“My mares
are the fountainhead, cornerstone,
THE most important ingredient of my breeding program.
I truly feel that
the mare is 75%
of a breeding
and they never
get the credit.”

In
choosing my mares and breeding them, I have sought the
lines of the Old California Morgans with some Old
Brunk and US Government lines. It all started with Primavera
Ramona who gave me two foals, LBF Gay Enchantress and
LBF Gay Isabella, who
themselves have gone on to be good producers for me.
Adding Treasure Brightsun only solidified
what I already had and she and Rocking M Rosa Lita
have brought
some color to my breeding program. I have chosen
my colorful mares not just for their color but for
their
lovely dispositions, good conformation
and their bloodlines.Color is icing on the cake and
like many breeders I have bred and own many chestnuts
that I would not trade
for the world.
Most of my mares have had careers as using horses in
Dressage, Carriage, Trail and family mounts. It has
only been after many years of being used in a variety
of endeavors and that they have the temperment for
work, the substance and strength to remain sound working,
that they have then gone on to be brood mares. They
have all proven to be great mothers, kind to their
foals and easy breeders.
I
have to say personally that I would prefer to ride
a mare any day.They have the grit and the stamina
that is needed for what I do.
