Levis has done a wonderful job in longeline in 2009. He will spend the winter growing up. He ended the show season very well. 6th in the nation in point standings as of August 21st, 2009 and 4th in point standings as of the July WBHA show. We have high hopes for this gorgeous young man and will keep all posted on his progress.
Levi joined our family in January of 2009. He was born March 27, 2008 in Post Falls, Idaho.
His Sire Dun Goin Steady is a 2003 AQHA / ABRA / IBHA Dun Stallion whom is a 2 TIME ABRA World Champion and NSBA World Champion Top 10! I have to send out a special Thank you to Gena Loper for her honesty and all her help with all the questions we had and the pictures and video we had her take. This has been such a wonderful experience!
Steve from Cowboy Express you did a wonderful job transporting him. We WILL remember and recommend you!
Levi’s Mama is by Leaguers Sandman whom has his ROM in Performance, is a world show qualifier, halter and performance point earner.
He is currently in training for Halter and longeline with world champion trainer Patricia Johnson of Iron Horse Ranch. We’ll keep photo’s coming as much as we can.
Here is Patti and I the day I got to finally meet Levi. He was such a quiet gentle fuzzy colt.

FIRST SHOW OF 2009 WAS A HUGE SUCCESS!!
WBHA at Jefferson Fairgrounds in Jefferson Wisconsin
ONE WIN one 2nd, one 4th and one 5th a 4 point weekend! 5-9 and 10 of 2009
We couldn’t be more happy. He WON under one judge and placed 4th under the other and there were 9 total yearlings in the class! Due to rainy wet weather the show was indoors and the digital cameras didn’t work decent. So we did not get any pictures worth posting. I am however trying to transfer some video onto you tube of his very first run. He has also shed out to a gorgeous buckskin. He lost the dun stripe but, has gained the most beautiful caramel color I have seen on a buckskin!
