Pomerol (*Padron  x *Poviest  (x *Salon)) 
1983 Chestnut Purebred Arabian Stallion 

Fees: $2,000 - AHA Sweepstakes Nominated Sire, SCID clear.

See Pomerol's pedigree...

This grand *Padron son is wonderfully like his sire - tall, beautiful, extremely long necked and possessing just the most wonderful disposition.  As a young horse he was Grand Champion Stallion every time out - including the prestigious Santa Barbara Fall Show, shown by Mr. Michael Byatt.  He was just beginning his performance career when an unfortunate work injury ended his days in the show ring.  Probably one of the only *Padron sons out of a *Salon daughter, this beautiful elegant horse has much to offer the Arabian breed.  In spite of his early setback he has been quietly breeding quality foals that have excelled in a broad range of disciplines including  halter, english pleasure, country english pleasure, western pleasure, native costume and dressage. Our decision to purchase this horse became much easier when we saw three-year-old Colton Boggs call the horse to him.  Pomerol quietly walked over, dropped his muzzle and allowed himself to be led around the arena at the end of a six-foot lead shank!!  (see photo on Special Moments page) The continued response to Pomerol has been  remarkable.  He has garnered interest from across North America ...from  people who remember having seen him in the show ring as a younger horse ...as well as those who were elated that a horse with such a pedigree was still available.

Pomerol stood to a full book of mares in 2007, partially in response to his beauty, charisma, temperament and pedigree as well as his obvious ability to unmistakably stamp his babies with qualtiy, size, athleticism, personality and that very distinctive *Padron look. 

N.B. - it is worth the visit to Rideaufield just to see this grand old gentleman - he is magnificent, truly one of the elderly greats of the Arabian breed....

a little more about Xceptshahn...
...Xceptshahn is a very interesting horse. He has the snort, blow and size that is the trademark of the Bey Shah+ sons; however, he is a beautifully tight coupled horse with a long croup and strong loin. His tail female line traces to Nabiel and Gamaar which gives him his exotic, typey look. He is an extremely leggy individual. Xceptshahn has a very short, typey head and beautifully tipped ears. He is extremely athletic and agile - traits he consistently passes on to his get!
His oldest to show under saddle, Sir Royal Bey Montana++++//, who is owned by Michelle Harbridge, is one of the few Legion of  Masters/Excellence  horses in North America.  Montana has amassed numerous regional wins in halter in both open and amateur divisions as well as numerous National Top Ten Hunter Pleasure awards both Open and Amateur.   2005 was a very successful year for Sir Royal Bey Montana++++// - Canadian Reserve National Champion, Ladies Side Saddle (shown by Corky Sutton) and Top Ten Halter.  In 2006 - Canadian Reserve National Champion Purebred Side Saddle.  And again, numerous Regional Championships in Halter and Performance, both Open and AOTR. 
2006 heralded the Legion of Honor awards to two Xceptshahn daughters:  Pretty Woman+ (at halter) and The Xceptshahnelle Rose RF+ (under saddle) - owned by Lise Clark.  Xceptshahn was named one of the Top 30 Sweepstakes Sires in North America in 2006. 
In 2006, 2007 and 2008 - amongst his winning get in 2006 were two two-year-old Regional Champion Halter horses
  • 2006 Region 9 Champion Mare, WC Ciao Belle, owned by Western Cross Ranch in Texas;  in 2008 she was US National Top Ten Junior Mare (tied for Reserve Champion)
  • 2006 Region 16 Champion Stallion and Champion Two-Year-Old Sweepstakes Colt Colorado RF; 2007 Region 18 Champion Gelding (owned by Rideaufield Farms

Xceptshahn has one of the highest ratios of Champion get to number of get in North America.... quite an accomplishment!

We are also thrilled with the beautiful Xceptshahn daughters bred by Rideaufield, Pretty Woman+Liz Taylor RF and Xceptshahnelle Woman RF, all out of the *Ibn Safinaz daughter, Alia Nazada

Pretty Woman+ ("Julia") has a phenomenal show record to date - three years in a row being named Eastern Canadian Champion Mare and, also in 2004, Region 16 Champion Mare both Open and Amateur . Two of her junior siblings show great promise in the show ring:  Liz Taylor RF (owned by Faye Sampson ), who has started off well in halter (Region 18 Top Five Mare AOTH and Eastern Canadian  Breeders Reserve Champion Mare) and winning her first Hunter class with Debbie Reid in 2005;   Xceptshahnelle Woman RF, 2005 Region 16 Unanimous Champion Two-year-old Sweepstakes Filly and Top Five in the Open Mare class;  and the next, and possibly the best, young Champion of this extremely successful cross,  Colorado RF,  2005 Region 12, 15 and 16 Top Five Yearling Sweepstakes Colt and the talk of the East Coast!

And then the beautiful Xceptshahn daughter, Atiah Zafar - her first time shown in 2005 as a seven-year-old... undefeated Class A Halter, Canada and the United States and Region 16 and 18 Reserve Champion Mare.  She is equally beautiful under saddle, and, in 2006 was Eastern Canadian Breeders Champion Hunter Pleasure and Region 18 Top Five Mare... 

WHAT WE SEE IN THE BABIES - lots of size, beautiful shaped high set on necks, lots of leg, strong loined, short coupled, pretty face and ears, extremely agile, intelligent and athletic.
