President’s

Letter

| by Julie Alonzo

We Have so Much to Celebrate

Dedicated to the Spanish and Portuguese Horse

IALHA PRESIDENT Julie Alonzo

The 2012 IALHA National Championship and Foundation Celebration truly lived up to all my hopes. The event demonstrated that good people with a commitment to working together can overcome any number of obstacles. I’d like to take a moment to publicly acknowledge IALHA Show Chair Amy Star for the countless hours she devoted to the show, not only at the event (where she worked a minimum of 16 hours a day for 10 days straight), but also in the months leading up to it. She set a marvelous example for all of us on her show committee.

On the foundation side of things, Mary Adams was a superbly calm and competent person in the show office throughout the week. The Amy-Mary combination would be hard to match! The show was a success by any metric: We had more horses and riders participating than we’ve seen in years; financially, it was a winner; and people enjoyed themselves tremendously.

The IALHA has more to celebrate than just a successful national show, however.

Our membership rolls continue to grow, close to 1,700 through November 2012 – 65 more than we had about the same time last year – and new registrations keep arriving. The number of participants in the USDF All Breeds program is still on the rise, and we’re hearing reports from members all across North America who are finding new ways to introduce their IALHA-registered horses to the larger equine community.

I also am seeing more youths getting involved actively. Here in Oregon, for instance, we’ve had early sign-ups for an upcoming halter training clinic given by Howard and Erica Peet, including 11-year-old Patrick McCann from Washington state, 16-year-old Meagan Hansen from Northern California; and 14-year-old Paige Thill from Oregon. Although Patrick has not had the opportunity to show at an IALHA show yet, Meagan made her debut at the 2012 Canadian National Show, and Paige at the 2012 Oregon State Fair. Look for all three in the future!

We also had great youth classes at the National Show this year, truly impressive displays of sportsmanship and good riding. I would be remiss not to mention that, in addition to being active competitors, Dartanyan and Summer Star were incredible volunteers at this year’s National Show. They were tireless, unfailingly smiling and pleasant. Dartanyan’s name badge at the show read, “I could be President.”

Speaking as one who knows the job rather well, I’d like to go on the record to state that when he runs for this office in the future, Dartanyan Star has my vote. ◗ AM

Much Gratitude

Dedicated to the Spanish and Portuguese Horse

ANDALUSIAN PUBLISHING OFFICE LIONHEART PUBLISHING, INC.

Hopefully you renewed in time to receive your 2013 IALHA calendar. We hope you used the 2012 calendar to note the many wonderful opportunities that arose for our horses and their promotion over the last 12 months. I have been impressed by the many opportunities I have seen.

The steadfast devotion of our members has been generously evident in so many ways and venues in 2012. We’ve heard about well-attended shows in Canada, the ERAHC series on the East Coast, Pin Oak, the 12th anniversary of the Fiesta of the Spanish Horse, and the IALHA National Doug Ramsay Championship and Foundation Celebration. Dedicated aficionados ensured that the Silent Auction at Nationals truly was loaded with generous donations.

Working equitation has found a firm foothold in Texas, with regular clinics at Haras Dos Cavaleiros and three competitions (one at Pin Oak, one near Waco, and at our own Nationals). More Iberian horses are competing in open dressage than ever. Ranches in Mexico, such as Las Morerìas and Yeguada Centurian, added newsworthy international grace through their presence at U.S. events.

The loyalty of vendors whose wares enhance the beauty and enjoyment of Andalusian and Lusitano horses can be enumerated gratefully: El Sueño Español, Mustang Productions, La Tienda Española, Botas la Mundial, Elise Genest, The Iberian Connection, Aastadt Das and Making Magic Productions. Thanks for sticking by us and helping to make our National Show truly memorable for all in attendance.

The annual IALHA Art Contest drew international participation this year, culminating in a stunningly captivating image by Frédérique Lavergne for the National Show program and t-shirt. (See artwork from Frédérique Lavergne on the front cover.) The on-going draw of Medieval Times and Cavalia are hallmarks of the quality of their productions and the captivating nature of Iberian horses. Both productions continue to support the IALHA and reach out to our members.

This is simply a short list of some of the highlights and a brief expression of gratitude. There are hundreds of individuals who have helped, volunteered and sponsored to create a great year for all of our members. Let’s look for more of these creative, traditional, inclusive and expansive The steadfast devotion of ways to enjoy our horses in 2013. Thank you and Happy New Year! ◗ AM our members has been

generously evident in so many ways and venues in 2012.

