CALLAHO BONITA

We are truly fortunate to have this daughter of dressage super-sire Benicio standing here at stud. On Bonita’s direct dam line is the world champion De Niro, who has confirmed his status as one of the World’s Best Dressage Stallion’s by ranking #1 on the WBFSH Dressage Sire Ranking no less than 5 times. Not only has De

Niro become a legendary dressage sire of sires, he has also been very successful in the sport himself. He was competing at Grand Prix level at a very young age.

Bonita who is full sister to our other mare Bijou, is blessed with a kind and gentle nature, close to faultless conformation and is also blessed with expressive, flowing movement. This mare with her matchless pedigree must surely to be considered to be amongst the best of the world’s best.

We are proud to announce that Bonita had a spectacular colt by Johnson in October
2023. He has surpassed all of our wildest expectations. Now we need to wait until Octobe 2026 to see if he may pass the inspections to be retained as a stallion. If not, he will be for sale as a gelding, who will hopefully go on to be a top dressage prospect. Please see under PROGENY for more info on this beautiful colt.
