Jetstar's Sunrider

Jetstar's Sunrider, affectionately known as "Rambo" was originally registered as a chestnut, but he was actually a chocolate (sooty) palomino. He was foaled in 1986, a son of Merry Man's Charm a direct daughter of Sun's Merry Man. Sun's Merry Man was one of only four offspring by Reycliff Mid-Merry, better known as the show horse, Hill's Perfection, and the ONLY offspring to reproduce.

Sunrider produced only three foals before he was gelded: Sunrider's Gold Boot (palomino stallion), Blue Gold (cremello stallion), and Sunrider's Delight (palomino gelding).

Memories of Jetstar's Sunrider

By Karen Johnson

Rambo was his stable name that his owner called him. He belonged to a man in Wheatridge. I was in Denver looking through the horse ads and came across his ad. He wanted someone to train his stallion in exchange for a year's lease on the stallion. Rambo hadn't been registered yet, so that was part of the agreement that we took care of the paper work. He was a very gentle stallion and liked to watch our young children at play across the fence.

He once chased an elk out of our pasture, I wish I had photos of that!!

Soon after we returned Rambo in January of 1990, his owner gelded him.
