We are proud to announce that Deemonstrator will be standing at stud in 2011
A lovely young stallion with an exceptional temperament, he is a friendly and intelligent character with a real desire to please. He is a gentleman to handle and be around and is by a well known and proven endurance sire, Kayeed.
He is a pure bred arabian - quality, performance, temperament, with a strong build and nice height.
(Kayeed x Mistrella)Stands at 15.2hh and will be 7yo in 2012. All his stock will be eligible to be registered with the Arab Horse Society. He sired 8 foals due in 2011. He is the ideal outcross for any type of mare, should add bone to lighter mares and quality to heavier mares, or pure bred Arabs, racing and endurance horses, also ideal for pony owners who want to breed something bigger than their mare but don’t want something too heavy. He has a superb kind calm temperament, lots of bone, very athletic with a ground covering stride.
His sire: KAYEED: Youngest horse ever to take gold at The Golden Horseshoe Ride. Went on to win/be placed in endurance races up to 75 miles including FEI.

Kayeed won his first race of 2009 at Taunton, see Arabian Racing website for full results.
His dam: MINSTRELLA: Minstrella is sired by AL SOOD who is the sire of several 100 and 160km endurance horses. Al Sood is also sire of Arab racing winner Nicholettah.
