Zodiac’s Mario Andretti is a spectacular medium silver grey male backed by a truly unique and powerful pedigree. He is sired by our one-of-a-kind herdsire Leviticus—half light silver grey and half true black—and out of Graceful Fawn, bringing together elite grey and dark color genetics.
This pairing combines the influence of JLFA Casanova’s Peruvian Frango (son of the legendary Snowmass Peruvian Casanova) on the sire side with 10x Champion GMFA Spalding on the dam side—creating a standout male with both genetic strength and visual appeal.
Mario has excellent conformation with a strong, balanced frame. His fleece is very dense with long staple length and well-defined bundles of crimpy fiber, which have continued to improve as he matures.
He made an impressive debut in the show ring at just 6 months old, competing in the Iowa shows in October 2020 and earning multiple Blue Ribbons in competitive juvenile grey classes, along with a ribbon in walking fleece. His early success highlights both his fleece quality and overall presence.
Now entering his breeding career, Mario is already proving his value as a herdsire, and we are excited to see the continued impact of his offspring.
