We are breeders of premium quality Appaloosa Sport Horses and Friesian Sport Horses with appaloosa patterning.

These horses are bred outside the limitations of the ApHC. Our bloodlines use a Warmblood influence, to produce a horse better suited to sport horse disciplines. It is our goal is to create a true Appaloosa Sport Horse.

Darkest Design  

2005 COLT June 7, 2005 Smokey Black, small white star. This colt appears to have Appaloosa characteristics, so he probably will get some mottling or small spots. He has been DNA tested and is homozygous black and carries one cream gene. This means if bred to bay mares there is a 50% chance of him passing on his cream gene and producing buckskins. His sire is the APPROVED Friesian stallion Mystic Valley's Dante, who is 16.1 hands tall. This colt is very friendly. He should mature to over 16. hands. He has a lovely gold tone to his coat color. You are not looking at sun bleaching, this is the effect of the cream gene. He is handled daily.  A nicer head is hard to find. This boy has manners and is a very nice mover.  I  have now bred one mare to him and he has remained very easy to handle.

Sold Congratulations to Denice in Nebraska
