"Cappie" was bred and raised by Elsie Darrah of Last Chance Farm. Her dam was the cornerstone of Elsie's program, Fireball's Mountain Maid. Elsie's elite group of mares represented many years of breeding and selection to get the type of mares that would produce exceptional foals that display the characteristics of original walking horse breed standards. These mares produced foals with a natural head nodding running walk. They were versatile enough to meet the challenges for the many riding disciplines in show, pleasure, working and sporting events. I first met Cappie at Rise and Shine Walkers in Kokomo, Indiana. I was struck then by the sheer size and bone of the big, sooty buckskin mare. She has the laid back disposition of the Royal Ivory/Maggie crosses. Her 2015 perlino filly, Sam's Shiny Pearl, was imported to Switzerland by Andrea Schneider. She foaled a beautiful buckskin filly by Golden Gambler in 2019: Gambler's Mountain Maid WF (filly is sold). She foaled a palomino colt by The Tennessee Stud WF on 4/14/2021.
