A pedigree with so much promise! Zafferano is not just a coloured stallion, but he is successfully competing and placing in Grand Prix in Germany as a 10 year old. There is NO OTHER palomino stallion in the world with this quality pedigree competing at the highest level. Combined with Australia's proven and talented imported Grand Prix stallions that have beautiful trainable temperaments, this foal will be nothing short of spectacular!!
