Legacy is what a stallion consistently passes down to his get whether it be good or bad traits. When one considers a breeding stallion, one must adhere to the Morgan ideal. As more and more horses are showcased by trainers favoring particular bloodlines, the gene pool diminishes. The eventual result is the good traits are often cancelled out by the inherent genetic problems known to that particular line. Eventually a mare owner must step back and reassess the Morgan ideal; ultimately one has to go to the source and remember...

    The old bloodines are the outcross that keeps our breed honest; unfortunately the old lines are being lost. Here at R'surene Morgan Farm we are perpetuating the old "show" lines with consistant results. Below are pictures taken on May 15, 2010 which demonstrate the powerful "stamp" of the old lines upon the modern bloodlines. Such is Winston's legacy to his get: a bolt upright neck rising out of the back, not out of the withers; a well laid back shoulder; strong flat cannon bones; beautiful head with tiny tipped-in ears, above average height, and a chest that holds the heart of a winner.
