LBF GAY ENCHANTMENT
(H-Ken X LBF Gay Enchantress)
1997 bay mare
"Mandy," the smallest of our mares at 14h, is the alpha mare. Clearly the leader, she is cat-quick and learns so fast. She has Old Government Remount lines on top and the bloodlines today called "Working Western" on the bottom. Yet she also carries crosses to Jubilee King and Flyhawk. The produce of Mandy bred to Brio carries at least six crosses to Gay Mac, which in turn means an equal number of crosses to Daniel Lambert through Gay Mac's dam, Dewdrop--on just this one line! Mansfield blood is almost beyond counting in this cross. Mandy's double Fleetfield lines to Goldfield strengthen the Government breeding, and the double crosses to Montcrest Sellman tie in beautifully with her line to Warhawk. All three major sons of Justin Morgan are represented in the pedigree of these foals.
We purchased Mandy as a yearling from Polly Smith of Little Brook Farm in VT.
When we got Mandy home we really fell in love with everything about her-her personality,
her tractable disposition, and her quick mind. She was the fastest horse to learn something I have ever trained.
It was always like, "So is that all you want me to do?" I have enjoyed showing off with her in the aisle of the barn for visitors who all want to know how you teach a horse
to come to you without touching her, to the off side, to the tailgate of a pickup truck and
to have her stand there while you climb down on her.
Well, in Mandy's case, you don't. She taught herself.
Mandy is all business about everything. I have ponied young stock on her. She has always been in a halter or a hackamore and will stop
on the pull and slack with one hand. Her foals have been the same way about people and training. She is, all in all, just a wonderful creature.

GAB CREEK GAY MASHANTA
(Primavera Valdez X Rose Hill LaPapillon)
1995 chestnut mare
Shanta is a full sister to
our stallion PKR Primavera Brio. She is a deep-bodied, well-coupled mare whose appearance makes a strong case
for the Morgan contribution to the origins of the Quarter Horse. Shanta has the potential to be a reiner.
Her top line barely moves when you watch her canter at liberty. She was trained to drive by a former Morgan World Champion.
Shanta's pedigree, like that of Brio, is representative of Sherman, Woodbury and Bulrush. The blood of Valdez and Rose
Hill LaPapillon trace to those famous three through Gay Mac, Mahan Field, Deerfield Challenger, Cap's Com-ette, and
Hylee's Cinnabar, through The Admiral, Daniel Lambert and Ethan Allen III.

ALTHEA MORO
(Cameron of Quietude X Misty Morning Dew)
1995 chestnut mare
Althea Moro is a highly-concentrated Brunk-blood mare tracing through Criterion to Jubilee King, and through Super-Rey Movita to Moscovia, on BOTH sides of her pedigree. Totally unflappable, she has heavy bone, short cannons, and is powerfully built.
Because of Althea and Brio both being foaled from very senior sires and dams, their offspring are heavily linebred Brunk foals with the oldest blood up close. With Brio's refinement and Althea's heavy bone, they are exceptional foals.

GAB CREEK ROSADO
(PKR Primavera Brio X LBF Gay Enchantment)
2002 chestnut mare
"Rosie" is the first of three line bred offspring of Brio. Her
dam "Mandy" is a granddaughter of Gay Vaquero, a Nelsen-bred horse
of similar lines to
Primavera Valdez, so this cross is true "line breeding". John made the
mistake of picking her up every day for three weeks when she was a foal and fell in love with her. Born a bright red chestnut she turned black but bleaches to liver every summer. While her dam is a flat 14h she got height (is 14.3h) and a chiseled head from Brio. As Joyce says she has always thought whatever John says was ok and is
thus willing to do anything and would come in the house and make herself a peanut butter sandwich if she had hands.
Rosie's dam is the "Queen" (alpha mare), so "Rosie" is the "Princess" and is a dominant horse. John took her to a church "Trunk or Treat" at Halloween and all these barefooted little children were standing next to her reaching in the saddle bags for candy; the Great Pumpkin was no big deal either. In the spring
of 2008 John took her to a Bob King Cow Work clinic and she was really a green horse and had NEVER seen a cow. Bob said to ride her into the herd and move a heifer out so John rode her in soft, she hooked on to a cow, and Bob said "obviously John has a lot of experience with livestock". John
was thinking "no, what we have here is right out of Dances With Wolves, when one Sioux Warrior says 'he must be a mighty warrior' and the other says 'no, he is just a
stupid white man with a smart horse'. John can call her by name out of the herd and have her come just like
a dog. She is a special one.
