top tens. This show gathers people from all across the U.S., plus many other countries as well, all adding to the excitement of great competition and large classes. My favorite part of the show is seeing everyone we don’t get to see the rest of the year. Our clients like being able to show to several different panels of judges and they are always groups of great horsemen and women. The show is well organized and efficiently run, and for the most part has better weather that time of year than anywhere else. It is also the only time of the year we get to show outside.” When considering what sets the Scottsdale show apart from every other show in the world, you might find yourself saying, “Where to begin?” With Scottsdale comes a history and a legacy that is unmatched for the Arabian horse and better yet, with a Scottsdale champion comes honor and prestige that can only be realized after years of hard work and patience with our beloved Arabians. The Scottsdale show has everything—an ever-improving facility in WestWorld, a hard-working and dedicated staff, loyal trainers, exhibitors, owners, breeders, members of the outside community, vendors, and of course, at the core of it all, the best Arabian horses in the world. The 2013 show brought all the success of past years in the highly competitive classes, sales, breeding opportunities, and the fun of spending the week with close friends. In the following pages, you can read several accounts of the show from the people who know it best—trainers, judges, amateurs, committee members, and breeders.

Liz Bentley IIB Farms

“We took 11 horses to the show this year and we won eight championships, four reserve championships and 17

“Also, in the changes made to the grounds, we liked the Equidome being enclosed. It quieted the arena down and made it warmer and wind free. Before, when there was bad weather, you couldn’t escape it. Now you can go to the Equidome to get warm; the day that the weather was cold and rainy, the stands were full and people stayed to watch the show, where in years past, they would have left. I also really liked how the exhibits were attached to the arena building and it flowed easily into both sides. Improvements and weather aside, I have to admit I love showing in Wendell arena because it is outside, and more often than not, on a gloriously sunny Scottsdale day, you simply can’t beat it.”

David Boggs

Midwest Training Centre “We had an incredibly exciting Scottsdale show full of big and special moments, and emotional wins by very special horses and happy owners. The “Dream Show” show was started off by our daughter, Emma, who showed on the youth halter day and won three grand champion awards with great competition in her classes. It’s really special to be a father and to see one of your


kids go out there and do so well—she was fabulous and Emma truly loves the horses. Her success started off the show for Midwest with a bang! One of the most special wins of the week went to the beautiful yearling filly, Bella Vitorio ORA who—sired by Vitorio TO, one of the leading sires at Midwest—won Scottsdale junior champion filly. Bred by Janey Morse, she was sold to HRH Sheik Ammar before the championship. Praise goes to Janey of Oak Ridge Arabians and Vitorio, for breeding one of the four major champions of Scottsdale—it’s a great feat.”

“The monumental win for us was that of *Pogrom, the newly crowned Scottsdale Supreme Halter Champion, which was a moment I’ll never forget. To have the opportunity to present a horse for the great breeders of Janów in Poland and director Dr. Marek Trela, is an experience of great pride and joy. I fell in love with Pogrom when I saw him as a yearling colt in Paris, and that’s where we first opened negotiations for the lease of Pogrom to Midwest. He has 90 foals coming this year; there’s a dozen currently on the ground and they’re just spectacular. Breeders are rebooking and rebreeding, so the reception for Pogrom is amazing. It felt like the entire fairgrounds was there to see the four-year-old stallion class and Pogrom entered the tent like six tigers by the tail—very vibrant and full of himself. A great show horse—very kind and goodminded—Pogrom has the structure to be a racehorse and is a great athlete, all while having the beauty that is so important in halter competition today. The “eyes of the world” are on Pogrom, and I’m just honored to be at the end of his lead.” “As for the Scottsdale show in general, it is the largest and the best halter show in the world, which means that it attracts breeders from all over the globe. People enjoy seeing all the new, young horses and they get this opportunity at Scottsdale. To enjoy the youngsters outside in the sunshine of Wendell Arena is always very special. Even though we did have a little rain this year, for the most part it was fabulous. This show is the place to kick off the year and it creates an excitement and electricity that no other show has. It’s also important because it’s the beginning of the breeding season.” David Boggs and Marek Trela, director of Janow Podlaski State Stud.

auction class. For me, “Macy” is a horse you dream about. She is easy to fall in love with and hard to forget.”

