Here at The Broken Arrow, we have enjoyed a working relationship with our Arabian, part-Arabian Spanish Mustang cross and Paint horses (currently no paints, but my daughter is looking). We enjoy their beauty, good nature, and common sense that comes with the bloodlines of their performance ancestry. With the Arabians, we have a tendency to appreciate the working abilities of *Witez II and Ofir bloodlines, which are Polish bred horses. We also like the Crabbet bred and Raffles bloodline from Great Britain. In our opinion, horses with these bloodlines often turn out to be good sensible working horses, that often are able to live a long useful life.
Many of our horses are offered for sale, as we are a ranch with our livelihood depending on the sale of livestock we raise. But we will just continue working with those unsold, as they are our ranch horses. All our horses are stake out broke after weanling age. They are use to being with cattle, as they are usually wintered with our herd bulls during winters months, so know how to watch out for themselves and how to manage with being around average natured bulls. Their summer pasture is a ranch/cattle type of pasture with barbwire fencing, so they are also familiar with that type of fencing.
** Horses with two asterisks, make a offer, short of hay this spring and to many acres of our pasture is currently under water.
Thank You! to our buyers of:
APHA "Brite Poncho Blues",
Arabian/Spanish Mustang "TBA Ofir Aandi",

Our Brood Mares
For Sale:
Mi Tsyndamiga "Syndi"
Brood Mare Breed: Purebred Arabian Color: Black Bay Sex: Mare Registration No.: AHRA 0589240 Foaling Date: July 31, 2001 Height: 14.3hh Breeder: Courtney Sire: GDE Tsyndari Dam: Mi Amira Amigo Pedigree: Click here More Pics:Click Here
Syndi came to the ranch in Nov. of 2002, at 16 months of age. A pretty feminine mare with a pedigree rich with Polish bloodlines. She is a friendly, peppy brood mare with classy dish face and large eyes, a right front boot and faint star. SYNDI loads well into a trailer, clips, stands well for hoof trims, not a halter puller when tied. She is also flat strap stake out broke. Small scar on right side, corner of mouth is her only blemish. SYNDI is an attentive mother and good milker. Very good withers, not mutton. Good legs, nice shoulder and neck set, good hooves.
Her sire is a handsome fellow, very typey, with a good nature. He was a Yearling Sweepstakes Futurity Champion, a class A Champion, a Regional Top Ten Halter Horse, and more recently a Most Classic Champion.
Syndi's dam is a good natured horse reported gentle enough for beginner kids to ride, plus a good broodmare.
We had not decided to have Syndi broke to ride, so she has been a brood mare for us. We have only bred her twice and she took both times with first visit to stallion, and she had no foaling difficulties either time. Syndi is a good caring mother milks well, her foals were fat on her. Syndi may also be a good cross with pony breeds for half Arabian show pony foals. She has a friendly personality, but can get a little nervous, not a beginners horse. We have done some minor ground training on her including stake out training. She has been wintered with bulls and cows and is familar with ranch barb wire fencing for her summer pasture.
Syndi has several Polish lines including some lines to *Witez II / Ofir. Her last foal was in 2008 and she had a nice bay filly at side then by a linebred "Ofir" pure Polish homozygous black stallion formly owned by Witez Black Arabians, EOPOLUS. EOPOLUS is Sweepstakes Nominated and by +OPUS ONE. Click Here to see her fancy 2007 filly out of the same stallion, which we also offer for sale.
Syndi is vaccinated for 2010 for rabies, tentaus, E-W sleeping sickness, and West Nile.
Asking: $3,500. Offers Considered. Owner will provide signed transfer of ownership upon payment clearing bank. Buyer to pay for all transportation costs. E-mail

