Pleasure's Pot o' Gold

Vader:

Stamboom:

February 24, 2000 -
A small group of horses is waiting for transport to Europe somewhere in the United States of America. Among these horses there is a unusual light colored mare that is obviously heavily in foal. She is supposed to give birth in Europe but that seems to be an impossible job for her. Later that day she delivers a healthy golden studcolt. The owner decides to postpone transport and exports the mare with foal by her side several months later.

The sire of the colt is The Pride Piper, a sorrel stallion with old bloodlines who won the Reserve Lite Shod Champion title at the National Celebration at the age of 7. Besides this accomplishment, Piper established a name for himself in Model, Lite shod and Plantation divisions. In the following years, Piper proved to be an exceptional breedingstallion siring natural gaited, beautiful colts with outstanding athletic ability. His colts tend to be large with good bone, yet elegant refinement, nice and willing dispositions, and petite, beautiful heads.

What looked like a palomino colt at first, appears to be a Golden Champagne color. The blue eyes at birth prove Potter inherited the rare champagne gen of his dam Hyland Champagne. The blue color slowly changes to green and becomes amber when the horse matures. Potter was offered for sale at the age of 5 and that is when we met for the first time. Despite his lack of experience and untrained body, his movement is loose and strong without a tendency to be pacy. He could compete with his sire looking at his conformation and besides this his disposition is oustanding and that what makes me fall for him...  A laid back stallion with a positive and happy expression. 

Besides being a registered and bloodtyped Tennessee Walking Horse, Potter is also registered with both Champagne registrees; CHBOA and ICHRegistry and is foundation stallion with the Pleasure Saddle Horse Registry.

As of 2006 Potter is officially at stud. Potter has had a vetcheck including x-rays of his legs and feet. Be early and reserve now for a '08 breeding. Call or email for more info. Potter his first offspring is born in August '06 meanwhile his offspring is spread over Europe in The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and France! Potter throws 50% champagne offspring.

Potter is available for Tennessee Walking Horse mares and other gaited breeds. The studfee for 2008 is € 750,-. Contact us by email for the conditions and a breedcontract. The number of breedings per season is limited.
