Available for your consideration, "Carina" a gray filly, born May 3, 2023. Carina’s sire, Casanova, is owned by Betty Linnell (Three Creeks Ranch, Double L Kigers). Casanova is a wild born 15 hand Kiger mustang gathered from the Wild Riddle HMA in Oregon. Her dam, Lucy, is our 15.2 hand purebred Andalusian mare that has great bloodlines with mostly “Hierro del Bocado” breeding. We expect Carina to be gray and to finish at at least 15.2 hands. Carina was an even 14 hands at 14 months of age.
Carina is double-registered with IAHLA (International Andalusian and Lusitano Horse Association Registry) and KHAR (Kiger Horse Association and Registry). She is branded and micro-chipped.
We wanted to breed this unusual cross to take advantage of the athleticism and spirit of the Andalusian with the level-headedness of the Kiger. In addition, there is evidence obtained through genetic testing that the Kiger Mustangs are descendants of the Spanish Colonial horse from the 17th Century. We were interested in reconnecting the blood of the old Spanish Colonial horse through the Kiger Mustang sire and the contemporary Spanish bloodlines through the Andalusian dam.
