SIRE: BALTA’CZAR

“Balta’Czar’s “bombproof” disposition makes him an ideal stallion to subdue hot or ‘temperamental’ mares. His superior jumping form (he received a “9” in jumping at his stallion approval) makes him an excellent choice to improve jumping style and technique for the hunter/jumper ring. Balta’Czar can always be counted on to improve the mare to whom he is bred. In the breeding world, there are very few Improvement Sires; Balta’Czar is one of them. Earning his life-time approval thru sport, Balta’Czar shines in many venues. With limited showing, he has proven himself in the competitive hunter world and has been successful in the Hunter Derby arena.”