“Scottsdale is a unique show because of the diversity in its participants. You get people from all over the world competing at, and watching Scottsdale; it’s amazing. The people that put on this show every year do an amazing job and I am very thankful to them for it. In many ways, Scottsdale is very inspiring. Every year, it is the show you get to see many of the future superstars for the first time, and I am speaking of both halter and performance. There are so many well known and respected national champions today, that I can say, ‘I remember when I saw them in Scottsdale for the first time.’ I love it.”

This win was by far the most special for me of any I have ever had. Not only is “Macy” several generations of our breeding program, she was also conditioned, trained, clipped and presented by myself. Don’t get me wrong, I by no means take credit for her win, “Macy” led me to that win, not the other way around; I just tried to not get in her way too much! It was nice to show a horse that I knew so well. I tried my best, and she pulled us both through. I couldn’t be more proud of her.”

Wunderbar Arabians

“My favorite part of this year’s show would have to be Mariabella WA’s unanimous championship in the SSS

98 | ArAbiAn Horse Times

“The rest of the show was successful. We ended up with several top tens in halter and performance both. One of the many reasons I love our horses so much is they are beautiful enough to do halter, but are also athletic and trainable. I look forward to bringing both halter and


performance horses back for Scottsdale 2014!”

Katie Garland Garlands LTD

“ROL Divine Style, owned by Delsan Arabians’ Nancy DeLisi and Carol Sandusky is truly a once in a lifetime kind of horse. I am so fortunate to be able to have a horse of this caliber. Any young trainer dreams of having a horse like this, and I am incredibly lucky to have him in my life! I am also lucky that his owners went up to my dad one day and said, “I see how much Katie likes the English horses, do you mind if we invest in Katie’s future and buy her an English horse to train and build herself up as an English trainer?” My dad said he about died and just didn’t know what to say. And just like that, the search for my English horse began. We wanted to find a young horse that wasn’t broke yet, so I could start all on my own and show people that I made him. That’s when “Duke” came into my life. We saw a video of him as a 2-year-old after Nationals 2011 and called Dennis Wigren, who works for R.O. Lervick Arabians, and he told us about him. At Scottsdale 2012, we saw a video of him long-lining and we knew we had to have him. Having been in my life only one year now, he has already given me so many memories. Before “Duke”, if you would have asked me if I thought I would show in the Arabian English futurity at nationals and go reserve champion, and then go onto Scottsdale and win unanimously the Arabian English junior horse, I of course, would have assumed you were joking! I never thought I’d get an opportunity like this and I am truly grateful. My first Scottsdale championship win is a dream come true! “I love everything about the Scottsdale show! The weather is almost always sunny and warm, and even though you’re working, you can still enjoy yourself; it’s like a vacation

horse show. It is the big kick-off show for the beginning of the season, an all around fun horse show, and at the end of the day, shows should be fun!” “I showed a lot of different horses this year, ranging from western to hunter to English, but the English horses are truly my passion! The rush you get when you trot into the arena while everyone is yelling and cheering offers a feeling that is just indescribable!”

