LIL CASPER PRESENTS HIS SIRE, BRONZED TO BEAT |
|
|
|
|
Lil Casper, our first APHA foal for 2005, at 3 days old. His sire, Bronzed To Beat, was dubbed Casper, the friendly ghost, when he was this age. He wanted to be friendly and come to be petted, but he was also shy because his dam told him not to trust humans. He also had the same color all over,including his mane and tail. He was almost white, what I called "barely beige". The pale little colt would stand behind his dam and peek out, then quietly come to be petted. Bronzed To Beat's golden buckskin color did show up until he shed out as a yearling. Lil Casper acts like his dad, thus the nick name. Lil Casper is a buckskin tovero, which was hard to determine until he got older, because he is so white with few spots. Only a golden medicine hat, flank and belly spots, and black polkadots on his pasterns. He was bred by Sapphire Stables of Iowa, owners Ruth and Alan Gilbert. His new owners are Debbie and Horace Page of Cleveland Texas. Lil Casper's APHA registered name is Ghostly Hint of Bronz, Watch for him at the paint shows in Texas. He is turning out to be quite the boy; beauty, size,muscle and wonderful disposition. He also has both the color genes to produce both tobianos and overos with the golden buckskin or palomino color, even from solid mares.

PEDIGREE

FOUNDATION PEDIGREE - MODERN LOOKS |
|
|
|
| A CHAMPION FROM ANY ANGLE |
Pedigree -- The foundation of a sire
Bronzed To Beat has a pedigree to build on, for halter or performance. His pedigree is filled with "brand named" horses, who are champions and champion producers. Horses who competed and were successful in winning in most every event. Bronzed To Beat was bred to be a versatile performer. A freak accident occurred as a yearling, in which his leg was entrapped, thereby sustaining an injury which delayed the start of his halter career and ruined his chances of a performance career. He was broke to ride and showed promise. His old injury, would not allow him to withstand the rigors of training required for competition. Even though he was not able to be shown under saddle, the genes are still there. One need not go back three or four generations to find a horse which is well known in Bronze's pedigree. His sire was the great "Color Me Skip" an AQHA Champion, Superior Halter/Pleasure, Reserve World Champion Halter Stallion, and All Time Leading Sire of Halter Horses. Besides having over 50 points each in halter and western pleasure, Color Me Skip had points in barrels and poles. He received all of his performance points in just two months of showing. Color Me Skip is unique as a sire, because as well as siring World Champion halter horses, he produced AQHA Champions and World Champion performance horses. Bronzed To Beat's dam, "Ribbons Heart Beat" produced pleasure futurity winners, halter point earners and halter ROM. Bronze's full brother, Color To Beat, shown in four AQHA western pleasure futurities had placings of one win, two seconds and a third. Ribbons Heart Beat started her broodmare career at an early age, so was never shown. She was a very good horse to ride and was used to gather and sort cows. She was a powerful and athletic horse. Her sire was "Ribbon Page" AQHA Champion and AQHA Champion sire. Both of Ribbon Page's sire and dam had show and produce records. His sire, Jay Page was an AQHA Champion and sire of same. His dam, Dear's Lady Dell, had points in both halter and performance. She produced AQHA Champions and ROM's. She was sired by the great legend, Poco Dell, AQHA Champion and Leading Sire of AQHA Champions. Her dam, Dear's Lady was a halter and performance point earner, and the dam of multiple AQHA Champions and ROM's. The dam of Ribbons Heart Beat was sired by Hard To Beat who was an AQHA Champion and an Honor Roll Halter Stallion. His sire was another legend, Otoe, AAA AQHA Champion and Leading Sire of AQHA Champions. The pedigree continues with generations of Leading Sires and show horses that excelled in halter and multiple performance events to gain the ever respected title of AQHA Champion. |

THE BRONZED PATRIOT (Bruiser) |
|
|
|
|
Bruiser is pictured, ready to go to the showring at the Memorial Day Circuit, at 15 months of age (5/29/06). He already stands 15-2 H tall and has his daddy's gorgeous metallic golden buckskin color and pretty face with big expressive brown eyes. He is gentle, intelligent, and loving. His dam is an ROM producing grulla mare, with Impressive Dandy and Poco Caz breeding. Bruiser is an excellent prospect for future super sire or outstanding show gelding. His only time shown, he was the winner of the OSBA Futurity. He has unlimited possibilities for showing, both in halter and performance. A candidate for Honor Roll or World titles.
**May 29,2006 Bruiser is shown at his first IBHA class, at which he is point eligible, at the Ohio State Buckskin Association's Memorial Day Circuit. He showed well and acted quite the gentleman that he is. He wins the yearling stallion class of 5 and goes Grand Champion Stallion under 3 judges. He is a multiple halter point earner on his first outing and Circuit Champion Stallion. ***September 10,2006. Bruiser goes to show at the OSBA Fall Show and Futurity. He wins the yearling futurity and goes Grand Champion Stallion under 3 of the 4 judges and Reserve Grand under the 4th. By doing so, he is the Circuit Champion Stallion. On a dare, he was entered in the yearling lounge line class at the last moment, all though he has not been in training for that event. He did a good controlled, free moving pattern but he did not stay in a lope for a complete round, as he is not used to loping when he is lounged at home. He still placed 5th. Being the laid back fellow that he is, he took a nap at ringside while waiting for his competitors to complete their longe line patterns. Unlike some other young stallions, no drugs or heavy restraints are required to keep him controlled. He naturally takes life as it comes and relaxs. Again we hear people in disbelief that he is only 1 1/2 years old. Somthing about born in August and hidden until January. Really, he was born on SuperBowl Sunday. With his owner being a Patriots fan, thus he got his name ****September 24. It is Bruiser's last show for the season. He has suddenly shot up again in the rear. He has lost no weight but appears thinner than he did 2 weeks ago because he is growing again. He receives 1 Grand and 3 Reserve Grands. He finishes the show season with 8 halter points, and with second place in the nation on the IBHA Honor Roll for yearling stallions. ****March 2007. Bruiser has a new owner, Roberto Laborion of Arizona and Mexico. Bruiser is to be the new herd sire for his ranch in Mexico. He will not begin his breeding career for another two years. He will be broke to ride and ridden first. I will miss seeing this good colt, who so resembles his Dad. I wish for Roberto that all his dreams will come true for this colt with God's blessings. |
BC BRONZED (Tucker) - April 21, 2004 buckskin colt |
|
|
|
|
Tucker has just began his show career. He placed well at both the Indiana Quarter Horse and the Mid-American Buckskin Futurities, inspite of the fact that he was one of the youngest in his class. He is a beautiful buttermilk buckskin color now, but so was his Dad at this age, so he may become more golden with age. He is pretty now and he is going to be gorgeous. We expect great things from him in the future. He has a head and neck that is second to none. He is well muscled, short backed and has a big hip that ties down low. He is going to have the width and height of his sire. Besides his physical attributes, he has a sweet, quiet disposition. Tucker has "The Look Of Eagles". Tucker is HYPP N/N. |
