SPOTLIGHT FUTURITY COVER STORY:

FIRE AND GOLDD

Fire and Goldd is the stallion dreams are made of, and he is a dream come true for Morgan Runyon and her mother, Renee Pelzman, of Ocala, Florida, who recently

purchased him. Bred by Tim and Marty Shea, “Goldd” is by Afire Bey V and out of

Brassmis, making him a full brother to one of the most prestigious performance horses in the industry, Afires Heir, and a shining example of the Varian dynasty of great sires.

Ar abian Horse Times | 8 | Spotlight Futurity • 2019

SPOTLIGHT COVER STORY

Fire and Goldd has already proven himself as a sire, having a list of National, Regional and Class A winning performance progeny, including but not limited to: Barcelona BF (2018 U.S. National Champion Arabian English Futurity), Five Starr, Go For The Goldd, Hero DGL, Goldd Fever and Goldd Starr, as well as Morgan’s own Goldd Standard (2-time Reserve National Champion, AEPA Futurity section winner/Top Ten and multi-regional champion in several divisions). Mare owners across the board are delighted with their babies, all of whom have Goldd’s signature long, hooky neck, correct conformation, laid-back shoulder and smooth body, not to mention his outstanding temperament. These ingredients are the recipe for success as a performance breeding stallion, and Goldd has them in spades.

Morgan and Renee have been involved in the Arabian horse industry for over two decades and have been clients of Dwane Hankins for over 10 years. They credit Dwane with urging them to purchase Goldd and negotiating the transaction that has given this amazing stallion his own spotlight and pedestal.

Goldd’s journey to Ocala began when Renee and Dwane surprised Morgan with Goldd Standard (“Digger”) in December 2017.

Morgan fell in love with his size, beauty, talent and temperament, as well as his sense of humor. This love affair led her to investigate his sire, and she quickly realized that Fire and Goldd’s progeny are all amazingly talented, beautiful and trainable. Thus began the fateful discussions with the Sheas which led to Goldd leaving Michigan for the long van ride to Ocala, Florida, where he resides with Dwane at his Colonial Downs Training Center, along with Goldd Standard and his 3-year-old daughter Glitter And Goldd (x Stylish Contessa,

by Undulata’s Nutcracker).

“Fire and Goldd puts an outstanding neck, body and disposition on every one of his babies,” says Renee. “We would love to own them all, but that would deprive everyone else of the right to have as much fun as we are having with ours!” Morgan adds, “His rich chestnut coat is as shiny as a new penny and all the chrome trim is the cherry on top! But Fire and Goldd is more than just visually stunning; he is very kind and sweet with an easy-going temperament. He loves attention and always has a sparkle in his eye. He is not arrogant, and his babies all have his excellent temperament.”

Renee says she loves everything about Goldd, but if she had to sum him up in one word, it would be—charisma. “Goldd knows he’s great and yet he’s kind to those around him. He’s totally without conceit but he certainly knows who he is. Fire and Goldd has all the charisma you could wish for! He knows he’s beautiful too, and passes on his stunning type, talent and ultimate winning personality to each and every one of his babies. Who doesn’t want Goldd to go with their roses?”

When Morgan talks to other owners of Fire and Goldd offspring, they too, are head over heels for them and all have the same

compliments of their foals for being intelligent, talented, kind, easy to work with, and having great necks. Although Fire and Goldd has never been shown, he consistently sires English division winners, regardless of the broodmare’s bloodlines. He has been bred to mares from a variety of great performance bloodlines with exceptional results each time, and for a stallion who has had limited promotion, his statistics are incredible.

When it comes to the future of their own breeding program, mother and daughter team plan to remain relatively small, with Fire and Goldd, and a western stallion who will make his show ring debut in the next year and will have babies on the ground this year. Their goal is to offer discerning mare owners the opportunity to breed to a stallion who consistently passes on his outstanding attributes that are perfectly suited for the amateur who wants a jaw-dropping, show-stopping horse that they can run and ride successfully. Morgan and Renee believe that amateur owners are the backbone of the performance industry and, as amateurs themselves, appreciate a horse that can win in the halter arena and go on to perform in a variety of English division classes. Outstanding quality is their goal, and from the look of things, Fire and Goldd will make an even bigger impact now that he has his own throne. Morgan and Renee are excited about Fire and Goldd’s Region 12 Spotlight debut and look forward to enjoying others’ successes with his babies. Their favorite part of the journey will be seeing the joy and happiness his offspring bring to their owners in the show ring and at home.

Fire And Goldd is a Sweepstakes breeding entry, Region 12 Spotlight, AEPA nominee and next year, will be Scottsdale Signature nominated. Make your own dream a reality! ■

Derby D erby D Day ay Ar abian Horse Times | 11 | Spotlight Futurity • 2019

Derby D erby D Day ay Welcome Region 12 Spotlight Right Holders and Participants, The Region 12 Spotlight Board of Directors, Officers and volunteers are preparing another lineup of outstanding stallions for our 13th Annual Region 12 Spotlight Futurity Auction. We hope you will join us Thursday evening, May 9th, for this memorable event to celebrate our beautiful Arabian Horse. Offspring from previously nominated Arabian Stallions will have the opportunity to compete for prestigious titles in a variety of disciplines and an available prize pool of $182,954.00.

The Board of Directors would like to announce several improvements to the program which are expected to provide a better event atmosphere the night of the auction and enhance participation in the program.

• We will continue the online auction prior to the live auction. Only stallions that reach a bid of at least $1,000 will be presented for bid at the Thursday evening live event. At the conclusion of the live auction, those stallions that didn’t go to the live auction, will be back on-line for an additional 10 days before closing the bidding.

• This year’s live event will be held in the Beef and Dairy Barn. Moving to the alternate site allows the event planners more time to set up and begin the social hour at the designated time without delays.

• The BOD has adopted a new auction rule to benefit our program. This change has been asked for by many Spotlight participants throughout the years to put our program in line with other breeding programs in the U.S. AMENDMENT TO THE REGION Xll SPOTLIGHT AUCTION RULES, ADOPTED NOVEMBER 27th, 2018.

I. RULES FOR THE AUCTION AND SUBSEQUENT NOMINATIONS D. AUCTION BREEDING #6. EFFECTIVE AT THE 2019 SPOTLIGHT FUTURITY AUCTION AND GOING FORWARD, any stallion breeding purchased at the auction, or online auction, may be used the year of purchase provided that the entire purchase price has been paid in full the night of the auction or at the time of purchase. Further, use of the breeding the year of purchase must be approved by the nominating Stallion Owner. It is the breeding purchaser’s responsibility to confirm stallion availability if it is their intent to use the breeding the year of purchase. The Spotlight Futurity makes no claims or guarantee of stallion availability the immediate year of purchase. Should a stallion not be available the year of purchase, the breeding buyer’s financial responsibility to the Spotlight Futurity remain as stated in the other rules of the program. If a stallion breeding is used the year of purchase, the stallion owner Auction Certificate and breeding may be used the year of purchase as well, but only if the auction breeding purchaser utilizes the year of purchase option.

Amendment #6 to the AUCTION BREEDING RULES does not change any other rules of the program concerning nominations or payback of prize monies. Auction monies will remain with the original year no matter the year of breeding use.

Increase the strength of your program by including your stallion in this year’s lineup!
