Dick, and Ari are a bonded team!  They are amazing together - Dick has only ridden four years now and most of his riding has been  on Ari.  The attached picture is their award for Ari being top NATRC Region IV Novice/CP Arabian for 2009.  I am very proud of Ari and Dick and knew you would want to see the boys together.

2009 AHA National CTR

Chris Kimery was the Junior CTR Champion at the US Nationals CTR Ride on her half arabian. 

She was riding against seniors as there was not a separate junior division.  She was 4th.  They placed top ten to seven places, so she was also in top ten and then was high point junior.  So she wasn't "just" the junior champion.  She was riding BHR Hosans Showdown 1/2 Arabian.

 

2009 AHA National Endurance ride

We at Kings' Court Arabians (David and Kirsten Krysler) are so proud of our lovely girl, KC Tirzah El Jamaal. In 2009, out of four class "A" shows, she took a reserve and three show championships in mares. She then went onto get two TOP 5's at Region 9--one in three old and over purebred mares and the other in three year old and over AOTH! She is now qualified for the 2009 Nationals in junior mare, AOTH, and the three year old futurity.

            Springtime at Vallejo III brings new foals, breeding and this year the Vallejo III Open House. Not only did the Open House showcase the incredible horses here at Vallejo, but also we were happy to welcome the Arabian Horse Association Registration Commission Spring Forum as well as the Arabian Horse Association’s President Lance Walters. Attendees came from Arkansas, Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Kansas, New York, Oklahoma and Virginia to learn from and enjoy the friendship and comraderie of fellow breeders.

            Bob Hart began the day with a clinic on a stress-free transition of a two year old from the pasture to the show barn. The crowd provided knowledgeable and thoughtful questions throughout the demonstration. The filly, Vallejo BejeweledMoon (Rohara Moonstorm x Vallejo Buckle Up) was confused by the change in environment at the beginning of the clinic. However, with her attentive and willing attitude she gave Bob the opportunity to demonstrate his “hooking up” technique exhibiting a non-fearful adjustment.

            After lunch, Arabian Horse Association President Lance Walters reviewed his agenda for the past few months to the crowd. He stressed his attention to the Arabian Horse Association’s budget, the World Horse Organization accepting the Arabian Horse Association, the Sweepstakes program, Data Source, and moving forward in today’s market with success.

            The Arabian Horse Association Registration Commission: Cynthia Richardson, Janice Birk, Debbie Fuentes, Bruce Clark, Patricia Hendershot, Bruce Johnson, Lollie Ames and Dennie Mack then conducted their segment of the program. They began with the Arabian Horse Association Registrar Debbie Fuentes, who brought the crowd up to speed with information regarding breeding and transfers relating to National and International applications. She announced that a registration amnesty for unregistered Arabians and Half-Arabians was to begin in the near future. As a result of the World Arabian Horse Organization accepting the Arabian Horse Association the new process for International registrations was also explained. The crowd was very savvy and asked many pointed questions of all the Arabian Horse Association representatives.

            The day concluded with an outside showing of some of the exceptional show horses here at Vallejo III. The three breeding stallion of Vallejo III, Rohara Moonstorm, Link to Fame, and The Renaissance, rounded up the activities in a beautiful presentation.

            Everyone who attended enjoyed a fun and informative day. We at Vallejo III were honored to bring together so many horse enthusiasts with the knowledgeable Arabian Horse Association representatives.

 

CONGRATULATIONS!

Just wanted to alert you that Rowdie alias ColorMe Awesome, (Sammie's full yearling brother) received TOP FIVE at Region VIII in Denver, CO 2007 with really strong competition (that gives us four TOP Fives in four years, three boys/one girl namely Barb McCalip's Sooner), with two thirds, and one Res CH. Not too bad and they are all related, three of them full siblings).

     We then took six pintos to Pinto World 2007 (one day before the June floods), and had our best showing yet. Robert showed Colorme Toocool to his first World Champion Saddle Type award, along with winning his third Saddle Type Futurity (2003, 2006, 2007). Scooter had four get showing in same show, all won either World Championships or Reserve Championships. Stella, Caroline Lackey's yearling pinto filly, who rec'd a TOP FIVE in her Region VIII Breeders Sweepstakes class, also won RESERVE Champion 2 yrs and under class at Pinto World 2007 as well as RES CH in her Pinto Futurity.

