MtnTop Alegria

(Universal Gold Card x Tan War Bird)

2011 buckskin filly

Well I waited on pins and needles for this foal to show up and when she finally decided to enter this world I was VERY excited. She is out of one of my best producing mares and by the buckskin stallion, Universal Gold Card, that I purchased last year. This filly, Alegria, whose name means happiness and jubilation in Spanish is exactly how I felt watching her be born. She is the most feminine foal I think I have ever seen. Shoot I hadn't even checked the plumbing and I just knew she was a girl- she was too beautiful not to be.

We are VERY excited to announce that this beautiful young lady will be traveling to her new home the spring of 2012. Alegria is our first overseas sale and will have a wonderful home with Katrin and Michael Trauboth. 

MtnTop Erin Go Braugh

(Mtn Top Whippoorwill Tanek X Tan War Bird)

2010 bay filly (EE Aa)

I am so pleased to announce that the beautiful Erin has found a loving new forever home with the very experienced up and coming talented young horsewoman, Meghan Ward of Michigan. I have known Meghan for a couple of years now and have ridden with her and seen the fantastic way she handles horses. Even though Meghan's family has many beautiful and wonderful Morgan horses Erin will be the first horse to actually be owned by Meghan. I could not be happier for both Erin and Meghan and I will be excited to watch the two of them grow together in the future.

King's Crimson Comet

(Smokestorm X Hilton's Royal Charm)

2008 red dun colt (ee Aa Dd)

I had sent a message out that I would offer "Dunkin" for sale or trade to someone if they wanted a nice dun stallion, or I would have to geld him as I just have TOO many intact boys here on the farm. Well, my prayers were answered. I got a wonderful email from Sharon Keller of Justapesty Morgans in WI and she asked if we could work out a deal. Well we DID!!! Thank you Sharon SO much.

Bar Non Desert Rose

(S Bar B Pierre Noire X Sandrock Bridget)

2006 buckskin mare

I could not be more excited to announce that we have found the most wonderful home for Desi. Jennie of IL has purchased her very first horse!! Jennie has been a long time horse rider and has been a lover of Morgans most of her life, yet she has never actually owned her own horse. So Desi will truly be her first horse. I have enjoyed watching Jennie and Desi together and just love the knowledge that Jennie has about Morgan horses. Welcome Jennie to the wonderful world of Morgans and colorful Morgans as well.

MtnTop Tru Melody

(Mtn Top Whippoorwill Tanek X BRMF The Yellow Rose)

2009 smoky black filly (Ee Cr/cr)

This is one incredible filly and one I thought I would never even consider parting with. She has that "IT" factor. Tru is conformationally correct from her beautiful head following a perfect neck that she carries gracefully. To a nice laid back shoulder and perfect back to a wonderful hip. She is all "Morgan" being feminine and graceful to having just that perfect amount of substance to her bone structure. Smart is an understatement with her. She figures things out in a snap and will sweet talk her way to allowing even the gruffest horse to share their food with her. She loves to strut her stuff and flags that tail of hers even just out trotting around. She has that beautiful movement from her sire that he has to date passed down to all his foals. Natural knee action and perfect forward hock movement, she is truly beautiful to watch move and everyone has to stop what they are doing when she does. Tru's lucky new owners are the Overlys of Fairwind Farm in OH. Congratulations!

MtnTop Kerria of Gold

(Gone Gold x BRMF The Yellow Rose)

2010 palomino filly

My husband did a great job of finding the perfect name for this beautiful palomino filly. Kerria is a Japanese Yellow Rose so she is certainly named after her dam. We added the Gold because of course she is golden in color but also the name Gold shows up numerous times in both Roadie's and Rose's pedigree.

This sweet girl is very curious and sweet. She is boldly marked with a huge blaze that runs into her nose and a white chin that streaks white up between the jaw. She has a super high white stocking and it looks like a half little pastern sock on the other hind. So she could very well be splash and sabino. It also appears that she has blue in her eyes just under the pupil, another indicator that she could be splash.

Kerria's new owners are the Overlys of Fairwind Farm in OH.

Gone Gold

(Adiel's Casino Gold X Kennebec Topaz)

2002 palomino stallion (ee Aa N/Cr)

I am very excited to announce that Gone Gold, aka Roadie, is now owned by Harvey Seidel of the Bar None Ranch in WY. With the loss of Harvey's stallion S Bar B Pierre Noire summer 2009, Roadie will have some very large shoes to fill. But I know he will be up for the task. And he will love every minute of the beautiful country and all the incredible Morgan mares Harvey has waiting for him. This means God has answered my prayers in finding Roadie the perfect home and allowing him to stay a stallion. I believe that it is possible that Harvey will collect and ship on Roadie in the future so if you are interested in a Roadie baby, just check out Harvey's website when you are ready.

