Bendigo is a stallion of high-quality type, with an absolutely correct topline and an exceptional neck, which he reliably passes on to his offspring.
Beyond his excellent conformation, he stands out for his outstanding character and strong work ethic.
He is a true representative of the Welsh Cob breed, known for being one of the most versatile horse breeds. He works both in hand and under saddle.
At the age of ten, he began his sports career, in which he continues to climb steadily up the performance rankings.
Although he falls into the pony and small horse category in terms of size, his tremendous willingness to work and bravery allow him to compete successfully — often outperforming much of the field.
He has achieved performance success in dressage, show jumping, and eventing.
Pedigree zde:
Bendigo was born at the Taraco Stud in England, where Welsh ponies have been bred since 1998. This stud specializes in combining top-quality genotype with exceptional color: "Color without compromise!" Their horses have been sold to Denmark, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Finland. Bendigo eventually made his way to the Czech Republic.
The Cobs from Taraco are known for their pleasant temperament, correct conformation, high action, and a unique ability to excel in any discipline — whether in hand, under saddle, or in harness. As a bonus, they also come in stunning colors.
Though Taraco is a small stud, the quality of their breeding is truly breathtaking — hundreds of champions across Europe, including two winners at the prestigious Royal of England show: Taraco Renegade and Taraco Fiasco.
