Both World Grand Champions... Precious - SMOOTH trail horse - $2500! Indy - out of RWC Mare and WC Stallion

It is our mission to breed the perfect horse...

one that a child or amateur rider can win on at show jumping or any versatility event, take on a nice slow trail ride, compete at endurance when you want to go fast - and at the end of the day - give your child a lesson on him. In order to accomplish this - we breed only the best to the best. We have two World Grand Champion stallions with wins in multiple different breeds and disciplines, that we breed to Top 10 in the World or better champion mares - to create the best of the best. You won't find any broodmares here. Dr. Alexandra Cooper says of Leo, Pride, Princess, JAKS & Ms. T - "These are the perfect horses for children to jump - they are effortless to ride, they stop and turn on a dime and they take care of their rider. They are not so huge as to be intimidating, they are willing, kind and a pleasure to jump - and we win consistently at the USEF and Open Jumping shows. I firmly believe that these Foxtrotters, Spotted Saddle Horses and Pintos will be the future of the jumping horse. For us moms that want their child to have a safe jumping horse that can grow with you even up to open jumping – these are the horses for you. The best part being that you can ride them too – they are safe for any rider - that is their greatest gift – their kind temperament and desire to take care of you. "

Proud home of Leo and Pride - our wonderful stallions - father and son - both World Grand Champions.

Leo is the first horse in history to win 3 different breed World Championships in all 3 divisions - Youth, Amateur and Open (Pinto, MFTHBA & SSHBEA).

Thank you to Ali Cooper, Jessica Drysdale and Cheryl Brock for their tireless efforts, practice and amazing training to win these events at the World Championship Show. There is nothing easy about preparing for a show like this - it is 14 hour days of back breaking work every day and you all really stepped up to the plate. You are the best!

. If you need a fantastic western trainer in North Carolina please look Jessica Drysdale up at www.DrysdaleHorsemanship.com . She works wonders with any horse.

FOXTROTTERS CAN JUMP! These amazing foxtrotters (who aren't known to be jumping horses) can jump high. Leo and JAKS jump 4 feet high and 3 feet wide. Most horses that jump like this are worth $50,000 or more. Many 17 hand horses cannot jump this high...Leo is 14.3 hands and JAKS is 15 hands. It usually takes a year of training 5 days a week to get one horse to perform like this and some never get this far. Ali has worked with them once a week for 6 months. She gets all the credit for being a fantastic rider and trainer and they get the credit for having the ability and the heart to do it. Check out the video below!