TBA Barbie
Brood Mare
Breed: Spanish Mustang/Arabian Color: Dappled Palomino Sex: Mare Registration No.: PHA 11363 Foaling Date: May 30, 1995 Height: 14.2hh Breeder: Debbie Komrosky Sire: Booker T Mustang Dam: Golden Taffee Pedigree:Click here
Barbie was delivered to the ranch by her breeder, as a pretty little weanling. She is registered with a color breed registry, the Palomino Horse Assoc. Even now at her age, she still has her beautiful dapples. She is sired by a registered Spanish Mustang and could have been registered as a half Spanish Mustang. Out of a registered IAHA 7/8 Arabian-1/8 Quarter Horse palomino mare. She has a strong female line of palominos on her dam side. She has one line to *Witez II / Ofir.
Barbie was broke to ride as a three year old, and obviously was going to make a nice non-spooky sensible saddle horse. One day our herd bulls got into a disagreement and pushed each other out of the corral, leaving a big hole. Barbie and another gelding we use to have, went through and made bee-line to our feed lot grain wagon. Of course helping themselves to the goodies until they could barely swallow. So, when discovered, a quick trip to the Vet. for mineral oil and shots. The new young Vet. that treated them, goofed up and got a little mineral oil in Barbie's lungs. Well, she didn't founder, but the chronic lung problems as result of the mineral oil treatment ruined her lungs. She now has shortness of breath, and a chronic cough. So, with the permanent lung damage caused by the mineral oil, we were forced to change her career from saddle pony to broodmare.
We have enjoyed some very nice foals from her so far. The first two were sired by Witez Black Arabians deceased herd sire, El Nigadin. A palomino filly was first, and a black colt the following year. The palomino filly was sold to Witez Black Arabians as a yearling, and the black colt was sadly lost to colic before a year of age. Barbie had 2003, 2004, and 2006 foals sired by a son of El Nigadin: Nickoli Witez BA, a typey red chestnut, owned by the Trauger family. All three were chestnut colts. Barbie's 2007 solid dark color (maybe black or dark buckskin) colt, TBA Ofir Aandi, is by a linebred "Ofir" pure Polish homozygous black stallion, EOPOLUS, formly owned by Witez Black Arabians. Aandi has been sold. Barbie 2010 filly by EOPOLUS was born on April 21st. Princess should turn black when she sheds her foal coat in the fall.

Our Riding Horses
Love Rage "Snip"
Riding Horse
Breed: Purebred Arabian Color: Grey Sex: Gelding Registration No.: AHRA 236044 Foaling Date: April 8, 1981 Height: 15hh Breeder: El-Jean Arabians Sire: Sur-Patt Dam: Gai-Courrage Pedigree:Click here
Snip was purchased as a two year old from friends after a brief but successful halter career. Very good natured, and a willing worker, he quickly became a favorite cow horse with his quiet ways and patience while working cattle. The last 20+ years he has been a great companion for both work or play. Whether sorting stock in the corral, moving stock to pasture, doing drill team maneuvers, loading his saddle down with duffle bags to carry, or simply carrying Old Glory in a parade, Snip could handle the job. Good sound legs that have done lots of work without leg wraps most of the time and still no splints nor arthritis. Just a Blessing to have, and a tribute to his good breed, breeder and bloodlines.
Snip has been battling Melanoma (skin cancer) since 15 years of age, a common affliction of the grey color Arabians. As an aged gelding, he still holds his own in full Arabian style, whether at work or at play. He has a lot of Crabbet breeding, including some Polish breeding and a line to *Witez II / Ofir.

Magnum Witez BA
Riding Horse
Breed: Purebred Arabian Color: Black Sex: Gelding Registration No.: AHRA 0563830 Foaling Date: April 28, 1999 Height: 14.3hh Breeder:Witez Black Arabians Sire: El Nigadin Dam: My Hal-Amiga Pedigree: Click here More Pictures:Click here
Magnum was purchased from his past owners in WA, through his breeder in ND. He came here as a weanling and went to a professional Parilli / Johnny Lyons style trainer the summer of 2002 for the saddle. By 2003 he had a good start on him for a saddle horse with 2 1/2 months with the trainer plus many rides here on the ranch. I have done a lot of despook ground training on him, which has helped him a lot. Unfortunately since then, I haven't been able to advance his experiences enough, due to an injury I received from a cow charge, health problems with asthma, and an other serious injury from a bad spill off another horse in 2007. However Magnum did spend July and part of Aug. 2007, being rode daily by a ND rancher/trainer, when I couldn't ride him. So, his training-experiences were not always at a stand still. But now my busy schedule is keeping me from riding much. He has not been around a lot of traffic nor city much, mostly country and arena riding. He still spooks at some things so needs a rider that can handle riding spooks at times.
Magnum is normally easy to catch and friendly, having a good people loving nature. He is stake out broke, which will come in handy when on trails rides and camping out. He will side-pass up to you if you are standing on a rock or mount block. Good looking stout muscled fellow that can handle a large man's weight, with nice legs, short strong back, and nice depth of rib. He has extremely beautiful tail carriage. Relatives of his have done well in cutting and endurance riding. He just needs wet saddle blankets and lots more riding experiences on him then I've been able to do with him.
Vaccinated for 2010 for rabies, tentaus, E-W sleeping sickness, and West Nile.
His pedigree is very good with a few lines to *Witez II / Ofir. Offering him for sale at $5,000.00. Part of me hates to part with him, but I may consider offers if I know he is going to a good home. Would consider selling a custom built 17" seat light duty roper saddle with him. Magnum has wither height but an extra thick shoulder blade like many Arabians have and short back, this saddle tree was custom cut to have an extra width in throat of gullet and shorter bar length for his back.

