Quattro B and Argentinus were
show jumpers, and both sired dressage horses as
well as show jumpers. Canadian team jumper,
Special Ed, is also by Argentinus.
-
“My Quarter Horse?” said his
rider, Evi Strasser, in jest. “He’s perfect! The
driver just has to be on. He’s opinionated about
what he wants, laid back in the barn and
electric in the ring. I guess he saves his
energy. He doesn’t like too much warming up
before a class. He likes steady and quiet in the
morning.
-
“He’s a big moving horse, and
he’ll do it if I prepare him right. He doesn’t
have any movements that are difficult and he
likes to work."
-
I like it when it feels like
Quantum does it by himself – because he wants to
do it – it’s magic and you remember it for a
long time. It is the ultimate feeling!”
