Stallion ~ Second Wind Arabians

The Stallion CN Jericho

More than a dozen years ago, Second Wind was captivated by the youthful elegance of a flaxen chestnut son of Thee Desperado: CN Jericho. He has been at the heart of our commitment to the Egyptian Arabian…the results have been nothing less than breathtaking.

Jericho sets the standard for Egyptian elegance. A stallion of extraordinary type, he has an extreme profile; wide-set luminous eyes; and a tiny muzzle. His body is smooth, short-coupled with a well laid-back shoulder and long, powerful hip.

Jericho has three U.S. National Reserve Champion Stallions, a National Top Ten Futurity Stallion, two National Top Ten Stallions, a multiple International Champion Stallion and for international champion-producing sires…all in the first three generations of his pedigree. He is himself a champion at halter and in performance and was named both a Leading Juvenile Stallion and a Lead Juvenile Sire of Halter Winners in 2005.

A prepotent sire, Jericho stamps his foals with type, athletic prowess and charisma. He produces winning foals that are marketable, winsome and affectionate.

Jericho’s book for this year is extremely limited. He stands at Sugar River Training Stable, Albany, Wisconsin for live-cover only.

From the desert I come…a stallion shod with fire, and the winds are left behind…"

The dark nocturnal silence of the desert aroused the need to sit at the warm fire and exchange reminiscences of wars and raids, of victory, of wars and raids, of hardship and danger, but also of the life-saving wisdom, the swiftness and devotion of the horses.

My horse is the champion of all steeds,
He is blue like a pigeon in the shadow,
And his black mane and tail are undulant,
He endures hunger and thirst and can see a great distance. He is a very great drinker of the Arabic air.
…Daumas – 1853

There is for me no other creature that embodies grace, charm, beauty, nobility and dignity in such a breathtaking way as the Arabian horse. These ethereal creatures always put me in a kind of trance: I believe, measured against fear and worry, that the object of my admiration is only a dream, or might dissolve into thin air, that it is an angel wearing the aspect of a horse. For does not the Arabian horse fly already? Can one not feel the sculptor’s thumb-mark of God along the line which runs from eye to nostril?
…Wolfdietrich Schnurre

And from the lore of the Desert:
My treasures do not clink together or glitter; they gleam in the sun and neigh in the night.

And the noble Koran:
I have endowed you with the power to fly without wings.
