United States Dressage Federation Adequan All-Breed Award for the American Shire Horse Association.

We are so pleased with Mufasa’s performance, and have been delighted by the reaction of judges and fans during the show season.  Wherever they go, he and Lou command attention as a visually stunning and highly harmonious pair.  Given his significant size, spectators are impressed to learn how light and well-balanced he appears as he performs movements.  It’s been a satisfying journey for us and for Lou to demonstrate that inherent ability and correct training always shine through, regardless of breed.

Their partnership has more fully developed over the course of the last few years, and we are also anxiously anticipating the arrival of a 2016 foal through a breeding commissioned by Lou to his Hanovarian mare, Weltharmonie (Weltgeist x Walerie).

Mufasa returned to Delanté Dresage in Palm City, Florida in early October to prepare for the 2016 show season.  He will also stand at Delante during the winter and early spring, and both fresh, cooled and frozen are available to approved mares.  Contact us for more information.

We’re looking forward to a great season and more stunning photographs of #TeamX!
