The horses featured in The Dancing Horses show were the result of a breeding program taking place at the Sugar Legacy Arabian Farm founded in the 1980s. The premier breeding stallion at the time was Baskin-Robbins, a purebred bay Arabian foaled in 1979. Baskin-Robbins had an illustrious show career that spanned 16 years.
