Brian Violette & GaiEminent

GaiEminent is one of two six year old colts at Capay Valley Arabians. Bred by myself,Jane Rinka, he was born April 23, 2004. His sire, Gai Eminence was one of the last colts born on the Gainey Ranch in Santa Ynez before the program dispersed. GaiEminent is heavy Gainey on the sire side with such greats as Gai Monarch, Gaishea, Gai Parada, and Gai Radiant in the first three generations of his pedigree. On the dam side you find Prince Parada and Gai Parada. In addition Polish lines come through his grandsire Posejdon, Bask x Portulaka. We started GaiEminent under saddle at home. We put him in training with Gretchen McDaniel of McDaniel Training. He's being trained in Western Pleasure but will do some Hunter Pleasure also. He has an amazing disposition with a true willingness to learn. He will debut in the show arena this year in May with Gretchen McDaniel and amateur rider Brian Violette.
