Little Peppy Zana was piloted to the 2007 ApHC Reserve National
Championship in Sr. Cutting by Jody Galyean, one of the NCHA’s all-time
leading riders, and one of the NCHA's most respected competitors, and
winner of the 1986 NCHA Futurity!

Bulls Breezin Spirit is a colored Appaloosa stallion, royally bred for performance.  
Known as "Herbie" on the farm, he is a stylish, talented mover, possessing the
willing attitude, the easily trainable mind of a winner-and the proven pedigree of a
performance champion.  

Herbie's pedigree is packed, top and bottom, with proven Champions and
producers of Champions, in Reining and other performance events. The highly
sought after & renowned performance genetics of AQHA, NRHA, NCHA, and ApHC
Champions can be found paternally and maternally in this young stallion's
impressive pedigree.  

Bull's Breezin Spirit is sired by the NRHA Champion, Spirit of Pine, (AQHA) a son of
the renowned reining sire, Great Pine who's name can be found in the pedigrees of
many past NRHA greats, and those still competing today.  Herbie's dam, Baby's
Whim, (ApHC) is sired by Sure Slide (AQHA) formerly well known in the Northeast as
a sire of NRHA money earners.  Herbie's first maternal dam is a Medallion Winner in
Reining, and was sired by Sweetwater's Multiple World & National Champion
performance sire, and Superior Halter Stallion, Breezin' Bull, ApHC.  

Although bred for the reining pen, Herbie missed his SB & Futurity years due to a
freak injury sustained as a yearling, leaving only skin for a tail with nothing left to
tie a tail to. After 4 years of care, surprisingly most of his tail has grown back!  
Although this did not affect his soundness, it was not possible to cosmetically
correct his tail in a manner that would have allowed him to be shown at his best,
and with dignity.

Closed book for 2009.

Zips Impulsion, ApHC, or Betty as we call her, carries some of the most sought
after genetics in the pleasure horse industry, including such AQHA pleasure greats
as Zippo Pine Bar, Zippo Pat Bars (top and bottom) Impulsions, The Investor,
Hot Rodders Jet Set, and Appaloosas who have also left their mark on the
Industry, such as Skip's Reward, and Mighty Bright. This superbly bred mare is
also a full sister to Impulsive Zipper, the 3 time World Champion Western Pleasure
Horse and a renowned Pleasure Sire, owned by Roberta and Dave Best.
Impulsive Zipper, 3 time Appaloosa World Champion Western Pleasure
Horse and renowned Pleasure Champion Sire, owned by Roberta & Dave
Best, was the Featured Stallion of the December, 2008 issue of the
Appaloosa Journal, suitably titled "Pure Pleasure."

phenomenal, NSBA record breaking pleasure horse and Appaloosa Sire- Chocolatey! His site
can be accessed by clicking www.money4color.com
This colorful colt, sired by DZ Weedo, is shown stretching his legs at
about 6 hours of age.
In March 2008 filly, Zips Impulsion, (ApHC), one of the Appaloosa industry's premiere
pleasure producing mares thrilled us with the arrival of a stunning filly sired by the
well balanced, beautifully moving, black homozygous AQHA Champion and producer of
Champions, One Hot Invitation (AQHA), owned by Dennis and Terry Robinson, of
Robinson's Horse Quarters.
The proven genetics of Rosie's pedigree are clearly evident in this big, elegant filly.
Her ample size, naturally correct, well balanced frame, and soft, flat kneed movement,
couple with a sweet disposition, and trainable mindset to present a first quality
pleasure prospect. "Rosie" is a lovely long and low mover, displaying what it takes
to become a natural star in the pleasure arena.  Now a 2 yr old pleasure prospect,
with her style and frame this well bred 2 yr old may also be suited for Regional Hunter
In Hand classes and/or Open, Youth & NP Halter Mares.  She has the potential to
begin the road to becoming a Non-Pro, Youth or Open horse capable of winning in
hand-and under saddle.
Rosie's "look at me" charisma and pleasant demeanor are traits shared by many
show horse greats who enjoy their jobs.

Mare Power

Our Appaloosa and AQHA broodmares possess the proven genetics and willing attitudes of the Champions and Producers of
Champions of the various disciplines each was specifically bred for-Halter,  the Pleasures, Western performance, Cutting, Cowhorse
and Reining.

     Our mares have much to pass along to their offspring, including...
    intelligence coupled with athletic ability...
      soundness...
            easily trainable dispositions...
                  charisma & presence...
                       elegance...
                            ample size...
                                 overall balance of frame...
                                      long, low naturally correct movement...
                                          heart...
                                                and a willingness to please.

We continue striving to meet our long term goals of breeding Modern Appaloosa Champions-and naturally Versatile Appaloosa All
'Rounders-suitable for Youth, highly competitive in Non-Pro and Open-and with the conformation and temperament to stay
competitive for the long haul.

    In light of the recent economical changes which are currently affecting so many, although the Appaloosa All 'rounder may
    be difficult to breed for, and cause some specialists to scratch their heads...we believe the talented All 'Rounder is well
    worth the effort taken to create. In our opinion, good minded, natural equine athletes are capable of being trained and
    cultivated to meet the demands of the real All 'rounder with class, style and consistency.

                                      Specializing in Versatility is a true art-for both horse & rider.

  With the right attributes showing can be enjoyable for both horse and rider...
                                                                                                                                                   ...Naturally-as it should be.
