Max was our first successful foal and was everything we could have hoped for.

In 2010 we co-owned him with Kristina Slobody with the goal of taking him as far as we could at AMHA shows. Max qualified for the World Shoe at his very first show in May, winning one Grand and one Reserve Grand Champion Junior Stallion award and all three Reserve Champion Amateur Stallion awards being shown only by a youth and a Level 1 amateur (Mary). At the AMHA/AMHR shows in Maine in June he won his first Supreme and then his next three all in one weekend.

But shortly after that show he had colic surgery and never fully recovered, succumbing in February 2011 back home at On Target Miniatures.

In his brief life, Max taught us so much and showed he cold compete with the very best with the help of Kristina and others. He was a very special boy and was much loved and is sorely missed.
