Stallions were chosen for conformation, performance, pedigree and quality of their existing
offspring. We have not been disappointed! Photos of stallions below.
Feuertanzer
Our Anglo-Trakehners are both by the Trakehner stallion Feuertanzer (Martini). Feuertanzer was an
obvious choice du to his incredible scores when presented to ATA for breeding license, although an injury prevented Feuertanzer
from finishing his performance requirements. His wonderful nature, ease of trainability and topline are amazing
and we knew he'd cross well with a TB. The goal with the resulting offspring (both fillies) is to breed them back to
Connemaras for outstanding WB/Connemara crosses.
*Gunsmoke
The first connemara stallion we used for our half-bred breeding program was *Gunsmoke. An outstanding
sire and competitor, *Gunsmoke was shown in eventing and unfortunately ended up back in Ireland! He did provide us with
Black Dog's Fiona (out of Lexy), who is an excellent example of the TB/Conn cross. Black Dog's Fiona won her 4 year
old USEA test in Texas in May 2008. She received 8's on her gaits. When he was exported, we turned to his stallion
son, WH Top Gun.
WH Top Gun
Approved connemara stallion son of *Gunsmoke, Top Gun was used in our breeding program for both a purebred (Loughin's
Leighseach) and for a halfbred foal (Fiorella). Both foals are exceptional (Mia and Annie) and we will continue to use
Top Gun in our breeding program!
JUNE 2009: WH Top Gun was the Grand Champion Connemara at the Region 4 Connemara Show!
Seven Hill's Grey Ghost
An approved ACPS stallion, Mosby has sired many proven performers for Donna Duckworth and other ACPS breeders.
Mosby produced an excellent colt (now gelding), Toby, when bred to Swift Ocoee River. Their first son, Nicholas Mosse,
is a young stallion in Arizona.
