Welcome... and thank you...

...for dropping by our website.  If you love beautiful horses, we're sure you'll find you've come to the right place. We raise Arabian horses, both purebred and partbred, and love to share our photos and our stories of these magnificent creatures - so stay awhile and enjoy....

Just follow links throughout or on the sidebar to learn about our small but quality Arabian Horse breeding programme that began in the mid 1970's. We've been breeding Arabians that win at both halter and performance at local, Regional and National levels, horses that are beautiful, athletic and exceptionally people oriented.


Now, let us tell you about some of our favourite pages...


New Foals  Many people really enjoy seeing the photos of our new babies and we're tickled to show them off.  You will see these charming youngsters by going to our New Foals   page.  You will be able to see our 2009 babies (as well as for prior years) and, for 2010,  the anticipated dates of arrival and news on the foals as they arrive.

Pictured here is MDA Kaladdinn's 2008 colt, "karter" (more at our New Foals  page).

See video of Front Row Center RF ("Karter")....


Show Results  We are very proud of the show records of the Rideaufield bred and sired horses.  Although we are a small breeding farm,  our horses are competitive across North America.  Our Earl Grey++ and Xceptshahn babies are coming on strong. They are seen consistently winning in the show rings across North America and at both the U.S. and Canadian Nationals.   To see more about these Champion Arabian horses, go to our Show Results page....

Stallions

Pomerol - the beautiful *Padron son out of the Straight Russian mare *Poviest (by *Salon).  His awesome front end, amazing trot and unbelievably gentle personality could  make him an important  element of your breeding plans.  He is one of the oldest *Padron sons still producing, his bloodlines irreplaceable.
Earl Grey++ - our Amurath Baikal son out of our beautiful Top Ten Bey Shah+ daughter, NV Masira  - Earl Grey++ himself a U.S. National Top Ten Futurity winner and a Regional Champion Halter and Performance horse.  We are thrilled with his ability to produce Champion offspring that are both athletic and beautiful.  Little wonder that he himself, after starting out so successfully as a halter horse, has become a breathtaking sight in the performance ring - having won the Regional Championship in Hunter Pleasure, ATR in both 2008 and 2009!  See him winning the 2009 Region 16 Championship on You Tube by going to  this video link .

 

Xceptshahn - This Bey Shah+ son, out of a Khemosabi++++ daughter (RSD Khaptivation), is siring true to his pedigree - National winning halter and performance horses, horses that are capable of winning both at halter and under saddle, with both open and amateur riders - a quality not found often enough in our breed.
