Arabian Horses
Arabian horses have been my favored breed my entire life. Here on this page you can see the quality mares that live with us at the ranch. I do my best to select Arabians that are old style and more low key. These mares all have great conformation, beauty, intelligence and most have an endurance background or pedigree. Some even carry a gaited trait we call an amble ! We now stand 2 Arabian Stallions.

And Midnight Attraction, below.
Midnight Attraction (Ahtractiv X Mi Gay Channel by Gayronek)
Arabian stallion 14.3 1/2 hands. Barefoot, Stick and level. Offering genetic diversity. Only SCID clear mares accepted. He is a carrier. $400 fee for non-Arab $550 for purebred.
Rarely will you meet a Arab so elegant. He has a baroque air about him. Midnight has a superb disposition. Unlike many Arabs who flinch at various stimuli or have strange quirks, Midnight could be slapped, bumped, have his ears played with, fly sprayed without a flinch on first introduction in every area of his body and accepted deworming and shots no fuss. This is exceptional because he was not handled except for breeding over his 12 year lifetime.
We have now saddled, ground drove, lunged and put a rider on him on the lead. I have sat on him bareback. We are still working on his training. He has accepted everything as if it had been done before. He is very much a stud at the same time and so that has been his only challenge, learning when and where this behavior was acceptable. He had a couple of bad habits from being stalled constantly in his past life. But these also are in good remission as he learns a new mindset and way of life. His sire was a tall, successful show horse and also he is a maternal half brother to another stallion (Black Destiny) who was shown successfully. I would need to get research done to find out exactly what all these horses won, but I know that they were shown and did win. Midnight has good flat bone and clean joints. Good movement. Flat dished profile. In many ways he is an ideal Arab to me.
Rafikah Rose
(HH Fortune Hunter × DK Peach Brandy)
Rose is a 14.3 hand purebred Arabian mare. Proven in LD and 50 mile endurance rides an possesses a natural ambling gait. She is my daughter’s favorite riding horse. Big solid hooves and legs. Rose is sturdy and stylish! Predominantly Old Egyptian, some Crabbet (Al Marah) and a touch of Polish bloodlines. Her beauty and quality are hard to match. She has foaled one purebred Arabian. Foaled a colorful bay Appaloosa filly from our 100% foundation Appaloosa stallion.
Rose has not been for sale for 2 years. I simply failed to update this website. She is far too special to my youngest daughter who rides her on a regular basis. She is now bred to our black Arabian stallion, Midnight Attraction. This foal is going to be very special and will probably be a keeper since Rose has only one purebred gelded son.

Sudden Romance
(Aur Aquavit X Wartime Romance)
CMK, chestnut roan Arabian mare. 14.2 hh. Highly intelligent, personable and athletic. Sometimes reactionary but a horse that can be reasoned with very well. In some ways she is fearless.
In 2017 I traveled with my family to CA in order to meet Aur Aquavit and look for a daughter of his to purchase. I saw Sudden Romance (AKA Lacy) at Diablo Vista Arabians. She was an Aquavit daughter belonging to Janice Siders who was not interested in selling her at the time. A year later Janice gave me first opportunity to buy her. Before leaving CA I sent her to be bred to another favorite stallion, SB Criminal Justice (aka CJ) owned by Angela Lewis. Then Lacy made the long journey home to TN. In 2020 she foaled a beautiful bay filly by CJ. http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/sudden+romance2 http://diablovista.homestead.com/SUDDENROMANCE.html
