Canadian Velvet was born 1999, nine month after the import of her mother BMF O'Ryanna from Birch Meadow Farms in Canada. Her sire is UVM Tricolor, a full brother of UVM Nobel. Her sire line is known for its type, beauty and versatility. The former breeder Dr. Donald Balch from the UVM farm said of her grandfather 'UVM Elite' he was the best stallion he bred during the last 30 years. In her dam line you can find such names as Triton Ryan, Applevale Red Fox, Pecos, Windcrest Donna Lee, Kingston, Upwey Ben Don, Orcland Bold Victory, Ulendon and Parade. Canadian Velvet has really an extraordinairy pedigree.

From the beginning she has been a sweetheart, very curious, gentle and friendly. At the age of three we started slowly to work her under saddle. Now she is twentytwo years old and for me she is a dreamhorse.

Velvet learns very easy, is very sensitive, talented, has correct bones and she is an excellent trailhorse.
