Century Nightmusic is exotically beautiful and powerfully bred. His sire, Stonecroft Byzantine, needs no introduction as a show horse or a sire. Music's dam is Appleton Baroness, one of the great producers of the breed. Music has a long, elegant, upright neck with a "shepherd's hook" turn at the top, tiny throatlatch, sculptured head and expressive eyes--plus a great shoulder and topline. Nightmusic was the Junior Champion Stallion at the 2002 Gold Cup Regional. Surgery shifted his career from show ring to breeding shed. His first foals arrived in 2005 and they are creating a buzz with all who have seen them. Breeders have an old axiom, "blood will tell." Century Nightmusic has much to say: Make your own kind of "Music".
