Candiota Stud Farm at Sicab 2014.

Soon this stud farm will be involved in the International Horse Show, with the participation of our in-house rider, Jesús Morales, in the disciplines of dressage and high school jumping. In the discipline of dressage he will participate in the pole bending event with the special act of performing the complete REPRISS with the reins tied to his waist. This very difficult feat has made Jesús Morales known throughout the world of horses as a pioneer in this performance. His performance is accompanied by a pair of guitarists to enhance and add beauty to the act.

We will also enter several horses in long-rein and high school jumping.