MtnTop Forever Hawk

(MtnTop Whippoorwill Tanek x Gar-Don Lady Glimmer)

2007 homozygous for black  colt (EE aa)

This is what it's all about right here in one package. Hawk is a strong combination of the “golden cross” of Jubilee King and Flyhawk/Go Hawk lines, he traces back to Jubilee de Jarnette over 100 times. He is what you would expect of these bloodlines: GREAT temperament, smart, easy going and a fast learner. He is a "people horse" and will leave the herd to be with you. He is very self assured and will do anything asked of him with no complaints. He has the most beautiful legs and the angle of his shoulder is perfect. Tiny dishy head with tippy little ears, large soft eyes. He has wonderful ground manners; walks and trots off your shoulder movement and will dead stop just off your body.

Congratulations and best wishes go to Hawk's new owners, Michael and Carol Yates of Leonard MI.

UPDATE Hawk came back home to MtnTop Morgans for his saddle training in 2011 check out the videos of him on our training page. And an update picture of him as a 3 year old.

MtnTop Mornin' Rain

(Trophy Lippitts Ethan Sam X Pretty Painted World)

2004 chestnut frame overo half Morgan mare

"Rain" was bred on our farm. She is really the best of both worlds with that wonderful Morgan graceful movement that makes it appear as if she is floating. Rain has great ground manners and is a super friendly and in your pocket mare. She gets along with all the horses in the herd. She is foundation on her Morgan side and strong foundation bred on her dam side. My husband really loved riding her sire as he was the smoothest ride around and had such beautiful action. Just amazing to watch and so very comfy to ride. She moves just like him.

Congratulations to her new owner, Bill Gresham of Tipton, MI!

MtnTop Endeavour

(Mtn Top Whippoorwill Tanek X Tan War Bird)

2009 black gelding (EE aa cr/cr)

Born March 31, 2009 at 10:30pm at 318 days did not stop this boy from being a HUGE sturdy balanced baby. Big, Bold and Black is how we describe MtnTop Endeavour (MtnTop Whippoorwill Tanek x Tan War Bird). Solid black with no white (and tested homozygous for black!). He is charming and loving of people and as a foal would rather follow them around then his dam which she is none to happy about. He loves to have his behind scratched and will back up for it to be scratched. This boy has plenty of personality. He will easily mature over 15 hands.

Indy's new owners are Anne and Diane of Creek Side Morgans, Vicksburg, MI.

MtnTop Black Gold

(Gone Gold X Spring Lake Katefly)

2009 black colt, 100% Foundation breeding

Gracing the world on April 21, 2009 at 5:30 PM is the black colt MtnTop Black Gold, aka Diesel. Named after his sire Gone Gold, Diesel is an incredible mix of old Morgan blood. He is 100% Foundation out of my favorite mare, Spring Lake Katefly who is the dam of one of my stallions. I love everything this mare has put on the ground and Diesel is no exception. Diesel is a perfect mix of Jubilee King and Ashbrook/Lippitt brought in from both the sire and the dam.

Diesel's new owner is Judy Roberts of Ohio. Judy purchased and still owns a wonderful Morgan gelding that she purchased from us several years ago, Dakota Jasper. Our Morgans are like potato chips- you can't just have one!

MtnTop Xavier

(Coachman's Cognac X Springlake Katefly)

2008 chestnut sabino gelding

“X” is one very nice colt. He has plenty of bone yet shows a great deal of refinement. X is one chromed out boy and his two super high stockings accent his great movement. Add in a front full sock and one with a touch of white and he is a super showy boy.

A huge congratulations goes out to Virginia Halfpenny on the purchase of X, who will be joining Ginny and her Morgan mare, Noble Playgirl at her farm in Berlin, MA. Ginny and her mare currently compete in driving along the East coast, and Ginny's plans are to teach X to ride and drive and join her mare in pairs driving. Keep an eye out for X - you may just see him competing at the GMHA.

Springlake Fancy Boy

(SpringLake Pallidin x DJJJ Midnight Fancy)

2008 chestnut gelding

Barn name - Snickers as he is always doing something to make you giggle. He is a smart boy and thinks things out. He has that "I learned that, can we move on" attitude going on which makes him a quick learner. Snickers is a BIG boy and will be big; he should mature to around 15.3. His sire's blood is rich in old world Morgan blood and his dam has that great sport horse lines flowing through her veins. Snickers could very easily be a sport horse. Snickers' new home will be with a very wonderful young lady in Tampa, FL.

