*ON COMMISSION* “Lucy” One Dreams Lucy (Beyond Blonde X Way West (FR)) - 2023 Sport-bred Dark Bay/Black Registered Thoroughbred Mare

Meet Lucy, one of the most naturally gifted and talented young horses we’ve ever had in our program thus far. She has an unique story, which makes her an excellent candidate for a sport career.

Lucy has been hand-raised by a single owner her entire life. She has been exposed to everything and anything since birth. She’s always had great handling, excellent nutrition, medical care, farrier care, dental care, daily care, and positive experiences. Along with her exceptional breeding, the result is a beautiful, mature, sound, balanced and confident young mare with the whole world awaiting her.

We are lucky to have spent a lot of time with her prior to listing. She has been in our training program since August of 2025. By the time it was backing day (her birthday), it was a walk in the park. She never once lost her cool or balance. Since then, she has been developing her gaits and transitions, working on bending, hacking out around the farm, popping over a couple small jumps, playing “soccer” with a giant ball, and has even played lesson pony with a JR. She knows her leads, she knows some basic verbal commands, and she’s learning some basic lateral aids.

Lucy has a beautiful, swinging walk, a toe-flicking trot, and a slow, uphill, rhythmical canter. Her gaits are much more mature than her actual age. She is learning to find the contact and drive from behind. She very rarely spooks at anything, she is remarkably level-headed under saddle. She is accepting of the leg, seat, and hand. Her topline is quite the sight: it’s upward development is truly shocking for her age.

Because she has been in professional training with us for almost a year, she has had the opportunity to become proficient in lots of activities, including lunging, long lining, raised poles, tarp training, Parelli basics, hill work, and in-hand work.

Part of what makes Lucy so unique is her heritage: her sire, Beyond Blonde, is a TRUE palomino Thoroughbred who was successful as a jumper and dressage horse. This means Lucy carries the possibly of producing a palomino or chestnut foal. Her half-siblings by Beyond Blonde are successfully developing as hunters, eventers, and dressage horses.

The great thing about a horse with one owner: her entire history, down to the smallest detail, is available to you! (Also, baby pictures!) If you have any specific questions about Lucy, please do not hesitate to ask. Our website will also have more details about her and may answer some of the questions you might have.

We believe that Lucy would be an excellent hunter or dressage prospect, and also an excellent candidate for a sport breeding program. She is a quality young horse truly deserving of a sport and/or breeding career with expansive opportunity. To thrive, she requires an experienced handler and an involved, consistent program.

“Leona” JC: Dama Leona (Baptisty X Man From Eldorado) 2013 aprox 16hh Bay Thoroughbred Mare

Not one single bad word can be said about this fantastic mare! Not only is she easy on the eyes, but she is also brimming with a gentle, kind, and willing personality. Leona is the epitome of an “old school” Thoroughbred - broad, sturdy, great bone, soft eyes, perfect angles and a big, beautiful head. She is up for any activity, whether or not she is worked every day or once in a while. She can be described as very "well broke."

Seriously - she is THAT girl!

Leona is happy to work in the sandbox on her circles, leg yields, transitions, halts and bending. She is lovely and soft in the mouth, she actively searches for the hand, and really wants to do the job right. Her gaits are compact and very rideable for an AA or JR. Go ahead and sit deep - she really doesn’t mind!

She also jumps both in the arena and outside over natural elements. She has not once batted an eye at any jump since being in the program, and is more than willing to fit in strides to a crummy distance. She jumps straight, honest and to the point. She would be a great hunter and equitation duel mount.

Leona is as gentle on the ground as she is under saddle. She is very quiet in the crossties, fantastic in the wash rack, great for needles, and has no objections to handling. She trailers great as well.

She is great for hacking out and trail riding, and is not looky any anything - cars, animals, people, other horses. She also lunges and long lines very well - she keeps the pace without slowing down or rushing. She loves pole work too!

After her slow racing career, she was restarted as a general riding and jumping horse, then had a couple foals. She’s been treated very well her entire life, obvious by her fantastic physical condition and mental softness.

She carries a few of the greats in her pedigree - Northern Dancer and Mr. Prospector being the most notable. With her striking good looks, beautiful personality and pedigree - it’s no wonder she was bred!

Leona enjoys a simple life in the program - she has 24/7 access to forage, turn-out all day long with her friends (she is very submissive and low on the totem pole), a handful of ration balancer twice a day, and works a few times a week. She uses very simple tack.

She has solid (and barefoot!) feet, cool, tight legs and joints, and clear lungs and eyes. She shows no sign of lameness, inconsistency of gait, limitations, or loss of function.

