5/13/2012 - Thank you for visiting Kasino's website. Kasino has began his preparation for the yearling in hand trail and yearling longeline at APHA shows. We enjoy attending and supporting the local open club, CCWHA, so we have already started with babies at halter at Franklinton Saddle Club, with great success. Thanks to everyone for your compliments! As the summer progresses, look for us at shows in NC, SC and VA. We'll try to peak for the APHA World Show, but since Kasino is double registered, we may also hit some yearling longeline AQHA futurities in the fall.
I occasionally write a blog entry or two about Kasino, so please see FlatKnees & Fotography if you want to read about him.
Hopefully there will be many professional pictures and videos this year as Kasino begins his show career. Meanwhile, there are dozens of snapshots organized by month on his Facebook Fan Club page if you would like to see him (link above to join) or see any of the videos (link above).

How did Kasino get to be double registered? |
|
|
Scenic Rio Krymsun
Currently, crop outs as we used to know them are no longer allowed due to the adoption of the "one paint parent rule" by APHA. So the only way to get a double registered foal, is to have at least one double registered parent.
Kasino is sired by Scenic Rio Krymsun, who is a double registered stallion by World and Congress Champion One Hot Krymsun and out of a producing daughter of Zippo Pine Bar. |

Pleasure Me Zan
If the first parent is already double registered, the second parent must either also be double registered, have AQHA papers, or have Jockey Club papers. In other words, mares with APHA papers only that are bred to Rio (above) will produce foals with APHA papers only.
Kasino is out of Pleasure Me Zan, who is a point earning AQHA bay mare. She is the dam of APHA Superior Pleasure stallion A Pleasure Sensation and AQHA Point Earner/NSBA Money Winner Kompletely Krymsun. |

Kasino is no gamble!
After watching others get solid bred paints (breeding stocks) for many breeding seasons, I decided to skip the gamble. Spots or not, I knew Parlay's foal would be a nice return on my investment.
With Rio, his full sister, and his dam all exhibiting white spots with characteristics of more than one pattern, I suspected my chances for spots were more than just 50/50. This fact, coupled with the knowledge he was going to be eligible for double registration, made this decision no true gamble at all. |