Phyllis LaMalfa

Arabian Horse Association of Arizona “It was a good show; it was just quite the bummer that it rained in the middle of it, but everybody was a good sport and we dealt with it accordingly. Speaking for the reining classes of the show, I think the competition gets better every year. I think that we’re breeding better and better horses and they’re becoming more competitive, good enough to compete against any reiner, not just Arabian reiners.” “It’s the biggest Arabian reining show of the year, and that’s mostly because of the futurities; our biggest class of the show this year was probably the Half-Arabian futurity. My

Volume 43, No. 10 | 99


favorite class is the Celebrity Slide because it’s fun to see trainers from other disciplines practice during the week, get nervous before they compete, and have fun doing it. It’s also great to see everybody—no matter what kind of Arabian horse you have—come down to the reining ring and have a good time together. Everybody intermingles and enjoys the show, and that’s what it’s all about. No matter what your horse does, it’s always great to get together and have a good time with friends and horses alike.” “I think that WestWorld is just going to continue to get better. It’s going to be a really awesome place to go show your horse. Eventually, no matter what kind

100 | ArAbiAn Horse Times

of weather we have, it won’t affect a thing. There’s something like 250,000 people that come through the gates during the show. It’s a great way for people to get to see and interact with horses. For example, the first year that one of our big corporate sponsors came, they were highly involved in corporate packages with golf tournaments. It ended up that their group loved the show so much that they quit being corporate sponsors to the golf tournaments and they have increased their sponsorship for us. Their clients were actually fighting over the tickets to the show. These are all people that really don’t know anything about horses, but they love it. It’s fun to see people get excited, and it’s great sharing what we love with people, and having them love it too. That’s my favorite, seeing new people enthralled


by it all. And because there’s such a variety of horses and with all the disciplines at the show, there are a lot of different choices for people to watch and experience. Everybody can relate to something, which makes it kind of neat.”

Dixie North

North Arabians We always look forward to the yearling classes

especially. We love to see the young horses by all of the

various stallions presented by the different farms. When

it is sunny and warm, it is, of course, more enjoyable. They look so much better in the sunlight.

We love catching up with all the people. You are able to see friends from all over the world, catch up with

everyone, and just enjoy the ambiance of Scottsdale. My two aunts, who are in their late 80s, travel from

Missouri and Tempe every year for the show. They love watching the horses.

We were ecstatic with the winning Ever After foals. It makes us so proud as we bred his dam and Ever After too, so having our homegrown stallion be so successful is very gratifying as a breeder. We have seen some newborn foals by Ever After already this year that look to be potential contenders at Scottsdale next year, so that is also very exciting. All in all, just living, breathing, and experiencing so many beautiful Arabians for 10 days is a completely satisfying experience.

Joe Polo

2013 Scottsdale Judge “When we talk about what makes Scottsdale special, it’s really the whole thing. The quality of the horses, the

number of spectators that Scottsdale draws in, and the breeders and owners alike that are there—for me, it’s just the best Arabian horse show in the world. There is so much history in Scottsdale for the Arabian horse— Scottsdale offers so much to every type of horse person. You have the halter or breeding audience, the performance, plus the reining and beyond. If you’re there just to do some shopping, there’s excellent shopping ranging from jewelry to buying a horse. There’s a lot happening at the show. As a judge, it is amazing to be able to stand in the middle of Wendell arena on Sunday morning of the halter championships with the best horses of the show. You can look around and see all of the people standing there, and in a lot of cases, a great deal of them don’t even own a horse and it is their first exposure to Arabian horses. It is also great having the opportunity to judge the young horses—the yearling fillies or colts, or the junior horses, in the arena. Having the first chance of the year to see those horses is incredibly exciting.” “The Scottsdale show can be a long week for the volunteers, owners, trainers, as well as the horses and the judges, but in the end, it is all absolutely worth it. You have people who have never had any exposure to Arabian horses and the Scottsdale association does such a great job through the promotion of the show outside of the horse community. They are able to draw in so many people that are not horse owners and when they’re exposed to the greatness of the Arabian horse, it makes it all worth it. At the end of the day, it is really an honor to be a part of the show by judging it—I would judge it every year if I had the opportunity! “For me, there were a few really impressive classes that stick out in my mind from the show. The yearling filly class was probably, in all the years that I have judged or been a spectator, as good as I’ve seen in a very long time. It was full of beautiful yearling fillies. And then the mare championship was just incredible; it was a great honor to be able to judge a mare like the champion mare. Also, I had the opportunity to judge the Half-Arabian western

Volume 43, No. 10 | 101


open, which was a great experience. The high level that those western horses were trained at, proved to be a great one in depth. The horses and trainers worked so well—I found it a great example of the prime competition and high quality classes at the Scottsdale show.”

