Horses Available to purchase
Each year, we offer a limited number of our foals or young offspring to the public and even more rarely, one of our mares or a broke gelding. Many of these horses are either slated to attend the summer shows, or were in our show string in years past. All of our youngsters are extensively handled with appropriate training for their age and growth stages. When you buy from us, rest assured that what is advertised is what you will get!
**New in 2022** We have started to offer consignment services on a limited basis for friends and clients. These horses are carefully evaluated and represented using the same standards of quality and transparency that we employ in marketing our own prospects.
We want our customers to be thrilled with their new addition and to be confident in coming back to purchase another!
Lucasia Ragnarock DOB 2/20/2023 (LD's Legacy Yammer Hammer x Knepp's Rachel)
In early spring of 2024 "Ragnar" as he has become known here at the farm arrived. Our friends at Lucasia Ranch inspected colts from 2023 and sent us a good one to take to the summer shows in the states for the 2024 season. This confident and attractive gelding is going to make someone a fantastic partner in any future endeavor! Ragnar currently measures 16.3 and is expected to mature near or at 17hh. He has a fantastic work ethic and loves to have something new to do during his lessons. He has received age-appropriate lessons in body control (yielding shoulders/hips, backing, isolating movement to a single leg, sidestepping, etc) and has been introduced to lunging, in addition to taking walks around the property to inspect new sights. He has good stall manners, stands calmly tied (both straight or in crossties) is good for clipping and bathing and wrapping/handling legs. Ragnar is very adjustable in his gaits - if you are looking for a horse who can generate a big, powerful trot and then gear back to a slow, effortless jog and then step into a fluid and soft canter, this is a colt to consider. He could be a serious competitor in both under saddle and driven events as a mature horse. Ragnar is very smart and fun to work; he loves spending time with his people learning some new skill!
Ragnar attended a few summer shows with us; the National Percheron show (held during the Indiana State Fair), the Iowa State Fair and the LaPorte County draft horse show. He had very respectable placings at all of them and was calm and professional in the new settings. He settled in like he'd been to dozens of shows and took all the new sights and sounds in stride.
** As of April of 2025, Ragnar has been gelded and is currently being lightly started in harness, assisting a local farm in soil conditioning and other light-duty jobs appropriate for a jr horse just learning their career. He has taken to these new things with the enthusiasm and interest we have come to expect from Ragnar.
Ragnarock is priced at $5000
Tradewinds Boston DOB 1/1/2025 (Tradewinds Flint x Lauricia Black Bess)
We eagerly awaited the arrival of our first foals by jr stallion, Tradewinds Flint; would they be as personable and smart as the foals we enjoyed from his sire? Thankfully, Bess very quickly gave us a chance to meet one!
Boston is all the things we had hoped for in this pairing - he is very correct, with an animated trot and a good canter. He is kind, smart and very interested in all the things his people are doing around him. We feel he could shine in performance classes as a mature horse; both in harness or under saddle.
Currently he is enjoying learning new skills in a few lessons a week; he is broke to lead, tie (both straight and in crossties) and has learned body control cues (backing, yielding shoulders, yielding hips, etc). We have introduced clippers, bathing, fly sprays and are beginning to introduce small obstacles to step over/on.
We are constantly impressed with how quickly and calmly he picks up new skills! Boston is pssm1 n/n by parentage and is expected to mature in the 17hh range.
we are asking $3500 for him; offers would be considered for a fantastic situation!
