Rock’s first big inspection!

SAR Tiki Rock On experienced his first approved sire inspection!

In an effort to expand Rock’s breeding horizons, Carol embarked on an effort to get Rock accepted as an approved Shagya sire. On April 22, 2019, Rock went through the Performance Shagya-Arabian Registry inspection process. Carol and Celena hauled Rock to Vancouver, WA for the inspection.

SAR is happy to announce that Rock passed the inspection and is now an approved PShA sire.

We would like to thank Kyle and Sarah Hockett, as well as Lois Fox for their tremendous help in preparing Rock for his inspection. SAR also appreciates our amazing trainer, Celena Pentrack, for her superb handling of Rock for his inspection, while his regular handler, Darlene Merlich, recovers from surgery. Rock appreciated all the special attention.

If you would like to book Rock as a sire to your mare, please visit our contact page and get in touch with Carol.

First ride of the year “Grizzly in the Outback” was a huge success! SAR Dragon Rider and Carol Giles finished strong in 8th place. SAR Valiant Heart and Ron Sproat finished 5th and also won Best in Class. OMR Prophet and Celena Pentrack placed 3rd and were all smiles.. all day 😊. *Also pictured is Tani Bates on Flash who paired up nicely with Ron and Val*. SAR Tiki Eclipse and SAR Smokey Phantom both finished the 25 miler with Lynne Walters and Cheri Van Bebber on board, respectively.

Lynne and Lumpy got together to complete the 25 miler.

Lumpy and Lynne got a pep talk from Charleen before heading out on their final loop. 

Cheri Van Bebber and her girl, SAR Smokey Phantom finished the 25 miler! 

Phantom loved the yummy mash provided by ride management!
