I am one of those breeders who finally had to give it up after a little
more than twenty years, and all I wanted was to break even!  I found the
'show people' wanted brand names, and the distance rider went to the stock
yards.  Really miss those babies too.
For all you bargain hunters - I have an 8 yr. old gelding that someone
might enjoy  polishing into a diamond.  All he needs is time and patience
and a smart rider.  All I want is enough to cover his ninety days training
bill. (Dressage, jumping and trail riding). He's a non-registered
pure-bred, by a well known Arab racehorse out of a full sister to a stakes
winning mare.  Her sire is a Region 14 & 13 CTR Champion and won numerous
CTRs as well and has sired some nice runners, both on the track and on the
trail.  He's a little over 15 H, maybe 15.1.  Why selling?  I prefer CTRs
and I think he'd do much better in endurance.  To be truthfull I just don't
feel comfortable on him.  Maybe I'm just too darn old.  Location KY
