My Precious Dream
1989 Chestnut Saddlebred Mare. This was my first Saddlebred and I couldn't be happier. I bought her when she was 10, her life had been spent in a pasture just hanging out. I was impressed by her size and overall body. She has a beautiful head, although long, it's very pleasant. A maiden mare that wasn't broke to ride. She has produced five foals for Gem Star Arabians, all of which are Jameel babies. Her first Foal, On A Good Night gsa, was the 2000 Region 18 Champion HA Filly, her first time out. Dreams second foal, UpTown Girl gsa, was second place in her large and very tough futurity class. Only four weeks after impaling herself on a board and requiring three layers of stitches. She never took a lame step and the day of futurity you couldn't even see a mark. She showed incredible with the help of John Lambert on the end of her line. She was 2001 Region three Reserve Champion with her new owners Russ Batchlerder and Jayne Scoggins of Romana California. Unfortunatly she fell in December of 2001 and fractored her shoulder in multiple places and had to be put down. Dreams third foal, Leave Me Breathless gsa, showed at the 2002 Region 13 colt class and placed Top Five with John Lambert. He also showed at District I and was Top Five in both the Open with John and AOTH with myself. He then showed at Region 18 where he again was Top Five in an extremely tough class with Rob Langlois. Dreams fourth filly, Alrighty Then gsa, was just named Region 13 Reserve Champion with John Lambert. You might see her at US Nationals this fall. An interesting story about Dream. Her original owner and breeder, woke one morning with the vision of a foal she had dreamed about all night. This foal was beautiful with it's four white feet, star, stripe and snip. Wouldn't you know eary that morning one of her mares foaled this beautiful filly she had dreamed about. That's how the name My Precious Dream came about. They had big plans for Dream and for one reasone or another were unable to do much with Dream. Being the trainers horse, she was put on the back burner. Her owner, Catherine, died in 1997 and her husband was forced to downsize. That's where I came into the picture. Even though Catherine didn't get to full fill her dream with Dream. Dream is helping to full fill mine, maybe with Catherine helping out upstairs. The first of my dreams was full filled in 2000 when Dreams first daughter, On A Good Night gsa, went regional Champion. Dream produced a bay colt by Shah Jameel for a 2003. It was by chance I got her in foal, as she was only covered once before we lost Jameel. So this will be our most special foal, being Jameels very last! This very special colt is named Ever After gsa. She went on to produce a wonderful Half Arabian Filly for Mirage Arabians who has started her performace carreer and is looking like an English pleasure/park prospect.