Leona would be suitable for:
Dressage
Hunters/Equitation
Fox Hunting
Lower-level Eventing
Trail Riding
General Western
Sport Breeding Program
Lesson/Lease Program

A very, very, very special young man has arrived. One of the most unique horses we’ve ever had in the program! Stay tuned!

"James Brown" JC: Baagy (Tamarkuz X Marju) 2019 aprox.17.0 Thoroughbred Gelding

This is the big, long-legged, naturally gifted, good-natured, rugged athlete that is bred to the 9’s and is willing to take you all the way! Mr. Brown is the type of horse who would happily work with you all day long, but is cool enough to leave sit for days at a time without coming back to all your ridden work undone. Enough cannot be said about this horse - from his lovely, uphill gaits to his sweet, in-your-pocket personality - he will be someone’s horse of a lifetime who wants to be successful just as much as his rider does.

In the ring, he’s all business. He’s the “born on the bit” type, and understands contact with the hand very well. His gaits are lofty, swinging, uphill and fun to ride (his walk is a huge highlight for any dressage rider), he is incredibly proficient at bending, and he is beginning to develop a sense of lateral movement in the shoulders and the haunches. He is started over small fences in the arena and natural elements in the field. He’s very careful, and tends to over-jump. Seriously, this guy is a blast!

Mr. Brown stands very well for the vet and the farrier, leads in and out from the pasture, and ties and cross ties. He is a lovely partner for a hack/trail ride - can be ridden out on the buckle. He’s not looky, and tolerates vehicles very well. He has done very well with mounted opening gates, opening doors, handing objects, etc. In our program, we expose all of our horses to practical, real life scenarios as much as we can.

His pedigree is absolutely jaw dropping. His sire, Tamarkuz, is best known for his 2016 Breeder’s Cup Dirt Mile win and carries all the greats in his pedigree - Storm Cat (our favorite sire), Mr. Prospector, Secretariat, Seattle Slew, and Northern Dancer. James’ paternal grandsire, Speightstown, needs no introduction - he has been one of the nation’s leading sires, is known for producing phenomenal sporthorses, and has produced some of the most successful racing offspring of the 2000’s and 2010’s.

James’ routine is very simple - he lives outside (but also stalls extremely well), eats a simple mix of grain 2 times a day, and loves to graze and be with his buddies. He’s low on the totem pole, greets you at the gate, and is easy to halter. He lunges well, is happy to participate in ground pole activities, and is ridden in simple tack.

He has solid feet, cool, tight legs and joints, and clear lungs and eyes. He shows no sign of lameness, inconsistency of gait, or loss of function.

He is being lovingly offered by a small, classical-riding-based program.

Mr. Brown would be suitable for:

Dressage
Eventing
Show Jumping
Fox Hunting
Trail riding

Suitable for AA/JR in a program or PRO looking to produce an athlete.

“Showdown” JC: Showdown Justice (Harry’s Holiday X Flower Alley) 2020 aprox.16.1 bay Thoroughbred Gelding

LAZY & SWEET - AA & JR FRIENDLY - VERSATILE - HOP ON AND GO - THICK & COMFORTABLE - MANAGEABLE GAITS

Showdown is an instant barn favorite! He greets you at the gate/stall with a sweet expression and big, gentle eyes - ready for any activity you want to do. Want to go trail riding or hack around the farm with your friends? How about throwing him in the trailer for a day off-property camping or fox hunting? A fence, log, rock or anything will do as a mounting block when you get there! He gets along with other horses fabulously, too. Want to hop around a little course and practice your jumping? Showdown is point-and-shoot, and never rushes before or after fences! A little dressage schooling more your speed today? He has very manageable, cute gaits and he loves to practice his “stretchy circles.” Cross country schooling? He looks very cute over natural elements and isn’t a puller! Western more your style? He fits very well into western tack!

This wide, thick guy is disguised as a QH. He has a big, wide head and eyes, a thick neck, a round butt, sturdy legs, a wide ribcage, a wide, comfortable back and solid feet. His topline really has to be seen to be believed, especially for his age. His walk is the type you could ride for miles at a time, his trot is very quaint and ridable, and his canter is rocking and comfortable. Go ahead and put plenty of leg on him! He is comfortable with a lot of leg and hand, and has a well-developed, cheeky sense of humor. He is a great listener, a great kisser, and has a glint of silliness in his eyes. He is wise well beyond his years!

In our program, we absolutely love the Storm Cat line, and this guy is no exception to the great animals produced by this line. With the added benefit of the Mr. Prospector influence, it’s no wonder Showdown is as classy and level-headed as he is. He was a favorite on the track for his good nature.

