Performance Comments

Vegas is a full brother to Darma Acres of Impact who has made a mark for himself in campdraft and challenge.  He won the Landmark Open Campdraft 2016.  access highlights of Impact on Utube.  Vegas has everything type, size, style and is everything Impact was at his age. Another very exciting prospect.  One of the most trainable colts we have started.

Vegas was started in October and spelled and has been back in training for the past 10 weeks.  He is stopping nicely and turning around correctly.  He has been extremely patient, giving and trainable. 

He won't be started on cattle as we don't start our horses on cattle as 2 year olds.

Darren has put the same softness into this colt as he has all of the horses he has started which has proven time and time again to build the basis for calmness, confidence and success.  

This colt has a very special presence. 

He is well grown, with a nice front and shoulder and his confirmation is perfect.

The Dam is from 4th generation of complete ROSEBROOK breeding from the renowned stud of Terry Blake.

Terry Blake stated, “ROSEBROOK MARQUISETTE is possibly the best  mare he has ever bred.  He goes onto say this mare had a tonne of speed, terrific stop and the ability to manoeuvre herself into any position you wanted.”
