Stallions

HMH Phantom Spirit
Pedigree
HMH Phantom Spirit became Ghostwind Appaloosa’s
first stallion selection after much careful and critical research.
He was selected from Irene Smith’s wonderful foundation
appaloosa program where he was the junior stallion for the High
Mountain Hollow farm breeding program.
Phantom
is the product of intense leopard breeding with a high concentration
of black based color and refinement on a well-balanced substantial
body. His sire
Lacy’s Running
Wolf; Sundance 500,
CRHA-6006, APHC-565734 is a true tri-colored leopard with size and
superior conformation and a great head and substantial hip. His dam
HMH Snow Leopard also
brings her own power packed pedigree to this mix along with her own
intense leopard to leopard bloodlines and excellent conformation.
Phantom’s bloodlines have been concentrated in
the US Midwest, specifically in
Indiana
and Illinois.
It has had little dispersion over the years with pockets in TN,
FL, OR, WA, WV and of course Upstate NY.
Phantom’s progeny are now
showing and competing successfully from
West Virginia through the western United States
and soon in Canada.
“Phantom is a remarkable
stallion with all the characteristics desired in a top performance
stallion. His free flowing movement and natural rhythm combined with
his excellent temperament and work ethic make him a joy to work with.
I am looking forward to working with Phantom and his get this 2010
show season”

Phantom’s foals here at Ghostwind Appaloosas are
proof that he can consistently stamp his foals with the set type we
were looking for in a performance horse.
His appearance, stature,
demeanor, disposition, proven bloodlines and production record are
excellent indicators that you might just find your next performance
horse here at Ghostwind Appaloosas.
Please feel free to call us at anytime.

Apache Kid Galahad
Pedigree
Apache Kid Galahad was bred by the late Frank
Scripter as his replacement stallion for Apache Polar Star and/or
Solar Flair Eclat.
In
1995 Frank hand delivered Galahad to, and surprised Jerry and Lucy
Messer at their, “The American Leopard Horse Ranch” in
Washington
State.
Galahad has over 40 years of intense leopard to leopard
breeding in his pedigree which attests to his distinctive black based
leopard coat coloring his forebears passed down.
Galahads’ demeanor, disposition, athleticism,
maturity and bloodlines will give any breeder or owner of his progeny
an excellent opportunity to build or add to any program or participate
in any performance horse event or competition.
Kelly, Jerry’s son trained Galahad to shoot off of while he
hunted in the Washington State’s
mountains. According to Kelly, Galahads’ athleticism is further
demonstrated by his preference for the mountain’s cliff side to go
either up or down on.
Apache Kid Galahad arrived at Ghostwind
Appaloosas in the summer of 2009. We will be paring Galahad with a
number of foundation mares for the 2011 season. We have two Solar
Flair Eclat daughters, Lady Magnificent and Rockalena Not, both bred
by the late Frank Scripter and a number of grand daughters and great
grand daughters with the same bloodlines.
Ghostwind Appaloosas will strive to perpetuate
Frank’s and Jerry’s successful foundation appaloosa breeding program.
We are excited to have Galahad as a cornerstone for our
Ghostwind Appaloosa Ranch.
Galahad will be bred to foundation mares for the 2011 foaling
season.
A list of our
bred mares will follow later this breeding season.
