It all started in 1984 with Slipper a super little liver chestnut colt that was bred by my sister Billie and myself. Slipper was by Diablo Tewsun out of a non QH mare but had most of the Quarter Horse characteristics. From that day on I was smitten with the QH bug.
In 1986 I met Roger and he too fell in love with the breed. Since then we have been fortunate enough to own and breed a small but select band of Quarter Horses.
These are some of the pure and part-bred QH's that we have been lucky enough to have in our lives:
Slipper (Diablo Tewsun x Golden Oriole part T/B). Home bred.
Molly the Roo at a Huntingdon Quarter Horse Race day. She was ridden by Sheila Whelan and come in 2nd by a head. Roo was bred by The Lord Baden -Powell and was by Tumbleweed Tophand x Molly Mayflower.
She bred 5 gorgeous foals for us before going to live wih Linda McCaig in Scotland.
Roo was our foundation mare, an excellent all rounder. She woud race one week then go on a sponsored ride the next. Another day she would stand quietly in a training clinic for 2-3 hours without complaint.
Slipper's Jaguar (Sierra Harmony x Molly The Roo) aka Jake. Sheila Whelan is the handler. Home bred.
Cruisins Topsicana (Arabis Cruisin Pine x Johnstur Topsicana) aka Fennel. She was bred by Sheila Whelan
Fennel is seen here in training with Bruce Lawrence.
