Our Goals
| Once you have met one of the ancient breeds, the way you look at horses will change. To see the intelligence, feel the wisdom, ride the power and elegance, and be dazzled by the charm -- these are the gifts bestowed by these elegant and beautiful horses. They carry generations of history in their eyes, and move with the presence and grace of nobility. |

Here at Central Asian Equines, our goals are simple -- to continue to breed these treasures for future generations to cherish, according to the same guidelines by which they were passed to us. We believe that every purebred mare in these precious genepools should have every chance possible to reproduce and continue not just the maintenance, but the growth of these unique breeds. We also strive to import new bloodlines into this country to insure the best diversity possible in our breeding program, we currently have some of the only representatives of their respective bloodlines in the entire U.S.

We believe that these breeds, in all their unique differences from more mainstream breeds, have the ability and drive to be competitive in the FEI equestrian disciplines of eventing, dressage, and show jumping. Our secondary goal is to create athletes who can excel in these disciplines, utilizing their boundless well of energy, suppleness, and elegance combined with the power, speed and endurance fine-tuned over generations. Our upcoming youngsters show all the promise to achieve our goals.

We also feel that these two breeds have much to offer to the performance world through crossbreeding. To this end, we also produce larger halfbreds, carefully choosing mares of other breeds, whose conformation, temperament, and capabilities can be enhanced by the cross with Akhal-Teke or Caspian stallions. These offspring make outstanding competition horses and may be more suitable for the taller or heavier rider than the purebreds themselves. Please check our Sales List for the availability of these foals.

We believe, to the best of our knowledge, that we have created the first planned direct cross of these two ancient breeds. While we appreciate and revere the uniqueness and rarity of both genepools, and continue purebred breeding programs of both, we felt there was a place and niche for this particular type of horse. A true small, light, intelligent, athletic creature, our first crossbreds have amazed us with their beauty and character even as youngsters; they are stunning to look at and incredibly easy to work with. We look forward to seeing them develop with age and expect them to be a remarkably adept sporthorse, a perfect ride for the small amateur adult or talented young rider. We will continue to produce a limited number as time and resources allow, please contact us for more details on this fascinating endeavor.
