SHANGHAI (Forevermore x CT Ginger Lee) X KEW SOVEREIGN (Waseeka's Moonshot x UVM Treasure) Filly foaled May 8, 2005. This stunning young mare is even more beautiful than her full brother, WINDEN REIGN. Upheaded, very animated and her dam's exquisite head, she has everything I ever asked for and is big to boot. With the bottom line on this filly, a future in breeding would not be out of the question. Bali has a BIG motor and knows how to use it. In my opinion, she is one of the very best fillies I have ever bred and I was thrilled when my good friend, Leslie Arnould of Akira Morgans in Lebanon, Oregon, chose Bali Hai as a show and breeding prospect. I anxiously await their debut together! 
UP-HYRE TE-N-TE (Dee Cee Mr. Trophy x Saddleback Swingtime) X CT GINGER LEE (Fleetwing's Major x Flintalee) Filly foaled July 2, 2005. UP-HYRE TE-N-TE is a full brother to the dam of World Champion Minion Masquerade, and also the sire of Up-Hyre Jewel of the Nile (dam of World Champions Tolstoy and Foolish Games). This stunning young mare is a full sibling to Luminaria, Another Story and The Gift. A proven cross that produces ambition, ability and that ethereal beauty that is found in the classic Morgan look. She is a dark chestnut with a light mane and tail. She is perhaps the best foal from this cross produced to date, and I was pleased to sell her to a longtime Morgan owner and admirer, Mr. Ken Middleton of Oak Ridge, Missouri, who has owned Morgans for several decades. "Fiona" is Ken's first Morgan purchase in over 20 years!
2006 Jubilee Regional Weanling Filly Winner
2006 Jubilee Futurity Weanling Filly Reserve Champion
Mare foaled March 27, 2006. "Maia" is the first foal out of Bea, our last daughter of the wonderful Nemours Sunny Beam (Beamington x Trophy's Karat, by Trophy). We knew she was special the moment she arrived, and she continued to bloom all year. Jay Kleiber first saw a photograph of her in August and immediately responded "WHO'S THAT?", which began the steps that culminated in Jay and his partner, Julie Ouska of Ridgewood Farm in Elizabeth, Colorado finally purchasing Maia just before her show ring debut. She is now enjoying her adolescence at Ridgewood as they anxiously await her performance career. Click on Maia's photo to see her photo gallery.

In line for replacing her dam as a grand producer, LUMINARIA made her debut in 2000 and continued to accumulate wins until her four year old year, when she was turned out due to time commitments to other horses. Jeff and Luan-i Jackson of Hidden Dragon Morgans in Choctaw, Oklahoma discovered Lulu on our website and purchased her to become a foundation for Morgans in Luan-i's home country of Taiwan, where her family will be building an equine facility in the near future. Meanwhile, Jeff and Luan-i are busy planning for Lulu's first foal, who will hopefully arrive in 2008!

SHANGHAI (Forevermore x CT Ginger Lee) X ARDUN'S ELVIRA (Figure's Falcon x Camille Centaurus) Click on Falada's name to see an extended pedigree.
Mare foaled July 12, 2006. This filly is very special and knows it. She is ALL MORGAN, head to tail, with type that is undeniable. Lots of go-forward, very upheaded and prances everywhere she goes. She can outmove the boys, always is ready to put on a horse show. She is also very inquisitive and affectionate. It would be hard to find another with her incredible, classic and old government breeding. Her dam, Elvira, is extremely linebred to Mansfield, she is nearly 100% government with a motor that never quits and very natural, park-type motion. Her filly is very elegant, carries herself like a princess and looks like the type of filly to build a serious breeding program upon. We were thrilled that "Millie" attracted the attention of recent graduate student Alison D. Egan of Norman, Oklahoma and has now become Alison's very first Morgan. Alison grew up under the watchful eye of the Irvine Family of Morningside Farm in Wisconsin, so she is no newcomer to Morgans. We expect Alison and Millie to have a long and successful show career with perhaps plans for breeding in the future. Click on Millie's photo above to see her photo gallery. SHANGHAI (Forevermore x CT Ginger Lee) X ESSEX ARIA (Black River Leo x Essex Reata Darling)* Click on Wing's name to see an extended pedigree. Gelding foaled April 27, 2005. "Wings" is the first foal out of Aria, a lovely mare who was a Regional Grand Champion in hand and has three crosses to the great producing mare, Polly Forrest. His intelligence and trainability impressed Jeanine Key of Troy, MO, who chose him to be her first horse to train "from scratch". He has been winning fans since he moved to his new home in the summer of 2006.
This lovely young mare was my last foal by the great sire, Forevermore. She is bred in the purple and has spent the last three years running and playing and growing up in the pasture. In the spring of 2005, Dr. Kimberly Caruso DVM of Rancho Santa Fe, California spotted Happy on our website and decided she needed to move to the West Coast! Happy and Kim met in person in Oklahoma City that fall. She is currently under lease to Ann Taylor at Woodland Stallion Station for the 2007 breeding season.
Foaled May 8th, 2004, this beautiful and extremely talented brown colt with two hind socks captured the attention of Sandy Koehler of Santa Rosa, California the moment he arrived. Sandy was able to purchase him before weaning and he will be making his way westward sometime this spring. She is planning to show him in the futurities and perhaps use him for breeding in the future. "Zen" succombed to a tragic and fatal aneurism in early May 2005.

