The Basics

1995 Dapple Grey Thoroughbred Mare, 16.0hh
Equine Database: 0686

Old Growth x Cruella
Foaled: January 1, 1995
Broodmare, retired equitation and hunter horse

Cancer is just an amazingly awesome girl. She's a stellar mom and she's embraced her role as broodmare with her whole heart. We swear, the minute her competition career was over (thanks to an unfortunate stumble in the equitation ring), she took to being a mommy like water takes to a towel. Cancer is named after the star Cancer and not the disease. She truly does shine like a star, so we're so happy to have her around. This lovely mare has brilliant jumping form and a natural understanding of rhythm so with the right boy, she can produce anything from a winning Big Eq horse to a floating dressage foal. It's up to you!

Cancer is most well-known for her foal Zodiac Reality Star, who was bred for Ellie of Paragon Sport Horses. He quickly became one of their top hunter and equitation horses and has since sired four offspring of his own. Cancer has also given us a huge surprise in the amazing Zodiac Nuclear Winter, who is a 2009 Triple Crown participant in the racing world.
