| Sire: | ABRUPT was one of the earliest Hanoverian stallions to enter Canada. Brought to Canada in 1967 |
| by Joe Selinger, ABRUPT produced many competition horses including successful jumpers like |
| ARABELLE (Junior Jumping Champion at Wonderland in 1984, member of the Gold Medal Young |
| Riders Team from Quebec in the same year) and TOUCHSDOWN (three time Canadian Three Day |
| Event Champion and Olympic short list horse, ridden by Bill Ulmer). ABRUPT was a direct son of |
| the Hanoverian line founding Trakehner stallion, ABGLANZ, who’s impact on warmblood breeding |
| and Hanoverians in particular is immeasurable. ABGLANZ blood can be felt through his sons such as |
| ABSATZ, through to ARGENTAN and ARAMIS, as well Olympic horse SLIBOWITZ and even to |
| WELTMEYER and the young prodigy ESCUDO I. |
| Dam: | MINDY was of Thoroughbred bloodlines. Unfortunately, these are unknown. |
| Notes: | AVRIL BAY has been a broodmare all her life and has to her credit the 1995 daughter, AJAWAAN, |
| who was high point mare (tied) for the 1998 Mare Inspections in all of Canada with a score of 8.17 |
| points. AVRIL BAY has lovely movement and a pleasing attitude which she passes on to her |
| offspring. She is currently in foal to the Hanoverian stallion FABRIANO who stands at Celle, |
| Germany. FABRIANO (WENDULAN/AZUR) is a 1987, 16.1HH, Brown stallion who placed first |
| in the 11 month stallion test in 1990 with an overall score of 133.02. Out 36 stallions he was first in |
| jumping (132.37 points) and fourth in dressage (128.55 points). His offspring are endowed with his |
| rhythmical, flowing movement and uncomplicated temperaments. At the 93rd Elite Auction in 1995, a |
| son from his first crop sold for 350,000DM. To date, FABRIANO has no less than 7 licensed sons |
| and 41 State Premium daughters and candidates. |
