Dashd Desperado
Sire CA Wreckless Rascal Dam Peggy Sue

Texas is our eagerly awaited first homebred full American Paint Horse and he finally made his appearance on 29th April. He's beautifully marked with just a few white hairs constituting a star, and it looks like he's going to go dark bay like his parents.

As with all of Peggy's foals he's been a 'people person' from the moment he arrived in the outside world, and will make a super family horse. We expect him to mature at around 15.2hh and with his friendly inquisitive nature he'll be happy to go wherever you want to take him.

Texas is for sale and will be weaned in September 2008. Please contact us for more details. He is registered with the APHA and can be gelded if required. You can see more photos here.

Dashd Mississippi (ee)
Sire CA Wreckless Rascal Dam HH Badlands Brandy (for sale)

Missy arrived at 1am on 8th June, another beautiful minimally marked filly - this time a chestnut! She's a purebred American Paint with versatile lines, and just loves to show off her athleticism flat out around the fields. She's an independent character, most often found playing with the older foals out of sight of Brandy.

This flashy filly is sure to gain plenty of admirers in whatever discipline you choose, English or Western - she knows exactly how pretty she is, with huge amounts of presence and she already has us wrapped around her little hooves.

Missy is for sale upon weaning in the new year. Please contact us for more information. She is registered with the APHA and will be passported with CHAPS. You can see more photos here.

Dashd Déjà vu
Sire CA Wreckless Rascal Dam Mary B

Houston arrived on 2nd April 2008 and we are thrilled with Josh's first foal. He's well marked, exceptionally athletic and has a bright, inquisitive outlook on life with his parents' amenable, friendly disposition. He's going to make at least 16hh - his legs are long and it didn't take long for him to learn how best to use them, this little man can really move! He is a serious showing or amateur performance prospect for the future.

Houston has been sold, and will be going to his new home in Germany upon weaning.
Congratulations Joanne!

Sire CA Wreckless Rascal Dam Dashdance Little Brooke

Aspen arrived at 2am on 22nd April, a beautiful minimally marked black filly. Just like her parents, she has an amazingly friendly and inquisitive character. She has real potential as a show horse with her striking colouring, floating paces and naturally muscular build.

She's a very special filly, granddaughter of my wonderful mare Tess, who will doubtless turn a hoof to anything.

Aspen has been sold to a showing home.

GI Mighty Lucky Jaz
Sire Doc N Mighty Mouse Dam Dewberry Gunsmoke

Chukka is a buckskin Quarterhorse filly born 24 April 2008, with a very pretty head and a muscular build, bred by Channing Quarterhorses. She has a number of influential names in her pedigree, including Poco Bueno, Doc Bar and Little Steel Dust who was AQHA Halter Champion, gained IBHA points in Hunt Seat, Dun Factor and sired ROM & point earners in reining, roping and team penning.

She's a bold and inquisitive foal and we look forward to seeing her grow on over the next few years. If she matures as well as we hope, she will join the broodmare herd in 2011.

Ashbank Primavera
Sire Stravinsky Dam Soulbury Ladeda

Chess is a beautifully feminine filly with a sweet nature and real presence, bred by Ashbank Equestrian. A whimsical purchase - I have always adored Stravinsky!

Stravinsky retired sound from racing and competed in dressage at PSG in Sweden and Intermediare II in Denmark. He is the sire of 4 licensed stallion sons. Ladeda's first foal was Champion Part Bred Hanoverian at age 2 and now competes in affiliated dressage after a successful County showing career. Her second foal is a sportshorse stallion, and her 2007 foal by Utah van Erpekom was bought by a showjumping home.

Dashd Cosmopolitan (AA ee Crcr Toto)
Sire Seerock In Silver Dam HH Badlands Brandy

This gorgeous little lady (stable name Saffy) popped out at the very civilised hour of 9.30pm on 27th May 2007.  She's beautifully marked, athletic, bold and incredibly pretty - we couldn't have been more pleased with Brandy's first foal.

Saffy will be retained as a Dashdance broodmare for the future, her foals with Josh will all be tobiano with a 25% chance of palomino, buckskin, chestnut or bay as the base, and 50% chance of homozygosity for tobiano.
