We are sad to announce the death of our Matriarch, FFC Raritee, on the 10th of March.
FFC Raritee was a 31 year old daughter of FFC Geynius+/ and out of our last matriarch, Al-Marah Countess Anne Tee.
FFC Raritee was one of the sweetest mares on the farm, and nicknamed "Grammy" by many that met her as we own many of her grandbabies and she has left a huge impact on our farm, and a huge hole in our herd.
Raritee had 9 foals for us, 1 magnificent stallion, 4 amazing geldings and 4 splendid mares. She is an Aristocrat AHA Mare, just liker her dam. Raritee is survived by:
FFC Dundee++ - By *Dandaloo Kadet - Dundee is a proven stud and show horse and our resident and main stallion at the farm. He was Top 3 and Top 4 at the Region 15 Championship in 2010 at In Hand and Amateur In Hand. In 2012, 2 years later, he went back to the Region 15 Championships and was Champion Arabian SHIH ATH twice and Sport Horse Stallions In Hand Champion. He was also top 4 in Arabian Dressage Training LEvel ATR. However, that wasn't enough for our Dundee, his next major show was the 2013 Sport Horse National Championship, where he was RESERVE CHAMPION in SHIH Stallions and Top 10 in SHIS Amateaur Championship.
Dundee has sired four foals for us: FFC Piccadillee (mare), FFC Brumbee (gelding), and his two yearlings: FFC Joanna Gee (filly) and FFC Rossinee (C**t). Brumbee was Top 10 at the 2013 SPort Horse National Champions for 2YO SHIH Geldings. Currently he is being ridden in endurance, and was 8th place in the 50 Mile TAke No Prisoners Ride, also winning the High Vet Score and the Best Conditioned awards!
FFC Ahrare++ - By Ahmeetz - Ahrare is a quite gorgeous mare who we are glad to have here to hopefully take over her mother's legacy. Ahrare is a Legion of Merit winner. In 2007 she was Top 3 in the SHIH Mares ATH at the Region 15 Championship. She went back in 2008 and came in Top 3 again in the same place, Top 5 in SHIH Mares and Top 3 in SHUS ATR Championship classes. Her last show for us was at the 2009 East Coast Championship, where she was Champion SHIH Mares. She also competed at Training and First Level Dressage regularly.
Ahrare has had only two foals for us, FFC Aruba, a 2011 mare by RS Sea Raider and her current filly she just gave birth to in February who's currently unnamed.
FFC Teetania - By SSA Csea Dream+ - Teetania competed in a few shows in Sport Horse in Hand classes. She has had three foals, a gelding, Al-Marah Egret, and two fillies, FFC Quetee and FFC Theiah.
FFC Serendipitee - By *Seffer - Sera competed in In Hand SHIH and also Dressage classes. She has had one foal for us, a 2008 gelding by Beau Quest named FFC Quixotee.
FFC Anzac - By *Dandaloo Kadet - Zac is Dundee's full brother, a gelding who went to the 2012 Region 15 Championship and placed Top 5 in two Geldings In-Hand classes and Top 3 in another.
FFC Sovereigntee - By Beau Quest - Rainy is another gelding who has also competed in SHIH at a few shows.
FFC Just Joey, FFC Royaltee and FFC Teeah are Raritee's other foals, all which are no longer owned by Fairfield.
Raritee sure has left behind a legacy of amazing horses to follow in her footsteps, but they have large hooves to fill, and no one will ever be able to replace her fully.
We miss you Raritee, March 12, 1987-March 10, 2018.
