Here at Carvins Cove Stables, we are strong believers that the gait and disposition of a horse starts in the breeding barn, NOT in the training barn. Therefore, we offer for your consideration, a stallion who possesses strong genes in both of these departments. Spirit demonstrates a 100% natural 4 beat gait both at liberty in the pasture, and under saddle. He has also proven himself to throw this gait to each and every one of his offspring. In addition, each of his offspring has inherited his calm, loving, and willing disposition, and they are proving to be very easy to train and quick learners. We welcome anyone interested in breeding to Spirit, or anyone interested in purchasing one of his foals, to come visit, meet him in person, as well as several of his offspring so that you may see in person what you will get by breeding to him. We can't guarantee color, but we do guarantee a well gaited foal with a good disposition. To us, color is just an added bonus that we do frequently get!

Spirit is a true blue roan with NO white markings. He has NO Pride or Pusher breeding so he would make a wonderful cross with those heavily bred Pride mares! He stands a solid 15.3H. Spirit has a very natural running walk gait with a 2' over stride, barefoot with no gimmicks! People comment on his long stride every time we take him somewhere! He learns quickly and has a very people loving personality, is gentle and is very easy to handle. He passes these traits on to his offspring! He is a complete gentleman at breeding time and very easy on the mares.  He is a proven roan producer! His breeding traces back to Midnight Mack K, Midnight Sun, GLL's Carbon Copy, Ebony Masterpiece, Merry Go Boy, Go Boy's Royal Heir, Wilson's Allen, Sun's Delight D., Go Boy's Shadow, Rain's Blue Gene's, and Elijah's Blue Rain. Spirit is also homozygous for the black gene, meaning he will never produce a red foal regardless of the color of the mare! If you are looking for an exceptional stallion to breed to that has great conformation, the disposition of a gelding, a beautiful natural gait, and an added bonus of color, look no further!
