It is sometimes said that an individual has “The Midas Touch,” meaning that everything they touch turns to gold - that everything they do, they do extremely well. In the world of Arabian horses, Jake Jamaal JCA+/ definitely has that golden touch. Everything he does, he does extremely well. Some horses excel in halter competition - they seem to know that they are exceptional individuals and they actually respond to the cheers and adulation from the spectators. The more the crowd cheers, the more the horse seems to like it and doubles its efforts to show. Some horses do well in performance competition - they seem to enjoy the work and having a job to do, as well as the interpersonal relationship that develops between a horse and rider. Jake Jamaal JCA+/ is one of the rare individuals that have succeeded in both halter and performance competition on the regional and national level. Jake began his halter career with a Region II Top Five Sweepstakes Yearling Colt award, he was also the unanimous Cal-Bred Futurity Yearling Colt and he went on to be named a U.S. National Top Ten Sweepstakes Yearling Colt. Later, he was named Region III Champion Stallion and that same year he was named Cal-Bred Futurity Champion Colt and U.S. National Reserve Champion Futurity Colt. Having won just about everything a halter horse can win, his owner and devoted friend, Manny Lawrence decided to give Jake a well earned rest. One of Manny's greatest delights in this world is being close to his favorite friend, Jake Jamaal. Manny never tires of seeing him, giving him a scratch and just hanging out with his golden boy. However, Manny soon sensed that Jake was getting restless and decided to put him back to work. Thus began Jake Jamaal's performance career as a western pleasure horse. Under the soft hands and gentle guidance of Cynthia Burkman, Jake Jamaal JCA+/ became one of the most handsome western pleasure horses to ever be presented in the show ring. He started out placing and winning at local shows in California where the competition is always among the deepest. He was named Pacific Slopes Western Pleasure Junior Horse Champion, Region II Pre Show Western Pleasure Junior Horse Champion, Region II Western Pleasure Junior Horse Champion and 2005 U.S. National Western Pleasure Junior Horse Top Ten. The steady climb from the first time he wore leather to becoming an accomplished performance horse and being named one of the ten best western pleasure junior horses in the United States, says a lot about Jake Jamaal JCA+/.
