Have some info. He was the horse that was instrumental in the beginning of the National Show Horse Registry. owned by Mr/Mrs Tim Fredericks, Chicago, IL, sold to Lasma Arabians East, KY 1984. He was used on Arabian mares to produce size and elegance, color.

dee, thank you for the information. Would you happen to know anymore about him? Was he a champion show horse? or was it his conformation that he was picked to be sire of NSH's? Also, I read a brief comment about how he had died at a young age, do you know any details? Sorry for all the ??s, just very curious and apparently I'm not very good with a search engine.

At least you have seen a picture, I haven't. I don't even know what color he was, I do know one of his foals, Largo's Legacy was a tobiano who is the sire of my mare, who is a bay. It was mentioned that he did not have many foals because he had died at a young age. I don't know. Maybe someone else on the forum has more information or links for me to check out.
