Neon Dieon comes from the breeding program of TWHBEA Master Breeder recipient, Paige Edwards. He is by the great Pride's Generator and out of Sophia, a direct daughter of Pride's Gold Coin. Paige Edwards grew up in the walking horse industry. As an exhibitor, she claimed 10 world championships before leaving the show ring behind to focus on her first loves, her broodmares and the babies they produce. Her residence in Dawson, Georgia is home to 15 top-notch broodmares and the farm where her husband Gary and brother-in-law Larry train is home to nearly 100 more. Paige’s breeding philosophy is straight forward - breed well bred mares to well bred stallions. To her, bloodlines are everything and she has found a great deal of success combining such lines as Generator, Hard Cash, Pusher, Ritz and Jose. The horses produced by her program include 1996 World Grand Champion and multi-titled Sire of the Year He’s Puttin’ On The Ritz, World Champion Gen’s Dixie Crystals, World Champion and World Grand Champion The Dixie Lineman, World Champion Sugarland, World Champion Neon Deion, World Grand Champion Palm Beach Ritz and World Champion Neon Bright. For Paige, nothing comes close to the thrill of raising a world champion.
