All the King's Horses is proud to support the European Brabant Registry of America in their goal to preserve and promote the traditional European Brabant draft horse. We are strong believers in 'putting your money where your mouth is' and, as such, we are excited to take the chance to give back to this organization as well as the horse community at large by donating a foal to raise funds for the EBRA and two additional equine charities of someone's choice.
To get in on the fun, you can purchase a pledge (or two, or three) for $100 each by completing the entry form HERE. Once payment is received, we'll contact you to confirm and you can either select your lucky numbers or we'll assign one to you. We're offering a maximum of 100 pledge spots... not too bad for your odds! We're hoping to do the prize drawing on October 18, the anniversary of the launch of the EBRA, provided that sufficient pledges have been claimed or no later than the end of the year. The Grand Prize winner will select one of the two foals we're offering, and the two Second Prize winners will each select an equine industry 501(c)3 charity to receive 25% of the fundraiser proceeds. The remaining 50% of the funds will be donated to the European Brabant Registry of America. Full contest rules are available below.
Now, meet the eligible boys! The Grand Prize winner can select either of these colts to join their herd.
AKH Mountain Man: Purebred (95.75%) European Brabant. Bay Roan. Expected height 16 hands. Sired by Chris uit den Blommendaal and out of Carter's Kit Karson. This boy would make an amazing sire of Brabant horses. He's made well and has an excellent mind on him. Very stout and big boned. He is very willing in his lessons and eager to please.

AKH Pepper: Appendix Brabant (50% European Brabant, 50% Percheron). Grey. Expected height 17 hands. Sired by Chris uit den Blommendaal and out of AKH Sequoia. Pepper is a very sweet boy who will gladly follow his humans around the field all day long. He has a lot of leg under him and appears to have gotten his mama's height. He would make an excellent riding or working horse for someone wanting a little more get up and go than the purebred European Brabants generally show. He could also be upgraded to the European Brabant Stock studbook if the new owner planned to keep him intact for breeding. A foal video can be found at https://youtu.be/S2f8j2ll1dI
