GIARDINA – is a young granddaughter of GRATITUDA (SE), bred by the late Britta Fahlgren, gifted to Janów Podlaski to rebuild and preserve the rare damline of Cherifa d.b. Although GRATITUDA (SE) has several females of Swedish and British origin in her damline, she actually descends directly from the Janów Podlaski-bred ELEONORA. Born at the end of World War II, ELEONORA did much to restore the breeding of Arabian horses in Poland after the peace treaties were signed. She is the dam of EXELSJOR (grandsire to PROBAT) and a protoplast of a slew of successful stallions as ENOS, ENGANO, ELEUZIS, ELKIN, ELEMI, ELEGION, ELGON, ELBING, EL BAK, EL AZEM.

Furthermore GRATITUDA’s sire – European Junior, All Nations Cup Junior, French National Senior & German National Senior Champion NADIR I – carries a triple linebreeding to ASWAN, making GRATITUDA a priceless gift for the Janów Stud.

GIARDINA’s sire is Michałów’s extremely decorated stallion MORION: Białka Junior Spring Show Yearling Champion & Best in Show, Polish National Junior Champion, Al Khalediah European Arabian Horse Festival Junior Champion & Best in Show, All Nations Cup Yearling Silver Champion, European Yearling Silver Champion, World Yearling Silver Champion, Junior Spring Show Champion Stallion & Best in Show, All Nations Cup Junior Champion, World Junior Champion, Qatar International Arabian Horse Championship Junior Champion, AHO World Cup Senior Silver Champion, All Nations Cup Senior Bronze Champion & Polish National Senior Gold Champion.
