Embracing the future The verdant foliage of the tropics and the vibrant hues of graceful historic structures complement the glistening coats of magnificent Arabian horses at Fazenda Floresta, outside of SĂŁo Paulo, Brazil. There, Luciana Fasano has established the foundation for her breeding program through careful selection of individuals who carry the finest purebred bloodlines in the world.

Luciana’s head sire is AAS-Elishahh (Eden C x Sempre), Arabian Breeders World Cup Gold Supreme Champion and two-time United States National Champion. Elishahh is passing on his height, body, and extremely shapely neck to his progeny, along with soulful eyes, beautiful heads and attitude. A wonderful example is his daughter, TM Eline, from the program of Claudia Teixeira, one of Brazil’s top breeders. Elishahh has already sired numerous national winners, including the 2015 Brazilian Gold Champion Junior Filly, FHJ Vania, and the stunning Only Serondella, who was named both 2016 Brazilian National Champion Filly and Supreme Bronze Champion Female. Only Serondella is a fifth-generation representative of the Haras Serondella breeding program of Fabio Amorosino, the President of the Brazilian Arabian Horse Breeders Association.

AAS-Elishahh

“I had the pleasure of judging AAS-Elishahh in Las Vegas, where he was Champion Colt,” Fabio extols. “I was convinced that he should be heavily used in our breeding program, and we did it! In the very first foal crop, Only Serondella (x Jelabie Serondella) came out as a gift! A very feminine and correct filly, with nice proportions and a lot of charisma! She is now, at four years of age, our top producer ever, with two exceptional fillies already on the floor that will be strong contenders at the Brazilian Breeders Cup and Brazilian Nationals this year. Our other Elishahh get, Queniah Serondella and Queridah Serondella, will also compete at Nationals, and reflect the best traits of their father. I believe that a breeder should question himself/herself if each decision was worthwhile, and I am sure that using Elishahh was one of my best, ever!”

For now, Luciana Fasano is enjoying the special pleasure of having all the stallions at home on the farm where she can be close to them each day. She values the opportunity to nurture the bonds she has with each one. She is also enjoying her developing relationships with their second-generation offspring. And that is what it’s all about for a breeder; the magic connection that develops between Arabian horses and their people is a source of great happiness. And it is easy to imagine a future for Luciana and Fazenda Floresta where each year is filled with more joy than the next.
