Kalaska began breeding in 2004. Ranked "Very Good" as Selle Français stallion(ANSF ranking). As he didn't cover a big amount of mares before 2008, we'll have to wait a little bit more to be able to judge very well his offspring. Anyway, his first foals confirm us in our opinion : they have a very good mind, a great balance with a lot of strength in the back, like River Dance Semilly, exported to Germany where he made the show at 4 YO (cf. video below) ! BSO + 17 (0,66). Some pictures of his offspring :
