Benjamin was inported from the UK in 2001 as a weanling. His sire was a bay tobiano and his dam is a black tobiano. If you are looking for great temperment to breed to your mare then STOP LOOKING. Benjamin is a puppy dog. I body clipped him without a halter on and he just stood there didn't move until I was finished and that was the first time ever being clipped. He is a dream to work around he settles mares quickly and easily. If you are looking for feathers and long flowing mane then you have found him. Benjamin passes his temperment onto his foals. He was on the cover of the Equine Journal in July 2008 and will be back in their Romance issue. He is being trained in dressage now so book early for 2009 season.
