We
would like to congratulate Brooke Brownlow of San Antonio, Texas, on the
purchase of this wonderful horse. Look for Whiskey to take Brooke from the
Level 4 jumpers all the way to the Grand Prixs someday! We plan to
be at the Pin Oak show this year to cheer them on.
The
Irish Rover and out of Illusive Dancer. He has been winning in the
"A" show jumpers since he was 4 years old. Competing in 2004 in Level
7 & 8 jumpers and is ready to move up to Grand Prix. He is very sound
and uncomplicated to ride. Very honest and dependable. Suitable for an
amateur or junior and perfect for a pro wanting a top Grand Prix prospect.
And, he can also compete wonderfully in the working hunters! What a
combination! This horse is truly a gem. Only being sold to
help get my breeding name out there and he deserves to be in the BIG leagues,
where I can't afford to send him. 
Dreamstreet
- 2000 Hanoverian mare. 
Dream is an incredible mare showing real talent for dressage and surprising talent
as a hunter. Very sweet
and completely suitable for an amateur or junior, Dreamstreet is 16.3 hands tall
and is a dark blackish seal brown. Very classic lines and elegant movement
with a perfect form over fences and lovely big lofty movement for dressage, she is for the discriminating rider who
appreciates quality. Sired by 
Farrah
- 2002 gray Oldenburg mare 
by
Frohwind out of a TB mare. Frohwind is a 5-star stallion and is one of the
country's top producers of competition horses. This mare is absolutely stunning
and a joy to ride. She is light, forward, willing and loves people.
Never lays on your hand and responds instantly to your leg, here is a warmblood
that is not difficult to put together for dressage. She has had two years of
professional dressage training and is showing First Level - ready to start
Second Level.. For a lark (and after only two weeks of training over fences!)
she was taken to an "A" hunter show where she was champion in two divisions!!!
No one could believe she had just started jumping. She really seems to enjoy
it and could make a really fancy hunter. If you are looking for something really special to show, you just MUST
see this girl. Currently priced at $18,000

indeed. German inspector stated at his inspection that "This colt is

watch her progress!

Katerina Hedlova of Austin on her purchase of this darling gelding. Look for
them in the jumper ring in a couple more years.
Knabstrupper
gelding by Apollon out of Miracle in the Mist. This boy is large boned and
moves very well. He is easy and fun to be around. Ready to start

But he forgot his spots! Now is your chance to have a really nice
registered warmblood gelding for a truly remarkably low price for his
quality. 
Woo-hoo!
We are so happy to announce the sale of this special boy to Diane Jones, a

Congratulations
to Mary Claeys of Cleburne, Texas, on the purchase of Wisdom. Mary is an