All Good Things in Time

BY DOUG RAMSAY PHOTO COURTESY OF TERRI CAGE

The IALHA National Championship and Foundation Celebration was exuberantly attended at the Will Rogers Coliseum in Ft. Worth, Texas, in October 2012. The combined effort drew more than 150 horses from far and wide. Classes ran smoothly, and the atmosphere was invigorated by the increase in patrons and vendors during recent years. The show brought out the best in the attendees, organizers and volunteers who seemed to be living on adrenalin at times.

By the time I arrived on Friday morning, there seemed to be a sense of “all good things in time” pervading the show grounds and stabling. It was a welcomed tone to a colorful gathering of people and horses from all of the Americas. I met breed enthusiasts from Nova Scotia to Nuevo Laredo, from Oregon to Ohio, and from Brazil to British Columbia.

Each chance meeting validated the scope and breadth of the show’s draw. My experiences also included some leg work helping out in the Watt arena, back office and IALHA promotion booth. It felt good to chip in, and volunteering at this particular venue also can be recommended as good exercise.

As the show week came into Friday afternoon, an invitation to participate in the planned “carousel” was extended to riders and handlers for that evening. As is a custom in Spain and Portugal, riders Come to and handlers were offered a chance to creatively show the best of their horses in a Interagro live tribute. and Accordingly, a wide variety of participants entered the main arena Friday night immerse together, after having provided the ● Trail ride on 1200 announcer with a description of their lush tropical acres yourself in horses, their farms or themselves (or all of ● Take dressage everything lessons on those) to read.

NATIONAL SHOW

Mezzanine, competing with the brimming vendor space. The way the show committee members were able to organize a cheerful end to the day’s classes was impressive.

Show Saturday always sees our heaviest influx of visitors inquiring about Andalusians and Lusitanos. This year was no different as the crowds increased

The crowds increased throughout the day on Saturday, and it might be time to point out that many of the under-saddle classes had more than 12 entries. throughout the day, and it might be time to point out that many of the under-saddle classes had more than 12 entries. Our truly successful silent auction, composed of a vast array of goods and services, came to a close Saturday afternoon with genuine gratitude to all who donated and bid.

An industrious calm settled over the arena as the organizers and participants prepared themselves for the annual Saturday night Extravaganza. It was great to see multi-generational families of spectators in attendance for the Extravaganza. Riz Ilyas with Daniel Garcia oversaw the delivery of a truly dazzling series of performances, which included side-saddle precision riding; dare-devil riders; and beautiful exhibitions of baroque horsemanship, bullfighting responsiveness and classical dressage.

Other crowd-pleasing acts included a bridleless scuba diver ride, a romantic flamenco-caballero dance and a captivatingly graceful garocha exhibition. A long-lining stallion thrilled the crowd with airs above the ground, and a tiny pony executed a Spanish walk, practically stealing the show. Indeed, when all the participants of the Extravaganza returned to the arena for encore applause, it was frankly the end of a heartwarming week. â—— AM

Sol Dos Pinhais

Sol Dos Pinhais: “Sol” is a very special horse. He is brave and sweet, but has plenty of energy to get the job done. He has shown successfully thru Intermediare 2, and is ready to make his Grand Prix debut. Earn your USDF gold medal in style!

He has excellent piaffe and passage, elastic lateral work and expressive flying changes. Sol’s a gentleman and would be suitable for an adult amateur, Jr/YR or a professional interested in Grand Prix. Sol has no soundness or health issues. He travels well & is the same horse away from home as he is at the farm. He loves going out on hacks in the field and on the hills. He can be ridden in a snaffle or double bridle and is easy to sit.

Lovely, experienced 1999 FEI Lusitano gelding by Lambada offered FOR SALE Videos on www.DebbieHillDressage.com • Phone 256.656.9762 • Price $50,000 Issue 3 | 2012

PAALH NATIONAL SHO W

Canadian National Andalusian & Lusitano Show and Fiesta

BY CRYSTAL HEMSWORTH PHOTOS COURTESY OF MARY WOOD, TREASURED TIMES IMAGERY

The Pacific Association of the Andalusian & Lusitano Horse (PAALH) held its annual Canadian National Show & Fiesta July 19-21, 2012, at Chilliwack’s Heritage Park.

