HOF Child Of the Night++++
(ET Crown Prince X Faa Bint Century Dusk by Bielecentaa)
1995 Black Straight Egyptian Arabian Stallion
C&H Ranch
Horses Forever
Conditions: I would like the foal to remain at least three years younger than my stallion for realism purposes. I do not retain buy-backs or rights on ASBA foals. Please send the foal's basic information to me when it is decided so I can include it in my stallion's progeny list.

HOF Child Of The Night++++ has become one of the most popular sport horse sires in HF. It's no surprise; he himself rarely takes less than reserve in his Intermediate II dressage classes and has earned multiple National titles as well as World titles, AHA Awards, and a coveted Triple Crown title. I really cannot say enough about this stallion, AND he is the sire of the AJC racing legend, HOF Marutas CH++++ as well as MANY HF show champions. In 2012, Night was approved at NINTH PLACE. Night has long been hailed in HF as a top sport stallion and of the best quality, but being Trakehner, Oldenburg, AND Hanoverian approved in HF only adds to his career and siring abilities. He has really shown what an excellent example of a strong, sporty, yet refined horse he is, and his babies aren't any different from him.
--------------------------------------------------
C&H Ranch truly considers itself lucky to be a part of this charismatic stallion's life. Night is an exotic, deep black Egyptian Arabian with charisma, amazing athleticsm, and a top-notch pedigree. He has amazed members of three games, quickly becoming a sought-out sire and honored champion in each.
BACKGROUND
Night was bred and born on a large HF Arabian farm back in the 90's when HF was getting started. He was sold to C&H Ranch where he was raised, trained, and shown. Already having a senior and junior sire, C&H sold him to another ranch and was exported, and we soon regretted the decision. We lost connection with him soon after that, but he never left our thoughts.
We began searching for him, and in June of 2002 we found him residing in a different game through TC, who offered him to us. We found that he had been ignored and neglected even though he was a very successful racehorse before TC got ahold of him, and we were extremely grateful to have this beautiful stallion back where he belongs. We vowed to never again let this lovely stallion out of our sights.
THE SHOW HORSE
Since his show debut in 2003, Night has become an incredible sporthorse, taking the arena by storm and smoking the competition. He consistently brings championships or reserves in Dressage. We were also pleased to learn that the Arabian Stallion Registry of Horses Forever picked him for their November Featured Stallion. He has amassed countless championships, including the very rare and covetted title of Triple Crown Champion:

With great sadness, Night was retired from the showring with the closing of the 2007 show season to focus on his breeding career and to give him a well-deserved rest. He has accomplished and produced so much in his life, he is easily considered one of HF's greats. Expect him to return for the Nationals in his respective classes though.
THE SIRE
HOF Child Of The Night++++ has quickly worked his way to the top of list of supreme sporthorse sires. He has an amazing ability to put presence, style, altheticsm, and a docile yet willing temperment in each of his foals. A Night foal is easily picked out from a crowd; he literally stamps his name on this with their quality. They are very sought after and Night foals rarely sit around long before being snatched up to a grateful home. To date, he has many foals on the ground and they have done so well that I can't list them all here. A list is available upon request though.
Night has the proud honor of being the sire of the Fall 2005, Spring 2006, Fall 2006, and Fall 2007 C&H Ranch Select Sale SALES TOPPER. Quoth The Raven CH (x Lumiar WMA+), a black straight Egyptian filly sold for the unheard of total of $360,000 to PennilessPoet in Fall of 2005, the highest we have ever sold a horse for at that time! Since then, he has been the top sales sire FOUR more times, the last being in 2011 when the foal Sierrah CH (X HOF WA Sayyidah++++) sold in All-Sim at auction for a staggering $1,400,500. Siring record doesn't lie; Night must be doing something right in the breeding shed!
Night has also proven invaluable as a Half-Arabian sire. His foals are refined and able to do just about anything asked of them. He has been successfully crossed with:
Thoroughbred
Morgan
Hackney
Araloosa
Appaloosa
Warmblood
Lippizaner
Hanoverian
Night has also proven his ability in linebreeding. His lovely foal, Out 'Till Midnight (x *Hark How The Night CH) showed no weaknesses that often arise when horses are bred so close together.
