ABOUT US
It all began in 1975 with the purchase of the yearling *Ramses
Fayek son, Amurath Elan. Terrified of a young stallion, but determined to
learn how to handle him, Janie Greenberg began the now very successful
Rideaufield Farms breeding programme. Elan proved to be an excellent
choice - Regional Reserve Champion Stallion as a two-year-old and then on to
being a successful sire....
Always with an eye to quality and correct conformation, the
mares of Rideaufield were carefully chosen. When the time came to look for
a stallion to breed to the Amurath Elan daughters, Three-B Rasheik++ came to
Rideaufield. Under Rideaufield's love and guidance, Three-B Rasheik++
earned his Legion of Merit (a few performance points short of his Legion of
Supreme Merit) and was named Canadian National Top Ten Stallion. He
became the heart of Rideaufield and in many ways a "once in a lifetime
horse". An IAHA Top Ten Juvenile Sweepstakes Sire (even until many
years after his death), Three-B Rasheik++ put Rideaufield "on the map". |
And then, in 1990, the beautiful *Bask son, Amurath Baikal came to
Rideaufield.... The breeding emphasis switched - from a largely,
highly successful Half Arabian breeding programme - to an equally highly
successful purebred programme. Amurath Baikal sired many beautiful
Champions worldwide and has left a legacy at Rideaufield with his beautiful son
Earl Grey (United States Top Ten Futurity Colt, Region 18 Champion Stallion and
Eastern Canadian Breeders Champion Stallion) and his full sister Simply The Best
(Region 16 Champion Mare, East Coast Champion Mare). |

Currently Rideaufield Farms stands the Amurath Baikal son,
Earl Grey (United States Top Ten Futurity
Colt, Eastern Canadian Breeders Champion Stallion and Region 18 Champion
Stallion), the Bey Shah++ son, Xceptshahn, Top 30 Sweepstakes Sire) and
the gorgeous *Padron son, Pomerol (undefeated
Halter Champion). The broodmare band of Rideaufield includes Regional
and National winning mares. Correctness, quality and temperament are of
paramount importance and - as successive generations of Rideaufield horses are
born - the success continues!
