Nexavar aka "Nex" |
| |
 2006
Brown Quarter Horse Stallion(Bully
Bullion x Beautiful Dreams - Majors Meyers, Shawne Bug)
Nex spent this year tagging along to
shows exhibitioning. He joined us for the trip to
Murfreesboro, TN, for the ARHA World Show where the mares competed in
barrels. The stallion conformation (halter) class was the next
day, so we decided to enter him and he WON it! So, he is now a
WORLD CHAMPION halter horse! He is getting ready for the 2010
futurity season. We will begin the end of December in South
Carolina. We are anxiously awaiting first foal crop which is due
this spring. Please look for more pictures and information
under At Stud tab at the top.

Hi
Flyin Sign aka "Smoke" |
| |
 1999
Brown Quarter Horse mare(Vital Sign x
Decked For Cash - an own daughter of Dash For Cash)
Smoke is the first barrel horse I
ever trained. She has taught me soooo much! Her
accomplishments include top ten finishes at the AQHA Congress in the
Sweepstakes and Junior Barrel racing as well as top five placings at the
NYS finals and ARHA World Championship shows and many 1D winnings.

She is currently bred to our three
year old stallion, Nexavar, for a 2010 foal. We are still deciding
if she will come back to barrel racing or raise another foal or two
first. |

Gold Liquidity aka "Ally" |
 2002
Brown Quarter Horse mare(Bully Bullion
x Miss Liquidity - an own daughter of First Down Dash)
Ally is a very special mare.
Her small size does not deter her at all in competing with the bigger
boys. She has finished in the top five at the Colonial Nationals, AQHA World show, ARHA
World show, and several major futurities in the US and Canada. She
currently holds the arena record at TWO arenas. Ally enjoys
her job and will be competing at major events across the US and Canada
this year.

Doris aka "Dory" |
 2007
Bay Quarter Horse mare(A Regal Choice
x Hard Hearted Chick - Chicks Beduino)
Dory raced briefly as a two year
old, then came home to NY. She is currently trail riding and
beginning ring work. She will travel with us next year to
exhibition, then compete in barrel racing futurities in 2011.
Though she is very opinionated, she may be one of the most athletic
2 year olds I have had the privilege of riding. |

Classy
Bars Affair aka "Jimmy" |
 Jimmy
is one of our wonderful lesson horses. He is retired from a
successful career as an english and western show horse.
His slooooow western jog is smooth enough for the most green beginner to
enjoy, and his rocking horse lope is great for building confidence. Thanks to good friend Jim Barton for
sharing this fantastic horse with us.

Brown Appaloosa geldingRoll The Cash x

Norman's Favorite aka "Normy" |
2007 Brown Quarter
Horse Gelding
General Stormin
Norman x Favorite Task
Norman is as sweet as they come. He could go
back to racing this year - he has lots of eligibilities as he has not
broken his maiden yet, but he has never been out of the money! He would
also be happy to go on to a second career as a hunter. He is already 16
hands high and will walk trot and canter with a simple lead change and
trail ride. Normy is for sale for $4000.
2008 Sorrel Quarter
Horse Mare
The Carona x Dreaming
Apollo Style
AC is going to be two years old. Her
sire is by the great race horse Carona Cartel (SI 101) and her dam is by
Apollo (Tb). Her mother had an 89 SI so we have high hopes for this
filly to make a great race horse. She is getting broke and will be
heading out to Michigan to begin her race career.
