From a rigorous selection process
spanning over 20 years, we have purchased and breed some of the most exquisite
well-bred mares from around the country. In addition, we have retained
some of “Blue Carousel’s” most exquisite Arabian-type daughters to
enhance our breeding program. At this time, we are proud to
introduce . . .
This gorgeous Palomino filly was foaled in April 2008.
Her sire is Blue Carousel, sire of multiple
AMHA World Champions. Her dam is a Multiple SUPREME HALTER HORSE in
both Open and Amateur at AMHA shows. Her grandsires include Lazy N Red
Boy, a direct offspring of the immortal ROWDY, and FWF Blues Golden Comet,
a direct offspring of the Impeccable FWF Blue Boy. This mare
has the pedigree, color, conformation and attitude to win in the showring.
This senior mare stands about 31-1/2 inches and is ready
to show this spring!!
This miniature 2010 filly is one of the best horses we've ever
produced. She stands a mere 27" tall and already has won an
AMHA SUPREME HALTER HORSE (June 2011 show)--she is REALLY that
special and gorgeous!! Her sire is our AMHA WORLD
CHAMPION, "MARQUIS," and
her dam is a 28" black and white pinto by our Bond-bred stallion.
Her dainty little dishy head, her swan-like long neck and otherwise
perfect conformation makes her a one-in-a-million mini!!
Crystal
Ridge All Jazzed Up
This grey and white filly is by our World
Champion-producing herdsire, Blue Carousel, and out of Crystal Ridge
Bewitching Melody, who was a gorgeous show mare. We expect this
filly to clean up in the show ring, as she is one of our best!
Excellent conformation (with a tiny, tiny head needed to win in the show
ring today), combined with great color and fancy movement gives this filly
all she needs to win!!!! "Zazzy" is a 2010 AMHA World Top
Ten horse, too--gorgeous and ultra-refined mare.
"Jazzy" won the prestigious 2009 NEMHS
Weanling Futurity in September 2009.
Watch for her in the Show Ring in 2010!!
Sheer Magic is a super Show Mare and is now a senior mare in 2010! She
has been a multiple AMHA Supreme Halter Horse in both amateur and open.
She stands about 32 inches, which is a great size to show in Halter and in
Driving. She has the much-desired long, swan-like neck, beautiful head
and perfect overall conformation. This great show mare will also make
an excellent broodmare some day when her showing days are done.
