Abbie is the most beloved champion here, partially because she is the only foal of our wildly successful gelding, Con Artist and also because she has earned respect on her own as a racer and a show horse. Upon her arrival Christmas 2006, we kept our expectations low. Although she was Connor's only child, she arrived as a barely saddle trained race horse that had no jumping experience at all. Who's to say that she'd follow her sire's path? We entered her in a few races and we quickly came to realize that we had a really talented filly on our hands. Abbie went from unproven to recieving a MHS HOTM nomination and grew increasingly popular over her time in the limelight. CCI soon became more credible as a stable and Abbie paved the way for other CCI champions to surface. Abbie recieved more and more attention and success on the track, even winning CCI's first Breeder's Cup race. She unfortunately sustained an injury from that big win and we put her on stall rest for a few months at our vet's suggestion. Then we plunged into the world of eventing and hunters. She took it all with a grain of salt like the hard working girl that she is! She is always willing to try something new and has the same love for jumping that her sire has. She's had many successes in the show ring and is a seasoned competitor, rare at her age. Abbie's wonderful on the ground too, although not overly affectionate. She appreciates time alone and prefers that people weren't in her face ALL the time! She's adjusted well to the attention that her success has brought her and rarely gets overwhelmed, making her a great mount for anyone. She's very silly when she's not working and loves to play games with the staff. Her favorite game currently is tag, which consists of her chasing the CCI staff members around the pasture and tagging them with her muzzle. She usually wins! She also absolutely adores jellybeans, just like Dad. Maybe it runs in the family... We really adore this mare and cannot wait to see her continue to grow as a show horse.

Evaluations
ABSTRACT ARTIST Name: I adore it. I don't understand the 'abstract' part though... And the relation to her dam's name.. *ponders* [8] Past Performance: Pretty good. She's overcome quite the few experienced racers. Very nice racing average aswell. We'll see how she does in a larger race. [8] Lines: The lack of the mare around, and no link to her to boot-dropped her score down quite a bit, unfortunately. Her sire is amazing, but it takes two-and all I see in one. [7] Care: Blah blah blah. [10] Activity: Very active, but not really well known. She can't prove herself if she doesn't kick it up a notch and get into more prestigious events, and on other grounds aswell.. [8] Future Potential: She's definently stolen my heart, and has done well know-I think she has what it takes to be great. Don't get cocky now Brandy. *sticks out tongue* [10] Progeny: None are born yet; can't wait to see Fleeting foal out of her. [N/A] Photograph: GORGEOUS. She needs some racing pictures though, since that is her current personality. [8] Realism: Nice realistic stats. Blah blah blah. [10] SEVENTY-NINE/NINTY [given by MD]
She was one of my favorite filly racers. - [Soliel]
This girl is ah-mazing! Absolutely stunning! - [Otto]
Abstract Artist is new to the arena/track but has quickly/swiftly won over everyone's heart and has beaten some of the top fillies/mares out there. Her spectacular win at the HS Breeders Cup has put her on the charts and we can't wait to see what comes next. - [midnightdreams]
