Cupid is her nick name and she is a joy to have on our farm. We had like many others formed the opinion that most thoroughbreds were a high spirited very un predictable hot blooded horse, Comet and Cupid have proved that theory wrong, we have added Cupid to our breeding program for the Appaloosa Sport Horse and found them both to be the exact opposite. Cupid is as docile and laid back as any mare we have on our farm, she is calm, level headed very very patient and loves people. She has a very smooth flowing gait that makes you want to ride her across a prairie for days, she is broke to ride and is very calm under saddle.  She is a roan mare that will be bred to Fire Eagle for a 2007 foal. She was bred by Dresdon Farms of VIRGINA. Her pedigree is full of great all time horses such as Kings Grant. 

We will always give our first priority in horses to our Gaited Appaloosas yet when a horse of this quality, temperament and gait comes along we call it a blessing and all blessings we believe come from God whom we give thanks daily.
