1988 Grey Stallion exemplifies the finest in Polish breeding. 

*Bandos x Garnet (X*Bask)

Bred by Ventura Farms, this beautiful 1988 grey stallion exemplifies the finest in Polish breeding. He is sired by *Bandos, one of  the most influential sires of the post-war era. *Bandos left an incomparable legacy in Poland and the United States through his highly prized daughters and sons. He is out of the lovely *Bask daughter, Garnet, who was a full sister to the great Cognac and Gdansk. Legion VF is the ultimate combination of exceptional beauty, substance and outstanding athleticism. His gentle nature and tractable temperament are hallmarks of the *Bandos horses.