Jeff Sloan

Aria International “We had two horses at this year’s Scottsdale show and each won their classes: *Pogrom, who won champion stallion and supreme champion, and an

102 | ArAbiAn Horse Times


Impresario filly that we purchased from the Mulawa program in Australia that placed first in the two-yearold junior filly class. They’re both really special in their own right. *Pogrom is a sensation here for lots of obvious reasons and has represented the famous Janów Podlaski Stud Farm in Poland very well. Having an association with the breeding program in Poland is an honor. Not many people get the opportunity to lease a horse from Poland, let alone be able to lease, arguably, the most important stallion in Poland right now. To have his care, promotion, and everything entrusted in my and David’s hands, is quite an honor. There is also the benefit that because we lease horses and bring them over here, breeders and enthusiasts here in the U.S. have gained access to some of the amazing breeding from Poland that otherwise, just wouldn’t be available to American breeders. The filly we own in a partnership with brand new owners/enthusiasts, which factored significantly into our plans at Scottsdale this year. To have these new owners come to Scottsdale to show a horse that we recommended and then to win in a very competitive class was particularly gratifying. It is positive for the breed at large because now they are sharing their experience with their circle of friends and are already talking about doing more themselves as well—it’s just a very positive thing all around.”

put, it’s the Scottsdale show. I’ve been coming to the Scottsdale show since 1982. My first few years in this business, I couldn’t even break into the top twenty, and now, over the last few years, I’ve been involved with horses that have won several champion stallion and mare titles, and most amazingly for me, the supreme championship three years in a row and four out of the last five years. So for me, being able to be part of the Scottsdale Show every year and to now be in the record books as competing so favorably with our horses, is the realization of my grandest dreams.”

“As for the Scottsdale show, it’s just the granddaddy of all the shows as far as I’m concerned. It has a great heritage and legacy, and winning carries such gravity because, simply Taryl O’Shea competing in the Celebrity Slide.

Jacque Thompson

Smoky Mountain Park Arabians “It would be hard to pick one favorite moment from the Scottsdale show because there were so many fun and exciting things that happened. Smoky Mountain Park won several top tens this year, mostly with farm-bred horses. It is fun to see the babies grow up and start to achieve their potential. Our stallion, The Renaissance, unanimously won the Arabian English pleasure stallions, and came back with an exhilarating performance in the Arabian English pleasure championship in the Equidome Friday night with Jim Stachowski aboard. Afterward, for a thrill, I took the opportunity to climb aboard The Renaissance. I was impressed that, though I am an amateur rider, The Renaissance was gentle enough for me to ride. I find that fascinating given his high-energy performance in his class. Riding The Renaissance reminds me that historically, Arabians were known to be as kind as they were spirited, and the ideal family show horse.” “Scottsdale has an energy, a history, and a tradition of excellence that draws the very best owners, trainers and Arabian horses year after year. It is a great chance to enjoy some winter sun while seeing some exciting young horses, and peek at the upcoming show season. It also is a good place to get a feel for the current market and the attitude of the industry, which really seemed to be up this year. At this Scottsdale, Mike and I were especially blessed to have spent some quality time with Gene LaCroix, an influential figure in Scottsdale’s illustrious past.” “We were excited to present our first Half-Arabian by Baskghazi, Baskghazillionheir SMP. He placed second, second, third, on the judges’ cards, barely missing reserve champion in the yearling Half-Arabian halter class. I won my first Scottsdale top ten ever, riding my Arabian country pleasure mare Tempani SMP and Mike rode Afire’s Sunset, in Half-Arabian country pleasure mare to a top ten placing. Chief Premonition SMP was top ten

