Fancy is a rare reg
31/32 Arabian whose offspring will be Pintabian producers. Fancy is actually 63/64 Arabian by blood as her nonArabian Lineage traces to Peppy Gayzona, whose dam was an unregistered Half Arabian sired by the Crabbet stallion Radfan (ref All Breed Pedigree Database.
Fancy is about 15H tall with long legs, a level croup (that
needs no special posing to achieve) and an elegant
shapely neck and head. Her legs are perfectly straight
and as our farrier quoted "requires no special
trimming" to have her stand square and true.
She has a few homozygous type of spotting in her white
which would indicate that she may be a high percentage
tobiano pinto producer. She is a rare high percentage
Crabbet Arabian bred horse that are known for their
athletic abilities, trainability and gentle willing
dispositions. Many of the top halter and performance
horses of the past and today can trace a line to Crabbet.
Even when you think you are buying "Straight
Russian" you may find that the lineage traces
to Crabbet horses that were purchased as foundation
stock from Crabbet Park. Crabbet horses were sold
all over the World, USA, Austraila, Egypt, Poland,
Sweden, Russia, and on and on. Crabbet horses have
been used so often to improve on other Arabian strains
that pure Crabbet is hard to find anymore, especially
if one is looking for the taller 15.2H+ size Crabbet
bred strain of horses. Fancy's dam was a granddaughter
of Aurab(1957-1979) a big beautiful Chestnut stallion that
was described by Lady Anne Lytton ( Crabbet Park)
in 1977 as "Aurab impressed me as the most striking
and perfect Arab I'd seen". Aurab ( pictured to the left and below) was advanced in age at that time and could not have been moved to England, so a representative son of Aurab, Ben Rabba, became the first
American horse to be leased back to England and subseqently
sired several British National Champion horses. These
are the type of horses that are "born broke"
and are not high maintenance hot headed horses and
they don't require daily riding to keep them tuned
up so they can be ridden. Her Half Sisters, TC Annatasia
and Maestros Ariel can be pulled out of a pasture,
without having been ridden for years, saddled up and
ridden safely on the trails without prior lunging.
Fancy was started under saddle without any prior ground
work. She was saddled up and ridden with a Western
Saddle and a Flat Halter with reins attached to the
side of the halter. On her 3rd ride she was ridden
out in the rain, crossing a creek along lakeside trails
as if she had been ridden for years. These type of
horses are worth their weight in gold and this is
something that is bred in and cannot be trained in.
It is the "live in your tent" disposition
that the Arabs bred into the first purebred Arabian
horse where loyalty from your horse was crucial for
survival in the desert.
 This
filly has been special from the start. She is the
last foal from my foundation Crabbet Arabian mare,
Prides Fantasia (pictured below),that vets said would never conceive
again at her advanced age. She is Fantasia's only
Half-Arabian foal and only Pinto Foal.The odds of
Fantasia becoming pregnant , having a filly and producing
a colored pinto foal with great markings on both sides
was extremley remote, thus we believe Fancy has some
special role to play.
Fancy's purebred Arabian half sisters, Maestros Ariel and TC Annatasia are both multiple World Champion PtHA producing mares of 50% Arabian Pinto offspring. Fancy's offspring will be 98%+ Arabian, with even more Arabian type and representing over 20 years of Pinto Arabian breeding! Fancy always carries her tail high over her back as
she runs across the pasture. Even as a baby you could
see she was going to be something fancy, hence her
name became Cheyenne Fancy CTA. She has very special
pinto markings. She carries a white heart shape under
her mane on her right side. On her left side is a
representation of a caveman drawing of a llama or
ram. She has beautiful white stockings that are accented
by the black stockings on her knees. She has a beautiful
long tail with white on the top and black on the bottom.
Her eyes are very big and expressive. She loves attention
and will follow you around the pasture. She is extremely
gentle, loves people and is extremely easy to work
with, she even lets you trim the inside of her ears
without a twitch.
 Fancy's
sire, Hidasar Cheyenne Moon, was a very charismatically
beautiful stallion that captivated people with his
personality as he ran in our pastures. He was a 15/16
Arabian Tri-Colored Tobiano Pinto stallion that represented
some of the most beautiful Polish and Crabbet lines
of the past. Cheyenne was a State Fair of Texas Halter
champion as a young horse and sired a Pinto Arabian
filly that was exported to Costa Rica to start their
foundation Pinto Arabian breeding program.
We bred Fancy to our black Arabian
stallion, La Black Legacy, for a 2006 foal to create the next generation
of 63/64 Arabian horses carrying on the Crabbet disposition
and adding the exotic beauty and size of Legacy's
bloodlines through The Minstril and Ruminaja, this colt has been sold.
