Castle Rocks Pequeño Coléric
100% PURE Falabella yearling colt

Here's your chance to own one of the most delightful colts we have ever had, PLUS own a "first-generation-born-in-America" Falabella stallion, out of the exceptional imported Argentine mare, Falabella AF Granada. This is as "close as it gets" to the Argentina farm! This exceptional little man is from Paradise Chupa Chup, and his name tells it all -- Little Spitfire!

Keno's dam, Granada is a 100% pure IMPORTED Argentine Falabella black pinto mare, brought to the US by Angelica Falabella from the farm in Argentina for sale at the Falabella Expo in 1998, because of her great beauty and confirmation. Granada's lines are from some of the strongest "FOUNDATION" lines on the Julio Falabella farm, the Establecimientos Falabella, having Julio's Napoleon and Juancito in her pedigree. At 30.5" as a coming 22 year old, this old girl appears to be in foal for 2011! But, we're looking to retire this girl soon, so if you want a special "close-up-to-Argentina" line foal, this little boy may be one of the last for this "Grande Ole' Dam".

Keno's sire, Paradise Chupa Chup -- a 28.5" CHESTNUT PINTO Falabella stallion, is a grandson of Grosshill's El Rey, Castle Rock's senior Falabella stallion, an AMHA National Top Ten Senior Stallion.

This boy is staying small and will surely mature at 30" or under! He is perfect in every way, colorful, small muzzle, tippy ears, VERY friendly--follows you around "dog-style"--and has some of the most wonderful Falabella lines in the US. With such "tight" breeding from pure Argentine lines, he will mature to become a true "macho" Falabella stallion!

Castle Rocks Little Chupa Rey
100% PURE Falabella yearling colt

This boy has it all -- for the breeder who wants a flashy black and white pinto, with tail waving movement, and that perfect showing height with long legs! This boy is flashy, and has two lines going to our Grosshill's El Rey, Castle Rock's senior Falabella stallion, an AMHA National Top Ten Senior Stallion, and direct "in-utero" import from Argentina.

Little Chupa's sire, Paradise Chupa Chup -- a 28.5" CHESTNUT PINTO Falabella stallion, is also a grandson of Grosshill's El Rey, Castle Rock's senior Falabella stallion, an AMHA National Top Ten Senior Stallion. But this boy is taking after El Rey in height and flash! He is perfect in every way, colorful, VERY friendly and has wonderful imported Falabella lines close-up on the top-side, and well established US pure Falabella established breeding-farm lines on the bottom. EVERY LINE is traceable to the Argentina Falabella farm! With such "tight" breeding from pure Argentine lines, he will mature to become a true "macho" Falabella stallion!

Little Chupa's dam, "Princess" can also trace her lines back to EL REY, our senior Falabella stallion. Her dam, JAC's Nueva Commienzo, is out of SREENANS PRETZEL--a grandson of EL REY, and SREENANS CROOKED ARROW--a direct daughter of EL REY--and SREENANS KATARINA - out of LOLLIPOP, a direct IMPORT from the Falabella Farms in Argentina. Her sire, "Dray's Ondray" is a gorgeous solid black Falabella stallion, out of IMPORTED STALLION, FALABELLA MLF FLORIANO. Floriano is a Julio & Maria Luisa Falabella bred stallion from of MLF Compadron out of MLF Ultilisma, from the Argentina farm of Julio Falabella. Ondray's dam is TOYLAND SERENA, from of TOYLAND BUTTONEER, a black leopard appaloosa fewspot, out of two IMPORTED Falabellas: FLABY'S PICANTE, and TOYLAND LOLLAPALOOSA.

This is a wonderful, flashy young stallion, with the personality of a true "pocket pet". His presence can be felt, and his personality is sweet. He is expected to mature at 31-32" This will be a wonderful "macho" herd stallion in the future.

Solid Sorrel/Chestnut

Sire: Sreenans Silhouette
Dam: Little Bit

"SON RISE" is a 100% Argentine lines Falabella, a "solid" sorrel stallion having a gorgeous white SPOT on his rump! Son Rise brings the exceptional lines of Chianti -- one of the most well known Falabella stallions who is called the "grandfather of appaloosa miniatures!" Son Rise has shown us how he also can down-size his foals, as his 2011 colt is very tiny and will mature under 30" -- but is out of a 34" mare! This is Son Rise's second foal for Castle Rock, and we are looking forward to adding a "close-up" Chianti line to our program.

