GLR Tica is a dark brown incredibly dense and lustrous Shavano daughter, one of the first Shavano kids that Brad and Jandy have ever shown. Her mother, Tambora of Peru was one of our favorite dams who we sold at our Great Lakes Classic II sale in 2009. We purposely kept Tambora's daughter Tica, as we were not willing to let go of her mama's genetics due to her track record. When we bought Tambora, it was because of her extreme density and high luster, and Tica has inherited both those traits and more from her papa. Shavano is extremely dense and lustrous as well. Tica was shown in 2009 as a juvenile and was Reserve Brown Female Color Champion at both the AAA Futurity and Mapaca, and she won her class at AOBA Nationals. In her final year of showing she was the 2010 Reserve Brown Female Champion at the AAA Futurity and Brown Female Color Champion and Judges Choice at the 2010 GWAS in Denver and the 2010 AOBA Brown Female Color Champion at Nationals. She was bred to our 5 time Color Champion, 3/4 Accoyo Young Felipe, and had a beautiful beige high luster female, GLR Tashi, who will did well in the show ring spring 2011 and is now a foundation female at the ranch. Tica had a very nice Young Felipe daughter, GLR Tessa who only showed two times in 2013 and was Color Champion at both the 2013 AOBA Nationals and MAPACA. Tica's 2015 male cria, GLR Tico, sired by Cinders, the 2016 Dark Herdsire of the Year is a true black solid male who did very well in the show ring as a juvenile. Tica's 2017 offspring went on to win 2019 Futurity Color Champion for brown suri female. 2018's cria from Tica, Jolene of Halo took multiple championships for a true black female.
