GLR Blackout is a son of 2010 Herdsire of the Year, Shavano, and GLR Amelita, the dam of National Champion, GLR Kolaqua. Blackout at his very first show earned MAPACA Color Champion and Judge's Choice male. Judge's Choice to a black??? I know!!! He then earned a second place as the youngest in a class of 12 at the 2011 Futurity, placing right behind the Color Champion. On his one year birthday he was declared the 2011 Black National Color Champion!!! Blackout has that fine, super dense, consistent lock we admire from Shavano. He has striking presence, proportion, conformation, and a deep, colorful pedigree of Shavano, Condor, and Alita. Blackout's crias are maroon, bay black, true black, grey, grey appaloosa. All stunning! Michonne the best true black born on our farm. We will be breeding him for 2021 offspring at Hephzibah Farms, where he's already last year produced a mini-me for their next little herdsire. After that, he is available for purchase, partnership or lease.
