As with anyone that breeds horses, their girls are very near and dear to their hearts. Our girls are no exception. We've come to love the arabian breed for their beauty, intelligence, personable nature, athletic ability and heart. We are concentrating on acquiring mares by Al-Marah stallions as well as some well-bred polish mares, also sired by some of the best working western stallions in the business. We're so proud to have these girls as a part of our program and we are looking forward to adding a few more to the pot - hopefully soon!
Red Nectar
We acquired "Red" from Al-Marah in June of 2005. She was in foal to AM Power Raid++\ and produced a gorgeous gray colt, DS Powereddy, that you can view under "horses we've sold" on our for sale page. We purchased Red with the dual purpose of getting a good-minded trail horse for our son and a dynamic broodmare for our small, but growing broodmare band. Thus far, Red has proven to be everything we've hoped for and expected from her breeding. Her sire is AM Good Oldboy. Please see all of the foals she has produced for us on our foals page. Red was bred in 2008 to Shiner Dun It for a Half Arabian foal, who is now listed on our for sale page (TCR Alredy Dun It). Red will be bred to Maclintock V in 2010 with the hopes of getting a broodmare to retain for our program.

SAS Arielle
We found "Arielle" in Springfield, Ohio in February of 2008. She was bred by Pam and Eric Stowe of Stowe Arabians. Pam & Eric didn't know what hit them when we called them inquiring about Al-Marah Horatio fillies that they might have for sale. Arielle wasn't for sale at the time, but by the grace of God, Pam explored our website and fell in love with our stallion, Shiner Dun It and the wheels in her head started turning. Arielle was their "dream filly" and they had worked hard and waited a long time to get her. Poor Pam is still somewhat in disbelief that she's agreed to let this filly go, but we here at Trickle Creek Ranch are sure glad she said that she would (and we kept the email documentation to proove it)! 
We just can't get enough of these good-minded Al-Marah horses and Arielle is no exception! She has a gorgeous head, just like her daddy and a killer hip, just like her momma (we like big butts)! We couldn't have asked for more if we pieced her together ourselves! We are proud as heck of this filly and we can't wait to get her into the show ring. Arielle will show in whatever events she excells in, be it reining, cutting or working cow. Our goal with her is to enter her in the Reining Futurity as a 4 & 5 year old at the Scottsdale show and then further her career as a working cow horse and a cutter. After seeing her natural born abilities, we believe she's going to be a superstar! After having a show career, we will retire her to the breeding shed where she'll give us the most exciting foals by our stallion, Shiner Dun It! We can't wait!
Accidentally Alice
We purchased "Alice" as a riding horse for Dan in October of 2007. She's the most mellow horse you'll ever meet! She's the perfect horse for Dan as she comes with 18 months of professional reining training from Crystal McNutt and Thiago Sobral, so she is ready to go for anything! She is a very thick & chunky horse and most people that see her for the first time do a double-take and question again whether or not she is a purebred. Most people think she is a quarter horse until they see her profile - then it's obvious she's an Arab!.
Our son, Camden, showed Alice in a few sport horse in hand classes. They showed together at the Saguaro Classic in December 2008 and came out with a 3rd place! Not bad for their first time out! Alice also placed 3rd in the open class with Jackie Alkin. We are very proud of her!
Alice also recently went to Flagstaff, AZ for her first team sorting event with Stacey. They took home $200 and the first place in their class! Alice is quite the versitile individual and we can't wait to get her in foal to Shiner in 2010!
Dan has been tinkering with Alice and the idea of some team penning and sorting - but just for fun - he isn't interested in the show circuit. Alice has an impecable pedigree on her and she will fit very nicely into our breeding program with her heritage being full of great athletes and champions. We are currently having Alice evaluated at Royal Salute with Jackie Alkin as a possible jumping candidate. After her evaluation period, we'll be sure to post as to whether or not she'll be remaining with Jackie for some show jumping training! Stay tuned!

Kaibars Lovleo
"Love", or "Miss Lovely" as we often refer to her, is our black half-arabian mare. Her sire, Triple A Kaibarr, was one of the greatest working cow horses ever and Love's dam comes from the lines of the great AQHA stallions Dash For Cash and Easy Jet! She was professionally trained by Tony Boit for reining and we have been proud to have her in our barn. She has been shown successfully in reining, taking reserve at the class A show level. She was also shown in the working cow horse division at the Scottsdale show in 2007, placing 3rd in her AOTR class. We were VERY proud of her as this was her first class ever in the working cow division! More recently, she has been a money-earner at some team sorting events, winning in several events. She is the definition of athleticism and a total sweetheart to boot! We are expecting her foal by Kakhem Sahib+/ by 4/5/10 and we are excited to see what she produces as this will be her first foal! She is sure to produce a dynamite working western foal with him!