Once again, it was a successful event, with horses and exhibitors travelling from all around Western Canada and the Pacific Northwestern United States.

The show hosted National Championship classes in dressage, performance and in-hand for purebred and part-bred Andalusians and Lusitanos, as well as NonNational Baroque classes, for the first time open to all

breeds. This change in the program allowed more exhibitors to come out and enjoy what has often been called “one of the most fun and enjoyable horse shows around.”

Saturday featured the Fiesta of the Royal Horse which, as usual, played to a full house of more than 800 spectators. Organizers are especially proud of the Fiesta and the support it brings in from the community, as it offers the chance to promote the breed and share the beloved horses with a wide audience. The grand finale event is free to attend, with donations accepted gratefully at the door.

2012 IALHA

Year End

Awards

Professional Horsewoman of the Year: Horses have long been a big part of Jennifer Coyle Johnson’s life. As a young girl growing up in Cleveland, Ohio, Johnson competed in dressage, hunters, jumpers and eventing. Her first horse of her own, the Andalusian gelding DelMore’s Recluta III (aka Rex), was bred by her Aunt Carolyn – one of the first Andalusian breeders in the United States. Johnson was 6 years old when Rex came into her life as an awkward weanling, and she's been rolling with the breed ever since.

Johnson went to her first Andalusian show in 1988 at age 10 in Findlay, Ohio – where she later went to college – and continues to support breed shows almost 25 years later. After college, Johnson started JC Andalusians to follow her dream of being the second generation of Andalusian breeders in the United States. More than a decade later, the dream continues at her farm in Virginia. With the help of her husband, Minnesota native Ben Johnson, JC Andalusians stands multiple stallions and has several brood mares as the foundation of their farm.

Johnson is active in the driving community and, currently, competes her homebred mare, JC Viva, across the East Coast in combined driving events. She now is taking client horses into the show ring in harness, and continues to be one of the leading trainers of young horses both within and outside of the breed. Her passion is for the foals and young horses, and she is well known for her skills with them.

By competing in open dressage, DSHB, eventing, show jumping, hunter/jumper, and combined driving events, Johnson and JC Andalusians have brought the breed success and recognition in a variety of venues. She has also worked to promote Andalusians and Lusitanos at horse expos and trade shows. She has a goal of having JC Andalusian horses competing in all of the FEI disciplines.

In our breed organizations, Johnson has served on the IALHA Ethics committee, USEF Andalusian/Lusitano committee, and on the Board of Directors and show committee of the Eastern Region Andalusian Horse Club.

ANDALUSIAN

This year, the IALHA is proud to recognize Joey Perez of The Art of Riding training facility in Silver Springs, Fla., as Professional Horseman of the Year.

“I started training different breeds when I was 18 years old,” Perez says, “but my passion is and will always be Iberian horses. I was determined every year of my life to become a better trainer and one for Iberian breeds. One day, luck came my way as I was offered a trainer position at a P.R.E. breeding farm.”

There, Perez continued to hone his skills as he focused on learning the foundations of classical dressage with the help of master trainers. When the opportunities presented themselves, Perez also showed the magnificent horses he was working with in IALHA breed shows, where he was a successful competitor.

Now, Perez and his wife, Ruth, (2010 IALHA Professional Horsewoman of the Year) continue to live their dreams and follow their mutual passion for Iberian horses and traditional horsemanship at the Iberian training facility that they own together, The Art of Riding, where they specialize in dressage and doma vaquera.

“We work together, and it has been a dream come true for both of us,” Perez says. “I want to give a big thank you to all our past and present clients and the IALHA for this honor.”

Joey Perez, the honor is ours. Thank you for being such a great and long-term ambassador for the breed and the IALHA.

2012 IALHA Youth of the Year: The recipient of the 2012 IALHA Youth of the Year Award is Chelsea Reed of Groveland, Fla. “Thank you so much for naming me IALHA Youth of the Year,” Reed says. “I am very honored to receive this title.”

Reed literally has spent her life on horseback and comes by her riding ability honestly. Her father, Tom Reed, has been the head trainer for Medieval Times (currently located in Kissimmee, Fla.) for many years, and her mother, Megan, runs their training and breeding business, Lost Art Training Centre.

Reed has long been her parents’ No. 1 assistant. Under their tutelage (and later that of Olympian Lendon Gray), her riding skills have increased during the years. Now, at 16, she assists her parents in breaking the young horses at their farm in Groveland as well as assisting with the ongoing sessions for horses in training.

