Senior Mare Pet the Pill, IB Paranoide , a bright roaned sabino chestnut.

Jockey Club registered Thoroughbred, from the family of Transworld - sire of the immortal American steeplechaser Lonesome Glory. Pet was sired by *Paranoide (Arg), who was at the time of his importation the fastest horse in the world on dirt and turf at several distances. All the foals of this grand mare have her incredible ability, intelligence and personality.

NEWS FLASH! Pet's fifth foal, and our first Irish Draught Sporthorse baby of 2007, has arrived!

She's a gorgeous flashy chestnut sabino filly, by Braveheart RID foaled April 12, with a beautiful white blaze and high hind socks, and she's already showing the spectacular athleticism and style of her dam, and the common sense and tremendously sweet and loving disposition of her sire.

Her name is American Lace

Pet is in foal to Flag of Diamonds RID for 2008 - this one will be a jumping MACHINE, with the gaits to do dressage too - can you say EVENTER?.


Another of our wonderful broodmares, "Pleasy" is royally bred, from lines producing both great racehorses and superb hurdlers and sporthorses. She has a sweet and quiet disposition, great legs and feet, 9 inches of flat clean bone, ground-covering gaits and lots of size. At 16:2 HH, this very balanced and proportionate mare doesn't look as big as she is until you get up close to her! She did race at Santa Anita, was retired after a muscle injury to her rump, and bred for her first foal at three. We are very impressed with her second foal, our beautiful 2005 filly Sweet Goldielocks, by the Conquistador Cielo son Stolen Gold.

Pleasy's third foal, by Snowford O'Donnell RID, is a gorgeous black liver chestnut Irish Draught Sporthorse colt foaled April 20 of 2006. We have named him Dreams Come True - and in this case, they truly have.

Always Pleasing's pedigree. Her sire's page, and interesting information on her closely related cousin, Hawk Wing, who is standing at Coolmore Stud in Slievenamon, Ireland.

Pleasy has foaled a huge gorgeous colt for 2007 to the cover of Steeped in Luck RID. We are expecting great things from this beautiful and sweet chestnut boy! His name is Lucky Punch .

Pleasy was held open for 2008 - she will be bred to our young stallion Manu Forti's Touch Down RID for 2009.


 

Worldly Remarque, "Markie", is our youngest broodmare, and is getting lovelier by the day. This young mare is right at 16:2, with perfect feet and legs and the sweet, quiet, sensible disposition her sire Worldly was known for producing. Sadly, Worldly was lost to colic, but in this superb daughter from his last crop, his line lives on in excellence.

Markie's pedigree, which includes Seattle Slew, Buckpasser, War Admiral and other memorables, can be seen here. .
