SIRE: ACRES DESTINY  DAM: COMARA SABL

Cheyenne (Chey) and Debra O’Brien were looking for an outcross for their Resistol, and Hazelwood Conman and Cashman mares when they heard Wally Rae had an Acres Destiny colt for sale.  The yearling was exactly the type they were after.

Unfortunately, Cashman passed away suddenly soon after they bought Neirbo Django, who they affectionately refer to as Blackie.

Django’s dam was bred by Theo Hill. Chey and Deb say that she was an exceptional type of mare. She was by Comara Harlequin, out of a thoroughbred mare. The Romeo/Abbey cross of Harlequin, combined with the thoroughbred influence, was a major drawcard for the O’Briens.

“We have always had a love affair with Reality bloodlines, and the slight injection of thoroughbred blood was sure to maintain good size, speed, and conformation.

This made an exceptionally good combination when merged with the cow sense, trainability, and temperament of Acres Destiny.”

Django’s unflappable temperament was evident from the very first interaction. He has always been a very cool, calm character, in competition, when covering mares, or riding to work. Nothing is ever a drama.

Chey and Deb say that Django was brought along like all their other horses, “With long days and plenty of wet saddle cloths”. He was broken in and trained entirely by Chey with the plan to head to Cloncurry Stockman’s Challenge in 2016. Unfortunately, he was injured for the entirety of 2016, so that did not happen. However, he stepped out in 2017 to his first campdraft and started with a win in the Maiden at Springsure. His campdrafting achievements continue to build, and he has since won two Novices and multiple cut-outs (as of June 2024).

Django is one of those rare horses that make it seem easy. According to Chey, Django’s speed and power make him an outstanding competitor.

While Chey and Deb couldn’t be happier with Django as a performance horse, they are thrilled that he is also producing exceptional progeny.   From his early progeny, it is already more than apparent that he is leaving his mark as a sire.  “He definitely puts his stamp on them”, they said.

“He produces progeny ideal for campdrafting, show, and challenge disciplines. They are consistent types, with exceptional conformation, beautiful length of rein, and a powerful hindquarter; as well as having calm, trainable temperaments.”
