The Line Afire
Baske Afire took center stage at the 2009 Scottsdale
Show, both as a show horse and as an important sire of
Champions. The leading siring son of leading sire, Afire Bey V
won both the Pleasure Driving class and the Pleasure Driving
Championship, but his wonderful appearance in Scottsdale
as a show horse paled beside his magnitude as a sire of winners.
Baske Afire
offspring took home 11 Championships and 7 Reserve Championships
at this year’s Scottsdale Show, plus 20 Top Tens, 14 first
place awards, and 18 additional ribbons in classes during the
course of 11 days.

U.S.
National Championship Show, 2008
Baske Afire offspring were several notches beyond impressive at
the 2008 U.S. National
Championship Show. There were 45 sons and daughters entered in 63
classes and 28 were named Top Ten or better for a 62% rating. At the end
of the show, the formidable group had accumulated 4 National
Championships, 6 Reserve National Championships and 34 Top Ten awards.
The purebreds won 15 awards and the Half-Arabians took home 19. The
ratio of halter to performance was more dramatic with the performance
horses taking 25 awards and the halter horses 9.
National Champions included She Be Adiva KBS, who took two rose
blankets, one in HA Saddle/Pleasure Halter Mares Open and one in the
AAOTH. A Fire Inside was Reserve in both of these classes. KD Kontagious
won the PB English Pleasure Futurity, with Glitterati taking the Reserve
honors, and The Way She Moves won the PB Country English Pleasure Junior
Horse. Additional
Reserve National Champions included Rohara AmericanLegacy in the HA
Futurity Gelding Halter, BG Crème Brulee in the HA English Pleasure
AAOTR 40 and Over, and In The Line Afire in the HA English Pleasure
Junior Horse. The oldest to compete, six-year-old BG Crème Brulee is
from Baske Afire’s first foal crop (2002). At least a dozen of the
Baske Afire offspring competing at this year’s Nationals were
five-year-olds from his second foal crop (2003). Double National
Champion She Be Adiva KBS is four.
