Paragon Arabian Horse Show Awards: Halter Class Champions

Champion ZIMPATIQUE by SHAH AZIM x Eulipia by Gdansk, owned by Carol Steppe of Day Dream Arabians and bred by Phil and Marlene Hobson

Says Carol Steppe, of Day Dream Arabians, "In 1996 I had a U.S. NATIONAL TOP TEN STALLION, U.S. NATIONAL TOP TEN FUTURITY FILLY and U.S. NATIONAL TOP TEN HERITAGE SWEEPSTAKES COLT. In 1998 I had a U.S. NATIONAL TOP TEN STALLION, U.S. NATIONAL TOP TEN FUTURITY COLT and U.S. NATIONAL TOP TEN WESTERN PLEASURE FUTURITY HORSE. My secret to success? I have purchased my horses at Paragon, bred my mares at Paragon, stood my stallion at Paragon, marketed my horses at Paragon and shown my horses with Paragon. I love the breeding program, the talented and caring staff, the clients, the Krauch's, the comraderie, hospitality, professionalism and integrity. I love that Christine is willing to share her years of experience and knowlege with all of us. She is a treasure in our industry. Best of all, I have fun at Paragon. We all do, it's our home away from home. Been here for years, be here forever!"

These are Highlights from the Paragon show schedule. We are soooo proud of all our "babies!"

Remember, the horse you loved before he went into the ring is the same horse after the class is over, win or lose. Enjoy the show for what it is - a great place to let everyone see that special horse - a great place for you to have fun in the ring. The rest is one person's opinion in a very subjective situation. If you wouldn't personally hire a particular judge to come to your home, evaluate your horse and act on his advise, then don't be too excited about his decision one way or another in the ring. Just have a great time until you run out of money!
