About
Ascada Arabians was developed by founder David Cooprider, who envisioned “a place where horses are loved and patience is never lost, where learning is fun, and there is no question that horses come first.” This philosophy shapes the facility’s relationship-centered, foundations-based training. Horses associated with the program include MCA Magnum Force, Reckoning Day, and Crazy Heart NA. For training, the facility requires current health documentation, including a negative Coggins test, vaccinations, and health certificates for out-of-state horses, and it recommends ongoing dental, chiropractic, and farrier care.