Hanoverian
stallion, 
We
are pleased to announce the sale of this wonderful young stallion to Susan
Herbert-Truskowsky of Moatsville, West Virginia. He will stand at stud at
her T-Square Appaloosas farm. Contact Susan at 
cap colt by the famous Appaloosa Sport
Horse stallion, Wapspotted. We bought his dam in foal to add to our
Knabstrupper breeding program and were hoping for a filly colored JUST like
this. He is already 16.1 hands at 3 years old and his snow cap coloring means
that he should always produce the appy coloring, even when bred to solid colored
mares. Wapspotted offspring of this quality are just NEVER offered for sale, so jump on
this opportunity to own a stallion quality Appaloosa sport horse colt to breed
and/or show. He has begun his saddle training and is doing well. He
has also been trained to collect on a dummy mare and his first foal crop is due
in spring of 2007. All three mares got pregnant on only one
breeding! 
We
are just thrilled to announce the sale of this wonderful boy to Stacy Munoz of
Houston, Texas, one of our students and friends, who will keep him here with
us! Look for them in a couple of months in the dressage and Arabian shows!
Power is a 2000 black (in the photos he's bleached by the Texas sun, but we
PROMISE and guarantee that he is black) purebred Arabian sport horse by 
We'd
like to congratulation Dr. Ellen Zeimer of Rougemont Sporthorses in Bahama,
North Carolina on the purchase of this lovely mare.
is a 16 hand, 1991 true black Oldenburg mare approved for breeding by the Oldenburg Verband and the International Sporthorse Registry/Oldenburg North America. Her sire,
Wallenstein, is a grand prix show jumper. Other impressive bloodlines are those of Winchester, Canadian International team captain, Ian Miller’s show jumper in international competition, Pik Konig and Pik As, important German sires of both dressage horses and jumpers. She has produced
three gorgeous black foals (see Inkka above and Pilar below). She has good bone and very good conformation. A hock injury ended her performance career as a junior’s eventing horse, but she is sound for light riding and loves the trails.
She is open, but could be sold with a breeding back to the Oldenburg stallion,
Manhattan.
We
are very happy to announce that Dolly has been purchased by a sport pony breeder
in Canada. She know she will love the cooler weather in Canada!
the internet after keeping her fans in suspense for over 3 weeks as we waited for her birth. An immediate favorite, this black filly by Fyre One
(*Aladdinn x Fyre Love x *Bask) has the most wonderful face, loving personality and breathtaking movement. Her dam, Darq Velvet
(Darq Ali x Bint Saimasa x El Farazdac), has already produced
two stallion candidate sons by Fyre One - one that is winning already on the line at halter in both open and amateur to handle classes.
She is sweepstakes and futurities nominated. This filly was the survivor of
twins and is quite small. She is just a hair over 13.1 hands and would be the
perfect mount for a child. 
We
would like to congratulation Beth Jones of Alabama on the purchase of this
awesome filly.
Noir,
and out of our pinto wb mare, Drifter. She is (to our knowledge) the ONLY
pinto warmblood foal Cor Noir ever had. She is a gorgeous 2004 bay and
white pinto filly that will be registered with the Oldenburg Verband. She
is very sweet, correct in her conformation and with stunning movement. Her
canter is so balanced already! She was imprinted at birth and leads, ties,
loads and stands for the farrier. She should mature to about 16.2 hands
and should be suitable for dressage, jumping or eventing. You will
definitely be noticed in the ring on this girl! 
Congratulations
to Vicki Chritton-Myers of West Plains, Missouri, on the purchase of this
mare. Look for them in the Arabian show ring!
and out of MB Satira (Imperial Saturn x Samira x
Dalul). What a glorious mixture of pure Polish and straight Egyptian! This filly carries the best of the bloodlines from both. With close up *Aladdinn, *Bask, Imperial
Staturn, *Morafic and Ansata Ibn Halima, what more could you ask for a top show prospect or brood mare? She has an exotic head and long, hooky neck and is sweepstakes and futurities nominated .
Update: Siren is a lovely, sweet filly that learns quickly and will
definitely win for you in western pleasure and/or hunter under saddle. She was
started under saddle by a 17 year old girl who, after only 90 days riding, took
her to a big futurity show where she was high point horse both days of the show,
and was UNDEFEATED in hunter under saddle. In those two shows, she showed in
western pleasure, hunter under saddle, halter, showmanship at halter and trail
class. She was just perfect! What a show horse this will be! Here are two video
clips from the show. 
We
are delighted
to announce the sale of this awesome young horse to Julie Wint of
Gardner, Kansas. He will be a hunter prospect for the "A" shows.
We know he will do us proud.
2002
bay (turning gray) colt by the Oldenburg stallion, Mannhattan out of Illusive Dancer, one of our best producing broodmares. His mother was a top hunter
mare and his sire has produced numerous winning hunters. He is registered with ISR/Oldenburg NA and has
just perfect hunter movement. I have been told that he is EXACTLY what the
judges are looking for in today's "A" show hunter ring. He is puppy dog gentle and easy to handle. He was imprinted at birth and leads, ties, bathes, loads and stands quietly for the
farrier.
