We imported Trovador II from Spain in 1999.  He was bred by
D. Samuel Vilaire Cifre.  

Before his importation Trovador II accumulated many gold and silver
awards in "Conformation" and "Best Movement".  In addition he was just
beginning a dressage career before importation.
This page is not big enough to list all of his awards but some of his
Championships are listed below...

1991  Championships - First Place and Gold Medal as a yearling
1991  Championships - Best Movement

Trovador's sire Belico III is from the famed Terry stud in Spain, among his
accomplishments are many championships including being named the "National
Champion of Spain" in 1984.  Belico III was the last Terry horse to stand at
the Terry Stud and Rumasa before being purchased by Sr. Vilaire.

Trovador's mother, a bay mare from the Marin Garcia stud in Spain a Champion too.  
Her accomplishments boast gold medals in "Conformation" and "Best Movement" as
well as "Overall Champion in Best Movement".   Trovador's conformation, type and
movement are a testament to his breeding.  His extension and impulsion from behind
is extraordinary, not just for an Andalusian but for any breed.  Trovador II is the sire
of the imported bay stallion Almirante XLVIII.

Trovador stands 16.1 hands.  He has sired bay, black and grey foals.  He passes on
his presence and gentle nature, which is the haulmark of the Andalusian Horse.

2007 will be the only year Trovador II will stand to outside mares.