Son Rise is out of SREENANS SILHOUETTE, a beautiful blue roan appaloosa son of RANCHO CASA BELLAS CHIANTI II. CHIANTI II IS A DIRECT SON OF THE LEGENDARY, CHIANTI and is one of the most gorgeous black roan snowflake appaloosas alive today! So there is exceptional appaloosa breeding on the top side of this fine stallion. We will be testing these "spotted" genetics out in the upcoming seasons.

Son Rise's dam, LITTLE BIT, is a gorgeous black mare who has produced some of the finest babies for Sreenan's Falabella Farm. Little Bit is out of ARGENTINE IMPORT, TID BIT, imported to the US in 1983. Both beautiful mares are still at the Sreenan farm, and we are fortunate to have this stallion at Castle Rock.

Sire: Seahorse Gold Melody Bar (Son of Johnston's Gold Bar)
Dam: Teacher's Pet Eva Gabor (Daughter of Zsa Zsa, Gold Melody Boy daughter)

This spotted boy is an ultra refined and pretty headed colt, AND he's got a wonderful pedigree to go with his looks! Just look at the legs and the refinement in his head, the beautiful upheaded carriage and the total elegance this boy shows! With his multiple "up-close" crosses to GOLD MELODY BOY, one of the most recognizable and prepotent lines in Miniature horses today, carrying tremendous Arabian type, balance and elegance, he is everything we were looking for ++ Appaloosa spots.

He is sired by SEAHORSE GOLD MELODY BAR, a/k/a Junior. Junior is sired by JOHNSTON'S GOLD BAR, A DIRECT SON OF GOLD MELODY BOY, and out of AF PRINCESS MELODY, who is by WITTMAACKS MICKEY MOUSE, the only linebred son of GOLD MELODY BOY.

His dam, Eva is out of a mare named ZSA ZSA, a direct daughter of GOLD MELODY BOY!!

Castle Rock's Torrontes
Pure Falabella Foal

Torrontes is the most distinctive of all Argentine wines, because Argentina

AMHR / FMHA pending but guaranteed
Foaled: 02/24/2011 - 19.50" - should mature 32-34"
Grulla Appaloosa, with Ice Blue Eyes
Sire: Strong's Golden Chianti
Dam: Golden Future La Mesma Falabella

"Chianti" is a 100% pure, Argentine lines Falabella, who looks to be a beautiful Grulla appaloosa -- who should spot out by age 2 like his sibling(s). He is a direct son of STRONG'S GOLDEN CHIANTI, a beautiful palomino appaloosa pure Falabella.

This colt is beautiful! He has a winning presentation, upright stance, level topline, BIG ice-blue eyes, small tipped ears, long arching neck, well -- let's just say HE HAS IT ALL!!! He has inherited his dam's strong, fluid movement and awesome floating trot that Falabellas are known for. He should excel as a driving horse and be a true "MACHO" Falabella herd sire in the future.

"Chianti" is the grandson of Rancho Casa Bella's Chianti II, a gorgeous colorful snowflake appaloosa son of CHIANTI, known as the "GRANDFATHER OF MINIATURE APPALOOSAS" -- a most impressive Falabella stallion IMPORTED FROM ARGENTINA, and brought to the United States as part of the Regina Winery herd. His dam, "GOLDIE" has clear imported lines to the Argentine Falabella farms -- lines of exceptional quality.

Sold to Amy Davis of Norumbega Ranch in Maine, to be a future herd stallion! Congratulations. He should be an outstanding herd sire!

"FERRARI" is a 100% pure, Argentine lines Falabella, a tri-color Pintaloosa stallion--having both the pinto and leopard color patterns. He is a direct son of TOYLAND TAMBORO, an outstanding Snowcap or near-fewspot Appaloosa, sired by TOYLAND PORTENTOSO. Tamboro's grandsire is PORTENTO, a black-blanketed appaloosa, with large black spots, out of GROSSHILL'S COMOFIN, a 29" black leopard appaloosa, purchased for $50,000 by the Grosshill Farm, who traveled to Argentina to choose a stallion, and imported him from Argentina.

Ferrari is THE ONLY pure Falabella stallion produced by Tamboro as of this writing, and he has inherited his sire's "LOOK-AT-ME" attitude and his strong presence IN AN EXTREMELY SMALL PACKAGE -- only 30 1/4". It is extremely likely that as he continues to mature, he will be entered in the show ring to take his place with his Grandsire, GROSSHILL'S EL REY.

