Foundation Horses
Here at CJ Ranch we believe in quality not quantity. We are a small operation with only two well-bred purebred Arabian mares as the foundation of our breeding program. Both of these mares have excellent bloodlines, are trained reining horses, are the "Energizer Bunny" and love to get out and go. They are also all "little girl" horses -- they love attention! Please read on to learn more about these beautiful ladies, the stallion and to view their pedigrees.
Oakies Ginger Snap (reference sire)
Oakies Ginger Snap is a tall, long legged grullo AQHA stallion from a local ranch. He is Foundation bred with an excellent hip, clean neck and refined head. "Snap" Sr. is used to work cattle year round on varying terrain. He has an excellent disposition -- he breeds mares (live cover) in the morning, works cattle all day and breeds mares in the evening. His foals are quick learners and inherit his excellent disposition. Snap Sr.'s sire is in his 20s and is still breeding a few mares every year.
Zees Pet
(Zee Impressive x Zee Pet (by Xenophonn))
This 1995 bay mare (shown left with Johanna and CJ Zeebra) lives up to her name! She is a sweetheart and is extremely people oriented. "Pet" is quite stocky with a beautiful dished head (the photos do not do her justice). Bred to be a cutter, she has the bloodlines and the build to make athletic working babies. Pet loves to work cows and is a top hand at herding them... esp.
rounding up the strays and heading off the occasional "runaways". She is very smooth and has a natural western/hunter headset. Out on the range, she gets out and covers ground with her ears forward. Pet is an excellent mother who takes good care of her baby yet allows us to handle it without 
getting too upset.
Pet's 2005 filly, CJ Zeebra (shown at right), is a stocky buckskin who is easy to work with and a quick learner. While Zeebra is not as refined as her half siblings out of HSABintu Al-Bahri, we are happy to say that this is the smartest foal we have ever had! View Pet's pedigree. View the stallion's pedigree.
HSABintu Al-Bahri
(AM Sea Captain++ x Al-Marah Ilargo (by Al-Marah Counts Pennant))
This 1996 Al-Marah-bred chestnut mare is one of the last AM Sea Captain++ daughters. AM Sea Captain++ produced 
more cutting and reining athletes than any Arabian stallion today. "Bahri" is not only beautiful to look at, but she is also one of the prettiest movers out there! Bahri is well built, but petite (NOT fragile). She has two and a half years reining training, and multiple Class A placings in Reining AAOTR 40 & Over and Open. This is just a real nice "using" horse. She covers ground on the range, is a natural cow horse, is a excellent mother and is just plain fun to ride. Bahri has had two foals: CJ Snapple Berry (shown right, 3 yr. old), a 2004 
Half Arabian chestnut filly, and, CJ The Magician, a 2006 chestnut colt (shown bottom left, 1 1/2 yr old). Both foals are by Oakies Ginger Snap (above).
Bahri is currently leased out to TrestleWood Stables for a 2009 foal.
