Over
the years, we have had the opportunity to share our lives with
many wonderful Morgan horses. In an effort to keep their memories
and spirits with us, we offer the following retrospective...
|
|


|
Cassandra
Cassie was sired by a registered Appaloosa who was also half Lippizan.
Her dam was a 1/2 Morgan (Sunnygirl by Sundust) and out of an
Appaloosa mare. One can't find much Appaloosa in her...the prepotency
of the Morgan was very apparent. She was an important member of
our family for 23 yrs and traveled with us up and down the western
US when Mike was transferred with his job.

Premier
Broodmare: Frosty Blue
(Mantic Peter Frost x Rapidan Es Mala)
Bay
Mare
June,
1986 - May, 2004
Frosty was first purchased as a 2 yr old as the future show
mare for our daughter, Dana. Shown to top ribbons and numerous
championships as a junior horse, Dana began showing her winning
consistently for the rest of her show ring career in many divisions.
From English Pleasure, Park Saddle to Park Harness and Natural
Park, this team was brilliant. Frosty had the electricity to
capture all eyes in the show ring plus the pedigree, refinement
and conformation to become one of our top producers. Dam of
Jazztime Indigo Frost (x Shiloh Bold Command; 1994), Jazztime
True Magic (x Ultimately Magic; 1996), Jazztime Simply Noted
(x DPR Noteability; 1998), Jazztime Party Boy (x Shiloh Bold
Command; 2000); Jazztime Blueprint (x Shiloh Bold Command; 2002);
Jazztime Society Page (x Shiloh Bold Command; 2002) and her
last son, Bluebird Call To Duty (x Shiloh Bold Command; 2004).
Sadly, this lovely mare had a fatal complication during the
birth of her last foal, but her beauty, charisma and disposition
live on in her get.

April 2002- November 2003
A Rockfield 'lookalike' and full sibling to Jazztime Indigo
Frost, Jazztime Party Boy, and Jazztime Society Page, this flashy
colt was western in style from tips of his ears to his perfectly
matched hind socks. Another tragic loss for our farm due to
a complication from a normal castration.

Just A High Note
(DPR
Noteability x Jazztime Just Chelsea)
foaled
2001
Tall,
talented and athletic, this mare was purchased as a 2 yr old
as a dressage prospect for our veterinarian, Katherine Burnett,
DVM, which is a supreme compliment. 'Diva' was started under
saddle by Daryl Hopson, Trafalgar, who thought she was one of
the most solid minded young mares he'd seen in a long time.
Katherine and 'Diva' continue to work toward dressage competition
as time allows for a busy veterinarian and equine dentist.

Bears
Covergirl
(Ultras
Special Agent x Lookaway's Krystal)
foaled
2002.
.....It
is with great sadness that we must report the sale of our lovely
2005 World Champion mare, Bears Covergirl to Rocky and Diana
Schliefer, Brownsville, MN. We wish them many years of tri-colors
with this beautiful, kind and talented young western pleasure
mare. We do have some consolation in that included in our sale
of 'Kate' we have retained two viable embryos by the stallion(s)
of our choice. We do plan to use these embryos in the spring
of 2007 and will be posting further information about this process.
Kate was pinned FarWest Jr WP Champion 2006. Went on to OKC
winning Grand National Champion, 4 yr old WP Mares for new owner's
Rocky and Diana Schliefer.

(Scandias
Caribbean Blue x Scandias Moonbeam) April 2005- February 2006.
This
beautiful, kind, filly was destined to be my next western pleasure
prospect but that was not to be. January 2007, Strangles was introduced
to our farm by a neighbor that failed to notify us of their outbreak
across the fence from our young stock. Before the symptoms erupted
all five head were in various stages and within three months nine
(ranging in age from 1 to 16 yrs) had been treated for weeks in
below freezing weather. We thought we were out of the woods when
lovely Celeste began to exhibit secondary symptoms and was rushed
to Washington State Equine Hospital in Pullman, WA. She was in
the rare 1% that developed the internalized version and we could
not save her. As devastating as the outbreak was for us, the loss
of this filly was traumatic and totally avoidable had the neighbor
been somewhat conscientious.