TBA SPARK OF WITEZ
Well started under saddle
Breed: Half Arabian/Spanish Mustang Color: Red Liver Chestnut Sex: Gelding Registration No.: HAHA 1A354227 Foaling Date: April 20, 2004 Height: 15hh Breeder: Deutscher Sire: Nickohli Witez BA Dam:TBA Barbie Pedigree:Click here More Pictures:Click here
Spark started out right away as a friendly fellow. A beauty with his nice muscling, straight legs, and pretty dished face. He has an upside down raindrop shaped star on his forehead, a tiny strike where the halter noseband lays, a snip, and a 3/4 white area on the right hind pastern for white markings.
Spark is ranch raised and is use to being with cattle, as he is usually wintered with our herd bulls during winters months, so knows how to watch out for himself and how to manage himself with being around average natured bulls. He's summer pasture is a ranch/cattle type of pasture with barbwire fencing, so he is also familar with that type of fencing.
A full brother to Spark's sire was a very successful cutting horse in All-Breed and Arabian competition. He was especially competative against Quarter Horses.
Spark is registered as a half Arabian, but in reality he is 23/32 Arabian, 1/4 Spanish Mustang, and 1/32 Quarter Horse. He has about 5 lines to *Witez II. Spark had 45 days of professional training in summer of 2007 for western riding. And an additional 30 days of training spring 2008. We are enjoying continuing his training here at the ranch, and looking forward to using Spark in drill team, trail riding, and cattle work in the future. Spark was also trained for stake strap tie out.
Young Unbroken

Danie is a full brother to Spark. He has nice muscling, decent legs, and pretty slightly dished face. He has a diamond shaped star on his forehead, also white left rear pastern for white markings.
Danie is registered as a half Arabian, but in reality he is 23/32 Arabian, 1/4 Spanish Mustang, and 1/32 Quarter Horse. He has about 5 lines to *Witez II. He is halter broke, and has had foal imprint training, and his hooves have been trimmed regularly. More of a "Left Brain" type, spunky nature, normally easy to catch, very curious, inquisitive, and doesn't act herd bound when taken away from herd mates.
Vaccinated for 2010 for rabies, tetanus, E-W sleeping sickness, and West Nile. Our worming schedule is twice in spring and twice in fall, 30 days apart.
I was planning on taking this gelding to a trainer and having him broken for myself. I love riding his full brother Spark and Danie is so much like him. But I know my busy schedule will just keep me to busy this summer to do much with Danie, so I have decided to sell him.
For Sale, asking $1,000.00, will consider offers to good home.E-mail

TBA Ofir Lucy
Breed: Purebred Arabian
4.1% *Witez II Color: Black/Bay Sex: filly Registration No.: AHA 8377024 Foaling Date: April 24, 2007 Height: 13.1 1/2hh on 7-13-08, should mature 14.3-15hh Breeder: Deutscher Sire: Eopolus Dam:Mi Tsyndamiga Pedigree:Click Here More Pictures:Click here
Lucy is a looker with her feminine face, large eyes, balanced conformation, and a peppy nature. She has a left hind partial coronet for white markings. As a yearling she was a dark bay, but with spring summer coat this year, she had turned into more of a black/bay like her dam.
Lucy is predominately Polish breeding, with her sire being pure Polish line-bred to Ofir, and her dam having several Polish lines. She is a Opus One + granddaughter. She has a carriage action like her sire. She had foal imprint training and halter broke.
Lucy is being caught, haltered, and handled regularly. She has had some despook training. She has also been corraled at times with cattle. She leans a little "Right Brain", so probably not the best choice for beginner, but the more she is handled the better she gets. She does have some speed, we have seen her jump things in pasture, seems sure-footed, maybe could make a gaming horse too. May also make a good brood mare, her dam has been a good milker. May make a good cross with pony breeds for half Arabian show pony foals.
Vaccinated for 2010 for rabies, tentaus, E-W sleeping sickness, and West Nile. Pics shown are from May 2009.
