SM Serafin
By Qualified Stallion Dominante XXIX and out of Quintanaroo
Andalusian Gelding, foaled February 21, 2011
Registered with IALHA and the FPSH
With most of my girls playing mommy, I thought that perhaps a gelding would be nice to have as a performance horse. This led us to Serafin in 2015. Fate would have it that I would find another Dominante offspring, which I love! This big beautiful guy already had titles under his belt. At the 2013 FPSH Celebration he earned First Place Dressage Sport Horse in Hand Gelding, and First Place Halter Geldings All Ages. With us as the new owners, he continued to show off his talent.
