september 19th - end of the 2023 breeding season
As the breeding season comes to an official close, we would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to all those who expressed interest in Corteo. A special thank you goes out to those who entrusted us with his inaugural year as a stud. Our special stallion has bred various types of mares across North America, promising an exciting mix of offspring. We eagerly await observing which of Corteo's exceptional traits will be inherited by his descendants.
Furthermore, we would like to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of the Tiara Equine team whose dedication has propelled Corteo's development significantly. The golden nugget showed immense talent in jumping and displaying beautiful regular gaits, unwavering courage, and remarkable athleticism.
Lastly but certainly not leastly, our deepest gratitude goes out Debra from Iron Equine Reproduction for her unwavering professionalism and dependability throughout the breeding season. Debra consistently went above and beyond expectations by accommodating mare owners' needs promptly - even arranging collections on the same day or during weekends
Spoiler alert… Corteo will remain at Tiara Equine for the upcoming 2024 season. With ambitious goals in mind, we believe he has a formidable team to achieve them.
September 12th 2023 - 2024 Third foal announcement
Our mare Beaulieu's Quadrella Girl (Beaulieu's Quissini (v. Quidam de Revel) / Dobel's Cento / Accord II) has been confirmed in foal to Corteo W5.
This will be Corteo's third foal we're expecting at our farm.

JULY 16th - 2024 second FOAL announcement
Our mare Quick Silver (Quick Star / Schiron Z) has been confirmed in foal to Corteo W5. This will be Corteo's second foal to be born at our farm.
As time passes, it becomes increasingly difficult to get this special mare pregnant, which makes each future foal even more precious. Anovulatory follicles, fluids, and cysts are among the challenges that abound in achieving pregnancy. However, Quickette was successfully confirmed in foal after the first insemination attempt with Corteo.
We are extremely enthusiastic about the future foal, who should effortlessly fly over the fences. The little one should hit the ground around May 26th 2024.
