Sire: ARKANSAS is the top producer of registered
CWHBA offspring and the leading money earning foal futurity sire. He consistently produced top jumpers, including
AZAR, and ALIBI (Toronto Royal Winter Fair winners), performance champions
in dressage and over fences, including ABRAXIS, ALL THE MARBLES, PICASO,
and ALAHAMBRE, and champion conformation mares, including ALLELUAH, ALESIA
and ANJOO. ARKANSAS, imported
from Germany for breeding purposes in Canada, was a member of the Hanoverian
State Stud "Prussian" Quadrille.
His European offspring have earned nearly $200,000 DM! ARKANSAS was sire to the famous ESCUDO I and
EDGAR. ARKANSAS is noted for his
elegant topline and excellent rideability.
Sadly, ARKANSAS is no longer available to us as a breeding stallion,
but his legend lives on in his sons and daughters, grandsons and granddaughters. Dam: ASTRA was a well-boned mare, sound, with an
excellent mind. She served both
as a broodmare and riding horse. She
was a real "Packer", who consistently took her riders to 4 foot. She had a huge heart: in one year she packed
her rider in a full lesson schedule while pulling double duty as a Mom,
with her own and an orphan foal at side.
Her offspring are known for huge jumping scope, consistency and
heart. Notes: ASTAR is a very attractive, dapple-grey gelding
with good bone and substance, correct conformation and gaits. Ideally suited for the amateur or junior rider
with competitive ambitions. ASTAR
is flashy under saddle, yet reliable and uncomplicated to ride. He is scopey over fences, schooled to 4 foot
at home, showing promise for more. ASTAR
has a solid dressage foundation, and is ready for a rider to build on
new movements. Awesome temperament
on this horse! - Very much in tune with his rider/partner, but not overly
sensitive to ride. Loads, clips,
ties, baths and hauls, good for the farrier and vet, ridden indoors and
out, on trails, around farm animals without fuss.
Clean x-rays on file. Call 306-230-5823 (cell phone on sale grounds)
or stop by his stall to arrange a try out of this horse. |
