In a significant achievement at the ECAHO C International ACA Occitanie Arabian Horse Show in France, El Geronimo, a German-bred Arabian show horse, represented Pakistan and won a silver medal, highlighting the country’s presence on an international front.
Bred from the distinguished lineage of SMA Magic One, known for producing champion horses, El Geronimo showcases an exemplary pedigree filled with world renowned horses.
The horse was bred by L.G Leifers – Vriendts in Germany and is owned by Muhammad Mujahid of KF Stables, located in Bihimbar Tarar, near Gulberg, Islamabad. This victory comes under the new ownership of Mujahid, marking a notable achievement in El Geronimo’s already impressive European show record.
Managed by renowned Arabian Horse Trainer Scott Allman and overseen by Pakistani artist and equestrian Fatima Hussain, El Geronimo’s performance was exceptional. On the first day of the show, he won his stallion class, earning the highest possible movement score of 20s. His success continued into the second day, where he secured the silver medal in the championships, being officially recognized as the Silver Medal Champion.
This achievement is not only a personal victory for El Geronimo and KF Stables but also a moment of national pride for Pakistan. It showcases the potential of Pakistani-bred and owned horses in competing at high levels of international equestrian sports.
It also underscores the role of KF Stables as a part of the prestigious Arabian Equestrian Club of Pakistan. This association diligently advances Pakistan’s presence in the international show ring, promoting the country’s capabilities in breeding and training horses capable of competing globally.
El Geronimo is set to return to Pakistan to anchor the breeding program at KF Stables, promising to contribute significantly to the country’s success in breeding having already produced gold champion foals in Europe. His success in France serves as an inspiration and highlights the quality of horse breeding and training in Pakistan.
