Baluga x Hoc's Seclusion
We knew we had an incredible dam (an AOS foal!), with lines back to the legendary Brilliant Invader/Souvenir. Hoc’s Seclusion is from a long line of international and Olympic eventing offspring and grandsire Salute needs no introduction in dressage or jumping circles. The dam is free and light under saddle. She jumps with a graceful ease and has a remarkable canter for which her bloodline is famed. The dam’s temperament is delightful.
When it came time to breed a true performance horse from our stunning mare, we wanted something unique and with the help of the AOS team we chose Chris Chugg’s (producer of Vivant and ASB Conquistador) young licenced Hanoverian stallion Baluga (imp) - a very new and exciting prospect for Australian breeders. Baluga is a modern and elegant type, and his jump is described by Chris as athletic, effortless and light off the ground. Baluga scored 9.04 in his stallion licencing test in Germany for his free jumping, and is already competing with success in young horse classes under both Chris and his wife Helen. Plus, he has an incredible nature!
Sire and dam have created a spectacular filly and born performer in Aurora, who has calm and maturity, a mischievous charm, a bold and inquisitive nature, and a strong yet elegant style. This exquisite foal represents lines very new in Australia.