"Rowdy" was the fourth of this cross and was actually bred by Renee Page, as Renee leased Ginger every other year. After Seemore had been sold to the Quilhots, Tami needed a replacement show horse and Rowdy was just the ticket. So he was bought back from Renee. Tami worked Rowdy at home all year and with the help of trainer friend John Hufferd, he became the Jubilee Regional Junior Champion Gelding and was reserve in the Futurity Two Year Old In Hand class. This team went to the Grand National that fall and cleaned up in hand, and John's brother Kurt Hufferd convinced his client Cheryl Peterson to purchase Rowdy as a prospect later that fall. It wasn't until 1998 that Rowdy really began to come into his own both under saddle and in harness, and Kurt enjoyed a winning season with him ending with a Reserve World Champion title. Purchased by Judy Kjellander of Springfield, Illinois in 1999, Noteworthy captured the Gentlemens Pleasure Driving with Judy's son Rob Kjellander and the Ladies Pleasure Driving with Judy at the 1999 Dixie Cup Classic. They also claimed the Pleasure Driving Championship at the Midwest Charity, and Rowdy was Grand Champion Gelding at the Jubilee Regional. Purchased in early 2001, Rowdy now makes his home in sunny California with Lexie Bastian, under the direction of trainer David Torrey of Figure Horse Training Stables. Lexie and Rowdy won all year in Classic Pleasure Driving and were crowned Reserve World Champions in Oklahoma City in October, 2001. In
2002, Lexy shared Rowdy with Terry Jones Brennan and this team cleaned
up in the Classic Division in both saddle and harness. After winning
the open saddle and harness qualifiers and the Classic Saddle Stake
at the Morgan Classic Royale, they went on to the Morgan Medallion
Regional and were the Ladies Classic Driving Stake winners and were
reserve in the Ladies Classic Saddle Stake. They culminated their
year in Oklahoma City with the title of World Champion Ladies Classic
Pleasure Driving, Grand National Champion Ladies Classic Pleasure
Driving Gelding and Grand National Champion Classic Pleasure Saddle
Stallions & Geldings under 15.1h. "Amelie" was sold as a coming two year old to Cindy Mugnier, who sold her a few months later to the group that became the Accel Partnership. After having three very nice foals by the ill fated FCF Rythmn Nation, she was sold to Brad and Dawn Fire of Peeper Ranch in Lenexa, KS, who also happened to buy a yearling colt by him and out of Amelie a year earlier. Although this nice colt began a promising career as Grand Champion Stallion at the Circle J Regional as a two year old, he has unfortunately been tangled up in the mess that cost over 50 said-to-be Morgans their papers. The Fires have since bred this wonderful producer to the World Champion sire Salem Command (Noble Command x Ru-Lee Mystique), and she produced a stunning black 2003 colt named MIRAMAX (see below). This youngster has already been winning in hand and harness and was the 2005 World Champion Junior Gelding. In 2004, Amelie produced an outstanding colt by Liberation First Star. He will be sure to turn heads in the future. Her 2005 offspring is a very nice colt by MEM Turn Up The Heat. This wonderful producing mare is currently available for purchase. Contact Phil Fountain at Peeper Ranch for more information.

"Flame" was bred by Renee Page, but is out of my good producing mare, CT Ginger Lee (foaled on one of Renee's years to lease her). After a few months in training with John Hufferd of Triumph Stables, Flame returned home. Tami took him home, gelded him, started him under saddle and then sold him to first-time Morgan owners, Scot & Carol Tolman of Shooting Star Farms, Spofford, NH for their daughter Michaela. The new duo has been getting along famously and has been instrumental in causing the "potato chip syndrome" to take full control of poor Scot, who now owns three more Morgans and can't seem to stay away from morganshowcase.com. Michaela has been showing "Rico" in the competitive Jr. Exhibitor Hunter Pleasure division in New England and getting rave reviews. Talent Show was sold in February 2001 to Adrienne King of Connecticut and has been a winner in hand, classic saddle and even hunter pleasure. The first Morgan for Adrienne, "Chip" has been a fun mount for Adrienne. Here are a few of their accomplishments:
