He has been trained by Luisa Valenca daughter of the famous Portuguese Maestro Luis Valenca. In 1988 we brought him to Germany and started a everlasting friendship. Umbaba is very strong-minded but combined with a honest and solid character. A good luck gave him mares with equal attributes and therefore they produce foals straight minded. We are very happy about this fact as in 10 years none of our clients had complains.

Umbaba’s career highlights include three of Portugal’s highest honors: the National Champion of Portugual (1983), and two-time Golegã Horse Fair Champion (1981, 1982). Umbaba is 3/8 Veiga, 3/8 Coudelaria Nacional, 1/8 from Carlos Ferriera de Miranda’s breeding stock and 1/8 from Dr. Alberto Ayres Mateus’ breeding stock. Legacy has a striking resemblance to his sire and has many of the same traits as his full brother, Saphiro.”
