HE WAS STILL RUNNING ENDURANCE AT AGE 19 - 05/29/04 completed Michaux Madness, he was 28th out of 64 starts.  Officially retired on 07/04/04.  It was a great party!

There are not enough words to describe how special this stallion is to us and to the many people that have taken lessons with him as their mount or watched him work at a CTR or AERC meet.  He is a truly prepotent stallion, passing along his disposition, temperament, conformation and agility to every foal, no matter what the breed (or temperament) of mare.  What a bonus that he is Foundation-bred and his foals are all eligible for FPD designation with the ApHC.

Shark's foals have achieved ROM's in a wide range of disciplines from Western and English Pleasure, to Dressage, Reining, Trail and Halter.  He has completed over 1700 miles in trail, CTR, LD, and END riding and driving.

His color production and pattern consistency record speaks for itself.  We offer a color guarantee on all registered ApHC, POA and Walkaloosa mares.  Shark is a natural shuffler and passes this mile eating gait along to his foals:  50% of the time on ApHC registered non-shuffling mares, 90% of the time of ApHC registered shuffling mares, 100% on gaited breeds of mares.

He's working endurance.  As of November 2007 he has completed four limited distance rides with good scores and attitude totaling 125 miles. Stay tuned for more on his adventures.  Connie will be competing him in 2008 so we're sure to have some fun!  Seaon's First ride is the Mary Lutz in NJ, April 6, 2008.

Proven stallion producing look alike colts.  Standing live cover only for 2008.  Semen shipping will be available for the 2009 season.  Keep an eye on the 2008 FOALS page for his first crop of foals for NPF.

Nice smooth gait and relaxed way of going.  No concerns at all.  Look at his photo album to see this way of going under saddle.  Very natural.  He was recently inspected for SSHBEA and the inspector loved his gait.

He is calm, unconcerned about the other horses around him, likes to move forward down the trail, holds his gait very nicely at speed, and is the absolute nicest stallion you're gonna meet.