Spring Lake Lady Nikki

(Whippoorwill Talisman X Gar-Don Mystic Jade)

2006 black mare (pictured in winter coat, January 2009)

I am very excited to announce the Sale of SpringLake Lady Nikki to Jerri Ostendorf of TX. Nikki will continue her education with Jerri's trainer, Reagan Mabray Barry, to become an all around Morgan horse. She will be Jerri's dressage, trail and family horse, as well as her new best friend I am sure. We could not ask for a better home for our sweet Nikki and I know she will be loved dearly and spoiled rotten with Jerri.

MtnTop Miss Sun Bird

(Coachman's Cognac X Tan War Bird)

2008 palomino filly

“Missy” is bold and fearless yet super gentle and loves being around people. There's not a mean bone in her body. She nickers and comes running when she sees you. Missy taught herself to cross our makeshift bridge and taught herself to load in the stock trailer all by herself. She shows no fear yet took her time in checking out each object by circling them and making sure they couldn’t “bite” her. As soon as she figured out they were no threat to her, she just jumped on (took her about 10 minutes for each obstacle). When learning to tie the first time (I use the Tie Block ring) she gave one tiny little attempt at a pull and figured this is no big deal; she didn’t stress over it at all.

Congratulations to Missy's new owner, Terri L. of NC!

UPDATE: Missy, aka Fanny is another of my foals that came home for saddle training please check out all her videos (4 of them) on my Training page.

New picture of Fanny as a 3 year old

Dakota Jasper

(Dakota Sun Raez x Tan War Bird)

2007 bay colt

Congratulations to Judy Roberts of Ohio, Jasper new owner! Judy is a life-long "Morgan person".Jasper will be her new best friend!

UPDATE:  I feel very blessed that so many of my babies come back to me as adults to start their saddle training.  And Jasper was no different.  

Please click here to see videos of Jasper in training.  And I have inserted one of his pictures as a 4 year old as well.

SPRING LAKE MIDNITE MYSTIC

(Spring Lake Thistle x Gar-Don Mystic Jade)

2011 black filly

This nice big filly is so very friendly and secure in her own skin it is so much fun to watch. She has no trouble leaving Mom, much to her dismay, and hanging out with the older yearlings. She is a pocket pony for sure except for her size. She will easily mature to over 15 hands. She has two outstanding parents that are very easygoing and have a been there, done that attitude.

Gar-Don Lady Glimmer

(Glick's Sir Lancelot X H-Vee Hawk's Twilight)

2003 black mare

Congratulations to Carol Metayer of Vermont. Imme has joined Carol's band of Morgans where she will be used for competitive trail and endurance. You might even see her out on the Morgan Mile!

Spring Lake Nellie Ann

(Spring Lake Pallidin x L'Cima Hollywood Star)

2008 black mare

Big, bold, beautiful and black all this wrapped up in this incredible young mare. Nellie is close to 14.3 at the young age of 2 years old. She is super curvy in all the right places, has a super hip and a head that will make you drool. She is sweet and smart. Her dam has multiple driving and English pleasure championships under her belt.  Retired from showing, Nellie's dam is now a great trail horse and has many overnight campouts to her credit as well. Nellie's sire is the fantastic favorite on the farm, Pal, whose sire was a Grand National Driving Champion. So this girl should do anything asked of her. She moves like there is no tomorrow, just beautiful.

Nellie's new owners are the Overlys of Fairwind Farm in OH.

SPRINGLAKE AMBER SKY

(SpringLake Pallidin x Amberfields Ima Velvet Stone)

2010 chestnut filly, 100% Foundation

WOW this is the first foal out of Velvet and she is indeed a great beauty!!! Velvet is a full Lippitt and crossing her with Pal and his much older Lippitt lines was a wonderful cross. So Sky is about 3/4 at least Lippitt if not more. She is VERY smart and level headed for such a young girl. She will be a nice stout full bodied young thing with just the right about of feminine wiles about her. Congratulations Michelle and Wayne Post of Florida.

Willy's Liberty Belle

(Spring Lake Thistle X SEM Faithfully Yours)

2008 chestnut filly

"Libby" has it all in the gene pool-  on her dam's side she is a Treble's Willy Wild granddaughter, along with Noble Command, and on her sire's side she is double Trophy in 5 and 6 generations. Throw in her Whippoorwill Duke lines and she is as lovely and smart as her lines tell you she should be.

Libby is a pocket pest and just loves human company. She will leave the herd to come running to you when she sees you. If given the chance she would probably climb in your lap. She is VERY smart and has just loved to learn, picking things up not only quickly but she retains the information. She will stand all day to be brushed and loved on.

