Ed is the mare that started my love of breeding these wonderful horses. She is the kindest horse I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. She produces tall athletic youngsters that seem to be born ready to ride. They are so smart and easy. She is over 30% Thoroughbred and it shows in her progeny.
Ed was successfully shown as a Hunter in her younger years by her previous owner. She has produced 7 consistently superior offspring in the last 7 years:
Fortunate Lizzie 2001 Palomino Appendix QH mare. Lizzie was in utero when I bought Ed in 2000. Lizzie is by the TB stallion Fortunate Lisa.

Harper was a successful racehorse, racing until she was 11 years old. She then started her breeding career. I bought her second foal, a colt by Can't Be Slew, named Shorty. I liked him so much I tracked her down and bought her.
It took some time for her to figure out how to behave like a real horse. For example, you're supposed to go graze and frolic in the pasture, not stand at the gate all day. But she gets it now and she even has some cute ways to ask to be scratched.
She had a gorgeous filly, Bellasante by Idocus. This filly has those large dew laden eyes that make your heart melt. She is also very friendly and always comes right up to you to say "Hi!." She is also a nice mover so she should do well at her foal inspection with the KWPN NA.
Harper did it again! She had a beautiful bay filly by Sir Sinclair while we were away at the World Cup in Las Vegas. But with help from my great friend Melissa she was safely delivered and nursing like a pro! We named her Clair after her wonderful sire. This is Harper's last foal and she again delivered a great one.
Harper is now retired from her broodmare duties!
2005 KWPN NA Black Bay filly by Sir Sinclair. Azzlin is bred to the hilt for dressage. She has the dressage powerhouses of Flemmingh, Donnerhall, Lord Sinclair and Le Mexico in her pedigree. Her sire, Sir Sinclair, was the 2005 USEF Young Horse Championships for Dressage National 6-year-old Champion and he was the 2004 5-year-old YHC Reserve Champion. He is currently showing PSG in Florida. Her dam, Perlinda, was also successfully shown in dressage, winning ribbons at Dressage at Devon as a youngster. Azzlin is naturally round with a beautiful topline and a wonderful lightness in all of her gaits. She's a quiet girl and is friendly in a very sweet way.

2002 ISR/Oldenburg NA Buckskin mare by Holsteiner stallion Hilltop Reno (Riverman x Caretino x Landgraf I). She is the first of two sisters by Reno and out of Slick Palida -/*/-. She is going great under saddle and loves to jump. She particularly enjoys playing in the water jump and going on trial rides. "Sparky" is awesome to have around the barn since she loves attention and will follow you around everywhere. She is also a food hound and loves any and all treats. Renata had a nice dark dun colt, Gideon, by Goodtimes. He is a lot of fun! He has just the right amount of spark and personality without being too obnoxious! He is put together nicely and is a good mover. He will be a nice all around prospect for jumping or dressage.
Sparky was not bred back and is again under saddle. She is looking for a great home as a hunter or event horse. $11,000.
Born April 19, 2006 - Felicity is a uniquely colored dun. She was awarded Premium at her ISR/Oldenburg inspection with an 8.0. She has a super temperament and showed off nicely for the crowd and judges.
Fiona's sire Flemmingh just passed away recently at the relatively young age of 20. My goal was to make a trip to Holland to meet him before he passed. I thought I had another 10 years! I guess I'll just have to enjoy him through his wonderful offspring that I have! Fiona is a wonderful representative of Flemmingh's gifts to his offspring- 3 great gaits, long lined conformation, and a great personality.
