2nd ABCCMM Inspection Visit Planned
Dr. Getulio Vieira rides a young MM gelding for the ABCCMM inspection Dr. Getulio Tadeau Vieira returns to the US in May to inspect U.S. born Marchador horses. USMMA members who are also members of the ABCCMM wanted to have their horses maintain Brazilian registry as well. The Brazilian association has strict guidelines and it inspects all horses for conformation, gait and temperment at age three before the horses are fully registered. Lynn Kelley is coordinating the effort again and we plan to host our first clinic during the inspection visit as well.
For more information about the inspection process, please read the attached pdf which was an article published after the 2005 inspection. 2005 marked the 1st time an inspection was ever held outside of the Marchador’s native country, Brasil.

First All-Marchador Class in Scottsdale
La Paz Jivago after winning the class in Scottsdale December 2005 marked the first Marchador-only classes at a local all-breed and gaited horse show. Held in Scottsdale Arizona with horses from Summerwind Marchadors and Great Lakes Marchadors participating. Three classes were held with at least four Marchadors in each class. None of the horses had shown before and all looked spectacular and well in hand.
Because of the limited number of horses in each area, it is easier to join an all-breed show if you are interested in showing your Marchador.
Show rules can be obtained from the USMMA office. See our events calendar for events happening in your area.
