Gardiyan
2009 Purebred Akhal-Teke Stallion
15.2h Metallic Bay ATAA REGISTRATION: AAKT 499 VNIIK REGISTRATION: 101601509 NFS Negative Gardiyan, affectionately called “G” around the farm, is a metallic bay Akhal-teke stallion by Gindarkh 13 and out of Guana-Kosteka. His sire, Gindarkh 13, is noteable for being a star in Ringling Brothers Circus for many years before being retired to stud. Gardiyan’s Great-Grandsire is the famous dressage horse Absent, who won a total of 4 Olympic Medals including individual gold during the 1960’s.
Gardiyan is a very people-oriented and well-mannered stallion with a sweet personality that is also sensitive and highly intelligent. He is exceptionally athletic and has wonderful, powerful movements. His jump is round and very correct and careful while still being a very smooth ride. At 4 years old, he participated in a demonstration at the Kentucky Horse Park and performed bridle-less in front of many people. At five years of age, he started learning about horse shows while competing locally on the hunter circuit. Due to some heavy flooding issues on our farm, we have been unable to keep Gardiyan in fit enough condition since then to be in competitions at this time. It is our hope to get him back in the show ring in the future once we sort out our farm’s flooding situation. Gardiyan is available on a limited basis to approved mares for breeding. He is a good choice for adding refinement and finesse to his offspring. If you have a mare you are considering breeding, please contact us. $500 live cover only to purebred mares $1000 live cover only to non-purebred akhal-teke mares. Boarding available for breeding when needed. $650 per month |
