GS Golden Thunder+
1998 Chestnut Arabian Mare
*bred by Greenwood Stud*
Sire: Golden Gun+ (Magnum Psyche x NV Shalimar)
*owned by Oasis Stables, Inc.*
Dam: April Thunder (*Aladdin x Wizjera)
*owned by Oasis Stables, Inc.*
Golden Thunder is one of our most showy and go-getter mares. Being the very first Golden Gun foal in HF, we had high expectations for her. She never disappointed us! This mare not only exceeded what we thought she was capable of, it seemed as if she wanted to rub it in our faces. This mare is from the very first foal crop we ever bred in sim. She is from the same foal crop as the well known GS Son of a Gun (owned by Chelsea of WA,Ltd.) She was a striking and exotic filly and quickly sold. She went on switching hands until we more or less completely lost track of her. We reclaimed her when the game starting going down and brought her to HF for a new beginning. She had lived a bit of a bad life and seemed to fully appreciate her new opportunity. This mare has been of the most consistent and succesful horses to be campaigned by Oasis and we are extremely proud of her. She never puts up a fight, although she can get opinionated from time to time. She is the absolute show horse and she adores and lives for the spotlight. She carries a very strong resemblance to her sire with the strong movements of her Polish dam's heritage. This mare is just going to continue wowing the crowd and producing little replicas like herself.
Golden Thunder's sire, Golden Gun is one of our senior sires. He was the very first stallion created by us and thus, has a very special place in our hearts. He is our most showy and spirited stallion and age is definitely not a factor for him. He has had a lot of success both in hand and under saddle. His golden chestnut coat always grabs all the attention. Due to his playful nature, he is always a crowd favorite and just loves the thrill of an excited crowd that claps and screams his nickname, "Gunner." His foals have for the most part inherited his showy and playful nature, beautiful looks, and working attitude. His foals also include: GS Son of a Gun and Mindolluin OS (World Champion Weanling Colt). He has a small number of foals, all of very high quality.
Golden Thunder's dam, April Thunder, is one of our prized and most succesful broodmares. Being one of the very first purchases in sim, April Thunder is very loved and holds a special place in our hearts. She was quite the sport horse when she was competed in our previous game. We knew we wanted her solely as a broodmare here in HF though. She has turned out to be an even better broodmare than she ever was a show horse. April Thunder does not disappoint with her foals. Not including Golden Thunder, April Thunder also gave us the most succesful Arabian colt of 2006. Athelas OS (Legacy FA) did not win Colt of the Year or anything, but he completely obliterated his competition the majority of the 2006 show year in the yearling colts division. He would garner Champion after Champion and even went Supreme Champion of the Show defeating older and more accomplished horses. April Thunder also gave us the lovely Azja OS (*Malik al Shaqab) in 2006, a super exotic filly who is just beginning her show career in 2007.
Competes in: Liberty, Sport Horse Under Saddle, Jumpers (AHA Circuit ONLY!), Halter, Sport Horse Halter In Hand
