We’ve had a small crop of 7 this year but they’re all stunning. 5 Girls and 2 Boys!! Crias are from Barnabus as well as our first crias from Xanadu P. Resolute (Barnabus x Timoteo line mom) + AAA Futurity fawn color champion, PC Running Late.   Xanadu P Millefiori (“Flora”) Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire: Maple Brook Barnabus Dam: Xanadu P. Trousseau         [Presidio Daughter] Her name means “a thousand flowers” and that’s what we thought of when we first saw this exquisite fleece. Flora is beige to light fawn and another near- perfect result of our “Magical Match” with Presidio girls and Barnabus. Her full brother, Xanadu P. Mistral, is a multiple blue ribbon winner and multiple champion including 2010 Great Western show and 1st at the ’10 AAA Futurity.   Xanadu Clandestine Clandestine is now owned by Jeri and Jerry Johnson of Sand Creek Criations and Sandra and Norm Johnson of Chimera Ranch.   Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire: Maple Brook Barnabus Dam: Walls Edge Autumn         [Presidio Daughter] Clandestine just took reserve champion at the 2010 MoPaca Show.  We couldn’t be more pleased.  Autumn’s mom is a color champ, Show Me the Money daughter-Royal Fawn G-Dtr. This girl’s fleece is fine and dense with  great character and handle.   Xanadu P Cadeau Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire: Maple Brook Barnabus Dam: Xanadu P. Donno Bello         [Presidio Daughter] OK, when we bred for our 5th full sibling, we had a good idea of what to expect.  Still, Cadeau is a treat. Her name means “gift” in French. She’s full sister to AAA Futurity blue ribbon winners Xanadu P. Au Courant, Cadenza and Cachet, and her full brother Concerto stands at stud at Spirit Wind Farm in NY. Granddam, Snowmass Sonata, mom, Donno Bello and 2 of her 3 full sisters are in our foundation herd. Cadenza is now owned by Jennifer and Ian Lutz of Cas-Cad-Nac Farm.   Xanadu P. Oberon Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire: Xanadu P Resolute Dam:  Snowmass Messiah’s Angel (Snowmass Messiah’s daughter) Obie is our first Resolute cria and his mom is our Snowmass Messiah girl. We're very pleased.  He’s already living up to his pedigree with sensational fineness in his bright, dense fleece.   Xanadu P. Esprit Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire: Maple Brook Barnabus Dam: Snowmass Sonata Third full sibling from this pairing and another future champion.  Esprit is full sister to AOBA blue ribbon winner, Xanadu P. Enchante,  and GWAS blue ribbon winner, Xanadu P, Encanto. She’s a stunning beige girl who is guaranteed a spot in our Barnabus “Get of Sire” group   Xanadu P. Lyric Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire: Xanadu P Resolute Dam: Hummingherd’s Delicious Lyric arrived a bit early and started out a bit small, but he’s been catching up fast. He’s a match between our terrific Barnabus son and a beautiful girl we purchased at the ’08 Futurity auction. She brings the genetics of her grandsires Accoyos Augusto and Pachacutti and Hemingway to our breeding program.  We’re very pleased with her first boy. Xanadu P. Allure   Click on the thumbnails  to see a larger view. Sire:  PC Running Late Dam:  Xanadu P. Au Courant (Barnabus Girl-Presidio G-Dtr) Our last cria of ’09 is a little white treasure.  She’s very dense and fine, fine, fine. Just what we breed for. She brings together Barnabus and Presidio from her champion dam, and the fabulous Accoyo Titan line from her AAA color champion sire. Allure is already a blue ribbon winner and will be in our fall show string.