Reed and the Qualified P.R.E. Stallion, Kabileño XV, are "best friends" and have shown their way to several USDF All Breeds Awards, last year winning the USDF Region 3 Championship for Third Level, Test 3 (JR/YR).

Spending her summers as a working student for Hampton Green Farm in Fruitport, Mich., and for Lendon Gray, Reed has participated successfully in the prestigious D4K (Dressage for Kids) Horse Show in New York. In the fall of 2012, she and Kabileno lived and worked at the Hampton Green Farm facility in Wellington, Fla., studying with Lendon Gray and Robert Dover. She, of course, rode her favorite breed.

“I love the Andalusian, because they are very willing and hard-working horses that always want to please,” she says.

2012 Volunteer of the Year:

Sherry Mohr

From her early years as a Region 6 Director to her more recent roles as IALHA treasurer, PSL Commission president, chair of the Finance and Fundraising Committee, and member of the Elections, Stallion Breeding Service Auction, and Marketing committees, Sherry Mohr is one volunteer who throws her heart into all that she does. Those lucky enough to have met her in person are probably smiling about now, as they reflect on this dynamo and all she has brought to the IALHA. Horses were an important part of Mohr’s early life. “I was born and raised on a dairy farm in the Catskill Mountains of New York, and our only form of entertainment after work was completed was our ponies, and then horses,” Mohr says. Like so many, Mohr’s horse life was interrupted as she completed her formal education.

“When I went off to college I had to sell my best friend, a Spanish-type buckskin mare named Tesoro,” she says. “After a hiatus of 12 years, working as a nurse and starting a family, and then co-owner of a corporation, my search was on for the perfect partner. I’ve owned everything from mini stud colts to Tennessee Walkers, Morgans, Thoroughbreds, Friesians, and Quarter Horses, but they just didn’t fulfill my dream.

“Quite by accident, while searching eBay and winning a bid on a breeding to an Andalusian, my dreams renewed,” Mohr continues. “As luck would have it, I had my first Half-Andalusian foal. I absolutely fell in love with the breed, and was lucky enough to meet a lady from Scotland who needed a mare foaled out. This became my first purebred. From that moment, on, I have cherished the Andalusian and Lusitano, and I love researching the lineage and history. When you read, ‘What dreams are made of,’ well, they truly are.”

Mohr describes herself as a proud mom to three wonderful boys and married to a hard-working man, Alfred. “Alfred is an avid dreamer, learner and goal seeker!”

Those of us who know Mohr will not be surprised by her closing remarks: “I love sharing this beautiful breed and enjoy meeting new enthusiastic IALHA members. A big thank you to all who have enriched my life. Set your goals high, then set them even higher, and volunteer to help IALHA be the best it can be. I've never regretted getting involved and meeting so many wonderful people who cherish the Andalusian and Lusitano as I do.”

Sherry Mohr, from all of the IALHA members the world over whom you have helped along the way, a hearty thank you and congratulations on being named the 2012 IALHA Volunteer of the Year.

YEAR END AWARDS Amateur Horsewoman of the Year: If you’ve been on Facebook or at the IALHA Nationals in recent years, chances are you instantly recognize this year’s Amateur Horsewoman of the Year, Tiana Ng Hornickle. You might be surprised to hear that she was not born into the horse world, no matter how much she may look like she grew up on the back of a fantasy steed.

Ng Hornickel explains that she never dreamed of being involved with horses when she was a child, “Growing up in the city of Hong Kong, I would have never foreseen owning a horse in my future, let alone owing horses from such a magnificent breed such as the Andalusian,” she says. “The first Andalusian I had ever ridden was Eclipse, a stallion owned

by Carlos Macias.”

Ng Hornickel met Eclipse and his owner when she was a working student for Mario Contreras. She smiles at the memory, “You know how people describe a king’s noble steed that is ready for your command to charge into battle? That’s how I felt when I was aboard Eclipse. He has the grace of a dance partner and the heart of a faithful knight, and he taught me how a rider and a horse can melt into one so effortlessly. Needless to say, I was ‘hooked’ on the breed! I was fortunate enough to compete with Eclipse from time to time, so I got my first taste of success in the show ring and understood what the breed had to offer.”

