Sassha was purchased as a junior horse and safely and successfully carried juniors in endurance and NATRC. She is a great open NATRC horse and her AERC record can be viewed HERE. Sassha has great conformation and is built to carry heavyweight riders too.


Sassha won High-Point Arabian and Sweeps in her Open division at the RAHA Ralley NATRC ride in Oct. 2008. Her first ride back since having a foal. The week after, she did the Grand Canyon XP 50.

Sassha had a busy 2009 ride season and the highlight was a 2009 Tevis completion!

OM EL SALAAM

AHA # 0610579

2004 Grey Gelding

Om El Shahmaan x Om El Saari

Salaam was purchased from the world famous breeding operation of Om El Arab International.

He is everything Allan was looking for; excellent

disposition and conformation, sweepstakes, and great big, hard hoofs!! Salaam is currently in dressage training and also being ridden on trails by Allan. 

Salaam has completed one NATRC ride and two 25 mile LD endurance rides. He did awesome! He’s the kind of horse who drinks at every stop and keeps drinking as other horses trot by. You can’t train that !!!
