Welcome
MtnTop Xavier (Coachman's Cognac X Springlake
Katefly), a chestnut colt with lots of chrome, who was foaled April 23 at 4:30 PM.
He is for sale.
I am very blessed to be a third generation Morgan
breeder and owner. I work in conjunction with my mother Niven Owings,
whose Spring Lake Farm is centrally located in Lake Wales, FL. My
great aunt Ethel Gardner started our breeding program 50 years ago this year
with her great stallion, The Yankee (Whippoorwill Duke X
Jenny Lake). She instilled a strong sense in me that the Morgan Horse should be a
versatile horse. Pick your horse for his correct conformation, intelligence, disposition and versatility; then pick your discipline,
change your discipline, use the same horse. With the Morgan
this is easy to do as they are known for their quick and
flexible minds, calm and steady way of going- along with their
BIG loving hearts. To learn more about my great aunt and the
contribution she made to the Morgan Horse world, please read
this article about her from the August 2003 issue of The Morgan Horse
magazine, titled "Yankee Ingenuity", written by Sue Brander.
Our hopes are to produce foals that match or exceed the expectations that we have of their parents. In essence, each foal should be better than the sire
and dam. This results in a
classic Morgan, with a chiseled head and tippy ears, a full curvy body along with strong sturdy legs and fabulous “Morgan” feet.
By carefully selecting and matching mares to stallions, we believe that is what we are accomplishing at our farms.
Because of this, sometimes we only produce a few foals each year, but I think it is worth the wait.
Our foundation lines are rich in old blood with such respected Morgans
as Squire Burger, Lippitt, Flyhawk, Ulendon, Blackwood Correll, Mentor, Californio, Archie O, Swanee and Gay Dancer
featured in their pedigrees. We are honored to have some of the closest living relatives to Figure in our herds.
At MtnTop Morgans in Brooklyn, MI we have been able to add a few colorful
Morgans that we hope will have a great influence on the foals we produce. Above and beyond, we strive to produce the “perfect foal”; if this foal also happens to be colorful, then that is wonderful too.
