2002 15.1hh BLACK ASH STALLION (REG 160318)  Cadabra is the first Australian Stock Horse stud to be imported into Canada. Arriving in Canada in the spring of 2009 as part of the McArthur-Icewood partnership, Cadabra is a stunning example of the Australian Stock Horse type in conformation, ability and temperament. Cadabra began campdrafting late in 2008 and has already been successful in Open Challenges. He has dominated the Australian Stock Horse world with multiple Supreme Champion Led awards, Supreme Champion Working Horse titles plus overall wins in ASH Cattle Working classes, Futurities & Maturities. This very cowy horse has an exciting future ahead of him in Campdraft, Challenge and ASH events. He has a remarkably gentle disposition, which anyone who has come to view Cadabra throughout the breeding season can attest to.
2010 STUD FEE $1200 LFG Booking and breeding forms are available for download. Cadabra will stand at McArthur-Icewood Stud Farm, just south of Calgary, Alberta. Any veterinary services are provided by Moore Equine Veterinary Centre. registries Cadabra is registered with the following:
 pedigree His sire, Palmers Fort Abdul, who sadly passed away in October 2005, was a 'sire of sires' and winner of multiple ASH events whilst also being a competitive Open campdrafter. His sire, the Warwick Gold Cup winner Abdul-IS, was from foundation Australian Stock Horse lines by Abbey-FS, and out of Comara Princess-FM.Palmers Fort Abdul's dam is the prolific producer, Palmers Sissy-FM, who mothered the stallion, Better View Gunfire, the sire of a Cloncurry Challenge winner and a Warwick Gold Cup winner.
An outstanding aspect of Cadabra's pedigree is that he is a son of one of Australia's top campdraft mares, Star Caddie. Owned by Mr Phillip Roberts, and campaigned by the renowned riders of great campdrafters, Terry & Christine Hall from Goondiwindi, Star Caddie has a performance record to challenge most stallions, let alone broodmares! Perhaps her most outstanding achievement however, was placing second from a field of hundreds in the 1998 Warwick Gold Cup under Ken Boulton. She also brings top Australian Stock Horse bloodlines into play being herself sired by the great Star Black Minstral-FS from Mills Stud Caddie, an own daughter of Elliots Creek Cadet-FS.
