She showed him very limitedly but was very successful with him. He was sold to K.C. Pappas where he spent most of his life producing many World Champions for her. His sons and daughters have produced many World Champions as well...including First Knight's Lord Of The Ring...who was the 2004 World Grand Champion Junior Stallion & the 2005 World Grand Champion Senior Stallion! Needless to say, Honey has more than contributed to the miniature horse industry. We are so happy to say that Honey has come home to Texas once again and he is just as wonderful as we remember. He is quite the ham and loves to play games and is one of the nicest stallions you can ever hope to have in your barn.
