Piyayo was not a first generation cross-breed. He was descended from many generations of infusing Hispano-Árabe bloodlines with Pure Spanish bloodlines. The original Pure Arab breeding no longer traceable. In 1986 the British Arabian Society was interested in entering Piyayo on their register and required a minimum of 7% identified Pure Arabian heritage, an extensive search by them in co-operation with Spain could not trace even that small percentage lineage.
The Spanish State Foundation Stud Book for Hispano-Árabe horses (which is now closed) registered all Hispano-Árabe horses submitted, as 50:50 ratio of Pure Spanish (PRE): Pure Arabian blood regardless of the real ratio (if at all identifiable).
Note: In 2002 having validated the breed regeneration plan the Cria Caballar transferred the breed Studbook to UEGHá. The State requirement for conformity of Hispano-Árabe breeding and registration across Spain resulted in the submission of a number of Hispano-Árabe horses meeting breed standards but without correct documentation. To deal with this UEGHá carries an Auxiliary Registry that in effect equates to the original Foundation Stud Book.
Subsequent Hispano-Árabe stock bred according to the rules and regulations passed down from the Stud Book of Spain would enter into a new register that recorded the percentage ratio based on the breeding either from Foundation horses or new F1 generation of PRE x Arabian bloodlines.

Miss Jane Kidd judging
described Piyayo as
“The Rolls Royce of Horses”
PIYAYO
a classic example of the Iberian horse, he was compact and powerful,
short-coupled, strong conformation with excellent dense bone.
His action was extravagant, tempered with the grace and agility Arabian influence.
Piyayo was bred and trained for bullfighting and went on to train and compete in dressage and piussance jumping.