The three Scooter boys, two yearlings and Sam the two year old, did the following: Moose, who is Ύ ASB , Ό Arabian, won the World Champion Pleasure Type 2 yrs and under class, with Rowdie (ColorMe Awesome) coming in as Reserve Champion. Both of them beat Sammie in the 2 yrs and under class!!!!! They rec'd the same awards in the Futurity class. Sammie and I managed to pull off our first Reserve World CHampionship in the ATH class this year (out of eight amateurs) open to all ages of geldings. We were thrilled to receive our first Pinto World buckle.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Donna Copeland sent the following:  I am passing on the news from the first Pinto Congress held in Tulsa ever, Nov 8-12, 2006. Bonnie Macom was behind me in supporting this great effort, although it turned out a number of saddle/pleasure types we normally see at Pinto World did not attend. Regardless we have many wonderful memories of this first event.  

Scooter was named the Senior Saddle Type/Pleasure Type Champion, his weanling son, "Moose", a 3/4 ASB, was named the Junior Saddle Type/Pleasure Type Champion and won the 2006 Weanling Intl Futurity Championship. "Rowdie" was Reserve in this futurity and Talitha's "Lucky" was third.  Rowdie won the 2006 Breeders Cup Futurity (Saddle/Pleasure Type weanlings) and my precious Sammie, the yearling, won both the Open class and the 2006 Yearling Intl Futurity. He was named the 2006 Champion Saddle/Pleasure Type Gelding. I can't tell you how excited I am about Sam's future in the sport horse arena.  It was tremendous to support this first time show with three Scooter boys and their father all present.

Horsing around By SHAUN EPPERSON Tulsa World Staff Writer 11/15/2006


      Bixby woman's Arabian wins national contest.   A Bixby woman who won top honors with her Arabian horse at a national competition last month in Kentucky, said the award was the culmination of a dream she has been working toward for years.

      Margaret Lucas' 12-year-old Arabian, Authentikhemo, took the honor of national champion in the Purebred Adult Amateur Owner to Ride Trail category at the 40th U.S. National Arabian and Half-Arabian Championship Horse Show, held in Louisville Oct. 12 through 21.  The same horse also was named a national top 10 finisher in another category at the event, which drew more than 2,000 horses from all over North America.

      Lucas, who has bred, raised and trained other award-winning horses at her family's Bixby ranch, said she's always strived toward a national championship, though she's accumulated numerous awards with the championship horse and other horses, including 33 national top 10 wins in various divisions of competition.  "This is what I was looking for," she said.  "This is what I've strived for for years, and I have missed it many times."

     The honor of raising a national champion doesn't come easily, requiring much time and effort to raise and train an award-winner, she said.  And, like the trainer, the horse has to have a winning mindset, she said.  "Some horses have the natural ability to do it," Lucas said, noting that "Others can be enhanced, and others just don't want to do it." On the national level, the competition is especially grueling for both horse and rider, who have to work as a team, Lucas said.  "When you go to nationals, you'd better be prepared," she said. "You have to know your horse."

     Margaret Lucas isn't the only member of her family with experience in competitions, her husband, son and daughter all have been involved in one way or another, she said.  Lucas said her parents also were involved with raising horses and that she was thinking of her father, who died in September, when she was competing in Kentucky.  "Actually, I cried (when the winners were announced)," she said. "I was giving it everything I could for my dad."

     Lucas' daughter, Andrea, who has won awards in competition, said she was excited to see her mother's hard work come to fruition.   "I was there video taping her," she said of the national competition. "I was just ecstatic for her."

This was only Khid's  2nd  CTR and he is just starting his career at 10 years old.  We are extremely proud of these 2 boys doing so well in tough terrain and humid conditions.  They placed 3rd and 4th in the NATRC open division of the ride where trail ability obstacles are also observed with only ½ a point separating them.
