A fortuitous combining of two of the most prolific sires of contemporary Arabian bloodlines – National Champions Fame VF+ and Echo Magnifficoo – has created the magnificent Champion Odyssey SC … The Sire! Odyssey is the embodiment of the beauty and type of the Fame VF/Versace sire line, coupled with the tall, stretchy silhouette and perfect conformation of Echo Magnifficoo. Odyssey’s type, presence and conformation have been recognized and applauded in the show ring by judges and astute Arabian breeders alike. Beginning his show career as a yearling colt, Odyssey won the Scottsdale Breeders Cup Junior Championship in 2000, took the Region 9 Championship Sweepstakes title unanimously, and then was named Top Ten at the U.S. National Championships. From there, it was on to back-to-back National Championships in the Stallion Futurities at the Canadian and U.S. National Championships in 2002. In 2006 Odyssey SC returned to the national arena and claimed the title of Canadian Reserve National Champion Stallion. Though his titles and career as a show horse have been exceptional, it is as a sire that Odyssey will achieve legendary status within the Arabian breed. His first foals took the national circuit by storm in 2003 and 2004 and with only four years of show ring appearances, have accumulated ~ Three U.S. National Top Ten Awards Three Canadian National Top Ten Awards 16 Regional Championships 14 Regional Reserve Championships One Amateur Regional Championship One Amateur Reserve Regional Championship 21 Regional Top Five Awards 15 Regional Top Ten Awards Five Scottsdale Show Top Five Awards Four Scottsdale Show Top Ten Awards He also sired his first International National Champion when an Odyssey SC son was named South African National Champion Junior Colt. |