Mike Whelihan Whelihan Arabians

“We brought 22 horses in total and ended up having a great show. We won three championships, in the 40 & Over, 55 & Over, and JOTR country pleasure divisions, a reserve championship, and 32 top tens—we’re very pleased with all our wins and rides!” “This year, I thought the competition was good as always, the enthusiasm was up, and there were, of


course, lots of entries, which is great to see. I think the thing that keeps us coming back year after year to Scottsdale is the fact that it forces us to get ready—a jump start to our show season. Secondly, it gets us into some, hopefully, nicer weather. And lastly, the greatest thing about Scottsdale is the fact that they do such a great job exposing it to the general public—people who don’t have horses, but love the show at any rate. I am always impressed by the number of people in the stands. It’s a fantastic sight.”

Janice McCrea Wight

Vice President Arabian Horse Association of Arizona “My favorite part of the Scottsdale Show is getting to see all my friends from around the world. Over the last thirtysome years, I have had the pleasure of meeting some of the most interesting people on the planet in Scottsdale, all gathered to see the best Arabian horses from around the world. I love the show and dedicate a good portion

Volume 43, No. 10 | 105


of my life helping to make it the event it has become, working with the most competent staff and Board for the last few years. The biggest success lies in our ability to remain innovative and not be afraid of change. The Scottsdale Signature Stallion program has brought many new amateur owners to be hands-on in the arena and not just a spectator. Every year, the horses and amateurs have improved and this is important for the future of the breed. We had a hundred horses entered in some of those classes, indicating an undeniable area of interest.” “Because the show is at the start of the breeding season, breeders from everywhere come to see the babies. Many decisions are made rail-side and the chatter in the crowd is all about the dream of breeding the next superstar. In the performance arena, riders are looking for new and improved mounts and youth riders are adding a year of maturity and hope for the fresh new season. This year in particular had a special vibe of excitement. I believe the long tradition of “Scottsdale” is the reason for the desire to reach the coveted goal of Scottsdale Champion. I know there is nothing like it. For decades, the significant stars of our breed got their start at Scottsdale.” I can remember going to my first Scottsdale show at McCormick Ranch in the mid-sixties and decided then that I was going to live in this glorious place. Scottsdale has grown, and the hotels and restaurants are world class. It is one of the leading tourist and meeting destinations in the nation. The weather is usually ideal and the people are friendly and helpful, and the shopping is beyond anyone’s dreams. There are so many farms that are located in town and the off-campus activities add to the

106 | ArAbiAn Horse Times

lure of attendees from all over the world. This added bonus is unique to the show. “We have worked tirelessly with the City of Scottsdale to achieve the 43 million dollars worth of improvements. Upon completion, it will be one of the finest facilities in the country. I credit the dedication of the users, the foresight of city officials, and the competence of the WestWorld staff for the success. It was tough working around the construction, but the show went on because of the cooperation of everyone. Next year we can look forward to the completed project. The schedule always needs tweaking because of the multiple arenas and events. Every effort is always made to put the horses and exhibitors first. The weather is always a factor for us, even with so many covered arenas. Sooner or later you have to go outside. We now have many all-weather areas, but it does affect the gate attendance. It was good for jacket and horse blanket sales.” “I always have to thank the local TV stations and press for all the support they give my Media and Public Relations Committee. The TV crews were there from every station to promote the show and the Arabian horse. I appreciate all the willing exhibitors I grabbed to be on TV. Breed promotion is something we all have to take seriously if we want the popularity of the Arabian horse to grow. The fact that three to four hundred people showed up for the barn tours clearly indicates that there is huge interest in Arabian horses that deserves cultivation. Finally, I can’t say enough about our staff, headed by Taryl O’Shea, our President Jay Allen, the Board of Directors, the club members, and volunteers. Talent and expertise are always key to success.” n

Arabian & Half-Arabian Reining Futurity Classic It’s Reining—Money, Excitement, Fun And More! by Sue AdAmS

108 | ArAbiAn Horse Times


T

he Arabian Reining Horse Association’s (ARHA) 2013 Scottsdale Arabian and Half-Arabian Reining Futurity Classic scores perfect marks in the record books for prize monies, favorite part of the show, continued growth and future promise, along with excitement and fun for everyone. Opening weekend saw a group of talented youth competitors zealously embracing the Wells Fargo Advisors Arena as the best place for high-energy action and camaraderie. First time reining competitor, Keeley Clark, with her father Mark Miller, summed up expectations for all, “I just want to have a lot of fun,” she laughed.

