Tsnottie's Latest Pictures

Sunday, October 25. 2009, about 10 AM. It was a VERY cool, crisp morning,  and Tsnottie was hot to trot in the beginning.  She is a golden chestnut with lots of roaning. She seems to be quiet and sensible overall. During the course of this two-hour ride at the Cleveland Polo Fields, she crossed water joyfully four times.  She has become a worthy trail horse. She is about 14.2 with lots of heart .

Sunday, October 25, 2009.  Tom rides Tsnottie here. Note the heavy jacket to prove that  it was a brisk morning.  She rides with a full cheek snaffle. As you can see, Tsnottie has retained her refined elegance, evident during her first days of existence.

July 15, 2006. Aren't you finished with this photo op yet? It's hot out here, y'know.  I'm tired of sticking my neck out so you guys can get bragging rights!

July 15, 2006. Can I blow this forelock out of my eyes? It feels like a fly in my eye! Can you see my exquisite ears and gorgeous legs?

Tsnottie's dam is a granddaughter of Top Ten Nationals Stallion of 1989, Supreme Tsultan (Ivanhoe Tsultan x Aeli Kun x Elkan). Ivanhoe Tsultan (Ivanhoe Tsatan  out of a Hillcrest mare) was a legend until his death a few years ago, having produced Nationals champions like Rohara Tsultress and  Supreme Tsovereign. Ivanhoe Tsultan's death ,as well as the early passing of Supreme Tsultan from colic with only a small number of foals on the ground, demonstrates that it is important for successful horses to have progeny to carry on accomplishments.

Come back often to enjoy Tsnottie's progress. We will be adding pictures and comments!

UPDATE! July 30, 2006

The first show finally arrived Sunday morning, July 30. Nine-year-old
Lauren Martin of Auburn Township, Ohio, had the responsibility of
exhibiting Tsnottie to the crowd for the very first time at the Champagne Classic Open Horse Show, organized by the North Eastern Ohio Arabian Horse Association and held at Blue Lakes Farm in Newbury, Ohio. Tsnottie's class was the second one on the
show bill so Lauren did not have the opportunity to observe too many halter entries before making her own appearance. Could Tsnottie and Lauren trot? You bet they could, and Lauren got Tsnottie's exquisite ears to point forward and her face to be horizontal to the ground. Since the class was open to all ages of Registered Half Arabians, Tsnotte was the youngest horse, and Lauren was the youngest exhibitor. Happily, they came away with fourth place and the enthusiasm of the judge, Gary Goll, of Bryan,
Ohio, who recognizes the importance of letting young people
learn about the art of showing horses!

GREAT JOB, LAUREN!  GREAT JOB, TSNOTTIE!

Baby Pictures This is the very first photo of Tsnottie. Isn't she a beauty? Within 15 minutes of this photo, she was on her feet and within 30 minutes more she had unlocked the secret hiding place of the milk bar. She is one of the quickest foals we have delivered. We are absolutely thrilled with her beauty and elegance, hence her well-chosen name. The bottom two pictures show Tsnottie at 12 days old. We hope you enjoy her  beautiful conformation, especially the wonderful hock that Royal Pride Rythm passes on to all his progeny.
