Ranchboss Cortez - April 1999 (Primavera Valdez X Telura's BlackGold), 15'2hh, is Australia's very first coloured pure Morgan. He is a stunning buckskin (EE Aa Crn); his coat shot with spun gold, with the temperament of a gelding but with the presence of a magnificent stallion. Cortez will never produce a chestnut foal.

Cortez is also classified as a Foundation Morgan.

For us, temperament is on the top of the list of 'must haves', and this stallion has sweetness, kindness and willingness in abundance.

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 Oak Morgan stud. Wendy particularly wanted Cortez's bloodlines as he comes from a rare western working line - as pure as old Californian "ranchhorse" bloodlines come. His foals born in USA & Australia have been sold by the age of 15 months. His first Aussie baby was sold at 5 days of age.

Cortez has produced foals from live cover, fresh and chilled semen. His fertility is unquestionable.

Cortez has proven his ability in Dressage since he arrived in Australia, and is currently being trained in Reining, and showing huge potential.

Cortez is available for AI - fresh or chilled semen.
