Farewell to Bey Shahzon

May 1990 - December 2009

{Bey Shah+ x Gaazahr (Gazon)}

Marosh Arabians regretfully announced that on Dec. 11, 2009, they made the decision to humanely put Bey Shahzon down.  He had developed some serious arthritis and was in a lot of pain and having trouble getting around and getting up and down.   He will live on in our hearts forever.

SIRE and GRANDSIRE of CHAMPIONS

YEAR after YEAR after YEAR after YEAR....

Bey Shahzon was sired by one of the all-time leading sires of champions, BEY SHAH+.  Bey Shahzon was out of a champion-producing daughter of "Living Legend" sire & leading sire of champions, GAZON.  Gazon was noted as a superior broodmare sire.  Dam to Bey Shahzon, GAZAHR, is line bred to FERZON, through Gazon and again through her dam, daughter of the National TOP TEN Ferzon son, Bu-Zahr.

Bey Shahzon was never shown himself, due to a leg injury as a yearling.  However, his full sisters were very successful show horses.  His full sister, BEY OBSESSION, was US National TOP TEN Futurity Filly, Region 10 Champion Mare, Region 11 Champion Mare, Region 11 Champion Mare, Buckeye Champion aged Mare, and winner of many other championships.   Another full sister, PASSIONATE BEY, was a multi-champion mare.  Bey Obsession was also the dam to the very influential Ali Jamaal son, MAF Bey Ali, who died at a very young age, but still sired some very impressive foals out of only 2 foal crops.

Bey Shahzon has proven his worth as a sire through the great success his foals had in the show ring and breeding barn.  Bey Shahzon sired 8 Regional Sweepstakes Yearling Champions or Reserves.  He has sired a Scottsdale Halter Champion and 3 other Scottsdale TOP TEN winners.   He sired Regional Champions & Top Five winners in halter and performance and numerous Class A Champions and Iowa Gold Star futurity winners in Halter & performance.  Bey Shahzon's foals consistently inherited the style, carriage and attitude that have made the Bey Shah horses such incredible show horses.   He was very strong in producing size; length of leg; high-set, long & shapely necks; pretty faces with big eyes; great bodies; short backs; extreme tail-carriage; great legs; and athletic ability.  He also consistently sired foals with great personalities and trainable dispositions.
