PAPAVERO is a young stallion debuting in breeding after completing racing training. He belongs to the group of Pure Polish stallions (descending from a sire and dam line considered to be historically Polish).

His sire, Polish National Champion & US National Top Ten ECAHO, was considered a stallion of such an exemplary conformation that he was right-out named after the organization which handles all things Arabian in Europe. ECAHO is known for having sired some of the most feminine mares in Polish breeding history, vide World Champion EMANDA, Scottsdale Reserve Champion & World Top Ten OLITA and double Polish National Champion/Best in Show (both Junior & Senior) PALMETA. His daughters have also written themselves down as superb broodmares, giving birth to the likes of PSYCHE VICTORIA & PSYCHE KREUZA (out of PALLAS-ATENA), PALATINO, PALABRA & PALATINA (out of PALMETA) and one of the brightest stars of the last decade, EMANDORIA (out of EMANDA).

PAPAVERO’s dam PIOLA is a granddaughter of the legendary PIANISSIMA – a model Arabian mare that set the breed standard. A twice Polish National Champion and twice European Triple Crown (as both junior and senior), US National Champion, Al Khalediah Arabian Horse Festival Gold Champion and Dubai International Gold Champion Mare, she was the first ever mare awarded the prestigious World Platinum Champion title at the Salon du Cheval in Paris. Descending from Janów Podlaski’s famed P-line of PIEWICA, known for many champions over eight generations such as (among others) PILARKA, PILAR, PILAROSA, PALMETA, PENICYLINA or PERFINKA, PIANISSIMA remains not only the most prominent member of her family, but the best Polish Arabian horse in history.
