APHA Mares/Fillies

Our breeding program began in 1991 with just a couple AQHA and APHA mares.  A few years later, with the purchase of the APHA stallion "A Breeze of Class" (sired by the world renown "Ris Key Business both now deceased) we started shifting towards APHA cow horses.  In the early 2000's, our dream of having a multiple world champion came true with the purchase of Ris Key Business himself!  It was a once in a lifetime opportunity that we will cherish forever.

​

In 2009, we bred most of our tobiano daughters/granddaughters of Ris Key to This Cat Flys, out NCHA $$ earning son of Highbrow Cat (o/o dtr of Delta Flyer). (sold to Canada)

​

In 2011 and 2012 we bred most of the daughters/granddaughter of Ris Key to COLORED ME BLUE: a roan tobiano SON of the multimillion dollar cutting sire: Color Me Smart. "BLUE"is out of a FULL SISTER to the AQHA and NCHA legend: Peptoboonsmal (by Peppy San Badger). Roan tobianos are 100% color producers - all foals are roan and/or tobiano. (now deceased)

​

In 2014 we bred the majority of our mares to Pepsis Color Master. Pepsi's sire an accomplished rope horse (APHA roping point) by one of the all time cow horse legends - RR Riskymastrpiece (o/o a dtr of Doc Quixote). Pepsi's dam is a dtr of another APHA legend - Pepsi Poco. 
Pepsi is a 15.1 hand, dble hz (black and tobiano) dunskin who is heterozygous agouti. (he has an equal chance of producing blacks and grullos and/or buckskins and duns)

In 2015 we bred a half dozen mares to Diaman H Straits Boon. He's a 'home grown' blue roan tobiano son of Colored Me Blue (see above) out of a daughter of Strait From Texas. "Boon" is currently in training with Jack Wright of Penrose, Colorado. You can expect to see his name many times in 2017 if you follow APHA show results. He is VERY talented with TONS of potential. Add that to the fact he's with a world reknown trainer...... **Well, things didn't turn out as expected. Jack Wright broke his arm right before the 2017 APHA World Show, so unable to compete....and Boon is back home with us. (Sold to Texas)

2016 we added the black tobiano, double homozygous son of Ris Key Business - NO RISK - to our stallion line up.

2017 we boarded the World Champion stallion, QTsGold MasterCard on his trip between Secret Hills in California and Meadowbrook Stables in Nova Scotia. Boarding turned into leasing for the breeding season. (now deceased)

2018 we bred a couple mares to Diaman H Straits Boon (blue roan tobiano), a few mares to No Risk, and the majority to Pepsis Color Master. There will be 20 - 25 foals for sale in 2019....including a foal from Ris Key Business (frozen semen)(That Dam and in utero foal were sold to Brazil).

2019 we bred all of our mares to either Pepsis Color Master or No Risk.

2020 most of our mares are again bred to either Pepsis Color Master or No Risk. We did breed one mare (Diaman H Straits Risk) to a sorrel tobiano/splash son of Gunnit. (sold to Mexico) 

​
In 2021 and 2022 we bred many of our daughters and granddaughters of Ris Key Business to The Storm Truper. "Truper" is a 15.3 hand double homozygous black tobiano SON of A Tru Rolex. Truper is not only the son of the leading open performance point earning stallion in APHA history, Truper is a performer himself. He has heading, heeling and steer stopping points. Truper is being leased from the Blue Diamond Ranch in Byron, Texas. www.bluediamondranch.com 
We bred several mares to Pepsis Color Master and few mares were bred to No Risk.
This breeding season is running VERY long/late, with an INCREDIBLE number of outside mares bred to Pepsi and No Risk.

In 2023, we will have Pepsi and No Risk....but will add Tru Gay Bar Passion (Ringo) to our stallion line up. "Ringo" will fit right in with our current stallion, since he is a double homozygous grullo tobiano SON of the multiple world champion - Gay Bar Drummer out of a daughter of the multiple world champion A Tru Rolex. (Then add Shots Flying Spark and Passion Buck to the last line of his papers!) 

Photos and more info (including pedigrees) on these stallions can be found on the 'APHA stallions' page.

Almost all of our mares have been broke to ride as 3 year olds (if only for 30 - 45 days) before going into the broodmare band. Extended pedigrees are available. If you see something you like, or want information on a past, present or future foal, just let me know. Any offspring we still have will be listed below that mare's bio. You can then access their info and photos on other pages - according to year of birth.

Depending on time of year, we do sell 3-in-1 and 2-in-1 combinations. Most of our prices are firm....however, if you are looking for more than one broodmare/riding horse we MIGHT BE willing to discuss 'package deals'.

**PLEASE NOTE THAT ONCE WE GET TO JANUARY OF THE YEAR A MARE IS DUE, WE USUALLY DON'T INCLUDE THE INUTERO FOAL IN THE PRICE LISTED FOR THE MARE**

If you see something you like, but don't have the cash up front - payment plans are an option, and a 25% - 30% deposit (minimum of $1000) will hold a horse. ASK for details.

Mares are listed in order of age. 

We have tested our stallions for 7 genetic disorders. Negative for GBED, HYPP, HERDA, PSSM, MH, as well as IMM ...and they all tested negative for the frame overo gene (LWO) 
We do not accept any mares in for breeding that are positive for dominant disorders - HYPP, PSSM, and MH. 

HERDA and GBED carriers are perfectly acceptable as those are recessive genes and therefore will have ZERO affect on carriers and/or their foals.
