Mulawa Moments

KAVALLE MI | An Enduring Icon

Congratulations to Joanne & Ram Gunabalan of JR's Dream Arabians on their continued success with KAVALLE MI . 2019 has been another incredibly successful year for KAVALLE, named both United States National & Scottsdale Classic Reserve Champion Senior Stallion, as well as, most importantly, earning credentials as the sire of several Canadian National & Regional Champions. Special from the moment he arrived, KAVALLE has gained universal acclaim as both a sire and as an archetype of the classic Arabian stallion. Thank you to the Gunabalan Family, and to both Andrew & Angela Sellman, for giving him every opportunity to succeed as an icon of the breed.
