We are happy to welcome a new addition to our breeding program, the Janow Podlaski bred Alpina AA. This nine-year-old mare is one of the first foals of our homebred Abyad AA, a son of Nader Al Jamal out of Al Amal AA (Halim Shah I x The Vision HG) who was leased to Janow Stud at the age of nine months by stud director, Mr. Marek Trela. Abyad stood at Janow for a few breeding seasons, and produced extremely well for Janow Stud. Perhaps his best known daughters are the mare Prunella (out of Pradera), who was named Gold Champion Filly at the Polish Nationals in 2016 and the mare Pila (out of Piba) who was named Gold Champion Mare at the 2021 Sopot Arabian Horse Show in Poland.
Alpina herself is a daughter of the well-known Alabama (Gazal Al Shaqab x Altona by Eukaliptus), tracing to the dam line of the great Polish mare Algeria (Celebes x Algonkina). We look forward to see how Apina will fit into our breeding program and create her own family here.
