Ridgewood says goodbye to our beloved

CBMF Bond Girl

(GLB Bell Pepper x Moneypenny, by Carlyle Command)

We could not resist this upheaded young mare by Ann Hailey's good son of WC HVK Bell Flaire. She is now getting into her routine under the watchful eye of Bob Kellert at The River's Edge in preparation for her show ring debut.

CBMF Fire And Ice

(HVK Bell Flaire x HVK March Fire, by HVK Fieldmarch)

Another Copper Dragon prize, we are very excited about the foal she will produce next year by DBA STREET TALK (Serenity Masterpiece x Kinglow's Cherish), who does not stand to the public. Noble Flaire and Vigilmarch has been a successful cross for Kohler Stables, and we believe this upheaded mare will make great contributions to the RWF stock.

CBMF Song And Dance

(HRH Legend Command x RRG Flash Dance, by Cedar CreekHarlequin)

Purchased to be Julie's show horse, we are ecstatic about this neat young mare! Julie has already been in the saddle and declares this a very smart purchase by her astute partner. She is out of the dam of Ariel (by War And Peace), who has produced CBMF Audacious, as well as Tribecca, who is the dam of the 2005 WC Three Year Old Park Saddle WWW Virtual Reality. Watch for Julie and Song in the ring this year in both saddle and harness.

LIV Reality Star

(WWW Reality Check Dot Com x OH Starlight, by Van Lu Starbuck)

This talented young mare is very athletic and features very difficult breeding to find. We felt her greatest contribution would be in the breeding shed, and so we are detouring her show ring career and she will be put in foal to WC STAND AND DELIVER (Queen's Vanity Flaire x NBN At Your Command) for her first foal to arrive in 2008.

CBMF Embryo Opportunity

(DBA Street Talk x MEM So Emotional, Futurity French Command)

We are elated that we were able to secure our choice of mare and stallion to take advantage of such a wonderful offering by Ann Hailey and the Copper Beech clan.

Raintree Joyous

(Astronomicallee x FCF Lalique, by Waseeka's Skylark)

When we saw this video clip of Joyous, we just had to have her! And although she has all the talent in the world to begin a notable show career, we felt her calling will be as a producer of World Champions. To that end, she has been booked to the court of Minion Millennium for 2007 and we can hardly wait to see our results. Special thanks to Barb Rudicel who bred and sold this incredible mare to us, and to John and Belle Hufferd of Triumph Stables who so professionally represented Joyous.

Cedar Creek Valkyrie

(Tedwin Topic x Cedar Creek Jasmine, by I Will Command)

A full sister to World Champion Cedar Creek Pazazz, this recent purchase from Copper Beech Morgan Farm is also a maternal sister to World Champion Cedar Creek With Bells On, Cedar Creek Arabella and Cedar Creek Cariad. She had not even set foot on RWF soil when Charles Buller decided he absolutely had to have her. So our new purchase becomes his new purchase!

CBMF Silhouette

(Ben's Rhapsody x HVK Endowed, by HVK Bold Look)

We were thrilled with our recent acquisition from the Copper Beech breeding program, and then Jack began to visit The River's Edge and simply fell head over heels for this elegant 3 yr old mare, just like we did! Silhouette will remain in training at The River's Edge under the direction of Bob Kellert and Mary Cockriel, who also represented both parties in this sale.
