Equifor arrived recently at Greg Gallun's farm in California. We are looking forward to a great show with him - informs Marsha Parkinson, Equifor's current leaser. All things going with good fortune, he will start his US show career at Scottsdale.
Let's recall that Janow Podlaski-bred 2003 colt Equifor (Gazal Al Shaqab x Eqviria/Pers) is already a title holder of 2005 Polish National Junior Reserve Champion, Junior Champion Stallion of Falborek and Reserve at Belzyce shows in Poland as well as 2004 Belzyce Reserve Champion Colt.
Shortly after returning from the track in August 2006 he was leased by Polish Arabian horse lover and breeder Marsha Parkinson of Canterbury Farm at Melfield, Maryland.
There are his first foals expected to be born at Canterbury Farm in January. One of the very first Equifor's foals will be out of Michalow-bred Egeria (Eukaliptus x Emigracja/Palas), full sister to such international stars as famous Emigrantka, Emanacja and Elandra.
Equifor will be in the US until the end of breeding season in 2009 when he returns to Poland. In the meantime he has joined his stable mate Piaff, Michałów’s Emandoria and Polish-bred Hun (Białka Stud) and Elandra (Michałów Stud) also being trained by Grag Gallun. We are impatiently waiting for the news about first Equifor’s foals to be born as well as his US show debut at Scottsdale where he will be cheered by some big group of Polish breeders as well.
