In January of 2003 long time client and friend Norma Gurkin sent her wild yet promising two year old *Soho colt "GF Omega" (pictured above) to Mike for training. Right away we new we had a special horse, that exuberant young colt quickly attracted the attention of long time breeder Marty Ryals, arrangements were made and Omega became a member of Ryalswood Arabians. A week later Omega was named Region 12 Champion Stallion. As a three year old he earned the title of Top Ten Futurity colt at US Nationals. Most recently Omega and Mike at the last US Nationals in Louisville, KY brought the house down with a memorable performance in center ring, being named a 2006 Top Ten Jr. Stallion ranking 3rd overall. Another great example of Wilson Training Center's training and marketing program at its best! Watch for Omega in 2008 as he switches gears and enters into the Western Pleasure arena with Peri Tilghman.

You look back on certain moments in time and realize how important they were. One of those moments was that cold winter night I sat in the stall with National Champion Mare *Maya El Jamaal and she gave us "Major Jamaal" (pictured above) sired by *Soho Carol. Major was a gangly weanling but by May of his yearling year he had became the young prince he had been bred to be. He was named Region 12 Champion colt, defeating the Scottsdale, Jr. Champion colt from earlier that year. Major Jamaal went on to earn more National titles under Wilson Training Center's management and was then Marketed to his adoring new owners Taylor Arabians. Soon after that Major went on to be US National Res. Champion, Jr. Stallion. Major is now doing an equally impressive job as a sire for the Taylor's. Mike also brokered the incredible *Maya El Jamaal to the Taylor's prior to there purchase of her son, this was a pivotal moment for the Taylor program. A special thanks to Michael Byatt.
 

In August of last year Mike discovered "Venetzia" (pictured above) one of the most beautiful mares in the show ring today. After a few phone calls this incredible mare was on her way to her new home in Qatar. Venetzia has taken the Middle Eastern and European show rings by storm winning several championships and positioning herself as the top contender for Jr. World Champion Mare in Paris later this year. W.T.C. congratulates Al Shaqab stud on there success and we are incredibly proud to have been involved in marketing her. A special thanks to Eric Wolfe and Michael Byatt.

Another jewel of the W.T.C. marketing program was the sale of the Res. National Champion Mare *HW Egyptian Art. A rare daughter of El Shaklan we congratulate the Al Zobair Stud of Sharja, U.A.E. Special thanks to Michael Byatt.

It was nine years ago when Mike first found a beautiful two year old filly named RGA Kouress, he immediately purchased her on behalf of long time business partner Doug Corp. A few years later he resold Kouress to Joel Desmarteau owner of Markelle Arabians along with partner Michael Wade. Since then a dynasty has been in the making. RGA Kouress produced an incredible filly "DL Marielle" (pictured above) in early 2007 W.T.C. marketed Marielle to Albidayer Stud of the U.A.E. this incredible filly is currently competing successfully on the European circuit. Special thanks to Robin Hopkinson and Scott Alman.

RGA Kouress is also the dam of World Res. Champion "Marajj" (pictured below) Marajj sold at Scottsdale 2005 for a record setting amount to Albidayer Stud. W.T.C is proud to have discovered RGA Kouress and congratulate client's and friend's Joel Desmarteau & Michael Wade on the outstanding contribution there breeding program has made. We are honored to continue the management of this aristocrat mare.

Wilson Training Center is proud to have trained and managed National winning stallion "Justa Magnum" (pictured above) We are pleased to announce the sale of this outstanding stallion to Don & Janey Morse of Oak Ridge Arabians. Special thanks to Midwest.

In Feb. of 2005 at the Scottsdale show the yearling fillies were gathering at the in-gate for a section cut. Before the cooler was even pulled off this captivating dark bay filly Mike's eye for a star told him the 5 year search for long time client and friend's Roland & Dorothy Williams was over. That filly was "Lethyf Falconesse" (pictured above) she was simply a dream came true, or so we thought, when Mike inquired about purchasing her for the Williams he received bad news, she was already spoken for and reselling was not an option. After the show Mike called one more time about the filly he could not stop thinking about, and fate would play into his hands, the previous deal had not worked out! Well, she's sold now. Those were his words before he even called the Williams to give them the news that things had gone in there favor. With a little ironing out of details, Roland & Dorothy Williams of Green Pastures Arabians owned the filly they had asked Mike to find several years before. Later that year there wildest dreams came true when Lethyf Falconesse was named Unanimous National Champion Yearling Filly! W.T.C. is unbelievably proud to have been apart of this fantastic journey. A special thanks to Robin Hopkinson, Sandro Pinha and Davis Cains.

Selecting breeding stock that not only appreciate in value but generate offspring that sell for industry high prices is a common happening for Mike and the W.T.C. clients. In 1997 Mike purchased the beautiful MP Serenata who had not yet had a single foal, with business partner Doug Corp. As he suspected she became an incredible broodmare, she was marketed twice again by Mike but not before producing National Champion Mare "Serenata El Jamaal" (pictured above). W.T.C. marketed her twice as well, the second time to noted breeders Ron & Laura Armstrong of Armstrong Arabians. The Armstrong's have done a masterful job breeding this outstanding mare who's most famed offspring "True Desire LL" (pictured below) is the leading contender for the title of National Champion Yearling Filly in 2007. After 10 years and three generations this breeding family accounts for the excess of a million dollars in transactions. W.T.C. is honored to have been apart of selecting, breeding and brokering the start of this record breaking chain of events.

In addition to marketing world class bloodstock, W.T.C also specializes in the development of National level performance horses. In December of 2005 our long time client and friend, Lauralyn Lane, asked Mike and Peri to find her the superstar performance horse of her dreams. A requirement that is Universal in our selection of stock for both breeding and showing is extreme beauty and quality. Shortly after being commissioned to find such a horse arrangements were made for the purchase of the 2 year old, 2 time Scottsdale champion H/A Jr. mare, Rohara Olivia Dhavlin. Peri immediately began preparing Olivia for the 2006 US National H/A hunter futurity. After the pair competed in their semifinal section they were voted unanimous champion of that cut. Later in the week, Olivia was named US National Top Ten in the H/A hunter futurity. 2007 began their journey towards another Nationals. They set the stage to be serious contenders winning the 2007 Region 12 H/A hunter Jr. horse championship. (Pictured above) "Once again, it is with great pride that our clients entrust us with the selection of their horses and the ability to follow through in make dreams a reality."

Always looking to the future, a then four month old KM Bugatti (pictured above) caught Mike's eye. Still on his mothers side client Doug Corp agreed with Mike's assessment and Bugatti came home to Florida. Several months later in true W.T.C. fashion Bugatti was sold again, this time to the quickly growing KM Stables program who have entrusted Mike with the management of there breeding stock. Thankful to have the opportunity to discover this young star W.T.C looks forward to many more big things with KM Bugatti.