In 2008, Ng Hornickel met the horse that she says changed her life. “I set my eyes on Xiomaro for the first time at the Midwest Horse Fair,” she says. “I still remember the exact moment I fell in love. This pure white, extremely tall stallion steps out of his stall, rebelliously flips around his long mane, commanding everyone’s attention. I remember I was thinking to myself, ‘I didn’t know unicorns existed!’ We were overjoyed when Xiomaro’s previous owner decided to sell him in 2009, and we were given the chance to own and love this magnificent stallion.”

Since then, Xiomaro has taken Ng Hornickel and all connected with her on an exciting journey in the horse world. Xiomaro performed in the World Equestrian Games opening ceremony in 2010. In 2011, he was USEF Andalusian Horse of the Year. Ng Hornickel and Xiomaro attend dressage shows, regional and national breed shows, charity events, parades and horse fairs. More recently, Ng Hornickel began running a small breeding operation at home.

“One thing I really enjoyed and never thought I would is raising foals,” says Ng Hornickel. “Andalusian foals are extremely agile and intelligent. I truly enjoy training and playing with them. Of course, all the winnings from shows they bring us are just pleasant surprise! There’s nothing better than showing off what you love and get rewarded by doing it. I’m very honored to have received this award, and I hope I can represent the breed in the best light for years to come.”

Amateur Horseman of the Year:

Henry Conroy

This year’s Amateur Horseman of the Year brings with him a distinctly international flair.

Henry Conroy and his wife, Sheree, own and run Glen Lomond Performance horses in Queensland, Australia. They own both an Andalusian stallion, Harmony Hills Ernesto (Ernie), and GL Conquistador, a buckskin Lusitano colt that they bred.

Conroy was first introduced to horses by Sheree in 2002, when he moved from Scotland to Australia. He began riding at age 40, and was immediately enraptured with the partnership that develops between man and horse. Originally, they bred Quarter Horses, but this changed in 2008, with the purchase of a 3-year-old Andalusian colt. He was shown by Conroy soon after and won the Led State Championship. He has continued as Supreme Led Stallion as well as the High Point Horse of the Show in the most recent AHAA Queensland Championships.

“When I first started handling an Andalusian, the change from other horses was dramatic,” says Conroy. “I was hooked! Even as a young stallion, Ernie showed the endearing traits of an Andalusian. He was intelligent, inquisitive, a show off and had a desire to please.”

In 2010, Conroy and his wife took the opportunity to travel from Australia to attend the IALHA National show, and were invited to take part in several events. “It was an amazing experience to participate at these shows, to meet so many wonderful, friendly people, and to see so many top-quality horses and riders,” Conroy says. “As part of our visit, we spent some time at the FHD Training Stables under the guidance of two amazing and accomplished horsewomen, Malen Dell and Francine Dismukes. Here, we had the unequaled pleasure of riding and working with superbly trained and gifted Andalusian horses.

“It was an undreamed of experience and absolute privilege to partner some stunning Andalusian horses at these events,” he continues. “I am humbled by my success and attribute it more to the wonderfully trained horses than to my own input.”

Conroy and his wife enjoyed their time at the 2010 Nationals so much that they returned to the United States in 2011, where their friendliness, commitment to the breed, and consistently solid handling made a large impression on all who met them. The IALHA would like to congratulate Henry Conroy on being named 2012 IALHA Amateur Horseman of the Year.

Breeder of the Year:

Gloriosa Farms

The IALHA is delighted to name Gloriosa Farms in Celina, Texas, the 2012 Breeder of the Year.

“It was a surprise to be named the 2012 Breeder of the Year, especially since Gloriosa Farms is a small breeding operation (producing only two to four foals per year),” says owner Dawn Griggs.

Gloriosa Farms began involvement with the Andalusian in 1991, with the purchase of two purebred yearling fillies.

The farm’s first foal crop arrived in 1994.

“Over the years, we have actively promoted IALHA and horses of both PRE and PSP bloodlines, and attended regional horse expos and dressage shows. Chasing points was never important to us, although some of our horses did become National Champions (halter or performance),” Griggs says. “We have been active supporters of the National Show since 1992 through our participation and more recently by our patronage.”

During the last decade, Gloriosa Farms furthered involvement in the association by holding elected positions as well as volunteering for committees.

Griggs discussed her farm’s breeding philosophy. “Throughout the years, we’ve continually strived to produce athletic, functional horses that still retain traditional form and temperament,” she says.

