Vivaldi de Besilu – Champion Paso Fino
Stallion Vivaldi de Besilu is a fine example of the Paso Fino breed. These elegant horses are known for their smooth natural gait, which is an evenly spaced four-beat lateral movement that makes them extremely comfortable to ride, and is performed with style. “Vivaldi” competes performing the Classic Fino gait, which is considered the most elite level. It is performed at full collection with slow forward speed and extremely rapid footfalls and short steps, both on the rail and on the sounding board - which highlights the Paso Fino's rapid hoofbeats!
Owned by Besilu Collection/Benjamin Leon Jr., Vivaldi was the Paso Fino Horse Association's Grand National Champion Fino Stallion from 2016-2020, and the National Champion Fino Stallion 2017-2020 with rider Eliecer “Perla” Guzman in the saddle. Still competing, he also is beginning his career as a sire, and is passing on his incredible natural gait, conformation, energy, and willingness to work to his foals.
