Bred by McCulloch Farm and owned by Matton Morgans, Whippoorwill Aristocrat is a 1998 15.2H black Morgan stallion. Fitting in perfectly with Mossrose Morgans' values and breeding goals, Cat is a classically bred 100% Foundation Morgan stallion with a history of athletically bred horses in every line of his pedigree. He has 5 crosses to Jubilee King including close up on the top line of his pedigree through the roping champion, Squire Burger. Additional working western lines on the bottom side create a pedigree that complements any breeding program looking to a sport or performance Morgan.

The proof of all stallions is their progeny. Whippoorwill Aristocrat has consistently produced correct foals with excellent canters, trainability and work ethics. One of his sons, Matton Majestic (out of Whippoorwill Echo), qualified with his owner to compete at the US Dressage Finals in Lexington, KY in 2017. He competed against huge warmbloods and at only 14.2H he scored over 65% in the Second Level Adult Amateur Championship, finishing 14 out of 25 National pairs.

Whippoorwill Morgans have been bred since 1945 for
true Morgan type, soundness through excellent feet and legs, intelligence,
kind disposition, athletic ability, and above all - versatility.
Mossrose Morgans has always had these same goals for their breeding program,
but we have been working at getting a more
consistent type. The combined blood of Whippoorwill Duke and Blackwood
Correll has produced top level champions in reining, dressage and combined
driving in major open competition for Whippoorwill Morgans. With
Whippoorwill Newmoon daughters and other mares of Whippoorwill Duke and Californio breeding,
we are well on our way to producing top notch Morgans that have that consistent
type we have been searching for along with all the other qualities it takes
to be the best!
