Aztec RE is an Aristocrat grandson through his sire, Aragon MFHVA, the high selling stallion at the 2008 American Haflinger Registry Spring Sale.

He is a Michel of NTF great grandson through his dam, Molly RHRR.  You can see her by clicking here.

Aztec has just gone off for training with Wilmer Slabaugh, the Amish trainer who has done a marvelous job with our previous youngsters.

Aztec's mane is less than beautiful in these pictures; he had scrubbed it off reaching under fences.   But if you scroll down you will see earlier pictures, before he scrubbed it.  It's growing out nicely now, and the scrape on his side is all healed and grown in.  I'll be posting new pictures when he comes back from training.

Aztec is fulfilling his early promise of sanity with plenty of vim and vigor.  He ties, trailers, bathes, copes with fly spray and masks, and is  decent about picking up his feet.  He has loved people since birth, spent a little while seeing what he could get away with, and then settled into being pretty much sweetness and light--a really lovely temperament.  He is bright and curious, and is taking well to training. He looks like he will be quite refined as a mature horse, with a nice extended trot.  Aztec will be a really great horse with serious show potential. 

A friendly guy! February 2011

The pictures below were taken at 15 months.

As you can see, he has a noticeably dished face and a nice blaze.

This one below isn't the greatest picture, but you can at least see his mane, which is quite heavy.

Aztec at 4 months old

Aztec is proving to be quite the guy.  He's lively, but sane.  When I first tied him, at three weeks, he did a little testing and complaining, but then you could almost see him shrug his shoulders and settle down. As he gets older he continues to be sane, but is also getting to be quite a handful. He's bright and a bit full of himself!  He halters easily, picks up his feet, more or less leads, and adores people.  He frequently leaves his mother when I show up and comes running to greet me--and he can really run, flying lead changes and all.

His dished face shows more clearly in this picture than in the one above
