Nordeste (SS)
An outstandingly beautiful black
stallion, bred by Mr. Manuel Braga from Sociedade das Silveiras.
In Portugal, before being exported to Brazil, he won several
tutoring tests level St. George and left a numerous offspring of
superior quality, both at Sociedade das Silveiras and at several
other Portuguese breeders. His first Brazilian offspring belong
to the generation named with the letter A and came out of mares
of all lineages, especially those with colored coats. Nordeste
is son of Trinco MMT, bred by Coudelaria Romão Tavares, a very
traditional Portuguese breeder well-known for their bullfighting
animals. Trinco is a son of the mythological Firme SA, one of
the best known stallions in the Lusitano breed, as he has sired
Novilheiro MV, Opus II MV, Nilo MV and Neptuno MV and thus
become the head of the very important Firme/Nilo/Novilheiro
lineage.
Nordeste’s dam, Xaqueca CI, is a
black Quina (CI) mare, now at Interagro’s brood-mare group.
Xaqueca CI has produced animals of excellent quality. The
progeny of the Firme/Nilo/Novilheiro out of Quina mares has been
one of the greatest achievements of Interagro’s breeding program,
being one of the basic lines for the formation of the Interagro
horse: animals of great beauty, size and athletic qualities
specially bred for the dressage arena.
