IMTAARIF
Imperial Imdal x Taarifa
It's true, when you have that one great horse in your
life, he will never be forgotten. It's heartbreaking
that you can't go out and rub his neck and feed him
his carrot. He will live on through his progeny that
represent him here at our farm.

Egyptian Event in June 2000. It was on a whim, that our handler, Eileen Verdieck convinced my wife
Paula and me to enter our beloved stallion, Imtaarif in the 10 and Over Stallion Class. The stands were
packed with horse lovers near and far. The competition was fierce. The "Best of the Best" breeders
were there. And we were Rose Breeze Arabians, the "small" breeder in town. We had nothing to loose.
Music started to play loudly as the prized Egyptian Arabian stallions each made their entrance into the
enormous ring. Colorful banners and flags swayed as the horses trotted by the grandstand, each trying
to catch the impeccable eye of the esteemed judges. Then, it was Imtaarif's turn. My heart was
pounding. I grabbed Paula's hand as we watched him enter the show ring. The crowd roared wildly as
Imtaarif strutted and snorting, throwing his long black mane from side to side with each impressive step.
I knew at that moment something important was happening. That history was making a place for our
stallion. When the time came to announce Senior and Supreme Champion Stallion, you could hear a pin
drop. We held our breath...............it was Imtaarif.
On a warm spring morning in 1990, Paula and I watched with amazement the birth of a long-legged
Straight Egyptian colt bred by my mentor and friend, the late Dr. Eugene Elledge. I was so attached to
this particular colt that Eugene allowed me to name him. And Imtaarif was born. From that point on, we
were inseparable. I was given the honor of training and showing Imtaarif in over 25 Class A shows in the
US. We never left without a Champion or Reserve Championship ribbon. What a thrill!
In 1994, Steve Dady led Imtaarif to win Egyptian Event Reserve Senior Champion. And notably, Michael
Byatt led Imtaarif to victory in 1996 beating the very stallion that won at the Salon De Cheval in Paris and
National Cup Championship.
He just knew what he was born to do. He had the heart of a Champion.
Imtaarif has been sire to 114 foals and has held the rare title of Top Ranking Sire of Champions at the
Egyptian Event for 12 years in-a-row. His Champion Get is spread across the world and truly lives up to
the impeccable "Imtaarif" legacy.
It is within our deepest core, the depth of love and admiration we feel for our stallion, our friend, the
mighty Imtaarif. He will be with Paula and I for eternity. Each day as we go about our training and caring
for his six beautiful daughters on our farm, we get to experience that sparkle, that playfulness, that
magnificence of Imtaairf................that lives on.
"And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years."
