Rudolph's Golden Comanche
ASPC / AMHR
2008 ASPC Superior Sire
2009 AMHR Superior Sire
2013 ASPC Double Superior Sire
As we were beginning our search for an ASPC/AMHR herd sire in early 2000, we always had Comanche (or "Mr. Ed" as he was known) in mind, and could never find any colt we liked quite as well. In 2002, Kevin & Nina Rudolph gave us the incredible opportunity to buy Comanche, for which we have been forever grateful.
Over the next few years, Comanche quickly became our main herd sire. His foals competed very successfully in the Classic and Foundation Shetland divisions, as well as in AMHR.
Alas, in December 2009 we were devastated to learn that Comanche had developed an aggresive form of cancer, and lost him shortly thereafter. We didn't get to spend near enough time enjoying this fantastic little pony, but are very thankful to have several sons & daughters to remind us of him.
Rhapsody's Reign Man
One of Comanche's first foals for our farm, Reign Man has gone on to create his own dynasty..
Rhapsody's Aztec Gold
Originally shown in the Classic Shetland division, Aztec was later hardshipped into AMHR and selected as the 2010 AMHR National Grand Champion Stallion (Over).
Rhapsody's Ribbonz & Pearlz
Like her full brother Reign Man, Pearlz was a phenomenal show horse, and like her sire, left us far too soon.
Rhapsody's Red Cloud
Red Cloud is an exceptional show gelding, earning many titles in Shetland as well as AMHR shows.
Rhapsody's Latin Tango
Winning a variety of national titles in AMHR, Tango is one of a few Comanche colts that matured under 34 inches and was later hardshipped into AMHA.
Rhapsody's Golden Topaz
Topaz is a stunning ASPC/AMHR palomino daughter of Comanche with a long show record.
One of Comanche's very last daughters, we were thrilled to see Misty be pinned the Grand Champion Foundation Mare at the 2011 Shetland Congress.
