Biography
With a career spanning 13 years beginning in 1990 winning his 1st National Championship in Freedom Hall, Good Thunder was a standout in the English/Driving Divisions throughout the decade.
But the new millennium brought with it a new career for Good Thunder and is probably the "Good Thunder Fan Club" favorite - Mounted Native Costume. For 4 consecutive years, 2000-2003, Good Thunder won the US National Championship in Arabian Mounted Native Costume AAOTR, an unprecedented feat. In 2003 he was ultimately awarded the National Championship in the Open Division as well. His glorious career makes him the Winningest Arabian Stallion of All Time. Good Thunder returns to Freedom Hall where he was crowned his first national championship to be formally retired for all to remember the full circle of his achievement.