Showdown is a “lesson pony” type, and would mesh well with any rider looking for a reliable companion for low-level area riding or a fantastic trail partner, or a program looking to add a fresh face to their lineup.

Showdown would be suitable for:

Low-level Hunters

Dressage

Low-level Eventing

Fox Hunting

Trails

General Western

Showdown’s Essentials:

Feet - barefoot (rec shoes or hoof boots if spending a lot of time on sharp rocks)

“Mystic” JC: Ms Teek (Munnings X Gold Spring)
15.2 2015 TB Mare

Whether you are interested in getting your USDF Bronze, placing in Hunter classes and hacks, exploring lower-level eventing, trail riding/Fox hunting, or a combination of the above - this lady is your mount! She’s even the right size and temperament to be a polo pony!

At 15.2 with lovely, ridable gaits, Mystic is as inviting and fun as it gets. Now having proven herself safe and reliable with multiple AA’s, she will be the horse of a lifetime for a lucky rider.

She has full changes both directions, is jumping courses, hacks out beautifully around the farm, is schooling dressage basics including canter-walk and simple changes. She always respects the bit (great brakes!), she understands the seat, and is eager to please. Bonus: she does not require shoes!

Mystic wants to be loved. She is cuddly, gentle, and will lay down in her stall with you.

She is a proven mama, and features phenomenal bloodlines (her sire, Munnings, carries a current stud fee of 45 THOUSAND - one of the most desirable TB stallions on the scene today). She is of the Storm Cat line, making her another example of the reliably excellent horses of this bloodline. She would be a great addition to a sport-TB, Warmblood, or pony-cross breeding program.

“Wild Cherry” JC: Wildcat Princess (Wildcat Red X Bold Truth) 2022 approx.16.2 Thoroughbred Chestnut Mare

If you are looking for a TRUE push-ride, AA-friendly unicorn that is as gorgeous as she is quiet - we have your girl! We might call her “Wild Cherry,” but she is anything but wild - she doesn’t know the meaning of the word “fast”!

“Cherry” is the beautiful red mare every JR/AA, Pro with a leasing/lesson program, and breeder dreams about. She is BROAD - with every part of her conformation oozing “big and flashy” - she is sure to get you noticed everywhere you go. She is extraordinarily easy to handle, with big, soft eyes always looking to you for love and direction. Born with relaxation, rhythm, looseness, and maturity in every step, you would never suspect her age. She’s happy to stand and chat on a loose rein, plod along on the buckle, or show off her comfortable, uphill gaits. Her aura is so wonderful to be with, she is sure to make any bad day instantly better.

Her first rides with us were remarkably unremarkable. Unlike many Thoroughbreds, she just isn’t interested in getting anywhere fast. Go ahead and put as much leg on as you want, she isn’t going to overreact and she’s great at taking a joke. You don’t have to hang on her mouth, just enjoy your ride. Dreaming of dressage or the hunter ring? She has plenty enough air time in her gorgeous trot to put you in the ribbons every time. She also already shows aptitude for very easy natural changes.

“Cherry” has already played lesson pony for a kid, been popped over a handful of small jumps, mastered trot poles, experienced plenty of groundwork, and been started in longlines. She is excellent on the lunge line, but you definitely don’t need to lunge her before you get on! Though we haven’t been able to ride out of the ring because of weather, we have no doubt she will be phenomenal on the trails.

We unfortunately scheduled her shipping during the blizzard of the year, but that didn’t bother her at all. She happily loaded onto our small Euro-trailer in white-out conditions, and munched on hay all the way to the barn - through traffic jams, long hauls through the backroads, and while the snow trucks threw salt against the side of the trailer.

She falls asleep in the cross ties, begs for affection, is clean and tidy in her stall, and generally is a joy to have around. She gives excellent hugs and kisses. She is wonderful with people and other horses, and we have no doubt she would make a phenomenal addition to any sporthorse breeding program looking to influence their foals with well-mannered, sound, AA-friendly, high-quality Thoroughbred blood. Not to mention, her color is absolutely stunning.

Her pedigree is STAR-STUDDED, granddaughter to the revered stallions D’Wildcat and Bold Truth, with Storm Cat and Seattle Slew/Bold Reasoning only a few generations back.
A successful sport career certainly seems to be written in the stars for our sweet girl.

She has excellent, solid feet, cool, tight legs and joints, no abnormalities along the topline, a broad, open chest, clear lungs, clear eyes, and has recently jogged off sound for flexion of upper and lower limbs. She has shown no signs of lameness or loss of function.

Cherry would be suitable for:
-Hunters/Equitation
-Dressage
-Foxhunting/Hunter Pace
-Trail Riding
-Leasing/Lesson Program
-Sporthorse Breeding Program
