We
know that only superior
mares
produce superior foals. That is why we have very carefully hand selected
a few top quality mares. They were selected based on a combination of:
conformation, disposition, gait, bloodlines, and then color. There mares
represent some of the best bloodlines in the walking horse breed as
well as true versatility. When we select a stallion to cross with our
mares, we are careful to cross two horses that will improve upon each
other to create a better foal. All of our foals are imprinted at birth
and handled daily. We wean our foals between 4 - 6 months depending
on the condition of the mare and foal. We typically wean stud colts
a little earlier if they show signs of stallion-like behavior. When
we register our foals, we stamp the names of the foals that are a result
of our carefully managed breeding program with "WF" to show
our pride in these exceptional youngsters (if it will fit with our chosen
name length.) If you purchase a foal from us before we register them,
you may choose whether or not to use "WF" in your foal's name.
Be sure to check out our
PRESCHOOL ADVENTURES page to see
the training that our youngsters go through.

High Flyin
Special Effx x
The Tennessee
Stud WF
5/14/2024 - Buckskin -
Colt
$3800 |
This sweet, friendly buckskin colt is the
first foal out of
High Flyin Special Effex
aka "Roo."
She was bred by David and Beth Lamb. When she was a baby she had such
long legs that she looked like a little kangaroo when she was lying
down, hence the nickname "Roo." Roo's dam was David and Beth's
good plantation pleasure show mare,
Special Effects Direct, a
daughter of Ebony's Director by
Ebony
Masterpiece. Her dam was by a son of
Pride of
Midnight H.F.
Special Effects Direct only
produced two fillies before she passed in 2018, one of which is the
very talented show mare, Special Effects Reveal ("Iris").
I've ALWAYS wanted to own an
Allen All Around
baby. Ever since I first saw him walking and shaking his way around
the arena at the Virginia Horse Center, he's been a favorite of
mine. He has the most dramatic and true transition from a flatwalk
to a running walk out there. I can almost guarantee that every one
of my favorite moving horses at any NC show is a direct AAA baby.

Snip's High Hope WF x
The Tennessee
Stud WF
5/5/2024 - Bay - Filly
$3500 |
This bright, friendly bay filly is the first foal out of
"Joy" (Snip's High Hope), one of the farm favorites. She has
a 50% chance of being homozygous for black and a 100% chance
of being an absolutely phenominal riding horse with a
stellar disposition. She is her dam's first foal and will
likely be a smaller horse, around 14.3-15h. She will have a
naturally smooth, square gait and an easy canter. She has a
blend of western and foundation bloodlines that are hard to
find in modern young horses. Snip's High Hope is the product of two outstanding horses. Her
sire, Remembrance's Merry Snip, is one of the last closest
living links to both
Midnight Sun and
Merry Boy, with other great
horses (Wilson's Allen,
Roan Allen, the great mare
Merry
Legs,
Go Boy's Nite Storm,
Ebony Masterpiece,
Society Man and an incridibly
strong dam line through the Ray Corum breeding program,
including
Midnight Peggie P,
Stormy's Ebony Doll and
Ebony'
Co-Ed.) Her dam,
Lined's
High Hope, is a phenominal moving mare with a
sweet disposition. "Hope" is a direct daughter of
Lined with Cash, who was out of the great mare,
Gen's Silver Lining (Pride's
Generator x
Sun's
Eldorado daughter.)
Lined with Cash was directly by
Pride's Gold Coin and out of the top producing
mare
Delight's Joanna (by
Sun's
Delight D.)
Pride's Gold Coin was by
Pride of Midnight H.F., a direct son of
Midnight Sun out of the stylish and talented
Pride of Stanley. Hope's dam,
Sweepstake's High Hopes was directly by
Sweepstakes.

Dumas' Lady Bug
x
Respect This
5/5/2024 - Black - Colt |
This black colt is absolutely
massive. Though that's no surprise given that his sire is the
17h giant,
Respect This and his dam,
Dumas Lady Bug,
stands a towering
16.2h herself. Lady Bug would be an imposing presence, except she's so very
low key. When she's napping in the field, she doesn't offer to
get up when I come out unless I ask her to. She doesn't mind my
working with her babies. She loves when I rub her eyes and hold
her sizeable head in my arms. She's not a dominant mare, despite
the fact that with her size and substance she could easily
overpower others. She is a daughter of I'm Dumas Walker, by
The Pusher
CG (by
Drug Dealer by
Sun's
Gunsmoke by
Midnight
Sun.) Dumas Walker's dam was a daughter of
Mark of
Carbon. Lady Bug's dam was a granddaughter of
Ebony
Masterpiece.

Can't Touch Her Blues x
Darrah's Handsome Traveler
5/10/2023 - Buckskin - Colt
$4,500 DEPOSIT RECEIVED CONGRATULATION
BROOKE WEST |
This is one long, tall drink of water! A perfect butterscotch
buckskin colt with no white markings. Stocky, well muscled, tall...good looking in
every way! Pretty is as pretty does, but he's bred to be as
pretty on the inside as he is on the out. His parents are two of
the sweetest, most laid back horses you'll ever meet. Absolute
love bugs. They're also great movers and this guy should excel
as a trail, pleasure or field trial mount. He has a 50% chance
of being homozygous for black.

Lined's High Hope
5/31/2022 - Buckskin - Colt
$4,500 |
Hope ALWAYS throws a wonderful foal. This athletic,
perfectly balanced, awesome moving buckskin colt is
something else! He has outstanding presence. He will have a
silky smooth four beat gait that won't break, making him an
ideal trail or field trail prospect. He's also smart,
confident and personable. He has a countershade stripe that
looks like a dorsal stripe (it's not though) and both white
hind coronet and a star. He could be homozygous for black.
He should mature at a solid, stocky 15.1h.

Sassenach WF
The
Tennessee Stud WF
x
Pushover Some Cash
7/21/2021 - Chestnut - Filly $6,500
|
Claire was named for the main
character of Diana Gabaldon's series, Outlander: the fiery
herione, affectionately called "Sassenach" (Gaelic for
"Outlander.") Like her namesake, Claire is brilliant,
opinionated, talented and a force of nature. This gorgeous
red filly can flat out MOVE. She would be an excellent
flatshod show prospect, a tremendous trail horse or a flashy
field trial mount! Her dam,
Pushover
Some Cash, is a
15.2h direct daughter of
Lined with
Cash, who was out of the great mare,
Gen's
Silver Lining (Pride's
Generator x
Sun's
Eldorado daughter.)
Gen's
Silver Lining was a 10-time World Champion and
World Grand Champion. In her prime she was considered one of
the best mares to ever grace the show ring. She sat down on
her back end, waved those front legs and shook that head
every step of the way.
Lined with
Cash was directly by
Pride's
Gold Coin who was out of the top producing mare
Delight's
Joanna (by
Sun's
Delight D.)
Pride's
Gold Coin was by
Pride of
Midnight H.F., a direct son of
Midnight Sun
out of the stylish and talented
Pride of
Stanley. Her dam is a daughter of 1990 WGC
The Pushover,
who was out of 1981 WGC
The Pusher
CG and a direct
Pride of
Midnight H.F. mare. Her dam's dam was a direct
Mark of