Ferrari's dam, PA PEPPERMINT PATTY, is a direct daughter of Hobby Hobie, who is from TOYLAND PICANTE SPLASHES, out of FLABY'S PICANTE, another imported Falabella stallion from Argentina. She is the daughter of TOYLAND DELILAH, a direct daughter of GROSSHILL'S EL REY, an AMHA National Top Ten Senior Stallion, who is the senior herd sire here at Castle Rock. El Rey is from the imported horses: LA RUINA and CINCHA, whose Argentine lineage is one of exceptional quality. They were imported to the US for THE LIMITED COLLECTION sale in 1988 from the Argentine farm of Maria Angelica Falabella, outside Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Sold to Jessi Jones of Windy Hill Farm in Alabama. Ferrari is headed for the show ring, and to become a future herd sire! Congratulations!

Toyland Celena of Castle Rock

AMHA A180594 / AMHR 283280T / FMHA 1161
Sorrel Near Leopard Appaloosa (May become a full Leopard)
Foaled: 04/01/2007

"CELENA" is a 100% Argentine lines Falabella, a sorrel, near-leopard appaloosa mare. Born a tiny 17.5" with a colorful blanket, she has not done much growing and is still a petite under 28" mare. She is the cause of Castle Rock searching and finding ICF Ferrari--as her future "groom!" Although born a beautiful little black blanketed filly, she has continued to color, and look how beautiful she is!

The most amazing thing about Celena is her extreme Arabian strut with her tail flying in the air. She lifts her head and her legs up high, as she does her floating trot! It's a most beautiful sight. This is a rare and highly valued trait, which we hope she will pass on to her future offspring. Celena was born with a perfect bite and has well balanced conformation. She has strong Appaloosa genes with both her sire and dam being Leopard Appaloosas. She should be a top color producer for us in the future.

She is a direct daughter of FALABELLA GUILLE, (pronounced Guy) is a 29.75" exceptional Black Leopard Appaloosa IMPORTED as a young stallion from Senor Falabella himself, at the Falabella farm in Argentina. Guille has superior qualities which he passes on to his offspring, first and foremost, being a perfect bite, perfect legs and show type conformation. He has beautiful movement with his head held high and a smooth, gliding trot like artistry in motion. Most important, Guille has 100% Argentine ancestry, with totally different ancestors from most other Falabella in the USA.

Celena's dam is Toyland Cee Cee, a 30.00" Sorrel Few Spot Appaloosa, who is small and correct and a wonderful color producer, obviously. We are looking forward to great things with this beautiful, little Falabella mare. And we thank her for bringing Ferrari to Castle Rock!! If she had grown, we'd never have looked for this outstanding small stallion!

Traded to Porterfield Farms for our future herd stallion -- VOLTIMORE!! A 100% appaloosa color producer, and show quality all the way!

"LOLA" is a 100% pure, Argentine lines Falabella, a black Pintaloosa filly--having both the pinto and leopard color patterns. She is a direct daughter of TOYLAND TAMBORO, an outstanding Snowcap or near-fewspot Appaloosa, sired by TOYLAND PORTENTOSO. Tamboro's grandsire is PORTENTO, a black-blanketed appaloosa, with large black spots, out of GROSSHILL'S COMOFIN, a 29" black leopard appaloosa, purchased for $50,000 by the Grosshill Farm, who traveled to Argentina to choose a stallion, and imported him from Argentina. LOLA has the "LOOK AT ME!!" presence, and we expect her to take her place beside her exceptional grandsire, El Rey, in the winning show ring!

Lola's dam is a direct daughter of GROSSHILL'S EL REY, an AMHA National Top Ten Senior Stallion, and senior herd sire here at Castle Rock. EL REY (in utero), LA RUINA and CINCHA, whose Argentine lineage is one of exceptional quality were imported to the US for THE LIMITED COLLECTION sale in 1988 from the Argentine farm. Lola's unique "black head" coloring can be traced to her imported granddam, CINCHA. This pretty trait has now passed through 4 generations, and with white snips and strips creates a most beautiful face, with large, perfectly placed eyes and well-defined jaw reminiscent of her Great-grandsire, LA RUINA, a true "MACHO" herd sire.

Sold to Porterfield Farms -- I'm very sorry to be losing this girl, but difficult times warrant hard choices. I know she'll be well loved in her new home. Here's hoping we can re-create a new Lola in 2012~!

"Classy" is the daughter of Buckeroo's Top Cat, son of the legendary BOONES LITTLE BUCKEROO, going back to GOLD MELODY BOY on the top AND bottom sides. There are not many stallions that are sired by, and sire, National Grand Champions, but Top Cat is an accomplished show horse in his own right, with great presence and refined conformation, that he passes on to his get.

Classy is a beautiful young mare, totally upright and having the leggy look that is so sought after in the show ring. She has a huge eye, balanced trim barrel, and refined conformation from the Buckeroo and Gold Melody Boy lines. And a BONUS - she has SPOTS !!! A "Little Kings Farm" "Buckaloosa!"

