Pleasantstone Sacagawea 5-01 (CS Braveheart X CS Marlyn)

                 This filly is special to us not only because she is 30/22nds Arabian blood and a rare overo marked Pinto Arabian but also because she is line bred Madron. (pictured below) Madron's offspring are a valued part of  Pleasantstone's breeding stock. They continue the valuable tail female line of Enshalla Jaisa**. Madron's full sister, Life's Magic** (both Madron and Life’s Magic were bred by Julie Mahoney) produced Enchanter Magic, Canadian National Champion Stallion, Brazilian National Jr. Champion Stallion, and United States Reserve National Champion ( at Midwest Arabians.) Madron, now deceased, pictured below.

We are proud to be part of such beautiful and successful Arabian bloodlines and CS Sacagawea will be a very proponent brood matron as well as show and pleasure mare. The broodmare is truly the heart of a breeding program or as the name "foundation" implies, the solid groundwork supporting everything. The foundation broodmare is the "bottom" upon which anything stands. We have either bred our mare foundation stock over many long years or sought out the combination we desired for our breeding program from outstanding individual breeding programs. CS Marlyn, the dam of Sacagawea is one of these important foundation mares.

In breeding CS Braveheart (Madron X Mantha’s Ms Panda) to Marlyn (Madron X Misha Adana) we linebred to get Pleasantstone Sacagawea. Studies have proven that out-crossing and the larger gene pool will produce offspring enhanced with hyper-vigor, combined with line breeding to strengthen specific desired characteristics.  In the Madron bloodline we saw and sought to breed in these special characteristics. The knowledge of learning how to blend desirable characteristics with success is the true "art" of breeding. With Sacagawea we have accomplished our breeding goal to fix in these desired traits. To breed her on to a worthy stallion would be a dream come true. If bred to the right black Arabian stallion it is very likely that Sacagawea could produce a high percentage Arabian blood black and white pinto!…. breeding like this takes a lot of time and is extremely valuable to the pinto Arabian or pintabian breeder.

Pleasantstone  Sacagawea is elegant like her sire CS Braveheart (above) and exceptionally pretty like her dam CS Marlyn (now proudly owned and shown by Dawn Hallock, Pa.)  Saca is quite an athlete and moves with supple grace. With a good and able trainer nothing will stop her from being a beautiful and ‘DOable’ mount. Her movement is precise and she is as a high quality vehicle with tremendous shocks on her fluid far reaching steps. She is very quick and could be used as a confident swift cow pony if her new owner has some ranch work to accomplish. She would also make a stunning dressage mount. Since she moves so well, with grace and ease. She likes to go… I could also see her as a capable endurance horse as well.

The Arabian is known for the quality of bone, which is as dense as ivory, the short, wide tapering concave skull, with seemingly larger brain than usual, large circular eye sockets and fewer vertebrae in the back and tail. The Arabians' naturally higher head carriage opens up the breathing passage and along with its expansive nostrils and large windpipe allows greater oxygen intake. The high held tail is a natural cooling system in warm weather. Because the Bedouins lived in the desert, it was necessary to breed horses for strength and endurance. The beautiful Arabian type must have been developed for practical reasons. Elegance in appearance should never be lost sight of, as it is indicative of the subtle strength peculiar to the desert breed. The Arabian possesses a smoothly muscled body whose form is essentially one of utility. These qualities contributed to the overall character, intelligence and graceful symmetry of the Arabian horse. Pleasantstone  Sacagawea has these Arabian qualities from her soft silken muzzle to the tip of her high-flying tail.
