2005-2006 Photos are below. For more Photos of Maestoso II Shama II continue on to MAESTOSO II SHAMA II PHOTOS PAGE TWO

"Shama" is a beautiful example of the charismatic Maestoso line, with his noble face, huge dark eyes, and sweet as a puppy personality. The judges love his floating trot and awesome canter. He has matured to an elegant 15.1h with a well-shaped and arched neck and a beautiful head. He has a flowing topline and strong back/loin. He is a modern type Lipizzan yet stays true to his classical heritage. According to Dr. Oulehla, retired Director of the Spanish Riding School and Piber Stud Farm, "Shama" offers a unique genetic mix which would be attractive and beneficial for any U.S. breeder.

"Shama" made his showring debut in June 2004, after only 5 months under saddle, winning at Training and First Level. "Shama" continues to excel as he moves up the levels, currently schooling fourth level, further proving his exceptional talent and trainability.

Show successes:
2005 - USDF All-Breeds Award at 1st Level, 1st Place
2004 - Many high-point awards, many scores in 70%'s
2004 - scored an amazing 81.153% at Training Level (Spokane, August 2004)
2004 - ODS Championship Pas-De-Deux (with Pluto III Canada as partner)
2004 - USDF All-Breeds Awards at Training Level, 3rd place
