Profile:

Allow yourself to become bewitched by an alluring black beauty from one of Janów Podlaski’s most legendary bloodlines. Bellanda is a stellar combination of dazzling good looks, a desired pedigree and a fervently sought after coat color. A half-sister to Polish National Top Five Champion Mare & Bełżyce Reserve Champion Filly BELGICA, Bellanda herself is no stranger to the winners’ circle, as she boasts a class win from the Polish Nationals, where she bested the future Pride of Poland 270,000 Euro high-seller ANDROMEDA. Her winning features are a direct influence of the immensely important broodmares PILARKA & BANDOLA, the latter to whom Bellanda has four crosses to through sons BANDOS & BANAT and through her damline via BANDOLA’s daughter - Oaks winner BEATRICE. PILARKA, an ethereal beauty whose flying trot earned her the coveted titles of World, European, World Cup & Supreme British National Champion, remains one of the most cherished descendants of family founder PIEWICA. Her outstanding produce and lasting legacy includes Polish National Champion Filly PIANOLA; PINIA – granddam to the brightest star among the Arabian constellations PIANISSIMA; and best producing daughter PIPI, whose progeny forms a whole cast of show-winning and champion-foaling daughters: PISTACJA (Polish National Reserve Champion Filly, twice Polish National Reserve Champion Mare), PIKARDIA (UK & Blommeröd Reserve Champion Mare), PILICA (dam of Polish National, Spring Show & Warsaw Summer Show Champion Filly, European Champion Mare PALMETA) & Polish National Champion Filly PILAR (dam of Polish National, Bełżyce & Falborek Champion Filly PINGA, Spring Show Reserve Champion Colt PIZARRO, PIETA – Vilhelmsborg International Reserve Champion Mare and Pride of Poland 2007 high-seller at 300,000 Euro and Polish National Reserve Champion Filly PINTA – Lot 10.) and Polish National Champions – PIAFF & Bellanda’s sire PILOT, the latter also gaining the acclaim of Blommeröd & UK International Champion Stallion. Through PILOT comes the first link to BANDOLA in Bellanda’s pedigree. This “Queen of Poland” and full sister to US epochal sire of significance BASK blessed the breed with one of the most important sires of the post-war era BANDOS, as well as the most superior Kuhailan representative of the Krzyżyk sire line, UK Champion BANAT, both critical elements in Bellanda’s heritage, and superb female descendants in the shape of Polish National Reserve Champion Mare BELIZA, European & Polish National Reserve Champion Mare BETA, Polish Nationals class Top Three BATALIA and the afore mentioned champion BELGICA. Indulge yourself in the enchanting enigma of black with Bellanda and let her prove that she is capable of achieving at the highest level with incredible consistency and predictability.
