Startling young black stallion with a very interesting pedigree from the Firme (SA)/Nilo (MV)/Novilheiro (MV) lineage. His dam Barqueira (RC) is by the famous Saloia II (MV) – a daughter of Novilheiro’s mother Guerrita (MV) – with Nilo (MV) – see Stallion Gallery. From his father side, Trinco (RC) is a grandson of Venturoso III (MV), whose dam, Oferta (MV) is also the mother of Danúbio (MV) – see Stallion Gallery. Barqueira (RC) is a very highly punctuated, Gold Medal mare with an outstanding offspring in Portugal and Brazil. Trinco (RC) is a very special stallion; his intelligence and trainability make him a star.

Trainers’ opinion: Trinco may not be tall, but he has the heart of a giant! He has three correct gaits and a very well balanced body. This horse will go into battle for the right owner. His eye is bright and his is trying to learn what you are saying all the time. This is the type of horse who loves dressage; he will love to learn all the levels and will be bored if his life is not a challenge. I feel confident that with the right training this horse has the capacity to be a Grand Prix Dressage horse.

Trinco is a very special Stallion. He may not be tall but his heart is the size of a giant! His intelligence and trainability makes him a star! He loves to work and is quite an athlete. He has three correct gaits and a very well balanced body. This horse would go into battle for the right owner. His eye is bright and he is trying to learn what you are saying all the time. This is the type of horse who loves the process of Dressage because it makes since to him. He will love to learn all the levels and will be bored if his life is not a challenge. I feel confident with the right training this horse has the capacity to be a Grand Prix Dressage horse. Trinco is forward thinking. He will be a reflection of his rider and their training program. If he gets a kind, intelligent owner he will be a star!

Challenges: He will need a program that is interesting or he will become bored. He is very sensitive and will always go better for the rider who is quiet and light with their aids. He would be nervous with a harsh or nervous rider. He is sensitive to his ears being touched.

Suitability: This horse can become someone’s best friend. He would go well for a small quiet amateur that is serious about their riding. He needs a program and a challenge. Because he is so smart, his rider will need to be riding with goals and wanting to train him. He will not be a happy horse for a weekend rider of someone who want to have a beautiful horse to hack around a farm. He will be a competitor. He will show off and want to be learning. We get a great feeling about this horse that he will make the right person very happy!