Freestyle Reining winners Kim Niven and HH Charmed N Color, riding to “Girl On Fire”.

Fun it was on Monday afternoon in the Equidome with a new class added to the lineup, Freestyle Reining—reining maneuvers performed to the rider’s choice of music. Kim Niven painted some flames on HH Charmed N Color and rode to Girl On Fire. Kim’s delight was infectious, “I took something off my bucket list,” she exclaimed. “Can’t wait until next year!” Fun continued that evening as the ARHA “Celebrity Slide” event lived up to its spirited and competitive reputation. This year’s event attracted acclaimed performance trainers to become novice reiners, sliding and spinning before an enthusiastic audience. A Calcutta-style auction of these novices paired with their reining trainers added some $13,000 to the excitement with a portion of funds benefiting the ARHA and the remainder going to the buyer of the winning team. Riding first, Taryl O’Shea, Executive Director of the Arabian Horse Association of Arizona, paired with Nathan Kent, held the lead

until nearly the end. Then Josh Quintus, coached by Greg Harris, managed to best her score by a couple points to ride away the Slide winner.

Finals weekend brought out the big money Futurities—over one million awarded since 2005. Friday night the purebreds vied for a total purse of $46,000 with payouts through the top ten. Breeding programs developing reining Arabians are making a big difference in the ring with beautiful horses showing at very high performance levels. Take a Spin, owned by Amara Spizzirri and ridden by Dan Huss, came away the champion with $16,000. Second and third places were split with a tie between Maksymilian MA, owned by Gary Magnino, and ridden by Crystal McNutt-Brock and AM Reigning Star owned by Joe Betten, also ridden by Crystal McNutt-Brock. Crystal, along with other trainers and some amateurs, can compete against themselves in some classes. In reining competitions, each competitor rides the same pattern with that ride judged individually and thus may ride more than one horse in a class. At the Scottsdale Futurity, five judges score each ride and the high and low scores are discarded with the three remaining scores added for total points. Saturday evening’s Half-Arabian Reining Futurity Championship saw serious competitive action amongst the top ten for a total purse of $74,000. A “ride-off ” was necessary to a break a tie for the $30,000 champion and $11,000 reserve champion honors. Brian Welman riding Gone N Dunit RA for Richard Ames edged out Crystal McNuttBrock on Were Dun Johnny owned by Susan Lefevre-Friedman.


A windy Sunday closed the show as the NonPro Derby competitors took to the ring. Three years ago, Tim Anderson recognized that reining horses need an opportunity to earn prize money after the futurity years. He made a four-year $20,000 annual funding commitment to the HalfArabian Non-Pro Derby for six, seven and eight year old reiners. Anderson’s vision is producing significant results with 18 entries this year, and won by Cori Vokoun riding BSF Buffalo Bill Cody. Nicole Kent on Hazel de Boise went champion in the purebred Non-Pro division, with Joe Betten winning the Primetime class. This level of enthusiasm and support makes reining the fastest growing discipline in the Arabian industry today. Indeed, responses to a recent Arabian Horse Times survey indicated how many people want to ride a reiner. To those people, ARHA president Eleanor Hamilton of Eleanor’s Arabian Farm says, “Just pick a trainer and go try! And don’t think age has anything to do with it!” Dick Ames, of Cedar Ridge Arabians, is in full agreement. “You’re only going to get out of this what you put in it so I tell everybody, get out there and try!”
