My Saddlebred career started with one very special horse, he became my best friend, my mentor, my companion in hard times...... 

"Tokio Red Sun"

Humble beginnings - Tokio Red Sun (1984-2006)

Bred and raised 100% Namibian, Tokio Red Sun graciously retires to the sunny veldt of the Namibian grassland. From the first time we met, I somehow knew this horse would become my first true equine love.... We soared from success to success, I could truly sit back, relax and enjoy the rack..... Not only did we reap in the ribbons in the Single Harness Classes, we also took numerous places in the 5 Gaited classes and championships. Not many horses are shown in both divisions, but then again no other horse's name was Tokio Red Sun.
 
I salute you my friend and know that you are up there doing your rounds in the big arena... Thank you for your teachings!
