Breeding Arabian horses is a great pas- sion with high hopes in store. Picking the most beautiful mares, and selecting the best fillies they have been produ- cing over the years - is the primary task of a good and responsible breeder. And, after that, the search begins to find the right Stallion. ars, and, with his wife Noemie Zeller, for eight years now. In thirty years, many stallions have been bred to their beautiful mares, some of them very important, others less so, but, all the sires have been accurately selected to get top results. There are stallions who have profoundly mar- A STAR IS BORN It must be a meticulous and conscious sear- ch that takes into account even the smallest genetic and morphological details. Just like the research that Woody Gubbiotti has been conducting on his own for the past thirty ye- ked the life, the history and the evolvement of Woody Arabians breeding program, someti- mes requiring the setting up of dedicated par- tnerships with Italian and worldwide fellow breeders.This was certainly the case of Royal Colours (True Colours x Xtreme Wonder), an extraordinary Straight Egyptian stallion who has strongly contributed to the enhancement of world breeding industry. HDB Shir Ibn Massai (Massai Ibn Marenga x Mayana) is certainly another pivotal stallion in the history of the Ara- bian horse, a great sire himself who is leaving outstanding quality progeny in Brazil. Last but not least, we need to mention Dominic M (Da Vinci FM x Rosa La Valentina), which has been efficient- ly managed by Noemie Zeller through an extensive and strong promotion, thereby offering many breeders a uni- que opportunity to introduce in their breeding program this amazing stallion, a choice that turned up to be crucial for Woody Arabians too. More recently, Noemie Zeller has acquired the owner- ship of a new and important colt together with her friend Farhang Fazeli from Iran. This incredible horse is Berwaz Al Bustan, a young son by Fa El Rasheem and out of BS Noor, a gorgeous daughter by Royal Colors and out JJ Mo- nalisa, one of the most beautiful matriarchs from the UAE, owned by Al Bustan Stables of the Taweedi family. Al Bustan is the name of the stables where Berwaz Al Bu- stan came to light surrounded by the loving care of his bre- eders and all the staff. As a foal, he was then transferred to Dubai Arabian Horse Stud where he was trained to participate in morphology shows, and his style and beauty have already conquered many arenas of the UAE show circuit. As for example the Bronze Champion Yearling title at the Emirates breeders Championship in 2018 out of 4 yearling colt classes. JJ Monalisa is a direct daughter to Magnum Psyche and out of the mare NV Angelica. When bred to Royal Colours, JJ Monalisa bore BS Noor, a bombshell of beauty and ge- netic power. Once this powerful genetic pool was made available to FA El Rasheem, Berwaz Al Bustan came to life. Woody has been impressed by Berwaz Al Bustan ever since he was only a foal; this little gorgeous colt came to represent his secret dream in every way, to the extent that his wife Noemie and the Iranian breeder Fahrang Fazeli decided to take the next big step of buying him. The arrival of Berwaz Al Bustan in Italy brought everyo- ne much joy. The beautiful colt was warmly welcomed in his new home by his new owners, but not only by them. Soon afterwards, Berwaz Al Bustan did catch the eye of famous Italian handler Paolo Capecci and the whole staff at the training centre. At his debut in Europe, Berwaz Al Bustan hit the arena at the 2020 Menton show, France, where he obtained the highest score among all the colts, and ranked ex-equo UNANIMOUS GOLD MEDAL JUNIOR COLTS Prague Intercup 2020 with the first in class, then winning second place. On Sunday championships, Berwaz Al Bustan entered the arena with his high presence. In the expert hands of his handler |Paolo Capecci, he gave an excellent performan- ce and was acclaimed Bronze medal, making Noëmie. and Farhang very proud as well as the whole family. After a couple of months, Berwaz Al Bustan confirmed his unrivalled morphological quality and amazing atti- tude at the 2020 Prague InterCup, Czech Republic, whe- re he was crowned Unanimous Gold Medal Champion and cheered by the crowed. Now, Berwaz Al Bustan’s breeding career has begun, and his first crop of foals is expected for 2021. We wish all the breeders who believe in this young exotic colt, the very best and we can’t wait to see what comes next...
