ANGEL is the first one to greet you at the gate, and you love to see her, every day.
This bright and beautiful young mare has a lovely face and big Spanish eyes.  Her conformation is beautiful as well.   ANGEL SO FAR has very good legs and feet, with excellent forearm-cannon bone ratio. Angel’s body is divided into three equal parts, just as the books say it should be.  Her shoulder is laid back, with a good length of humerus.  Her hindquarter has a good flat scapula and a forward angled ilium.  Just like the books say it should be.  These are points that open judges look for in Sport Horse prospects.  How did she get so lucky?  It’s bred to the bone with ANGEL.  ANGEL’s dam *JEZABEL is still sound and ridden at the age of twenty three, after going the distance as a show horse and as a brood mare.

We have outstanding memories of JEZABEL and her jumping career.  In an early all breed schooling show, where JEZABEL won the Jumpers, a cowboy standing at the rail remarked, “Well, she was the littlest horse here.  But she jumped the biggest”.  And the nice lady at a Pebble Beach Open show, who came to the gate to inquire about JEZABEL after she won again, with her handy turns and will to succeed, “What kind of horse IS that”?  And when *JEZABEL won the US National Championship 1999 in a second round jump off at 4’ to 4’3”, when she galloped in such a forward way over the raised course, with an impossible inside turn to a fan shaped triple bar, going clean with the fastest time, judge Victor Hugo-Vidal remarked in his dry fashion, “Now, THAT was exciting”.   We appreciate the comment; he had seen the best of the Open Jumper world. 

Beautiful and sweet yes, and ANGEL has already shown the exceptional jumping talents of *JEZABEL SSB +//, ANGEL jumps easily and with great form in the free jump arena.  ANGEL also shows the excellent Dressage talent of her sire *S S ORION, who has Regional and National awards in H/J, and the Region III Championship, Third Level Musical Free Style.  ANGEL is already a winner in her first Dressage show. 

ANGEL’s grandsire is the great *DIAMANTE, and ANGEL is definitely a diamond, ready to shine. ANGEL SO FAR can go the distance for an owner who would like to show to the top, from proven winning ancestors.  Stanley Ranch has had an outstanding ride with *JEZABEL SSB +//.  She has helped to make the name of our breeding farm what it is today.  ANGEL could give you a great ride.  ANGEL can also be a great broodmare, she has a rare pedigree, as the only offspring of Legion of Excellence *JEZABEL SSB +// and *S S ORION, son and grandson of WAHO ‘Best of Spain’.
