Taraco Fabio

Fabio - named for the England Football Manager, Fabio is of portugese/ spanish origin meaning 'bean farmer' but for us it seemed short for fabulous which this lovely colt certainly is!

This is the fifth foal for Cherimarie by the multiple Royal Welsh winning stallion Danaway Flash Jack! The first, a gorgeous palomino filly (Danaway Fantasy) was swiftly followed by the colts: Danaway Flashback (exported to Germany), Taraco Fiasco (dun colt retained) and Taraco Fernando (dun colt for sale) and now yet another colt! But certainly not one to disappoint in anyway except perhaps his gender!!!! A really striking and substantial chestnut colt with perfect markings this colt combines the best of his sire and dam and is the most similar to Taraco Fiasco as a foal. His pedigree speaks for itself featuring back to back champions as ancestors and siblings. His sire is the multiple Supreme Champion Danaway Flash Jack (RWAS George Prince of Wales Cup Winner & Sup. Ch. of Show 2000, 3 times RWAS winner, Glanusk winner, multiple championship winner). Flash Jack has sired numerous show winners including Royal Welsh winners, has stock exported across three continents (Europe, America and Africa) and is an absolute gentleman as well as a top show stallion and sire. His dam is the fantastic liver chestnut mare, Danaway Cherimarie, unshown to date this smashing mare is a half sister to multiple Supreme Champion and RWAS winning stallion Danaway Tango and she already has offspring exported to Ireland and Germany. He is a full brother to my own Danaway Fantasy and Taraco Fernando, full brother to Danaway Flashback (exported to Germany) and 3/4 brother to Grand National Champion Danaway Sunny (exported to the USA) and 1/2 brother to Danaway Riviera (exported to Ireland). Fabio, like his siblings, is a wonderful natured colt to have around, he has a confident and inquisitive temperament and combines action, conformation, quality and character in one package.
