I AM THE PARTY
Category : Web, Logo, Advertisements
We began advertising for I Am The Party, affectionately known as "Benji" in the Fall of 2017 when his owner Dr Ted Filandrianos decided to stand him at North Farm. Benji has become both a Congress and World Champion in Performance Halter in the time that we have had the opportunity of advertising for him. We are extremely excited to see Benji's future success in the showpen and as a breeding stallion.
ABOUT I AM THE PARTY
I Am The Party (Benji) is a 16-hand, 2014 chestnut stallion, just starting his breeding career after amassing quite the show record. Pennsylvania trainer Jonathan Meilleur started the colt at 18 months of age and describes him as a “sponge.”
“He’s so willing to learn, since he wants nothing more than to please,” Meilleur said. “He just ‘gets’ everything you want, and he’s got such a big heart that he never wants to be in trouble. He’s also so quiet and good that my 8-year-old daughter goes in his stall all the time, and can walk him around with just a regular snap on the lead, that’s how laid back he is. Benji loves all sorts of treats, and is very careful about how he takes it from your hand, he barely grabs it at all.”
And although he is only a 5-year-old, Benji has already proven his success in the show arena.
He is an AQHA World and Congress Champion and has earned superior awards in both Open and Amateur Performance Halter.
“Benji is the epitome of ‘Form to Function,’” Dr. Filandrianos said. “He has a strong shoulder, well set neck, short back, immense heart girth, stand up wither, big hip and straight legs, along with a beautiful head.”
Benji has also excelled in the Western Pleasure arena, earning a win in the 3- Year-Old Intermediate Open Western Pleasure at the Little Futurity, a Reserve in that same class at the Tom Powers Futurity and Top 15 placings at the All-American Quarter Horse Congress.
And now Meilleur is adding other events. With just four months of experience showing in the event, I Am The Party placed 15th in the Green Junior Trail at the Congress, with a total of 116 entries.
“He always gives you 100 percent and wants to please with every stride,” Meilleur said.
Conformation, ability and trainability are what makes I Am The Party such an exceptional horse, Dr. Filandrianos said.
