Whippoorwill Newmoon x LBF Cajun Queen
|
|
We hope to bring our Morgans into modern times while keeping an eye on the heritage of the breed. This cross definitely keeps heritage in mind. It goes back to the well for some old bloodlines with our 32 year old multi-champion reining stallion Whippoorwill Newmoon and the lovely 17 year old competitive trail riding mare LBF Cajun Queen. As Newmoon nears the end of the trail, I can't thank Polly Smith and Noel Radcliffe enough for making Queen available to carry Newmoon's final foal. You both have hearts of gold and we are grateful. 100% Foundation bloodlines.

Whippoorwill Aristocrat x Mossrose Ysabella
|
|
The second foal expected in 2021 will be a new cross. Tonya Bruno of Matton Morgans in Hillsborough, North Carolina and I have a shared love of the Whippoorwill Morgans. We both built our breeding herds on these lines with the help of our mentor and friend, Mary Jean Vasiloff. Tonya was kind enough to let her successful dressage stallion, Whippoorwill Aristocrat, move West to our farm. Cat is one of just a few stallions with a sire line to Whippoorwill Duke. With a pedigree that has performance horses on every line of his pedigree, we are very excited to see this foal out of Mossrose Ysabella. Bella is a wonderful riding horse with a no muss no fuss personality. Bella qualifies as one of the sweetest horses we've ever had the pleasure of knowing! She takes after her dam, Whippoorwill Salus (by Califonio) in so many ways. 100% Foundation bloodlines.

Whippoorwill Aristocrat x Mossrose Fiesta Gold
|
|
In May of 2021 we are expecting a dynamite foal by Whippoorwill Aristocrat and the gorgeous Mossrose Fiesta Gold. From day 1, Fiesta has shown an abundance of natural athletic ability and beauty. John has been riding her and she is going good in the arena and out on the trails. This will be Fiesta's first foal and I can't imagine it will be anything less than spectacular! This cross will bring forward a beautifully linebred pedigree of Red Correll and Squire Burger. Red Correll through his son Blackwood Correll as well as the handsome Squire Burger through his son Whippoorwill Duke and daughter Whippoorwill Melody. 100% Foundation bloodlines.

OGO Luna Illuminati x Mossrose Dandy Jewel
|
|
This is the fourth foal expected at Mossrose Morgans in 2021. It's a new cross and also part of the first foal crop for the 14 year old stalion OGO Luna Illuminati. 5 years ago we sold a lovely young Whippoorwill Newmoon daughter named Mossrose Moondancer to Illuminati's owner. This year each of us worked to get our Newmoon daughters in foal to Illuminati. Jewel has crossed beautifully with Flyhawk bred stallions producing big, tall, athletic, sport-type foals. Illuminati's top side is nicely line bred to Flyhawk with additional crosses to Knox Morgan and Jubilee King. However, Illuminati's bottom side brings in old Whippoorwill breeding through one of the early Grand Prix dressage stallions, Whippoorwill Ebony (7 registered offspring) as well as the sweet riding mare Whippoorwill Jazana. There are very few descendants of these particular Whippoorwill Morgans. We are honored to be able to perpetuate them for the future. 100% Foundation bloodlines.

Mossrose Miss Montana
|
|
This is the sixth cross for Whippoorwill Newmoon and Mossrose Ysabella. After 5 colts in a row, Bella had a smoky black filly on April 16, 2020. Mossrose Miss Montana is destined to be a grand mare! Tana was chosen by Jack and Nadette Stang to be part of the Gladheart Farm Morgans in Corvallis, Oregon. With Tana's performance focused pedigree and natural talent, she should serve them well. 100% Foundation bloodlines.

Mossrose Mark Time

This is the first foal born to the buckskin stallion, Edgefield Patriot, and I am thrilled with him! Patriot is a nice smooth mover with a wonderful disposition. I have always admired Sunup Neptune, Patriot's grandsire. I was able to meet Neptune in person and raise two of his foals, so I've been looking forward to this foal. 100% Foundation breeding. Born on Memorial Day, Marcus is a big substsantial colt that is as friendly as can be. He is homozygous black and shedding out to a rich dark bay. Marcus has some sort of quality I can only describe as endearing. There is something about him that draws us to him. We are going to hang on to Marcus for a while and see how he matures.

Mossrose Ysabella (Montana Harvest x Whippoorwill Salus) had a buckskin colt on May 5.
His sire is Whippoorwill Newmoon. This colt is growing well and really changing colors a lot. He resembles his dam in that he is very laid back & nothing seems to bother him. Pictures taken at 3 days old.

Whippoorwill Capella was born May 16, 2010. She is by Whippoorwill Newmoon
and out of Whippoorwill Halo. What a terrific cross. This black filly was born at Mossrose Morgans and is owned by
McCulloch Farm. Capella is sweet, sweet, sweet!!! She is easy going, bold, athletic to beat the band and
has practically trained herself to lead! Wonderful!

This colt was born July 15, 2010. His sire is Whippoorwill Newmoon and his dam is
Whippoorwill Salus. We are impressed with this boy and will be retaining him
for a stallion prospect.
He is quite tall compared to past Salus foals. He thinks quite
highly of himself, has a great sense of humor and bold attitude. We have given him the barn name
"Rocket," so you can about imagine his personality! He is exceptional in all areas to date. |
