Red Rock Arabians purchased *Paarden+ in 1988 after leasing him from Dean and Mary Lou Hindal for one year. He was a dream come true as he encompassed all of the qualities Red Rock Arabians strives for: beauty, conformation, athletic ability, and an excellent disposition.
Born in Zijtaart, Netherlands on May 12, 1979, *Paarden+ was bred by M. Blaauwhof Van Hellenberg Hubar. Pedigree. Bob Stratmore, who also imported *Paarden+'s 7/8ths brother, *Padron, brought him to the United States. Shortly thereafter, Dean and Mary Lou Hindal purchased *Paarden+. He had a short halter career with Brad Gallun of Bethesda Farms, winning various California shows as a yearling. At two, *Paarden+ was put into training with Jerry McRae of O'Mac Stables, who showed him in Open Western Pleasure. Lisa Hindal-Lenzen also showed him in Western Pleasure AOTR. In 1988, Larry and Shirley Ellis purchased *Paarden+; their daughter Ann showed him in Western Pleasure JOTR.
*Paarden+ and Ann
