Profile:

Beautiful, balanced and abounding in maternal elegance, Pelgrima brilliantly combines the immeasurable influence of four legendary broodmatrons of Polish breeding: ARRA, EMIGRACJA, PARMA & PENTODA. European & Polish National Champion, racing Triple Crown holder ARRA and Polish National Champion, the “Pearl of Michałów” EMIGRACJA enter Pelgrima’s pedigree via her remarkable sire EMIGRANT. The pride and joy of his maternal stud, Michałów had long turned down numerous purchase offers, having agreed to part with the stallion only lately at the age of 17, after EMIGRANT had fully completed his breeding duties in Poland. His most memorable get include international champions EMROD, PRUDENCJA, GASPAR, PUSTYNNA RÓŻA, FERRI, FAUSTYNA & MI­GRANT. Pelgrima’s dam PERFAZJA, who graced the stage at the 2006 Pride of Poland Sale, the adorably speckled flea-bitten beauty, is remembered as a twice stakes-placed valiant daughter of BATYSKAF – (PARMA’s grandson through her Derby & Polish National Championship winning son PAMIR) – Polish Racehorse of the Year, winner of the Derby & Criterium St., who was later sold to the Turkish Jockey Club for a smashing amount of $450,000. Proving that he was not just made of muscle, BATYSKAF was also victorious on the show arena, besting some of the best in the breed (including EMIGRANT, PESAL & ARARAT) and being named Polish National Champion Stallion & Best in Show on the most competitive soil at Janów Podlaski. The alluring femininity and stellar conformation are the gifts of Perfazja’s dam PERFORACJA, a classical beauty and Białka’s most cherished broodmatron of today, as dam of Drammen International Champion Stallion, Warsaw Summer Show Reserve Champion Stallion PLAGIAT, United Arab Emirates chief sire PEPER, Comet St. & Arabian Produce – Janów Podlaski St. winner PERKAL, Junior Spring Show class winner PERFIRKA and the “Pride of Białka”, chief multi champion sire PESAL, named Polish National Champion Colt, Polish National, Rome, Dutch, Saint Tropez Arabian Cup & International Dra­mmen Champion Stallion, Polish National, All Nations Cup, Italian, twice Warsaw Summer Show, Pietrasanta, Ströhen Reserve Champion Stallion,  thrice Elran Cup, Vilhelmsborg & All Nations Cup Top Five Champion Stallion and twice World Top Ten Champion Stallion. PERFORACJA herself is the premier daughter of Queen of Białka PENTOZA and granddaughter of Polish National Reserve Champion Mare PENTODA, members of the aristocratic Janów Podlaski family of PIEWICA, whose upper echelon of descendants includes PILARKA, PIPI, PIAFF, PINTA, PINGA, PIETA, PIECHUR, PEPTON, PEPI, POGANIN, PIRUET, PALMETA, PALABRA, PETARDA, PEREŁKA, PSYCHE KREUZA, PSYCHE VICTORIA and last but not least – the exemplary PIANISSIMA.