Libby has found a wonderful home with a family in Florida, and one of her stablemates is another horse from our breeding program!

Spring Lake Gypsy Rose

(Springlake Pallidin x Southbrook Trophy’s Summer)

2008 chestnut filly

This is such a wonderful story I just had to share. It all started back at the end of 2007 when I was contacted by Jennifer Murdock of Can-Do Morgans from WY. She was excited that she had found my website and had seen my mom's stallion, Spring Lake Pallidin, aka Pal (Spring Lake Peter D x Dulcie Lenda) as she also had a daughter by Peter D. She had been trying to get her mare in foal for over 5 years with no luck. She inquired about any offspring of Pal and I told her I would keep her posted. So last year when Pal had 2 fillies, I emailed Jennifer. She was so excited about the filly Spring Lake Gypsy Rose, aka Lolo (Spring Lake Pallidin x Southbrook Trophys Summer) that she wanted to buy her. Well as we all know life can get in the way sometimes and due to some unforeseen forces Jennifer had to inform us that she could not get Lolo.

When I went to my Mom's to pick up horses this past December I took a few picture of Lolo for the website. I decided to send Jennifer the pictures as well. When she emailed me back she mentioned that her Trophy mare had passed on in November and she didn't get a foal from her either. Lolo was the perfect combination of Spring Lake Peter D and the Trophy lines that she loved so much. So it is with GREAT excitement that I announce the sale of Spring Lake Gypsy Rose to Jennifer Murdock of Can-Do Morgans. I know this will be a perfect home for Lolo and she will be loved very much, probably spoiled as well.

Springlake Cinnamonpepper

(Whippoorwill Talisman X L'Cima Hollywood Star)

2006 chestnut mare

Pepper is one of the sweetest, nicest coming 3 year old mares I have come across in a long time. She is very sensible with a loving temperament to match. With her incredible smooth curvy hip and shoulder you can easily see where her nice movement comes from. Throw in a gorgeous head and she is a great package. With her bloodlines she will be able to do anything you ask of her- from reining like her Champion grandsire, Whippoorwill Newmoon, to driving like her Champion driving dam, L’Cima Hollywood Star, or anything in between.

Pepper is a high quality mare and her bloodlines shine through in everything that she does. She has wonderful ground manners and knows all the basics. Pepper should mature to 15 hands with no problem. Congratulations to her new owner, Ken Oosting of TN.

L'Cima Hollywood Star

(Reland Big Eddy X L'Cima First Lady)

1993 chestnut mare

Holly has multiple driving and English pleasure championships under her belt. Some of her many wins include first in 3 year old Pleasure Driving Mares, Section B at the 1996 CT All Morgan, first in Novice Classic Pleasure Driving at the 1999 Delmarva Classic, Classic Pleasure Driving Champion at Mason-Dixon in 1999, Classic Pleasure Driving Champion at the 1999 and 2000 Mid Atlantic Show, and Classic Pleasure Driving Champion at the 1999 Delmarva Summer Classic.

This mare has the fastest trot I have ever had the pleasure to sit. While all the other horses are breaking into a canter, she can leave them in the dust with her big, super smooth trot. Holly has given us 3 outstanding foals and we expect no less of her in the future. Congratulations to her new owner, Julie Russell of Odessa, FL!

MtnTop Phoenix Rising

(Mtn Top Whippoorwill Tanek x WAR Le Fire Bird)

2011 black colt, 100% Foundation

I was excited to see this foal born and from day one I have not been disappointed. Right away he was sweet sweet sweet and much to the dismay of his dam he would follow me around. He is a talker and nickers just about every time I talk to him. He has that super cute dishy head and the tiniest ears, long legged with great joint size. He will be big, in the 15.1 hand size. He is a beautiful mover, and lopes around like he was trained for western pleasure already. Cute little collected thing going on. It looks like his movements are effortless!!!

We are very happy to announce that Phoenix has a wonderful new home with Sandra Kosek-Sills of Ohio and her family. Phoenix will be very spoiled as Sandra's young daughter and Phoenix really took to each other when they came to visit. What a joy and fun times ahead for them. Congrats Sandra and thank you.

MTNTOP MARCUS AURELIUS

(Spring Lake Pallidin x BRMF The Yellow Rose)

2011 brown gelding, 100% Foundation

I am super excited to announce that my last baby of the year has found the perfect home. MtnTop Marcus Aurelius will be heading to his new home to live with Lorri Sills. Lorrie came to visit with her sister in law, who owns MtnTop Phoenix Rising, and while she was here she played with Marcus. Well I do think we can all see how well that turned out for all of us, especially for Marcus as I could not be happier with his new forever home.
