Endurance Horses and Prospects
Black Filly
April 3, 2004
Knight Invader x Black Lexxii
(Friesian x Arabian)
Ellie is currently leased by Carol Davies for Sadie Trombley. Sadie has goals of riding in this years CDS Junior Championships. These two make a talented young pair. Watch for them to do great things in the dressage show ring this season!
Zoie Knightstar Nar aka Zoie
Knight Invader x Zephyra
(Friesian) x (Arabian)
Born June 2003
Zoie also made her debut in the latter part of 2008. Zoie has earned many compliments on the trail and from the vets for her beautiful and effortless way of going down the trail. She seems to just float along and is super comfortable to ride. Her impulsion is exceptional throughout the rides and she looks the same at the end of each ride. She is a larger sized cross with a huge barrel and nice large feet however it does not seem to hinder her stamina and performance. She has had no problems carrying a heavyweight rider.
Knight Invader x CR Sahara Gold
(Friesian x 3/4 Arabian)
June 11, 2003
“G” made his debut in endurance in the latter part of 2008. He shows promise in the sport and has impressed the vets with his exceptional recoveries and CRIs. With his rare color and 16 hand “husky” build he certainly stands out on the trail and is a pleasure to ride. His blindness in his left eye does not seem to hinder him at all.
Rebel Fire Bask 1996-2006
1993 Purebred Arabian Gelding
TC Fire Fire x Breezie Bask
Rebel died in a tragic trail accident on July 9, 2006 while training for the 2006 Tevis Cup. Rebel was an exceptional horse and he will be missed by many. He taught me how to train to compete against the elite and strive to become an international and local representative of the sport of endurance horse racing. He was my greatest horse out of over 20 horses that I have actively competed on over the past 20 years. The loss of him brings me great sadness so I try to remember the wonderful memories of the joy I had while riding him.
