*BUDAPEST, in the 1990's, was one of the few Shagya-Arabian stallions in the U.S. to have completed the stallion performance standards required by the International Shagya-Arabian Society (ISG) in Europe - and he completed these ISG requirements easily. Today, *BUDAPEST is still the only purebred US Shagya-Arabian breeding stallion to receive USDF All-Breed recognition. His progeny continue to prove their athletic and competitive expertise with regional and national achievements
*BUDAPEST is the only Shagya-Arabian stallion with the honor of standing at stud at the foundation Hungarian Horse breeding program of the Cooksley Ranch as a traditional European outcross for the rare Hungarian Felver horses.
*BUDAPEST progeny continue to prove their athletic expertise and exemplary dispositions with regional and national achievements. They have excelled in dressage, eventing, endurance, competitive trail, lesson masters and law enforcement. BUDA babies can be seen on our Facebook page:
Shagal (Shagya III)
1976-2004
SHAGAL became a chief stallion and was honored to become "SHAGYA III" at the Babolna Stud, Hungary. SHAGAL has produced several influential stallions used at State Studs and Shagya-Arabian-Arabian farms. His genetic contribution has been instrumental in rebuilding the Shagya-Arabian breed.
Owned by and riding companion of Dr. Walter Huber, Germany.
*Biala
This Shagya foundation mare was imported carrying *BUDAPEST in-utero and delivered a healthy colt while in quarantine. The strong qualities of this excellent broodmare have genetically contributed to the easy breeding and mother-ability qualities of the US Shagya-Arabian.
For 3 years, competition points accumulated by *BUDAPEST and his progeny enabled *BIALA, to receive Top Five Meritorious Dam in the Year End Awards of the Arabian Sport Horse Association*.
