SABA DA is a beautiful Arabian horse born in May 2020 in the prestigious private Romanian Stud – Danubius Arabians. The stud was born in Romania in 2016 out of the love and passion for horses and pursuing a long-time dream. Danubius Arabians is located 45 kilometres south of Bucharest, in the middle of a forest and surrounded by beautiful pastures. In its short life, Danubius Arabians managed to acquire and produce beautiful horses from prestigious lines. Today they own some of the most beautiful and awarded Arabian horses in the world and they still prioritized their investments in high quality genetics for the future.
Saba DA has all the class and qualities to compete in any country in the world, what a huge privilege for Romania to show her grace in the ring show.
