Horseshoe Springs Ranch has been a breeding farm
of American Quarter Horses for 45 years. Throughout
this time the farm has produced National Champions, Superior Pleasure
horses, Superior Pleasure Horse sires, many futurity winners and
AQHA point earners.
As a breeding farm, Horseshoe Springs Ranch traces
its roots back to the 1958 King Ranch bred mare, Pokey Pixy by Pokey
Light by Peppy's Pokey and finally to Peppy #212, a double bred
Old Sorrel Stallion. Within two generations on her dam's side, Pokey
Pixy traces back to Red Dog P-55.
Pokey Pixy, bred in 1965 to Coy's Bonanza, produced
the AQHA Champion mare, Pixy's Bonanza.

Pixy's Bonanza, in turn, when bred to Mister Tailwind
produced Pixy's Tailwind, who proved to be a multiple pleasure horse
sire. It is sons and daughters of Pixy's Tailwind who have been
crossed with outside blood lines that have produced the horses for
sale here at the farm.

The outside blood we've crossed with
the daughters of Pixy's Tailwind is that of A Double Jack,
by Double the Money and out of Pep Up Jackie by Two Eyed Jack.
Pep Up Jackie was an outstanding all-around performer and
an AQHA champion. Her qualities which she passed on to "Jack"
are congruent with the type of horse we strive to raise. |
