Sweet, big bay young horse with three white socks. Very special because of his disposition,  size and nice withers. The excellent an uncommon pedigree, which cannot be found anywhere else, makes this young horse a serious candidate to become a top breeding stallion.

Approved as a Stallion by the ABPSL – Associação Brasileira do Puro Sangue Lusitano.

Sire: Quínio Interagro

Dam: Odalisca (RC), her mother Fidalga (CFR) and other brood mares from the Arsênio Raposo Cordeiro Stud in Portugal, were imported not only because of their individual merits but also to reinforce the introduction of the bloodlines selected to form the Interagro lineage. In this respect what is very special with Odalisca (RC) and this group of (RC) mares is her maternal great-grand mother, Guerrita (MV), the mother of the very famous Novilheiro (MV). Using the offspring of both, Novilheiro (MV) and his mother Guerrita (MV), and the resulting consanguinity, we were able to introduce some of the most desired functional characteristics in the Interagro Lineage (IL).

Dam’s Interagro Progeny: Vistosa, (08/17/01) and Afinada (11/06/04) both with Quilate Interagro; Zaragoza (09/28/03) and Brilhante (11/19/05), both with Profano Interagro; Corsário (11/27/06) and Xisto with Quinio Interagro.

Trainer's Opinion: This tall elegant bay stallion is very special because of his attitude and kind nature. Xisto is a lovely to ride. His body type and correct withers help give his rider a lovely secure place to sit.  Xisto is light and elegant in his appearance and the feel he provides his rider. His large balanced canter is a huge asset. Xisto’s trot and walk get better and better everyday.  We started him with the possibility of presenting him in the 2006 Collection.  At that time he was so tall and immature it would be hard to show his quality.  It is exciting to see that we made the right decision and even more exciting to think of how much more this horse will fill out in his physique and learn in his training in the next few years. He is a big horse with a very loveable personality.  He will need a quiet calm light natured rider to reach his full potential. He is a well behaved stallion at this time with little stallion behavior.  He loves to work and tries very hard to please.  He was kicked by another young horse, not causing him an injury, but it has taken time to regain his confidence around the other stallions in the arena.  His fear is almost completely gone, but in the canter he will get nervous if he feels boxed in by other stallions.  This is an extremely special horse that all riders and grooms that have worked with Xisto can not think of one negative thing to say, they all express admiration for him. He is brave and not spooky unless he feels threatened by another horse. Xisto could be a good match for a taller rider who likes a light sensitive horse and enjoys a forward feeling.  But also will suit a shorter rider because he will give any rider a lovely place to sit.
