Arabian

*Azkaban Montenegro+++/
1989 Egyptian Arabian
For those of you who don't know me very well, I'm not an Arab person. But one night, for whatever reason, I had a dream about a huge (comparativly), bay Arabian, dancing through the pastures of Black Gryphon Farms. He was tremendously beautiful, with a long mane that flicked in the wind as the stallion trotted - no, floated - across the snow. A gifted preformer with incredible action and a willing mind, this Arabian was grace and style personified: the epitome of Egyptian perfection. I had to have him. With a little help from Erynn's impeccable stock, I do.
By *Al Azraff Hadiye++ out of Aria.

Percheron Sport Horse

Ch. D'Artagnan
1987 bay Percheron Sport Horse stallion
No one thought much of this tall, dark and hansome stallion - at first. People heard "draft cross" and thought "big and clunky." Then we took him to the MBF Jumpers Challenge, where he leapt deftly over a mere 7'8" fence. That got people thinking!
SF: $900

Monsieur *SHS*
1987 bay Percheron Sport Horse stallion
Another big beauty, Monsieur has HF's finest linage and top training all working for him - but even without those assets, his fabulous movement and disposition could easily stand alone. Monsieur *SHS* is by Ch. SC Promise Me This, HF's top Percheron stallion.

HFSHC Pleasure Futurity Nominated

Welcome
1987 black-bay Percheron Sport Horse stallion

SF: $800

RWB Line

NC SNC RWB Stars N' Stripes Forever *SHS*
1991 chestnut RWB Line stallion
When I created this guy in December of 1998, I wasn't sure how well the line would do in competition. I feared they'd be so versitle that they couldn't be "good" at anything - that they'd just be "ok" at everything. Stars has proved me wrong! This hansome fellow can ride a flawless 3rd Level Dressage test, and a few hours later be earning a blue in Pro-Series reining. Talk about talent! He's also the sire of NC RWB Action Figure, GC RWB Lucky Stars, and GC RWB Southern Lady, to name a few. Recently SHS approved in a field of more than 60 horses!
SF: $2500
HFSHC Pleasure Futurity Nominated

1986 chestnut Trakehner stallion
HF's most famous Trakehner, this stallion has sired countless foals who are excelling in all disciplines. He also just happens to be one of the TOP Grand Prix Dressage competators in the game.

SF: $1750
HFSHC Pleasure Futurity Nominated

GC SC Masquerade
1988 dappled buckskin tobiano Trakehner stallion
Rare color and rare talent make this stallion...well, rare! Masquerade is a gifted eventer, with the grace for dressage, the strength for show jumping, and the stamina for cross country. He's also incredibly hansome, and makes quite a statement at halter shows. Watch for his son Ch. Gold Card in the winner's ring as well.
SF: $1000
