SAYING GOODBYE

TO 2021 I don’t think many of us are sorry to see 2021 close while looking forward to 2022. While there certainly were challenges, I think that overall, our Arabian horse community had a very good year.

In spite of a pandemic that truly is a life-and-death matter, we persevered in 2021.

We took sensible precautions, but we didn’t let anything slow down our lives with our Arabians. We bred horses, we showed horses and we sold horses (a lot of them and for good prices!), and in all of those pursuits, we managed not just to survive, but as the saying goes, to thrive. That is no small matter. That reflects the strength of our community.

So, let’s celebrate our horses and ourselves as this year ends. We aren’t friends just when the going is good; when the going is tough, we remain dedicated to our wonderful horses. As it has done through the ages, our Arabians stand proud in one of the darkest times of modern history.

Social Media Coordinator Cari Alford Kirchner

I wish all of you, as Arabian horse lovers, a fantastic new year. May our industry continue to grow and our horses prosper in 2022.

JOY, PASSION, LOVE, FAMILY, CONNECTION— these are the reasons the Hagale family is back after a 20-year hiatus from Arabian horses. And they’re not just back—they’re back in a big way.

Twin sisters Jamie and Jennifer Hagale, along with their parents Jim and Mary Martha, were a common sight on the Arabian horse circuit two decades ago and were particularly known for owning the stunning chestnut stallion Mamage (Zodiac Matador x CF Fire Magic). But life happened, the twins went off to college, got married and moved—Jamie to Steamboat Springs, Colo. and Jennifer to Nashville, Tenn. Children were next for Jennifer and Jamie and their lives seemed to be full— too full to add something else. So, they satisfied their Arabian horse passion with visits to ChriShan Park (where they rode as youth riders) on their trips back home to their native Springfield, Mo. But a few years ago, those “visits” sparked a question, “Why couldn’t we get back into this?” And the question sparked a conversation and before the twins knew it, Jim and Mary Martha were on board and the family started horse-shopping and showing. Fast forward to today and Hagale Family Arabians is fully immersed in the Arabian horse industry once again, even more so than they were before.

While the family has amassed an impressive show string and are in the process of building their own barn in Springfield, Mo., undoubtedly SF Aftershoc (SF Specs Shocwave x SF Sweet Elegance) is the cornerstone of their breeding program. More importantly, he’s arguably the horse that embodies their passion for the breed. Purchased in November 2020 after the passing of his longtime owner and promoter L.A. Flynn, SF Aftershoc made a stunning reappearance in the show ring at the
