Tuesday
FOR SALE
2000 15.2 hand QH/Percheron Gelding
Tuesday is a dead solid, useful horse. He trail rides alone or in company, walks, trots, canters in the arena or out
with correct leads, jumps up to 2'9" and is working on his lead changes. Been shown as a hunter. He goes english or western,
in a snaffle. Good saddle horse for ponying or working other horses off him. He's a chameleon - he'll be what you need him to be.
True all-around horse. Ranch on him one day and show him the next. Great feet and absolutely sound. Ties, self-loads, shoes/trims,
no vices or issues. Excellent ground manners. He is a kind, sweet, personable horse. SOLID!!!! Lives in a mixed herd fine.
See him in South Carolina this winter or on the road with Kathleen in the spring.
FREDERICK
FOR SALE
2005 15.3 hand AQHA Thoroughbred/Quarter Horse gelding
by Ima Soul Mate out of Stunning Idea
Frederick is Daisy's full brother, raised by the same breeder. He was started by Kathleen during the winter of 2008/2009 and
has about 30 rides on him at this point. He is green broke and therefore not for a beginner. He is sound, sweet, smart
and personable. He is nicely put together with big, firm feet and a lovely topline. He does have some superficial
scarring on a hind leg from a wire cut but it is a minor blemish and does not affect his soundness. He will
make up into a nice trail horse, all around horse, or english/western show horse. His sire was an AQHA Reserve
World Champion Jumper and his full sister jumps, so he may jump as well. He is located in Camden,
South Carolina. $3500. e-mail Kathleen

Daisy joined the team in 2007 as an unstarted three-year-old. Daisy works summers as a clinic horse with Kathleen and spends
her winters fox hunting and showing in the hunter divisions. Daisy has been confirmed by AQHA geneticists to be a brindle horse,

by Spooks Tru Legacy out of Ruby
This guy is Ruby's first baby. He is going to be huge, as his daddy is 16.1 and his mom is 16.3. He should make up to be a great
