Affectionately called Turbolina, this
little mare is so sweet and tolerant of everybody! She lets little kids
handle her and her baby, and anyone can drive her anywhere.
My silly youngest daughter hooked her up to a
wheelbarrow this week. She won't be doing this anymore, but I
caught it on video.

see her pulling a wheelbarrow. She even pulls
her on her scooter. The picture to the left was taken at the
Memorial Day parade in Surprise in 2009. |

Turbolina came to live with us in December of 2005. One
morning, we got an email from a family in our church saying they
had three Minis that they would like to give away. We emailed
them back right away and said that we would take one of them and
we knew another family who wanted the other two. Well, as you
have probably guessed, Turbolina was that one.

We fell in love with Turbo, and she is
what started our mini rampage! We love all our minis. My youngest
daughter, who was only 8 years old at the time, started breaking
her to cart. The pictures above are from her first drive. Note,
how the cart shafts are pointed downwards....that is a no, no,
but we have learned a bit more since back then. Jess is now
approaching 13 years old.

Turbolina's beautiful color is called a "Silver Bay."
When I first saw her, I thought she was a chestnut or a sorrel,
with a flaxen mane and tail. But look closer...she has dark legs
and dark tips on her ears. (If you scroll up to the top picture
on this page, you will see these distinctions more clearly.) The
light mane and tail come from the silver gene, along with her
adorable light colored eyelashes. The big difference is if she
was a chestnut, she would be a red base, but being a silver
base, she is a black base. Turbo also has a pinto spot and this
was bred into her 2009 baby. Click
here to meet her. |
This little girl is a wonderful driving
horse. She has incredible action and is a very happy driver. She can out
trot our stallion!!!

He was a Buckskin colt. By breeding Turbo (Silver Bay) to a Buckskin

| The horse to the right is
Turbolina's half brother who placed very well at World's as a
youth horse. There are many past videos of Turbo on our website.
Here is just a sampling. Turbo goes with us almost everytime we
drive unless there is a baby by her side. Her 09 filly is
weaning currently.

This foundation stallion is also the Grandpa
of our mare that we call
"Magic" and in
"Morning."
He
was the 51st horse registered with the AMHA and
sired 22 foals. He appears in the pedigree of a
great many champions. He was registered with
AMHR as Freemans Red Man. He is said to be the
son of Bramamans Peppermint and out of a mare
named Limpy. He is also said to be a full
brother to Ramundo and
Stout's Mister Pride. You will see Ramundo in
this mare's top side.
Ayers Mini Man has
sired some of the best conformationally correct.
When the International Miniature Horse Registry
transferred over to the AMHA, he was part of
their merger. He has only 22 foals registered to
him, the last being in 1984.

Champion Senior mare 28" and under with her name

originally in the International Miniature
Horse Registry and was transferred over to the
AMHA after their merger.
His blood runs
