Welcome to the National American Saddlebred Horse Society blog

WELCOME to our blog.....
We will eventually be utilising this blog as our main news page, which will be linked to from our main website http://www.americansaddlebred.org/
It is currently able to be used by NASHS members by invitation only and will be well moderated.
However, due to the nature of the internet it is still able to be viewed by others so please note: DO NOT post any information or pictures you would not liked viewed by other outside parties.
All comments will be viewed prior to posting so please keep the content clean, polite and non-political.
Any comments found to be defamatory and/or not in the best interests of the club or the breed will be deleted immediately. A series of warnings will be issued to the person and any continuation of the same behaviour will result in a ban on posting and a membership status review.
Please bear with us as we become familiar with the blog attributes and eventually in time more pages of interest will be added.
This will not replace the website due to it's obvious restrictions, so please refer to the website for any other information, downloads etc.

In order to be fair to all members we request that you try to keep photos to a minimum of 1-2 per post.
The HOME page is the only page where you can actually post to. So, other pages such as club announcements will remain as a stand alone information source.
Thankyou, Regards Admin.

Web reference to ASB performer

Found this post on a Net Forum, and followed up the address: Some great photos of another Saddlebred gelding performing beautifully at Interschools competition.
Don't know who the "poster" is, but it was obviously intended to be information to be shared with other ASB fans.
Thanks for the contact!!


"As a point of interest to saddlebred owners the stallion,
Sutton's Anacacho Prince and the mare Anaconda's Images Sensation, are parents of Tarquin's Anacacho Legacy who showjumps under the name of Sunstride, see http://www.freewebs.com/carterequestrianteam/.
"Prince is also the sire of Bushill Spike, Sire of the show jumper Felix. Prince also sired the pony club showjumper Tarquin's Anacacho Challange and Tarquin bred the mare Faneeki's Glorene by Goldmount Challenger to Faneeki's Hocus Pocus (by Forest Hill American King [full brother to sutton's anacacho prince])and out of Suttons Pocahontus and the result was the Toowoomba inter-schools eventing champion Tarquin's Fashion Focus. hope you have enjoyed these little tit bits. "

Look at the power off the back end in Sunstride's jump!! Same as Rocco, Paeon, Ssandro...
Proving the talents of the breed yet again!

General information: Anaconda Stud started at Murrumbateman around 1975 with principals Joe and Son, Rex, Purcell and was disbanded around 1995 (?).Rex and his wife Mary Purcell still own and ride American Saddlebreds today and Tarquin Stud still exists in Queensland.
