About
ANZA
PADRON: |
“I’ve
found
that
in a
lot
of cases,
the
dam’s
tail
female
line
produces
the
motion
in an
individual,
while
the
tail
female
of the
sire
increases
the
odds
of getting
the ‘look’. Padron
is about
the
most
beautiful
thing
you’ve
ever
laid
eyes
on;
ideally,
if you
cross
that
horse
with
one
with
extreme
motion,
you
get
something
like
what
happened
in Anza
Padron. If
you
then
use
a tail
female
line
with
a lot
of athletic
ability
to cross
on Anza
Padron,
you
should
get
the
motion,
but
maintain
the
prettiness.
That’s
what
everyone
wants
-- a
beautiful,
beautiful
horse
that
can
trot”.
Bill Rodgers, Trainer

“It’s
extremely
unusual
in an
English
performance
class
to see
an Arabian
horse
with
so much
quality
and
type,
who
looks
like
an Arabian
horse,
and
can
be so
athletic
on all
four
legs”. “He
has
so much
elevation
and
strength
from
behind,
with
a lot
of expression
and
an absolutely
free
shoulder. It’s
highly
unusual
to see
that,
and
obviously,
that’s
what
we’re
all
breeding
for. This
horse
has
all
of these
qualities”.
Duane Esser, Trainer
and 2004 US Nationals
Judge |

“He
sits
down
on his
hocks
and
gets
great.
Anza
is making
a great
cross
with
the
half-Arabians
as well. Even
there,
they
want
those
same
set
of hocks. We
all
know
in the
industry
today
that
we need
a horse
with
better
hocks,
and
Anza
Padron
is passing
that
on to
his
offspring”.
Jim Stachowski,
trainer/ Stachowski Farms |

“He
has
an absolutely
incredible
tail
carriage. If
you
want
a better
tail
and
a lot
of quality,
you’ll have
to breed
to something
like
Anza
to get
it. Anza Padron’s a great answer to all of the Hucklebey Berry mares that we have, the Afire Bey V daughters, the Apollo daughters, the Bask Afire daughters — the whole slew of Huckleberry Bey-bred mares that are out there to be bred.”
Shawn Stachowski, National
Champion rider and breeder |
|
“We
believe
that
Anza’s
ability
to pass
on greatness
comes
from
both
his
sire
and
his
dam. We
love
everything
about
him
except
one
thing — the
ownership. We
wish
he were
ours”.
David Boggs, trainer / Midwest
Arabians |

“The
first
thing
Anza
Padron
did
when
I saw
him
come
out
of his
stall
was
to drop his
rear
end
and
motor
on.
To some
degree,
you
can
train
them
to do
that — but
for
Anza,
it was
natural. All
that
impulsion
from
the
back
end
was
phenomenal.
He has
tremendous
width
between
the
eyes,
which
we don’t
see
much
of any
more. And
tiny
little
ears,
the
big
bone
-- a
beautifully
classic
Arabian
head.
This
is a
horse
that
you
want
to put
a saddle
and
ride”
Pam Bauerline, breeder |

“Anza
is really,
really
mellow
and
kind,
but
he’s
all
show
horse. The
minute you
turn
him
loose,
he ‘turns
on’. He’s
all
about
his
job”.
Stuart
Vesty,
Equine
Photographer |
|
“There’s
a lot
of power
there,
but
he’s
generous,
kind,
and fun
to ride. I
wish
everybody
could
have
the
opportunity
to ride
an Anza
Padron”.
Mike Clark, Management,
Stachowski Farm, Inc. |

(when he just started in training): “They turned him loose, and he was naturally gifted. He was set high in his shoulder, he moved off all four corners and he liked going forward”.

“ Twenty
years
ago
I had
a dream
about
a red
horse. It
wasn’t
until
a couple
of years
ago
that
I connected
that
red
horse
in the
dream
with
the
red
Anza
Padron. By
that
time,
I’d
already
begun
to believe
that
Anza
could
make
a valuable
contribution
to the
Arabian
breed,
and
that
it was
his
destiny
to do
so”. “What
a privilege
it has
been
to own
Anza. It’s
thrilling
and
gratifying
to watch
as he
imprints
offspring
his
with
physical
traits,
athleticism,
disposition
-- and
trainability.”
Margo Spitz Marbut,
owner of Anza Padron |

“Anza
on Fire

She is our new little "star" --

"We've
been
blessed
not
only
with
a truly
handsome
colt
from
Anza
Padron,
but
also
with
a filly
who
is a
full
sister
to our
colt.
Both
are
outstanding
examples
of Anza
Padron
qualities.
We could
not
be more
pleased
with
our
decision
to breed
our
mare,
EA Sterlin
Doll,
to Anza."

“Our
brand
new
bay
Anza
colt
is all
legs
and
fabulous!
He doesn't
need
a bridle........he
appears
to be
bridled
already <smile> and
he certainly
THINKS he is ready for
the big ring!! This,
not so little man, is
JUST what I had hoped
we would get and we
are thrilled!! He is
bold and fearless
but VERY sweet. I know
that we in the "Anza
family" will be
VERY proud of in in
the future. Your superior
stallion has shown himself
to be a
great producer of top
quality right here in
our barn! Thanks to
all of you who brought
him "out" to
share with us. ...the
thought of your incomparable
Anza being in our barn
now, in the form of
our colt, makes my heart
swell with joy. We are
so blessed. He is out
of GAF Khloe Rae, a
mare we own
in partnership with
friends, making him
double Padron as well.
Not a bad start in life!

“Anzamation
is a
dream
come
true.
Conformation,
class,
disposition
,athleticism
and
beauty
have
culminated
in one
wonderful
colt
we call "Buster".
I couldn't
be more
please
with
the
cross
of Anza
Padron
and
my Bey
Shah
bred
mare.
It's
a golden
cross.
We expect
great
things
from
him!!”

“Anzavalon
(Anza
Padron
x Garland
Afire)
is the
most
exquisite
foal
I have
ever
seen!
He is
chestnut
with
4 high
whites
and
an-off
center
blaze — just
like
Anza
and
Padron.
This
colt
walks
around
with
his
head
straight
up every
where
he goes.
When
he is
outside
and
gets
fired
up that
tail
goes
straight
up along
with
his
nose
and
his
feet
look
like
they
are
spring-loaded.
Anzavalon
has
brought
so much
joy
to all
of our
lives
that
I wouldn’t
have
thought
possible.
My mother
would
have
gone
totally
nuts
over
this
colt.
I am most definitely
interested in breeding
Garland Afire back to
Anza next spring!”

About
Anza
Ramona: |
“ I
have
pictures
of her
as a
yearling
and
she
was
about
as perfect
as filly
as you
can
imagine. She
was
real
level
over
her
top
and
she
had
an extremely
long
neck — and
I mean
long
like
you
never
saw;
it was
a pencil
throat. Not
only
was
she
by Eter,
but
she
went
back
to Bataan
and
some
good
moving
Kellogg
horses”.

“She
was
incredibly
beautiful
and
extremely
athletic”.

About
Padron: |
“I
believe
that
if he
had
been
trained
for
performance
before
halter,
he would
have
been
a champion
English
Pleasure
horse. He
had
incredible
motion
off
both
sides.”
