mares are either R.O.M. earners or producers. Including one mare that has produced 3 World
Champions and the 1998 World Champion Games horse (Scooten Dustem). Also the current World Record
Holder at 3 1/2 furlongs. (Nuthen Dustem)
A lot of our colts, after a successful career either in showing or racing, go on to homes where
they are used strictly for trail riding and enjoyment.