This approach appears to be working well. Four horses bred by Gloriosa Farms have garnered significant attention as exhibition performers: two with Medieval Times, another in Big Apple Circus (New York), with the most famous being Acierto G, officially recognized as an Ambassador for IALHA, whose accomplishments with owner/trainer Laura Amandis are too long to list.

“One of the most gratifying accomplishments has been seeing horses we’ve bred grow up to do well in USDF shows, especially in the competitive North Eastern region,” says Griggs, reflecting on the farm’s 20 years of breeding. “We are humbled to be chosen recipient of this award.”

YEAR END AWARDS Purebred Horse of the Year: Fantasia del C, IALHA 12456(S) bred by Barbara Currie of Oak Hill P.R.E., is owned and loved by Sarah C. Shechner of Origin P.R.E. Sire – Revoltoso XIV, P.R.E. imported from Spain and sire of conformation and movement champions. Dam – Gozosa II, imported from Spain, P.R.E. Celebration National Champion, Certified in the Book of Merits.

Fantasia is one of those rare beauties that simply takes your breath away. At 16.2 hands, she is a commanding figure in the show ring, but only when she begins to move does your heart falter a beat within your chest. At the end of a lead in the arena, she quite simply floats on air.

Her stunning conformation and pearly white coat certainly don’t hurt the overall picture.

Fantasia truly has been a force to be reckoned with in the show ring, amassing an incredible number of titles since her birth in 2004. As a yearling, she won her first gold medal and best movement title at the P.R.E. National Championships, but it wasn’t until age 4 (2008) that she truly came into her own as a mature mare and earned her first National Champion P.R.E. Mare title against much older and more experienced mares.

In 2011, with Howard Peet as her handler, Fantasia won the Champion Mare title at the IALHA Fiesta of the Spanish Horse in Burbank, Calif. At Celebration, the P.R.E. National Championships in Las Vegas, Fantasia took home the coveted National Champion Mare title for the second time and best movement in her class under the Spanish judges. Fantasia also won a special award for having the highest morphology score of any horse at the show. Additionally, Fantasia was presented to three Cria Caballar judges in hand and under saddle, and earned the status of “Qualified” under the stringent guidelines of the P.R.E. Mundial Registry.

At the 2011 IALHA Nationals, Fantasia was named Reserve National Champion Andalusian Dressage Sport Horse Breeding Mare and Reserve National Champion Andalusian in Dressage at Training Level. In the Spanish Specialty division under a Spanish judge, Fantasia won her class and best movement, earning the highest morphology score among all horses entered in the Specialty division.

Fantasia narrowly missed the IALHA Champion Sr. Mare title under the American judges, coming home with the Reserve Champion IALHA Sr. Mare title instead. Perhaps she was simply a bit too tired to take home the top award that day, but, as a result of competing in multiple categories, Fantasia took home the Reserve National Champion of Versatility Award.

The final day of showing in Texas was a separate ANCCE-sanctioned morphology show, where Fantasia was, again, best in her class for movement and morphology. Fantasia went on to win the Champion Mare title and had the highest morphology score. Under the Spanish judges in 2011, Fantasia earned the honor of having the highest morphology score every time she was shown.

Her meteoric rise in the show ring and her high standing in the Book of Merits certainly are imposing. But what makes Fantasia truly special is her character. Fantasia loves her people, and is equally excited to snuggle up to new friends. She loves to go for walks around the barn aisles, and stop and meet new people. She’s great on the trails, and never shies away from a new adventure. She also is an incredible ambassador for the Andalusian and P.R.E. and always helps to convert new breed enthusiasts wherever she goes.

Fantasia del C

Half-Andalusian Horse of the Year: This year, Karat CF has been recognized as the 2012 Half-Andalusian of the Year. Karat CF is a 16.0-hand, 5-year-old Andalusian/KWPN cross gelding by P.R.E. stallion LePanto I (Genil) out of a KWPN Keur Preferent mare, Kourante (Olympic Ferro). Karat CF was bred by CF Andalusians, Shawna Camphaug and Shannon Sluser in Canada.

Karat CF holds the incredible distinction of having been invited to the Markel/USEF National Young Horse Championships to compete as one of 15 5-year-old dressage horses from across the United States. The Markel/USEF Young Horse Dressage Program for 4-, 5-, and 6-year-old horses promotes the importance of selective breeding and correct training of horses in the United States, and encourages participation of breeders, riders and trainers of young horses in dressage competition.

