Hailing from the Pampas region of South America, the Criollo is a breed shaped by history. These athletic stock horses are descendants of the mounts of Spanish conquistadors and still retain their ancestors' regal appearance. Hardy and reliable, they quickly became the horse of choice for South American gauchos - the skilled horsemen of the region.

Born in 2007 and imported from Uruguay's renowned Cabana Septiembre, Jaguel Hilton is currently the only Criollo stallion standing at stud in the United States. Hilton's achievements include two qualifications for the prestigious Freno de Oro/Freio de Ouro world finals, the breed's most famous ranch horse versatility competition.

Now retired from competition and standing at his current home, Gravitas Criollos in Missouri, Hilton is helping to spread the word on what amazing partners Criollos are. His offspring are already demonstrating the breed's versatility as working ranch horses across the USA.
