feeling that Toto Jr. can be even better than sire, Totilas. In the walk, demonstrating outstanding
ground cover, the trot and canter, his light-footedness, balance and strong uphill tendency are
captivating. His nature is outstanding." Dam, Blackmanda, has three generations of mares that
performed at the highest levels and produced Grand Prix horses and licensed stallions. Damsire,
Dutch Champion Rubiquil, won gold at the European Championships. Latino and Sabine Schut-
