The Promise Fulfilled

   We purchased Ken-Mar Winston in hopes that his pedigree would return us to the days of old when Morgan horses had beautiful heads,small tipped-in ears, large flat cannon bones, large quiet eyes, a clean throat latch, and a swan-like neck rising out of the back not out of the shoulders as seen in some popular bloodlines. What we were hopeful for and what Winston's pedigree promised, was size, heart, intelligence,long-lived, and the famous Morgan curiousity. All these attributes and more have reached fulfillment in Winston's first non-Amish foal, R'surene First Date. Dottie will mature between 15.1-15.2 h. barefoot.

    In ten minutes Dottie was broke to tie; in another fifteen minutes she was in the cross-ties being groomed. She learned how to park out in three days and is accepting her new training in true Morgan fashion. Dottie is not a "dead" Morgan; on the contrary she is a "controlled firecracker" with sense and is easily trained. At our age we still like to see a Morgan flag its tail and go "over level"; but we still want a horse who will sympathize with knee replacements, COPD, and the slowness that comes with old age.

    If Dottie is any indication, Winston has fulfilled all our expectations. We will have two more Winston foals on the ground in June: one by a 15.2 h. classic pleasure mare and one by a Waseeka Showtime daughter. For those of you looking to return to the classic pedigree and conformation please consider Dottie. Dottie's price does NOT reflect her quality; rather, it is a chance for the amateur owner/rider to have the joy of training a show quality Morgan by themselves and thereby proving that a good Morgan horse truly chooses you for a lifetime commitment. Everyone should be able to afford a quality Morgan with a quality pedigree; that is our mission and has been for the past 53 years.
