Drat. So, another question: whenever you do stallion approvals, what if her sire gets approved? Is she eligible to be approved in the future? Also, when I eventually breed her - if I breed her to a warmblood stallion, would any foals be eligible for approval?
Don't know if any of these picture links actually work, sorry - if they have pictures, that's where they're supposed to be.
Horse Name: SS Immagin That Nite
Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 2002
Breed: Arabian
Height: 15.0
Discipline(s) & Levels: Dressage (fourth level), hunters (pre-green)
Sire: SS Immagin That
Sire's Pedigree: *Mag x *Antina
Dam: Moonlite Nite
Dam's Pedigree: Unknown (HF create)
Description: Immagin That Nite was the first foal of her sire, SS Immagin That. Immagin That is based off the late stallion Immagin, whom I worked with. Immagin That Nite has inherited the thick build of her Russian Arabian sire, but also his elegant gaits. She’s out of a mare with an unknown pedigree, Moonlite Nite, who was a fairly successful broodmare for me in HF, also producing SS Aabsolut Nite. I had sold Immagin That Nite and reclaimed her shortly before ER’s founding, so I’m not sure what her full show record is anymore, but I know she’s always been quite successful as a dressage competitor and will be exclusively competing in that from now on, though she’s also competed in some very low hunters.

Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 1998
Breed: Thoroughbred
Height: 16.1
Discipline(s) & Levels: Eventing (advanced)
Sire: One Summer Night
Sire's Pedigree:
Dam: Star Surprise
Dam's Pedigree:
Description: One Starry Night has been with me for about eight years now. She was originally bred in Hay!Land, where her sire was known for being a really good sire of sporthorses. I acquired a half-brother to her who was also a really excellent sporthorse, so I would say their dam was probably of quality too, although I don’t know of any further pedigree. Starry has been a top class eventer for me for years, and won the 2007 Rolex Three-Day Event. I’ve also bred a few foals from her (two half-Arabians, SS Aabsolut Star and SS Celestyna, and two pure TBs, SS Undeniable Star and SS Triumphant Night) who seem to be turning into really nice sporthorses themselves.

starlightstables.cwahi.net/horses/ssonestarrynight.png Horse Name: SS Call Me Kate
Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 1996
Breed: Thoroughbred
Height: 15.3
Discipline(s) & Levels: Hunters (small juniors when possible, regular otherwise)
Sire: Call Me Please
Sire's Pedigree: Call of the Wild (Wild One x Operator) x Pleaseandthankyou (Pretty Please x Miss Manners)
Dam: Katelynn
Dam's Pedigree: Grasshopper (Straight Shooter x Katydid) x Lady Lynn (Flynn's Man x Royalty)
Description: I’ve owned Call for about nine years. She originated in Hay!Land where she was a create. I took her from having the EEq. title (the equivalent of Ch.) to being the second-highest pointed horse in the entire game (the only one higher than her was a Quarter Horse stallion who competed in Western events). That game had money involved and at one point I sold a breeding to her for $10,250, whereas the typical fee for a mare tended to be around $2000. She’s had a few foals, mostly from racing sires, but as I know she’s produced some tremendous sporthorse foals in the past I’d like to get her doing that again.

Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 1997
Breed: Holsteiner
Height: 16.1
Discipline(s) & Levels: Hunters (regular)
Sire: Löwe Hertz
Sire's Pedigree: Löwe III x Lieben Sie Mich
Dam: Fairies In The Woods
Dam's Pedigree: Woodland Delight x Fee Escuiben
Description: I no longer have Dandelion’s full record, but I do know that she’s actually HOF Dandelion. She spent much of her career competing in lower-level hunter and dressage, but since I’ve eliminated dressage I’ve been able to bring her up to regular hunters, where she’s excelled. Dandelion has produced two foals, SS Flower Child (2002 half-Arabian by SS Aabsolutli) and SS Still Life (2005 by Kon Artis).

starlightstables.cwahi.net/horses/dandelion.pngHorse Name: SS Black On White
Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 1996
Breed: Oldenburg
Height: 17.0
Discipline(s) & Levels: Jumpers (trained to Grand Prix); dressage (second level); eventing (novice)
Sire: Contango
Sire's Pedigree: Contender (Calypso II x Gofine) x Adisa III (Kronprinz x Adisa)
Dam: Imago
Dam's Pedigree: Samber (Pericles x Tina D) x Ruth (Leander x Derlida)
Description: I don’t know much about warmblood pedigrees, but I believe Black On White has a fairly good one. She’s a black tobiano mare, so she’s easy to spot. When I originally bought her about seven years ago, I was looking for a mare who was highly trained in jumping, and I believe she was level 8 at the time. I got her up to Grand Prix, but then I decided to expand her repertoire. She began competing in introductory dressage, but quickly dominated the competition to such an extent that I had to bring her to a higher level. When she was competing in first level on a regular basis, and continued to compete in high-level jumping events, I thought I’d see if she was able to handle a cross-country course – she turned out to be excellent at that as well. I continue to compete with her in higher-level jumping events, but we’ve scaled the frequency back and instead have been entering her in events, where she’s currently competing at the novice level. I’ve toyed with the idea of entering her full-time into events, but I don’t think she’ll progress much farther anyway. She has produced one foal, SS Cookies and Cream (2005, Corlando).

Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 2005
Breed: Oldenburg
Height: 16.2
Discipline(s) & Levels: Jumpers (Level One); dressage (training)
Sire: Corlando
Sire's Pedigree: Calypso II (Cor De La Bryere x Tabelle) x Navenna (Rinaldo x Goldige)
Dam: SS Black On White
Dam's Pedigree: Contango (Contender x Adisa III) x Imago (Samber x Ruth)
Description: SS Cookies and Cream is a black tobiano mare, like her dam. Due to her young age she hasn’t progressed very far, but she’s been showing amazing talent in both dressage and jumping. I think she’s going to progress further as a jumper, but we’ve been competing her in both to see where she ends up.

Owner: Kate
Barn: Starlight Stables
YOB: 2005
Breed: Holsteiner
Height: 16.0
Discipline(s) & Levels: Hunters (pre-green); dressage (training)
Sire: Kon Artis
Sire's Pedigree: Unknown (HF horse)
Dam: Dandelion
Dam's Pedigree: Löwe Hertz (Löwe III x Lieben Sie Mich) x Fairies In The Woods (Woodland Delight x Fee Escuiben)
Description: Still Life is the second foal of her dam and seems to take after her in terms of talent. I think she’s going to be more dressage-inclined but that’s going to be determined as she progresses in training. She’s a very clean-lined mare with a lot of natural grace.