This is Boone's Little Buckeroo and Gold Melody Boy at its best for an Appaloosa breeder-having all the extra appaloosa characteristics a breeder wants to see besides just spots: striped hooves, mottled pink and black skin around her eyes, nose, mouth, genitals and inside her ears, with visible sclera. We are looking for some very special offspring from this girl, bred to our incredible appaloosa stallions!

Sold to Appy Acres Farm here in Florida. Hope to see her back in the show ring winning again!

Cremello
Sire: Little Americas X Bay
Dam: Horse Pen Creeks Julees Angel Doll

"Puffer" is one of the most beautiful cremello stallions we have found. He is not a little, chunky, short-legged horse, but an elegant, tiny horse with style, bringing together some of the most wonderful lines in miniature horse history. When inquiring about Puffer's sire, LITTLE AMERICA'S X BAY, his breeder said this about him: "When one is in the business of breeding and selling miniature horses and has a herd of over 200, many times the best are sold. I would say that was the case. We considered X Bay's dam, Melodee, to be our best mare and the foundation of our tiny breeding program." LITTLE AMERICA'S E BAY, the sire of Young's Little Cupid, a National Grand Champion Roadster horse, a 6-time National Champion and 5-time Reserve National Champion Roadster and Pleasure driving horse, is a direct son of XENON LIGHT VAN'T HUTTENEST, a Reserve National Champion Junior multi-color stallion, and multiple Grand Champion in Halter.

Puffer also has direct lines to Double O Seven and A Half Moto, a National Grand Champion Senior Stallion, and Double O Seven Moto, as well as the well known lines of Dell Teras and Komokos on the top and bottom. Puffer traces back to the foundation stallions and mares that have become famous for their contributions to the breed.

"Feather" is a most beautiful palomino Few Spot Leopard Appaloosa.

Famous in his own right as a NATIONAL CHAMPION and a SIRE OF NATIONAL CHAMPIONS, Full House is one of the King's few sons that produce colors other than gray. He stamps his foals with that incredible Arabian head, big eyes and attitude that wins in the show ring!

Dam: Sulphuras High Fashion - Grey appaloosa mare foaled 4-22-94 "Fashion" is another one of those mares that is a goldmine!!! She was only available due to the Sulphura?s dispersal and was kept until the very end. She stamps her foals with a most beautiful head, and has had 7 foals--all appaloosa! They are most beautiful. (Click her pedigree and offspring button on the mare page, to see some of these beauties.) We are looking for spots this year, too!

This little girl is just a "Whisper" of a foal. She is a beautiful representation of the quality and distinction of the Egyptian King line. We think her grandfather would be pleased. She is so delicate, leggy and up-headed, and just a perfect little model of a filly. She has that gorgeous Arabian-type flea-bitten grey that turns white, like her parents, and is a delightful, friendly baby who is like a "China-doll". She's so refined, it looks like she might break!

SOLD! Congratulations to the Freeman family in Florida! It's so good to see obvious love coming from the eyes of children! Best of luck with them!

Sorrel Leopard Appaloosa
Sire: Mountain High White Cloud
Dam: Piney's Tar Baby

Look what we found!! A beautiful RED LEOPARD stallion--so our leopard stallion list is almost complete!!!

"Red" could not be any more perfect - being Drum Roll's older paternal half-brother, and bringing the same FIRE and SPIRIT to our stallion line-up--with that same tail-waving movement, and arched neck prancing that Drum so proudly displayed at the 2007 AMHR Nationals!

On the top side, Red's sire, Mountain High White Cloud, is a producer of Grand and National Grand Champions, and this boy also carries some wonderful Falabella lines. Then on the bottom, there is almost completely leopard appaloosa breeding. Red's dam, Piney's Tar Baby, a black roan appaloosa with lacing, has produced all appaloosa foals. Piney's Tar Baby comes out of such foundation stallions as Davis Commanche (chestnut leopard), out of Dell Teras Jim Dandy (black/blue roan Leopard) out of Dandy Jim, from her dam, Piney's Tootsie Roll, a black leopard mare.

This is one beautiful stallion since he's slimmed up and lost his teenage fat! No more pudgy boy, just a lean, gorgeous boy ready to be shown in color class like his baby brother Drum Roll.

Red gave us a most gorgeous sorrel few spot filly this year that we are keeping for our future breeding program. Hence, Red Sky is for sale. Don't let this wonderful stallion out of your sights! He is most colorful with a partial blue eye, and throws awesome babies!

We just continue to thank that wonderful Appaloosa Fairy. Look what she brought, now! "BOOTYLICIOUS!!"

