Personal Relationships:
 
Nicole:  "Monaco is a social butterfly he wants to interact with all humans and all horses, very playful and loves attention. Very sweet boy loves a cuddle when you are trying to muck him out. He loves playing with the big bay next door. To ride he is a dream, very comfortable off the leg, and very responsive. He is such a quick learner and will excel through the levels with time and training."
 
Wayne: "Monaco is super playful and absolutely loves attention. He’s always the first one to come and say hello and is constantly trying to catch your eye. He’s lovely with the other horses and has such great manners.
It’s honestly hard to stay in a bad mood around Monny — he’s funny, happy, and just has the best energy. He’ll be the ultimate “happy place” for the right person."
 
Lineage:
 
Monaco de Aimaran (2020) is a striking example of elite Spanish breeding, carrying a pedigree that blends proven functionality, classical morphology and some of the most influential bloodlines of the modern PRE.
He is sired by Amaranto de Aimaran (2008), a stallion renowned for transmitting presence, elasticity and quality of movement. Amaranto de Aimaran is by Pegaso XX (2000), a highly influential stallion whose impact is strongly felt through his sire Animador II (1989) — one of the most respected names in the breed, celebrated for producing horses of exceptional balance, rideability and expressive movement. Pegaso XX is out of Organza II (1999), further reinforcing this line with depth from Ingenioso XX and Estrella XVI, adding consistency and refinement.
On the dam side, Monaco de Aimaran is out of Trova (2004), herself bred from a powerful and enduring maternal line. Trova is by Olimpico XVI (1999), tracing directly back to Animador II, creating a valuable and intentional concentration of this influential bloodline. His maternal granddam Moravita (1984) brings further strength through Calderón (1961) and Cascajera X, names associated with substance, durability and classical Iberian type.
Notable relations throughout Monaco de Aimaran’s pedigree include appearances of Animador II, Letardo II, Ingenioso XX, Olimpico XVI, and Calderón — stallions whose influence has shaped generations of correct, trainable and physically capable PRE horses. The thoughtful linebreeding present here is particularly prized, offering genetic cohesion rather than randomness, and contributing to mental stability and long-term soundness.
Monaco de Aimaran’s lineage reflects a breeding philosophy centred on excellence, tradition and longevity. This is a pedigree that consistently produces horses with the presence to impress, the mind to work, and the quality to develop into exceptional riding partners — making Monaco de Aimaran not only a standout individual, but a horse of genuine depth and enduring value.
