Saddlebred Spotlight: Jim Aikman
With his beloved All American Cup just around the corner enjoy this spotlight on James "Jim" W. Aikman.
He was an exceptional dedication and passion for the American Saddlebred. Jim was one of the strongest advocates, innovators, and leaders of breeding promotion the breed will ever know. Jim's legacy will be remembered through his All American Cup program, the impact of the horses he bred at Hide-A-Way Farms, and the tremendous mentorship he offered to our community. Among the many acknowledgments of his contributions to the breed, he was the recipient of the 1989 CJ Cronan Sportsmanship Award, 2006 ASHA Lifetime Achievement Award, and 2016 ASHA Meritorious Service Award.
