Show Career to Start in 2009!          In foal to AHR Gold Classified 'Alfa of Genesis' for a 2009 foal

“Ruby”, boasts a lineage of National Champions. She is sired by the two-time National Champion, Aristique TOF. Aristique is sired by the gold classified and former National Champion, Aristocrat TOF. On the other side of her pedigree, Ruby’s dam is sired by Austrian import and former National Champion, Nobleman TOF. Ruby’s dam has consistently produced offspring with elegance, type, refinement, and excellent conformation that have all been at the top of their age-groups at many sales. Ruby is currently being trained and worked with extensively under saddle by part-owner and junior youth handler and AHR youth member, Molly Buis. We had anticipated that this duo would be an integral part of our 2008 show string. However, Ruby suffered a traumatic hoof injury that forced her to be scratched from all of her competitions for the entirety of the 2008 season. Hence, she will make her debut at haflinger breed shows, 4-H shows and varsity high school equestrian team shows next summer as an ambassador for the modern performance haflinger. We anticipate Ruby’s official AHR inspection in the summer of 2009. The next few years are full of promise for Ruby. She has been bred for a 2009 foal to our award winning, AHR Gold Classified, imported stallion, ‘Alfa of Genesis’, the 2007 AHR National Champion stallion, the 2-year old champion of both the 2007 GLHA and AHR futurities, and the 2008 AHR 3-year-old Futurity Champion!
