Sport-type
Morgans with Family-style dispositions
The
goal of Vintage Farm is to produce Morgan horses with dispositions suitable
for youth and amateur handlers coupled with the athletic ability and soundness
of mind to be competitive in open dressage and carriage competition.
Emphasis is placed on the broodmares, stressing sensibility, trainability, and athleticism. One of my priorities is to have all the mares trained to ride and to start them under saddle myself. Being a somewhat overweight, middle-aged amateur, this represents a significant test of disposition. So far, this goal has been accomplished and three of the mares are also broke to drive. I believe that such training helps establish the trainability of the mares and assists me in evaluating their athletic ability. To the extent possible, the mares will also be tested in competition. Again, I am the rider, driver and groom.
The breeding program consists primarily of Western Working Family and Government bloodlines, with a smattering of Lippitt, old Vermont, and Brunk. Three of the mares are full sisters from Dean Mt. Morgans with Government and old Vermont breeding. This lends consistency to the program. Currently, the mares are being crossed on stallions of WWF lines.
  The horses and I love to have visitors. If a personal visit cannot be arranged, contact me for a video tour. or contact: Nora
