Chestnut Mare - Foaled 5/24/05

Ultra-feminine and refined, this exquisite mare epitomizes the unparalleled beauty the Arabian horse is so famous for.  A born show horse with all of the attitude and charisma one would expect in such an outstanding individual - she's absolutely stunning!  In 2005, Marcelina won her first Filly Jr. Championshiply at only 4 months of age and in 2006 was awarded two Top Tens at Scottsdale in the Yearling Filly 4/15-7/31 and Signature Stallion Futurity Filly classes and a Top Five at Region 3 in the Yearling Sweepstakes Class.  In 2007, Marcelina won another Class A Jr. Championship at the Alamo AHA Spring Fiesta Show in May and was shown once in 2008 to a U.S. National Top Ten win in Mare AOTH halter!

Marcelina's dam, R Imagination, is by Leading Halter Sire Magic Dream and is a U.S. National Top Ten, Scottsdale Top Ten and multi-Regional halter winner in her own right.   She is an outstanding producer as all of her foals are halter champions at the Class A, Scottsdale or Regional levels.  R Imgaintion's sire, Magic Dream is sired by National Champion Ali Jamaal and out of The Dreamspinner.  Magic Dream is the sire of numerous National winners, including National Champion QR Excel.  R Imagination's dam, Bey Affair, is sired by U.S. Reserve National Champion Bey Shah and out of EW Patina.  EW Patina is a full sister to EW Ultima - twice U.S. National Top Ten Park Horse and dam of Ultra Afire and In The Lineafire.
