RE: [RC] [RC-Digest] Vol: 03.5665 - kathy . mayedaIt was only a generation or two back were just good ol' horses in my horse's pedigrees. Beau's dam was short, stocky, big jowled, with a sway back in her 20's, but she was the kindest, most smooth trottingest horse I ever rode. Mostly American bred "Polish". She was bred to Bey Oro and produced a filly, Proclivity, that was shown only a few times locally and was snatched up and imported to Brazil for big $$$ when the market was still hot.
Another foundation mare of the herd was Crabbet. Wildrose Mariah. Short, grey, pretty, with the typical Crabbet apple butt. All three of my horses have Wildrose Mariah in their pedigree. Beau and Beamer are grandget of her's through their sire Joust. Drako get's his through Joust's half-sister who was bred to Bey Shah to produce Drako's sire.
Still cursing Bey Shah and all his get. They seduce you by being the sweetest pocket ponies, and breathe fire in the show ring looking gorgeous, then they run right over you as if you aren't there! Yeah, I know there are a lot of Bey Shah's out there with good, stable personalities - one of them is my mare's grandson who is now owned by Maryben's junior, Ildi.
