Shagya-Arabians are few in number in the USA but check out these endurance horses and their notable achievements as published in April’s AERC’s 2026 Award Standings:
National Limited Distance Best Condition Award:
#1. Marigold by Bayram (*Oman x *Biala) owned by Valery Kanavy.
National Best Condition Award:
#1. Rhett OKS by *KS Rubin (Paris x Rasga) owned by Kathy Voyer.
Even the sole Hungarian Warmblood in the rankings, the mare H Ellen’s Lela, traces back to the imported Shagya-Arabian mare, *52 Gazal II-6 (bred by Babolna). This mare is 1st in the AERC’s Regional Points Championship and Regional Mileage Championship (Mountain Region) and 4th on the National Mileage Championship Sr. division.
There are 20 +/- Approved Shagya-Arabian stallions currently available for breeding here in North America…
Of those, I believe Bayram, *Dante LCR, *KS Rubin and Under Milkwood have get that are actively competing in limited distance and endurance here in USA. Let me know if there are any others 🙂
Breed your mare to a Shagya-Arabian.
Enjoy the Ride.
