Rob Roi Perlezon aka "Bob" is our first Arabian/Friesian cross. He is currently being trained to accept the bit and saddle. He has awesome trainability and seems to want to please. (Typical Friesian trait) He definitely looks like a Friesian but he has the movement of an Arabian with a great extended trot.

We would like "Bob" to be an all around prospect for multi-disciplines including endurance, pleasure riding, dressage and driving since he is already so talented. Bob has now completed 6 months of classical dressage training with Jec A. Ballou. In September, Bob was shown at the 2004 Arabian Sport Horse Nationals and went Top Ten in the sport horse in hand half Arabian gelding class! There were nearly 40 entries in this class, so we are very proud of his achievement! Bob is currently in driving and dressage training with Mark Schuerman Show and Sport Horses. He just competed in his first show in sport horse under saddle ATR and Junior horse classes. He and I are new to Class A show riding and we were proud to earn a third (with only one week of show preparation) in the large Junior horse class at the Diablo Arabian Horse Association show. We also earned a score of 81 in our in hand class – lots of 8s and 9s! Thanks much to our professional trainer and friend Mark Schuerman for his encouragement and mentoring.

Bob has also completed a "fun" 15- mile endurance ride in Oakland, CA and had a Cardiac Recovery Index of 48/48 as a fat three year old with hardly any trail experience! So we proved that Friesian crosses do have stamina and BIG hearts!

UPDATE: Bob completed the American River 30 Mile Ride in April in flying colors and earned a lot of attention with his handsome Friesian presence. He had awesome trail sense and great recoveries all day.

SOLD! Congratulations to the Baldwin family of Hawaii!
