The son of 2 park saddle champions, C.P. was a handsome colt, upheaded and full of himself. He was the product of a breeding program with the intent of bringing together the blood of Bennfield's Ace and UVM Promise and still hold some size. He matured into an athletic and handsome stallion, who never failed to call attention to himself. Exercising him on a longe line was likened to flying a kite. He brought all the pazazz of a morgan to stallionhood.
C.P. ended up staying here at Blue Gable Farm. As my personal horse, he was ridden dressage. We were both learning, although he had much more talent than I did. In 1995, at the second Sport Horse Keuring sponsored by the Wisconsin Morgan Horse Club, he received a *Premium* rating . Photogenic and dynamic, Central Park performed for the camera, for bystanders, and for me!

For Tribute Farm, he sired Jack Finney out of Mikk's Gay Glady (Gay Commander x Flit) and Tony Fennelly out of Andre Norton (Garwood Trophy x Mikk's Gay Glady).
Above is The Grinch, just starting his jumping and eventing career. He was an "only" foal and would not make friends, hence his barn name. He grew to be a friendly, talented, big colt with a gift for jumping.More of Central Park's offspring are pictured below.
