While hunting for Kim's next superstar, we came across this horse. Although he was too green over fences for what Kim wanted, something drew me to him. When his owner called, desperate to find a situation for him as she was leaving for college shortly, I offered to take him here to help her find a home for him. We fell in love with him right away - he was so similar to Surprise in appearance and movement, how could we not love him?

He had hada short racing career, and a brief stint as a dressage horse, so naturally, we started teaching him how to be a hunter. He has energy galore, outrageous movement, and is my favorite trail horse!

Pamela fell for him as quickly as we did and bought him for herself. What fun for her to have a horse she can ride again! With her busy schedule, she doesn't get much time to ride, but makes the most of her visits by stuffing him with carrots. She shows him herself too.

At the first Eastern Amateur Arabian Circuit show, Braveheart blew us all away by being named Champion in the Working Hunter Division! He also won his Novice Hunter Pleasure class and pinned well in the other hack classes, including a second in Hunter Hack out of more than 20 horses!

The second day of the show, he was Reserve Champion in Working Hunter; won the Rookie Horse Hunter Pleasure class, pinned fourth in Adult Hunter Pleasure and topped it all off by winning the Hunter Pleasure Championship!!!! We were all so proud of him!
