HED Caramba, bred by Lerner Diego, is a magical mare. She sprinkles a dust made of that magic over the top of her foals the minute they stand up. Caramba herself, a mare that has traversed a portion of the planet, only to enrich several breeding programs while dazzling with her ability to produce the finest foals. Caramba has an incredible 13 champion foals, out of her total 28 so far.
Prior to being a part of the Aria Collection, she was shown successfully by David Boggs of Midwest Training Centre and garnered a 2006 Canadian National Champion Two-Year-Old Filly award as well as being named a United States National Top Ten Mare. She is a daughter of the legendary sire Magnum Psyche and HED Cajun Queen by *Cajun Prince and a maternal granddaughter of another great mare, NV Ali Bey.
The influence of Caramba not only reaches far and wide but generations deep. Although most of her foals were embryo transfers, she loves being a mother and currently has a promising AJ Radman colt on her side.

Through her dam Embra, by Monogramm, tail female line through Emilda (by Pamir) to Emanacja (by Eukaliptus) tracing to the aristocratic Emigracja. Perhaps, in addition to her beauty, kindness, and show accomplishments — it is her prowess and a breeding mare that has elevated her to a level of distinction. Her production record has been flawless and one thing we’ve “embraced” over the years is that what’s good for our breeding program is most often times good for the industry as a whole and so we shared H Embrace H with Ivan & Sheryl Osorio’s Aspire Arabians who has produced several incredible foals crossed on a multitude of stallions including Ernando AA (2020 bay stallion bred by Aspire Arabians and sired by Emerald J) 2021 & 2022 Scottsdale Gold Champion Colt as well as a Silver Championship at the Arabian Breeders World Cup; Evangeline AA (2022 bay filly bred by Aspire Arabians and sired by Marwan Al Shaqab) 2024 Scottsdale Top Ten Two-Year-Old Filly; and full brother Endeavor AA (2023 chestnut colt) who is a Regional winning yearling colt.