The purposes of this program are to encourage the properly structured development of young dressage prospects through the training scale, to identify and recognize outstanding talent and the training of international-caliber horses, and to prepare these horses for future careers at the FEI level and participation on U.S. High Performance teams.

Only 15 horses are invited nationally in each age group, and Karat CF, ridden and trained by Petra Warlimont of Longmont, Colo., and owned by Dianne Stanley of Billings, Mont., competed in August at Lamplight Equestrian Center in Wayne, Ill. During the 2012 show season, Karat CF competed at USEF Licensed Competitions at First Level in the Open Dressage Division in the Denver area, earning the highest dressage score in every class in which he competed. He qualified for the USDF Regional Championships in his first two dressage tests and was the High Point Lower Level Dressage Horse at Autumn Hill Dressage I, Autumn Hill Dressage III, Dressage at the Peak, Rocky Mountain Dressage I and Rocky Mountain Dressage II. He has been highly trainable, consistently sound, willing and happy, and is easy for an adult amateur to ride.

Look for this fine, young Half-Andalusian to continue to serve as a wonderful ambassador for the breed for years to come!

Tributes Indiano XVIII

By Lanys Kaye-Eddie Very sadly, this year a magnificent Spanish horse, INDIANO XVIII, died at the age of 27 after a productive life. He was bred by don Joaquin Conesa, whose farm is Nobleza del Guadiana. Don Joaquin showed this horse with great success in Spain, winning morphological prizes as well as functionality.

INDIANO won six gold medals as champion of the breed and, on two occasions, was Supreme Champion of Functionality. At one point, more than 60 percent of imported mare bands from this extraordinary farm were daughters of this iconic stallion. He represented Romero Benitez blood and, through that, heavily represented “Bocado” blood, which is probably why he bred so true.

When we heard he was in Mexico on the farm of Federico Jimenez Sainz, a number of friends travelled there to see him in April 1994. Besides his extraordinary physical beauty and proud bearing, we were treated to seeing him move in the arena and were thrilled with the sight.

However, we asked Vaughn Smith to have fun with the stallion outside the arena in the fields and, suddenly, the movement was so extraordinary that none of us could really believe it. This horse had an elasticity of the shoulder, and reach in the rear was almost unbelievable. We still have the tape of those incredibly magic moments. His fire resulted in the nickname “The Lion of Spain.”

Eventually, we managed to put together a syndicate to acquire this stallion, and he arrived in our country in 1997. After a heavy breeding schedule, it was decided that only the syndicate owners would have access to him for their mares, in order not to have too great an effect from one single stallion on the stock in the United States. Records show 183 offspring but there were many more that may not have been registered. This stallion has proved to be a particularly valuable brood mare sire. He spent time at the facilities of each of the syndicate owners throughout the country and, in his later years, lived at Blue Moon Ranch in Gavilon Hills, Calif., where he was the happiest and the most settled.

INDIANO’s passing is a great loss for the P.R.E. in the United States, but his genetic legacy will be found for many generations in some of the most wonderful horses in this country. We wish him green pastures and peace, and we were honored to have him in our lives.

Lanys Kaye-Eddie, Syndicate Manager Barbara Currie Gleen and Sharon Hittner Gina Rae Hogan Vaughn Smith Ellen and John Mooney

Guarapo

By Lanys Kaye-Eddie with Doug Ramsay During a visit to the farm of Federico Jimenez Sainz, we purchased this 6-month-old colt, GUARAPO, born the son of GENIL, a legendary beauty and champion of Spain, and his dam, a wonderful black mare named INTRUSA II, from the farm of Maria Fernanda de la Escalera. I was particularly thrilled that Federico was prepared to sell him to us, as he was one of only two black offspring of GENIL. Of all the horses we have been around, GUARAPO was the most sensitive, the most gentle and the most anxious to please. He was shown a number of times but was a bit intimidated by the atmosphere of a show. He was trained and shown

by Vaughn Smith. He covered many mares in California and produced some lovely foals, many of whom exhibited that extraordinary long and shapely neck he inherited from his sire.

GUARAPO was purchased by Kim Elliott, after which he travelled to South Carolina. After he had been gone for year or more, I visited him in his stable at one of the shows in Texas, thinking he would remember our wonderful relationship. But even more wonderful was the fact that he was looking over my shoulder for Kim, with whom he now had a great relationship. Our condolences go out to Kim, Anne and Derrick Peak, and trainer Sharon Knight.
