My
breeding program started with the outstanding Ramblin
Red, V-Factor-0, back in 1975. Red was my childhood dream
horse! I got to enjoy Red for 13 years before he died at age 24.
Never did this stallion give me any trouble. That is saying a lot
for a stallion with a young ignorant owner. But, you better
believe he taught me lot! He was a good teacher. Our foray was
trail riding and boy did we ever cover a lot of trails together! I
can't remember ever being jarred while riding Red. He was so
naturally soft gaited I could have ridden him 24 hours a day for
days on end. Red was a true dream come true. He was so easy to
handle and willing to please. He never failed to do what I asked
of him. Because he was everything I ever wanted in a horse and
because I'd like everyone to have the wonderful experience I was
fortunate in having with him, my efforts are to continue his
bloodlines combined with others that share the same
characteristics. (For a more detailed story on Ramblin
Red go to the Articles page.)
I
stood his son, Red's Flaxy
Shadow., V-Factor 0, until his death in 2006. That I know of,
Shadow is the only known son of Ramblin Red to ever stand stud
more than a couple years. Thru Red, Shadow has Kissee Fox on his
4th line and Old Ted on his 5th. If you remember Kissee Fox is the
grandsire of Golden Governor and great grand sire of Lady Anne.
Old Ted is the grand sire of Lady Anne as well as many of the
other greats in the ancestry of the Fox Trotting Breed. Bill
Dunn's old Skip stud is on Shadow's 6th line. The Bill Dunn stock
were Morgan/Thoroughbred crosses. (For more information on these
early, early bloodlines go to the article written by Mr. Claude
Hibbard that is on the 'Articles'
page. This article first appeared in the early rule books of the
MFTHBA and has since been reprinted several times including the
original Fox Trot Trackings book and again in the June 2002 issue
of The Journal.) Shadow's dam was Penny,
an American Saddlebred daughter of Wing
Commander and a Peavine mare.
Wing
Commander was:
World's
Grand Champion Five-Gaited Saddle Horse 1948 thru 1954;
Winner
of the $2500 Five-Gaited Stallion Division of the $10,000 Stake at
the Kentucky State Fair for 7 years;
Winner of the $2500
World's Championship Five-Gaited Stake at the Kentucky State Fair
1948 thru 1953;
Winner of the $2500 World's Championship
Five-Gaited Stake at the Chicago International 1947 thru
1954;
Winner of over 200 Championships;
Undefeated 1948 thru
1954;
And much, much more.

Ky's
Ramblin Bailey Barnes B, V-Factor 42, is a son of Kentucky
Heart Stopper B x Maden's Ramblin Dare- A-Lin.
Dare is the daughter of Ramblin Red x Fanny J. This makes Bailey a
grandson and great grandson of Ramblin Red along with all the good
blood from the Barnes/Songer/Roscoe breeding. Fanny J's sire is
from the old Wilson bloodlines and her dam is old Saddlebred.
Bailey could be the best horse to ever leave this farm. Bailey is
owned by Jimmy Dennis of Munfordville KY and can be reached at
dennisfa@scrtc.com or 270
531 5311. Bailey is available to a limited number of outside mares
for breeding. Check out Bailey's

Ramblin
Shooting Star S, V-Factor 12, is a son of Red's Flaxy Shadow &
Ky's Razzel Dazzel B.
Dazzel is a Songer & Barnes' bred mare that you can meet on
her personal page .
This means that Star has all the bloodlines of Ramblin Red, Wing
Commander, Mr Barnes' stock, Rollen Clarkson's bloodlines, and Mr
Songer's breeding as well as Mr Roscoe's. So you could say
that Star is the accumulative product of my breeding program.
And to know Star is to know that he is a worthy individual to
carry that honor. Star is really laid back and sweet of
character. So sweet that small children are drawn to him &
are know to ride him. He is located in Iowa with Luke & Sarah
Sturdevant. You can contact them for breeding information at
641-342-3417 or email them at foxtrot50210@iowatelecom.net
Be sure & check out Star's
personal page for more information on him.
Shadow's
Ramblin Charlie Dare, V-Factore 0, is a chestunt sorrel son of
Red's Flaxy Shadow & Kala's Lou M, an Old Charlie & Cothan
Dare mare. Charlie is natural at the fox trot, sweet
tempered with excellent conformation. He has the really old,
old names up close on his papers. Along with all the true
old bloodlines behind Shadow are those of Old Charley, Little
Charlie, Cothan Dare, Black Diamond S & Black Bridget from
behind his aged dam. I am really excited about Charlie &
what he has to offer for the future of our fox trot horses!
Check out his personal page for more info on Charlie. You
can contact me anytime.
 Charley's
Jurne Shadow's Image, V-Factor 0, is the older full brother to
my 'Charley'. Both my 'Charlie' & Jurne are named after
Old Charley & Little Charlie that appear in their ancestery.
Little Charley's Duke was owened, loved, & cherished by Mr
Herb Roscoe of southern Ohio. Mr Roxcoe was a great horseman
known far & wide for his knowledge of horses. Now back to the
horses. Where my 'Charley' has the appearance of the
'Charley' bloodlines, Jurne has Shadow's build. He just
didn't get the blonde mane & tail. Jurne is a great
horse & a joy to handle. Don't miss the chance to breed to him
& get a natural foxtrot gaited foal. For more info on
Jurne go to his personal
page.
 Buckeye
Gold Exchange is a V-21.Referred to affectionately as 'Woody',
he is a golden palomino sired by Songer's
Ambraw Hank from Sammy Jo's Golden Exchange G. We have
discussed Hank & his contributions extensively so we will
focus on Sammy
Jo. She is the off spring of Gold Exchange & a
double granddaughter of Ramblin Red (Kentucky's Dyna-Mite Dare was
out of Maden's Ramblin Dare-A-Lin by Red's Flaxy Shadow.)
Woody has been producing some outstanding foals. Proof of
his bloodlines & heritage. Go to Woody's personal page
