This video, taken when he was only 2 yrs old, is nothing fancy.
I
just pulled him out of the pasture
and it was too chilly for bathing so please excuse the dust! if the ring had been a bit larger, you would see how much ground he can cover in one stride. He is performance bred and should be a nice fine harness prospect.
This is going to be a very confortable riding horse.
ZHR ROMANTIC WARRIOR (aka ROMIO) was sired by our black Straight Egyptian stallion, ASWAD SHAHWAN BWA.
His dam, SO-BLACK DAJALANA, is a black daughter of the well known performance champion stallion, BLACKLORD DARKHAN - http://www.chacaro.com/stallions/blacklord_darkhan.asp -. Champion BLACKLORD DARKHAN is one of of the "winningest" black Arabian stallions in America as well as a Champion in Country English Pleasure and Halter. He was named unanimous 1994 Region XIV Country Pleasure Driving Champion. A son of a Champion and a sire of Champions, Blacklord Darkhan's immediate family is filled with well known national and international champions.
ROMIO has a ground covering, floating trot with good hock and knee action and a mild temperament; wedge shaped head with small muzzle; level topline with good tail carriage, strong shoulder and hip, short back and long legs. He loves to trot and has incredible reach!!! I believe he would be an excellent candidate for Pleasure Driving and Saddle Seat with proper training. He really loves to trot! He is learning how to use his nice long "hingy" neck. He is only going to get better with age and experience!
SO-BLACK DAJALANA, is also a maternal EASTER MAGIC granddaughter. EASTER MAGIC was a black sabino mare and was the dam of the black Sabino (Splash?) stallion THE BOOGEYMAN, also a son of BLACKLORD ARABI, who was also the paternal grandsire of SO-BLACK DAJALANA. Neither his sire or dam has ever sired/produced chestnut.
ZHR ROMANTIC WARRIOR is EGYPTIAN SIRED
and is also 87.5% AMERICAN FOUNDATION (through SB X)
