Miss Annie Patches   SSHBEA •9901725•

Sire: Deckard's Bocephus Dam: Unknown Foaled: March 7, 1995 Color: Black & White Tobiano Hands: 14 Foals: Miss Oreo Annie ('99), Miss Annie Saamis ('01), Annie's Rowdy Alen ('04), Gracie Annie Alen ('07)

“Patches the Wonder Horse”, as Bob affectionately calls her, is his favorite horse to ride!  Bob named her “Miss Annie” in honor and as a tribute to his Grandmother, a tiny woman with lots of spunk, whom he dearly loved.      Patches gaits like a dream, is trustworthy and as Bob describes her; has the agility of a motor-cross bike!  Patches is an excellent broodmare & mother.  She has every new foal clean as a whistle & on its feet nursing within less than an hour of birth!  A classic Tony W. mare, Patches usually puts loads of color on all her foals.  Don’t let her size fool you…so far, every foal she’s ever had has grown to exceed 15 hands tall!   Additional Pictures:

 

Stormy's Misplaced Copy (Blue)   TWHBEA •918447•

Sire: Pride's Stormy Night (WC & sire of multiple WGC's) Dam: Copy's Merry Sun (By WGC GLL's Carbon Copy) Foaled: May 12, 1991 Color: Black with star & white on upper & lower lips DNA Typed: Yes Hands: 15

As a former show horse in amateur classes, this talented mare always brought home the blue ribbons, so everybody just started calling her “Blue”.  Blue has a very quiet temperament and she rides so smooth that you don’t even move in the saddle!  Blue is a direct daughter of (WC) Pride’s Stormy Night and out of a former show mare & direct daughter of (WGC) GLL’s Carbon Copy.  Her pedigree is full of foundation breeding and she has produced outstanding foals.  Her 2004 foal by Lined With Cash is showing very well.  We are anxious to meet Blue & Apache's 2008 foal.

Miss Oreo Annie   SSHBEA •9901726•

Sire: Midnight's Spotted Alen (1/2 brother to Spotted Alen Again) Dam: Miss Annie Patches Foaled: May 18, 1999 Color: Black & White Tobiano Hands: 15.1 Full Sister to Miss Annie Saamis, Foals: Oreo's Raven Sun ('05) & Oreo Sparkles Again ('07)

Oreo is a very sweet and affectionate horse.  She is so easy to love!  Oreo has a very smooth running-walk & just drop the reins on her neck and she transitions to an easy rocking chair canter without missing a beat!  You’ll want to look down to see if her feet ever touch the ground!  We imprinted Oreo at birth and when her first foal (Raven 2005) came, she had absolutely no issue with us imprinting him.  She made it so easy for us to imprint him that he quickly earned the status as the gentlest baby we’ve bred, so far!  We’ve always strongly believed in imprinting, but the second generation of imprinted foals has proved to be just amazing!

Echo's Midnight Threat   TWHBEA •20212333•

Sire: Threat's Ebony Echo (By WGC Triple Threat) Dam: Ebony's Dusty Lass (By WGC Ebony Masterpiece) Foaled: October 14, 2002 Color: Black with star DNA Typed: Yes Hands: 15.2 Foals: Alen's Triple Masterpiece ('09)

Talk about Blue Blood!  This young mare’s sire is a direct son of (WGC) TRIPLE THREAT and her dam is a direct daughter of (WGC) EBONY MASTERPIECE!  How fortunate we feel to own this exceptionally well-bred mare and she be so young, to boot!  Midnight is a very personable & loving mare that doesn’t have a mean bone in her body.  However, she was bred for stamina and boy-howdy is she ever a Go-Horse!  Midnight has a BIG head nod as she performs a perfect running-walk gait!  I am going to have a ball riding this fun mare for the next year, while completing her training.  Robin, our trainer expects her running-walk cruising speed to easily exceed 25 mph, when she is finished.   When Midnight reaches age five, we will breed her for the first time.  We never breed our mares before they are five years old.  Midnight has no “Pride of Midnight” in her pedigree and will cross well with any bloodline.  Of course, Ebony crosses well with anything, anyway.  We anticipate Midnight will produce awesome babies who’s destiny will be a World Grand Championship!

Miss Annie Saamis   SSHBEA •10101228•

Sire: Midnight's Spotted Alen (1/2 brother to Spotted Alen Again) Dam: Miss Annie Patches Foaled: May 23, 2001 Color: Black & White Tobiano & (Medicine Hat) Hands: 15.3 Full Sister to Miss Oreo Annie Foals: Sweet Saamis Again ('07)

Saamis, is the Blackfoot Indian name meaning “Head Dress of the Medicine Man”.  Legend has it that if a warrior rode a horse with these unique markings into battle, he could not be killed.  You’ll notice her medicine hat and the shield of armor she has on her chest.  Saamis has an awesome disposition!  She is eager to please and has a very nice gait. She can side-pass & pivot on her hind quarters making the best quarter horse look twice!  Saamis is an incredibly settled horse, well beyond her years.  At age 4 and after only 45 days of training, I was so confident in her ability that I hauled Saamis (without a buddy horse) to Kentucky – Land Between the Lakes & hooked up with some serious riders on experienced well-conditioned horses.  Saamis was not to be outdone!  I could feel the competitive spirit within her as she kept pace with the other gaited horses!  She rode for 2 full days as if she were a 12 year old seasoned gaited mountain horse!  I had NO problems, at all!  I am totally the proud Mama of this versatile young mare!  Saamis is hands down, the ultimate trail horse!  Additional Pictures:
