| 2009 foaling season :
Styleschutz produced 4 males and 4 fillies. Why is Gerval havong only males ??? At Gerval we prefer selecting sex for geldings which are easier to handle and show. After my master degree, I can choose the sex of my foals with a 70% accuracy. |

Hannes Schweisgut, President of the World Haflinger Federation wrote an article on Gerval Farm in the Haflinger Pferde, a world published magazine. Here is the translation from German.
Translation"""In the
course of the summer Emilie Laval from the stud Gerval in Melbourne,
Canada, visited Fohlenhof Ebbs. Mrs. Laval has been an inspired
Haflinger breeder for many years, but is also an avid rider.
Particularly dressage is what she demonstrated with her pure bred
Haflingers in Canada and the US. In addition to her focus on
sport and training, she also keeps a couple of stallions at her
stud, all of them with Tyrolean bloodlines from different studs in
Canada and the US. Emilie Laval has visited Tirol on many
occasions and has demonstrates the Haflingers talent for sporting
events besides being used for breeding. Styleschutz and Meister
Brau show close ties with the origin of the pure bred Haflinger not
only due to their names. We hope that this passion and success
continues on the stud Gerval.""""""
