Sigar's sire, Safeen (Ibn Safinaz x Abitibi Madeena x Imperial Madheen) is a 1991 Straight Egyptian Arabian owned by K.Z. Arabians in Israel. As a yearling and 2 year old, Safeen earned numerous regional halter championships and reserve championships. His Egyptian Event winnings include: Top Five 2-year old Futurity Colt and Champion Extended Specialty Colts of 1991. Safeen is a consistent sire of athletic offspring with exceptional dispositions. Sigar's dam, MB Ballur by El Norus was purchased by Montebello Farms in Quebec upon their farm dispersal. Although his dam remains unshown, Sigar has both his sire and dam's incredible laid-back personality and trainability. Upon entering the show ring; however, he amazes the crowd with his charm and charisma! Emily Vincent purchased Sigar from SEAH Farms (or Canadian Arabians Ltd at that time) and she was subsequently was transferred to California by her employer. To her family's amazement she brought Sigar! "Can't you buy another horse when you get down here?" exclaimed her father. With tears in her eyes she stated that there was not another horse like him in the world! Her family and friends watched in amazement as he took the Class A show circuit and the Open Dressage circuit by storm garnering the following awards in his first year of showing: 2003 USEF Horse of the Year Open Dressage and Arabian Dressage. His 2nd show in his life was the 2003 Region 3 Championships in which he beat 24 horses trotting away with an incredible score of 74%! He amazed everyone when they found out that, not only was he an Arabian, but he was a Straight Egyptian! He learned perfect flying lead changes and was doing Tempis every one by the age of 4! A quick learner, he went on to beat Warmbloods at their own game until he was retired from Dressage at the 2nd Level to a life in the Western Pleasure and Halter ring! In 2003, under the direction of Arturo Saldana, he won Horse of the Year in Halter and in 2004 and 2005 he again won this title! In 2005 he was the 2005 Champion Horse of the Year in Western Pleasure- Open and ranked 7th in the Nation! He has been featured in www.arabianworldtv.com and other various publications! Sigar has proven that not only do Straight Egyptians have beauty, they have brawn as well!
