February
2009 -- Scottsdale Show!
Three offspring of Blac Knight represented Magic Image
Arabians at our Scottsdale debut. Shah
Zammm was Top Ten in the
2-year Stallion AAOTH (he was not entered in the open class, but he did
beat horses who went on to be Top Ten in the open); Magic Rendition was
Top Ten in Half-Arabian Yearling Fillies with Al Gruppen and in
Half-Arabian 1-2 yr
Fillies AAOTH. Precocious Magic
caught a very bad cold as the
show began, and spent most of the show at a nearby farm, recovering. We
are pleased to report that she is finally feeling much better, and will
be available for viewing for the remainder of the
show. These three horses can be seen at Freeland Farms' barn at
the showgrounds or at the nearby farm of Equine Image Center.
Contact Sharon (334) 590-4742 or Glenna (616) 403-3436 for directions.
November 2008
Blac
Knight babies rocked at the Dixie Gulf Panhandle RuffOut Show in Baker,
FL! Our 5-month old Straight Egyptian filly, Precocious Magic (x
Kasbana), won the weanling class, the Junior Championship, Mare AOTH,
and Mare JTH. Because she was under 2, she was ineligible to compete
for Grand Champion, AOTH Champion, or JTH Champion, though she did
score higher than the winners of those championships! Magic Rendition,
a 6-month-old Half-Arabian filly also won all of her classes (including
the Half-Arabian Junior Championship – the only one she was old enough
for...) and beat the Half-Arabian Supreme Champion of the show in
Half-Arabian Mare AOTH! Both fillies were the youngest in all of their
classes. Sweet As Pie, Blac Knight's oldest living get was named
Reserve Senior Champion Half-Arabian Mare (shown by 13-yr-old Brittany
Bridges), and his yearling colt, Ra-Horakhty, won his yearling class
and was 2nd in Stallion AOTH (behind the Supreme Champion of
the show).
Noble Conquest won Most Classic Arabian. He was shown by 17-year-old
Paul Hollon, who also showed Liebergeist to Reserve Senior Champion
Half-Arabian Gelding. Brittany Bridges showed Liebergeist in
Half-Arabian Western Pleasure and Ms KSU in Arabian Hunter Pleasure
just 2 weeks after bringing them out of retirement (2 Blues, 1 Red, 2
Yellows, and 1 6th).
Ra-Horakhty was trained and shown by Gene Reichardt; all of the others
were conditioned and trained by Paul and Brittany and shown by amateurs
in all classes.
September, 2008
Shah Zammm brought home
“the blues” at the Michigan Breeders Futurity. He won the yearling
Futurity with Al Gruppen, and then won the AOTH class with Sharon
Tamplin. He also represented his sire during the Futurity Stallion
Auction, where adults and children came into the arena (complete with
raincoats and umbrellas) to pet him.
July, 2008
Two Blac Knight colts won Regional Yearling Top
Tens: Ra-Horakhy won at Region 15, and MI Khalido won at Region
18.
June, 2008
Ra-Horakhty (Blac Knight x DB Hamra) went to his
first
show June 19th in Virginia, where he won his Yearling colt class and
was
named Junior Champion!
Shah Zammm (Blac Knight x Au Rodeo Queen) made
his debut
at Region 13 Championship, where he received a Top Five!
Both of these colts had little time to prepare;
they
just began conditioning/training May 5th. We are proud of our
boys!
