Haymeron Park Ruby Jane, our one and only Foundation Morgan Mare is a full Lippett Morgan and will produce Foundation Morgan foals with RanchBoss Cortez, our buckskin western working Foundation Morgan Stallion.
We suspect this mare will produce a colt foal on January 01 2009. The position of the embryo made this one a little harder to detect.
About Haymeron Park Ruby Jane
Haymeron Park Ruby Jane 15hh - Born Nov 2003 - (Karenza Apollo X Karenza Amethyst) is an outstanding mare from full Lippett bloodlines. She is one of 12.6% of mares registered since 2000 who qualify for the elite title of Foundation Morgan.
Ruby Jane (RJ) displays all the historical attributes bestowed upon the Morgan horse. She is a horse who loves to please. She leaves the herd which can be way out of sight over the hill, simply to come to us to say hello and invite us to do something with her, be it a ride or just a scratch. As a green broke horse, with just an hour or two riding under her belt, RJ led a group of horses on a trail ride, as brave as a horse who'd done it a hundred times before.
This wonderful mare has fluid, elastic movement and has competed at Dressage where I proudly accepted the first place ribbons, she so deservedly won. She has also won in the Show Ring, sporting the wide green, Reserve Champion Sash in 2007.
As RJ is colour coat tested as EE AA (two black genes, EE, and two bay genes, AA), she will provide us with either bay or buckskin Foundation foals with Cortez, who will, without doubt, prove to be Morgans with sensible minds and the capability to suit any discipline one chooses.
About RanchBoss Cortez
Ranchboss Cortez 15'2hh - Born April 1999 (Primavera Valdez X Telura's BlackGold) is Australia's very first coloured Morgan. He is a stunning buckskin; his coat shot with spun gold, with the temperament of a gelding but with the presence of a magnificent stallion.
Bred and raised in California USA, by Nina Bates of Bossert Ranch, Cortez was started at the age of five and given three months training as a Western Reining horse, before being leased for stud duties to Wendy Le Gate of Old Growth Morgans stud. Wendy particularly wanted Cortez's Foundation bloodlines as he comes from a rare western working line - as pure as old Californian "ranchhorse" bloodlines come.
Cortez has produced foals from live cover, fresh, frozen and chilled semen. His fertility is unquestionable and he has settled our mares in foal with just one service.
For those interested in colour genetics Cortez is EE Aa Crn - which of course, means a buckskin who will never produce chestnut babies.
Cortez performed extremely well in Dressage in his first year in Australia. Shortly after his arrival in Australia, he qualified for the 2006 Queensland State Dressage Championships in just two outings. He then went to a Reining trainer, and is showing huge potential in that arena as well. Cortez is available for AI - fresh or chilled semen. Enquiries are most welcome.
