19 Time Halter Champion in True Black! 2012 has been good to Jacob Black. Every show he went to, he was the Color Champion, and it didn't matter if it was the Futurity or Nationals. He finished 2012 with a stellar 19 halter champion banners! Jacob Black has great conformation, a beautiful fleece, and a handsome head. His true black fleece is extremely uniform with a very expressive crimp style found normally on white animals. His personality is laid back and gentle. Jacob Black started showing when he was 9 months old, and since that time, he bannered in every show he went to, with the exception of a blue ribbon at the Futurity when he was 10 months old. Jacob is not available to outside breedings. He will be an exclusive, restricted herdsire for our black program, and he will join 15 time champion Knight Rider in producting show winning blacks. Update: Jacob Black wins Reserve Dark Herdsire at the 2015 Futurity and the 2016 Futurity! That is a fabulous achievement! Update: Jacob Black's crias are outstanding, and many of them are already champions themselves!

Description

Sable is a striking true black female sired by the legendary Avalon’s Jacob Black (19x Champion) and out of Blueridge Accoyo Marksman’s Moxy. She carries Jacob Black’s hallmark phenotype — a strong frame, square build, and deep, even coverage. Sable proved her quality in the show ring with a 2nd Place finish at Nationals, standing out in one of the most competitive classes. While her EPDs are modest, her phenotype, presence, and elite pedigree make her a valuable foundation for producing true black and grey offspring. She is currently bred to Mercury (medium silver-grey, top 10% MSL) with an expected due date of July 2, 2026. This pairing is designed to combine Mercury’s impressive staple length and brightness with Sable’s rich true black genetics, with strong potential for a cria in black or grey. Sable brings both show-proven presence and breeding program potential to our herd — a cornerstone for building depth in color and quality at High Desert Farmstead.
