Why was
The Knights Reflection selected for
Spotz Farm Pinto breeding program? |
|
Spotz Farm
desired to breed better pintos and found a young SOLID colt that fit
the ticket. In the fall of 2005, we purchased a sweet young
colt, The Knight's Reflection. He was
very tall and refined with driving hocks, high headed and high
tailed. He had the most beautiful head, ears, classic
expression we had ever seen on an American Saddlebred. With
all these wonderful traits....we just could not resist! |

What are some of the major concerns in breeding Pintos? |
|
Breeding pintos is not always easy. We are restricted by DNA. For
to pass on the color gene, you MUST have a pinto parent.
Homozygous pintos have helped to create more opportunity for color,
but, not always QUALITY. If we are to have better PIECES to
our puzzle, sometime we have to look outside our Pinto gene
pool. QUALITY is a noble goal for all breeders and not a "given" in
the best of breeding programs. |

|
What are the hopes with adding
The
Knights Reflection to the Spotz Farm breeding program? |
|
It
is our hope to improve the QUALITY of the foals by creating tall,
stretchy, pretty, movers that will market as yearlings due to their
size and QUALITY. Spotz or no Spotz: Arabian, National Show
Horses, Saddlebreds and Friesian/Sporthorse types can benefit from
the "Look and Athleticism" of this young colt. Optimize your chances
for success and consider The Knights Reflection
for your breeding program. |
