In 2009, Tobasco demonstrated his talent for dressage, consistently scoring over 60 in First Level tests, always finishing as Reserve Champion or Champion. His foals have correct conformation, good bone, superb temperaments and a willingness to please. In 2016 was sold to Doug & Deb King of Ravine Ranch.

SAM STANLEY
…a farmer from Kent, England, He served in the British artillery in World War 1 purchasing and training remounts for the army.  In Canada this background served him well in choosing and breeding good young horses.  He was President of the Canadian Hunter Improvement Society in the early ’60s when he helped to develop the first Breeder Show in 1965. Sam stood approved stallions, War Doe, Lafite, My Kingdom, Spun Gold, Bengal and Sailor’s Axe.  He donated War Doe and Lafite, to the Society to be available at a reasonable fee to breeders.  Later the Society gave them back to him.  He was always generous with his time and served as an inspector for decades.
One of the best horses bred by Sam Stanley’s was Mapleleigh (First Secretary-Bomber Pride) who was a top performer on the Canadian International Jumping team with Tom Gayford

#120 SILENT SALESMAN

In 1935 a trophy was created in the form of a stature designed by a group of Canadian Hunter Society Directors. After much discussion, they agreed on an ideal horse “for general utility” and a clay model was completed by sculptor Muriel Lamont. From this mold, bronzed statuettes 12 inches high were cast. The statuettes were used as trophies for brood mare classes in widespread areas of the country. The intention was that they would serve as “silent salesmen” of type” for breeders to see the desired Canadian Hunter conformation.
