Elios spent one season on the racetrack winning a race on 1600 m. His sire line is of the legendary milk-gray stallion Bairactar or. ar. brought from the desert to the famous Weil stud for King Wilhelm I of Württemberg in 1817 at the age of 4.

At Weil, Bairactar, who greatly influenced the fortunes of European Arabian horse breeding over the past 200 years, was the monarch's favorite mount, and until the end of his life when he died at the age of 26 in 1839, he was an active sire who left 37 great stud mothers and 7 famous stallions for the stud.

Elios' sire bred in Janów Podlaski, Sabat, measuring as much as 159 cm in his withers, was an outstanding racer. During 2 seasons he started 10 times, where he always was placed in the paid places. He won most of his races (6), including the Kurozwêki Award, Ofira, Bandos.

Not bad on the track did also his sons – Fortunat, Sergio and our Elios. Tradition in the pedigree of Sabat and Elios obliges – Sabat's sire was Wojslaw, a stallion successfully used not only in show breeding where he proved to be the sire of many deserving stud mothers.

Wojslaw's son was also a phenomenal on the racetrack Druid of Michałow Stud, the winner of the most prestigious races, including Polish Derby. Druid still remains the best Polish Arabian horse after World War II, who out of 15 races in which he competed, won as many as 13, and in the remaining two he finished second.

This phenomenal stallion was sold to the Turkish state stud Jockey Club for a price of 500.000 USD, which was almost half the amount obtained at the historic auction in Janów Podlaski in 1999.

On the other hand, Sabat’s half-sister was a magnificently running Savannah – in her first season at the track, she won the Ofira, Oaks and Comparative races. In her second season (2002) she was unbeaten, winning all the prestigious named races in which she participated, including Ofira, Figaro, Michalow, Europe and Cabaret.

Also, her full brother Saracen, was doing very well on the track, as well as Sarmata (by Pepton) or the mare Salsa – Sabat's full sister.

Elios' dam Emanza, in turn, carries in her pedigree the beauty of her sire – the stallion Ecaho, Polish Champion and, after being sold to the USA, also Top Ten of the National Championships there and Region II and San Fernando Valley show champion.

Ecaho proved to be an invaluable sire of show horses and stud mothers but was also a brave racing horse. In his career at the track he scored 2 seasons and 20 starts of which he won twice, and was second four times and third seven times.

Ecaho also gave 35 race winners. Among his show-winning offspring are such horses as World Champion Emanda and European Champion Palmeta.

On the dame side, Emanza's grandfather is a phenomenal example of a beautiful and brave Arabian – Pamir – Polish Champion and 1993 Best Horse of the Show, twice Polish Reserve Champion and Champion of the Stockholm Nations Cup. On the other hand, also a Derbyist and winner of the Bandos and Sambor Awards, Racehorse of the Year, father of Derbyists Gafal, Batyskaf and Cheetah or Oaksistas: Elcanta, Emanuela and Wiatka. Sold at the millennium auction in Janów Podlaski to Brazil, he fetched a price of $100,000.

In addition to Elios, Emanza also produced the stallion Eros Gazal by Gazal Al. Shaqab, who, despite his show origin on his sire's side, made a name for himself as a talented racer by competing 8 times, 5 of which he placed in money, once winning over a 1600 m distance.

Elios, a beautiful, eye-catching Arabian, carrying the monarchical charm of his legendary great-grandfather Bairactar, of powerful build and great character, superbly trained in dressage, has already managed to prove the potential inherent in his ancestry by winning for LovEnPeas the gold medal at the CEN National Polish Competition in P class over a distance of 50 km in Endurance Riding in Michalow in 2024.
