Revelanta's sire is the world-renowned Baron's Pride (9122). To write any more about this horse would be a superfluity, other than to say that his work at the stud is unsurpassed at the jjresent day by any other horse. His sire is Sir Everard (5353), also a great breeding horse. Revelanta's dam is the Marchioness* of Girvan (11806). She is by the 3000-guinea horse, Prince of Albion (6178); second dam Bell (1116), by Emperor (277); third dam Loftv.
