Dont Skip Lester

2006 Sorrel Gelding

Lester was born on March 1st, 2006.  He is a stunning sorrel with lots of chrome and presence!  He has four white socks and a blaze that will be sure to get you noticed in the ring. Sired by Dont Skip Zip: AQHA, NSBA, and Equistat Leading Sire. Lester is out of a well bred daughter of the great Dynamic Deluxe, with a multiple futurity winning maternal grand-dam. He has a great head set, is very slow legged, and a disposition that will take training very well. He is calm, sane and great natured. Lester is already showing loads of potential while he lopes in place out in the pasture.  Short backed, great mover. 

As of November, 2007: Lester has started his training for the early futurities with Stan Patton of Monett, Missouri.

Im Potentially Lopin

2006 Bay Filly

     Louise has lots of potential and was born on March 4th, 2006.  She is by Potential Investment, who needs no introduction. Louise’s dam, Lopin My Mercedes, earned over 37 points in one year of showing, as well as multiple circuit championships, all around championships and points in 4 events. Her dam is a solid 15.3 hands tall. Louise is an outstanding mover who is certain to follow in her parents footsteps, and likely mature taller than her dam. She is very slow legged, flat-kneed and has enough bone and height to handle training as a two-year old. This is a fabulous prospect!

Currently in training under saddle with Stan Patton in Missouri.

The Crowd Is Captive

2006 Sorrel Filly

            Sylvia was born April 10, 2006. Watch out for this outstanding filly in the years to come, she is one of the last foals ever of The Last Captive.   Sylvia is a natural hunt seat prospect and should mature to a solid 16.2+ hands. Her maternal grand-dam Easy To Cuss, was a Reserve Highpoint in the nation in hunt seat events and has over 110 AQHA points. Additionally, Easy To Cuss is the dam of A Song For Sonny, who earned over 57 points in Open and Amateur HUS as a 3-year-old; she is also the dam of 3-y-o HUS Futurity winner, One Easy Minute who is currently being shown. Sylvia has the disposition and breeding to make a top prospect for the serious All-around or HUS competitor. She has a great slope to her shoulder, has good bone, and enough size to easily start as a two-year old for the futurities.

Dont Skip Stanley

2007 Sorrel Colt

Stanley was born March 19, 2007 at 4:00 am. He is a full brother to Lester (as seen in our Foals 2006 page). Sired by Dont Skip Zip: AQHA, NSBA, and Equistat Leading Sire. Stanley is out of a well bred daughter of the great Dynamic Deluxe, with a multiple futurity winning maternal grand-dam. Stanley appears to be the full package - he has a gorgeous head - nice low set to his neck - and strong topline. He should be a good one!  One of my personal favorites from this year!

Blazing Hot Marlene

2007 Chestnut Filly

Marlene was born on March 25th, 2007. This filly is a full sister to Betty (as seen in our Foals of 2006 page), as well as Stewart (in our Foals of 2005 page). Marlene is now the third foal out of Sweet Leaguer Chip; her 2 year old full sibling to this filly by BLAZING HOT was sold to an amateur in Canada as a stallion-prospect and is currently in training. This foal looks to be just as "Hot".   Check out her great head and neck - as well as short back! She is truly a stunning prospect!

"Conrad"

Embraceable Dream was 4th at the World show in Amateur AND Open Western Pleasure (two separate years); she was also Reserve High Point in the nation in Amateur Western Pleasure and has over 416 AQHA points, most in Open and Amateur Pleasure.

"Gracie"

2007 Sorrel Filly

     Gracie was born three weeks later than expected, but well worth the wait!!   She has the standard shoulder, topline and hocks that POTENTIAL ASSET stamps on his babies.  Grace is by Potential Asset, who is currently a top contender for the AQHA Year-End All-Around award this year as a senior horse.  Her dam is a point earner in Jr. Western Pleasure as well as HUS and HSE.  This is her first foal.  We expect this leggy filly to do great things in the future.

Top photos above taken at 6 months old, other photos above at 4 months old.  Photos below at one week old.

"Bonnie"

2007 Sorrel Filly

This stunning filly was born at 9:30PM on April 18th, 2007.  Bonnie’s parents speak for themselves.  Her sire, Blazing Hot, needs no introduction. Bonnie's dam has produced World & Reserve World Champions, AQHA Championship winners and multiple point and futurity earners.  Every single one of her dams foals to hit the show pen has been a winner and point earner.  Do not overlook this top prospect.
