"Oh it was great! Monty was just terrific! He was the biggest, most gangly two year old out there, but he was sooo well behaved. You would have been so proud. He was amongst some VERY nice horses, Camille! And, as a warm-blood, he really had alot cut out to compete against! He was sooooo well-behaved, and sooooo pretty! He was well beat by two Tbs who were much much more mature, as they always are. But he was the classiest, and had the biggest step, and you know he will be the best three years from now. But, he DID look beautiful, I don't mind saying so myself! And  he marched around so sweetly! Never ever to be sold, for ANY amount. I took him for a hack yesterday at home and had such a great time. He is so family oriented too. The PERFECT show horse! Yes, you would have been very proud, Camille!!"
- Rebecca Bailey, owner Czarmani, after IHF East Coast, in email 9/2/03



"Here is a picture of Alec at the Waco show. Alec is now two (turned two in March) and is at least 16.1 hands. He's a beautiful mover..... He now goes into lessons with other horses. Jim (Hensen, trainer) even did a flying lead change on him already (he wouldn't have asked - but Alec practically did it on his own). He will be at the Futurity in Kentucky this year for the 2 year old on the line and under saddle class."
- Vickie Marvich, owner in e-mail 7/8/03



  
"This mare (Asterick) is going to be a star.  I can’t say enough good things about her.  You can’t teach that jumping style, it's talent."
- Todd Wisegarver, Trainer, Charlotte, NC

  


"Thanks Camille, I always recommend you and your stallion to anyone I come in contact with, because you don't just get your money and then ignore your customers; you have worked with me all the way through Gilby's (Czar Appeal) growing up stages; we both thank you... It's hard to find breeders like that!!"
- Sandra Mann, e-mail June 6, 2003

 

 
"It brought tears to my eyes. Rick was like "Why are you crying?" and I said ‘I’m so lucky to own a horse like this." 
- Dawn Fogel, owner of Osczar, after perfect 100 round
 


"Hi- I just wanted to share with you what a WONDERFUL Alla' Czar colt my mare had. It was her first foal so we were all a bit on edge, but he's perfect and HUGE. I am SO impressed! He has so much personality- already rather independent from Georgia (mare) and SO curious, friendly, and smart! He was perfect when the vet drew blood, perfect when we put his halter on for the first time, he's just PERFECT! I named him Aczpen ("Aspen"), and I plan on nominating him IHF and getting him approved. I already love him as it is and he is definitely going to be FUN to train! So- just wanted to let you know how nice Aczpen is and tell you how thrilled we are with him! I'll definitely be in touch to breed Georgia to Alla' Czar again... they make a great cross! I attached a couple pictures of my handsome guy at 5 days..(see foals 2003 photo album) and thanks again for such a fantastic baby!"

"I love your yearling, (Zig Czar) she really has 'the look'."
- Dianne Grod, Hunter Breeding Judge, Harvest Breed Show, 1998 

  


"Between the ages of 4 months and 24 months of age, it is difficult to visualize the elegant young horse that will emerge.  It is called the 'ugly' stage"
- Hilda Gurney Warmblood Magazine 2001
 

 
"He (Apollo) has become a celebrity at the barn.  "Is that the tall baby"  And quite a few 
"Wow's" when he is out about how gorgeous he is.  We will try and get more pictures in a few weeks.  He has been just awesome.  The shoer trimmed his feet and he had never been asked to 

pick up his feet before and the shoer complimented me on how well trained he was!  Trust me this is all Czar's temperment."

- Stephanie Bennett 5/17/01 in email to Camille Greer re:  Apollo '01 colt 
 

 
"I would just like to say she (2001 filly, Rainey) has been a dream to work with. I have never had a foal of my own but have been around them for quite awhile. She is so easy to work with and extremely smart. She was leading like a pro the first time she ever had a halter on. She picked her feet up and let us rasp them better than my four year old has ever been. 
Her attitude is extremely easy going and it takes quite a lot to spook her. We were thinking of calling her Czing but she really does not posses much Czing. She is kinda pokey most of the time, which is fine by me. LOL "

"Ziggy (Zig Czar) just went back to Peter (Pletcher) and he LOVES her. Says she jumps GREAT!!!!  She showed in Gulfport and won her hack, got 3, 4 and 5th in her 1st show, then reserve champ. second week...now she is at a show with Peter in Texas. Peter is also taking her to Ky in May!!  You would be very proud!  A friend in Houston came up and said, 'I want that horse with 
the crooked blaze, who is it...'  I told them she is MINE!!!" 

