'Tiara Fantasy Moun'...Friends and I were at a 'Rodeo Play Day' where this angel was just standing in a pen. It was at a Quarter Horse ranch and  no one had much interest in an Arab. As I understand, she'd been boarded there, but her human ran out of money, so she was payment.

While my friends were winning ribbons chasing cows and running barrels, I was captivated by this mare. My competition horse just stood tied to the trailer.

Tara, as she was called at the time, was spirited and so kind and looked like a yearling. Long feet, dred locks for a mane and tail, skinny, with a lump on her rump...she'd never been ridden, barely been touched, and wary of most everything.

It wasn't til I got her home and started on her paperwork that I saw how beautifully she was bred. Her black sire, 'Nite Mover' had won most every show he'd competed in from halter to western pleasure. She had been leased out to Valentine Arabians in Fort Collins and produced two amazing foals for them. She's back home now and we're hoping for a baby in the spring of 2011..
