SPLENDIDA belongs to the dam line of MILORDKA, a grey mare born at Slawuta in 1816 and descend more particularly from SAGA 1936 by HARDY. SAGA gave three exceptionnal daughters who each fonded their branch of the line : CANARIA by TRYPOLIS, and the full sisters ESTOKADA and SAKLA by the great AMURATH SAHIB. CANARIA is the dam of illustrious CELEBES and of GWARA from who come the legends GWARNY, GERWAZY, GWALIOR, GWADIANA, GDYNIA, GDANSK, COGNAC, GRANDORR, GWIZD and GARNIZON. ESTOKADA is the foundress of the most famous line of polish champions, the incredible 'E' line of Michalów. From her are notably descended the champion mares ESTEBNA, ELKANA, ESTANCJA, ESKLAWA, EMPRESSA, EMIGRACJA, EMIGRANTKA, EL DORADA, EMANACJA, EMILDA, EMANDA, EMANDORIA, EMMONA, EMIRA, ERLANDA, EGINA and the champion stallions EUFRAT, EMIGRANT, EKSTERN, ENDEL, ENRILO and EMANOR.
SAKLA, her full sister was for her part exported from Janów to Sweden by Arvid Aaby-Ericsson in 1962 with her daughter SAKE by EL TRIPOLI at her side. Before being exported to Tom Chauncey Arabians in the US, SAKE gave SALEXJA by European champion stallion EXELSJOR, POLISA by POHANIEC and SAUDI by DARDIR who after his sale to Germany, produced among others the racing phenomenon SANTHOS and the chiefsire GADIR. This last one was used for two seasons in Poland where he left the etheral European reserve champion mare ESTARDA, and the Swedish National champion mare EWAKUACJA.
SALEXJA is the dam of SALAMALAIKA by ALGIER, SANDA by DARDIR, POLKA by European Champion POHANIEC and SAGANA by European Champion ENGANO. POLKA is, in her turn, the mother of chiefsire PRIMO by ENGANO, who was imported to Poland to serve the mares of Janów and reinforce his sireline. He produced his successor, the Polish National Junior champion ESCULAP.
Before her sale to the USA, the bay SAGANA has already illustrated herself in the showring, winning both Junior and Senior Swedish National championships as well as the junior titel at famous Nations Cup in Aachen, and in the breeding barn. She gave birth to no less than three Swedish National champion mares : PROSBA by PROBAT and full sisters SADZA and SZANSA by Swedish National Champion RUSAZCIE. SADZA carried on the family tradition by producing MEDALJ by MENES, who became no less than Swedish, European and World Champion Stallion.
Sister SZANSA, a Swedish National and international champion, is also a remarkable broodmare as she is already the dam of our Swedish reserve champion filly SPLENDIDA by WADIM, the third generation of Swedishnational champions, her full sister SORELLA, Scandinavian Open reserve champion filly, and Kumla reserve champion filly SALZA by KHIDAR.
SPLENDIDA's sire WADIM was bred at Michalów, son of american stallion GRANDORR imported with the goal to reintroduce the sireline of his illustrious father NABOR, the first descendant of SKOWRONEK to be used in Poland, and the sire of the first great international champions born in Poland.
Sold to Sweden, WADIM became National Champion there and also won the titles of European and Nations Cup reserve champion stallion. The dam of WADIM is the beautifull WARSZULA, a PALAS daughter and BANDOS granddaughter, who was Swedish national champion and Polish reserve national champion herself.