 - Cindy Langston  owner Zig Czar in email to Camille Greer, 4/1/01
 

 
"We (Robin Dahl and Ce' Czar) showed in Dec. in St. Louis for our 3'6" premier.  Mindy (Mindy Coleman, trainer) was Reserve Champion in the 1st Year and I (Robin Dahl, owner) was Champion in the A/O's.  So, we are off to a great start for the 2000 show year!  I am expecting big things from him this year at 3'6".  The higher the jump the better he is, and he loves to show!  He has a group of fans wherever he goes!  It is thrilling to own such a talented, sweet horse.  I really do believe Alla' Czar throws quality and I am proud to be part of all this!" 
- Robin Dahl Dec. '99
 

 
 
"I loved him from the very first ride.  I’d never sat on a horse that big, at that age, with such phenomenal natural balance."
 - Rick Fancher about Osczar

  


  
"Hi, nice to meet you.  Do you have any more like him (Osczar) at home?"
 - Leo Conroy when meeting Alla' Czar's owner, Camille Greer at the 1998 AZ finals

  


  
"They only show him (Osczar) lightly, but he continues in his winning ways.  We’ll probably see him in The Chronicle.  They love him!  Best of luck. Alla’Czar is a wonderful stallion."
- Maureen Martin, Osczar’s breeder, 1994

  


  
"He’s perfect, like a 9 year old horse. This was the first time we won all three classes at regionals, and we’ve won eight of the 13 (regionals)."
- Otis Brown (Brownie) after The Chairman's '98 Midwest Regional IHF Sweep 
>

  


  
"Brownie says The Chairman is the easiest futurity horse he’s ever had, and thats a bold statement from man who has been sending horses to the IHF since its inception 13 years ago." 
- Cynthia Sansone Owner of The Chairman.

  


  
"They (Alla' Czar's offspring) all can jump. I want to see your 2 year olds."
- Brownie in conversation with Camille Greer

  


  

"I am very impressed with Alla' Czar because he passes on good temperment, easy trainability, beautiful movement, elegant appearance and an ability to excel at both dressage and jumping.  I therefore, wish Alla' Czar’s new owner (Darkhorse Farm) much sucess."
- Carole Hobbins, Safe Haven Farm, Courtenay, BC. Carole is the owner of an Alla' Czar mare that has produced two premium foals.

  


  
"Their temperment is amazing! I never get tired telling people how nice it is to have such quiet horses. I went out on a trail ride with a friend and her horse was bouncing all around and Brise (Abend Brise) was walking on the buckle. She calls my horse 'Brise the Wonder Mare,' since she is such a teriffic amateur horse."
- Hollie Wilent, CA, owner of two Alla' Czar offspring

  


  
"Remember my mare 'Miss Behavin', an Alla' Czar premium mare?  She was in foal to Riverman and she had a colt and he was just inspected by ISR/Oldenburg. He is the 1999 East Coast Grand Champion!  Not only that, he now holds the highest overall score EVER in the United States for a colt!!!  I'm so tickled I can’t stand it. I just thought you would want to see what the get of Alla’Czar is producing!  Thanks for a teriffic mare!"
- Denise Bryant, Bryant Farm, 1999

Breeders note:  This colt is named Rivermoon and his overall score was 81.1 points.

  


  
"It pleases me a great deal that he's (Osczar) become a ride Dawn can win on in the amateurs. That's always been the plan."
- Rick Fancher after The Chronicle's Show Hunter of the Year Award 1998
 

 
"Here is a picture of Brise from the last big show in Portola Valley (CA). 
It's not the best picture, but she was great - she just steps over the 3 foot 

stuff, she's ready to move up to a bigger fence as soon as I am... she's always so 

good with her front end and she puts up with me!"

- Hollie Wilent, amateur, June '00
