Solo
1998 Dark Bay Domestic Arabian Stallion, Standing 16.1hh
Competing in Halter/All areas of Western/Liberty/Flat Racing
From Maria
Solo is the first Arabian we bred after Sensation and the Apache's Magic twins. Its years ago now since we first bred him, and he is very special. He's the first ever Soho foal and son ever bred. It doesn't seem like we have been in SIM long yet Solo here is proof we have been here for ages. He's a true gentleman and does credit to his sire who belonged to one of our closest friends in SIM. His dam was a gorgeous black mare whom never really took to the showring but instead showed incredible talent as a broodmare which Solo proves. Soho showed incredible versitility as he showed in english, western, in-hand, at liberty, and raced during his career! We are positive Solo shares this versitility but have decided to focus him on a few special areas; in-hand, at liberty, racing, and western. Solo is a natural cow horse, he is breathtaking to watch round up our cattle at Avalon, and is always showing the other horses what to do. He's pretty much fearless and a working western horse, but also holds this classy refined quality of an in-hand Arabian halter horse. Its incredible that he can switch between the two, and it just goes to show how intelligent and eager to please he is. He loves working, he naturally shows himself off well, and is a true gentleman. Even when its mating season Solo rarely ever acts up. He's like a gelding in temprement really, and always has this hypnotic spring in his step. He never ever gets depressed. Infact he is happy nearly all the time. When Solo starts his breeding career we know he'll produce such lovely temprement babies that'll be a joy to work with. We are so blessed to have him here at Akmal and throughout his life he has never changed hands. We highly doubt that'll ever happen.
