• 2010 Bay Colt

• Afire Bey V x Rhegan MF

• Bred by Maplewood Farms

Congratulations to Alison Lammers of British Columbia, Canada, on her purchase of Raconteur. We look forward to seeing the pair in the show ring.

With the birth of Racontuer, we have bred four Afire Bey V colts. By this point we knew the cross of our strong Polish linage with the proven elegance and grace of Afire Bey V’s blood was an excellent combination. We had hoped for a filly to enhance our broodmare band; however, as the days went by our disappointment was replaced with excitement and the anticipation of yet another show colt it appears we have.

Born with markings customized for standing out in the show ring, Raconteur’s extensive shoulder, bend-at-the-knee, long, perfect legs and powerful hind end with a very short back will ultimately find a saddle sitting on a rocket.

Once again, Afire Bey V has infused the show attitude and mentality we find so valuable to add to our bloodlines. As a result, this colt possesses a take-charge mentality. His personal space is large, his ego is large and his apparent talent is large.

Raconteur is also AEPA Yearling Futurity nominated.
