*KIRAT II, 1967 Bay Mare (SALUDO X BIZANCIO II), bred by don Luis Ybarra y Ybarra, Seville, Spain *KIRAT II was purchased in 1978 as part of the first breeding group acquired by Dave and Molly Stanley.
They imported her to the USA in 1979. Kirat was subsequently owned from 1986 to1990 by Lucy Whittier, and then was repurchased by Stanley Ranch, where she lives today, at age 30, as 'madrona' to her two young grandsons.
The lifetime production of *Kirat II was fourteen foals. All of Kirat's offspring that have been shown are champions. Carol Mulder rated *Kirat II at age 16, and gave her 'excellent' ratings in these categories; eye, head set, neck length, throatlatch, front legs, hind legs, back, loin,coupling, walk, trot, action, and tail carriage. Mrs. Mulder's overall comment was "a really lovely mare of outstanding merit - real quality".
Kirat's tail female line traces to SULTANE, and her sire's female line goes to GHAZEL.