THIS IS ONE, GORGEOUS Tri-registered FILLY! "Booty" is the foal of Southern Charms Ramblin Rose, a beautiful Ramblin Starbuck (by Rowdy) bred AMHA World Top 10 Mare. This retired show mare is taking after her dam, Creation Creeks Rogues Miss Callie, who has received an award for "Produce of Dam". We are hoping that Booty will continue the family tradition when taking her turn as a broodmare, AFTER her show career.

Booty has the most magnificent color and beautiful appaloosa patterning, beginning on her face, and covering her "booty." Then to top it all off, Booty's dam also goes back to GLENNS SOUTHERN ROUGE, an AMHA National Top Ten Stallion, and NFC'S HUSSELERS STAR, a National Grand Champion. Booty definitely has the family look!

Her sire, Mountain High White Cloud, is a producer of Grand and National Grand Champions, and this girl also carries some wonderful Falabella lines.

Watch for "Booty" in the AMHA/AMHR show rings in 2008. She should mature around 32".

Cinnamon's Gold Melody Boy lines come from Wittmaacks Mickey Mouse, Johnston's Silver, Boone's Little Apache, Roan Ranger, and Johnston's Starlight, all direct sons and daughters of GMB. We are looking forward to crossing this girl's lines with our exceptional Appaloosa stallions, to "fortify" the GMB type, balance and elegance in our appaloosa herd.

For 2008, Cinnamon is bred to Timberviews Simply Awesome, a 31.50" Black Leopard Appaloosa. "Awesome" is a full brother to our retired show mare, "Pokey" so we are expecting to see quality, with the balance and elegance GMB lines carry.

Castle Rocks Simply A Baroness

AMHR Filly
Foaled: 04/04/2008
Color: Black (will Roan) with a Star

HERE IS YOUR NEXT DRIVING HORSE!!! Simply A Baroness ("Nessie") with a slightly less than 7" canon at birth, should mature within the 32-34" range. She has a beautifully placed star, small muzzle, pretty ear set and beautiful doe eyes. Sired by "Baron" a stallion with a "Hall of Fame" pedigree, Nessie is already showing the strength of hip, strong chest and conformation of a driving horse and should be a wonderful brood mare as well.

Nessie is a beautiful black like her sire, who may roan like her dam. Nessie's dam is sired by a a 31" English Import and goes back to multiple National and Reserve National Champion Komokos FOUNDATION miniatures. This foal's sire, "Baron," is a young driving stallion with "the most beautiful" head. His lines go back to MUSTARDSEEDS LEGIONAIRES SEQUOYAH AND FLYING W FARMS LEGIONAIRE on the bottom side and Playmate's Black Jack Stout's Little Chippewa and Stout's Freckled Feather on the top side.

Sire: Kamelot's Black Baron - 33.75"

Dam: Hidden Hollow Baylee - 34.00"

"CeeCee" is a beautiful brown snowcap / fewspot mare, with some wonderful leopard appaloosas behind her. On the top side, her sire, 30.50" Mountain High White Cloud, is a producer of Grand and National Grand Champions. White Cloud is a Falabella Blend, so this girl also carries some wonderful Falabella lines. Mountain Highs White Cloud is sired by Flabys El Tigre, a small (28") black leopard Falabella stallion, and his dam is World of Miniatures Salt N. Pepper, another black leopard appaloosa. One generation back is Toyhorse Panther out of Toyhorse Domino-again, both black leopard appaloosas. It is a grand, spotted line. On the bottom, there is mainly Sulphuras breeding, her dam being a beautiful bay appaloosa.

CeeCee has the most beautiful tail flagging movement, that we are hopeful she will pass on to her foals. She is exposed to Sweetwater's Texas Spotty for a Spring 2009 foal, and we will anxiously await this foal. We are hopeful Spotty will again lend his conformation to the upcoming offspring, and CeeCee will strengthen the leopard/spotted lines, and help reduce the size of our beautiful appaloosa foals, making them ever more competitive in the show ring.

SOLD as an agent for JBR Ranch. Congratulations Christina Pheils of Mini Miracles Farm.

She, herself, is a beautiful silver bay REVERSE appaloosa mare, having both white spots AND dark chocolate spots on her blanket.

Belle has a great stride, as her sire is a versatile and great driving horse, and her dam has produced two Reserve National Champion futurity driving horses, and a National Top Ten Halter filly.

Belle is being exposed to our Sorrel Leopard stallion, Wellsprings Red Sky at Night, for a 2009 foal. We can hardly wait to see EVEN MORE SPOTS!!

Castle Rock is only selling Belle as we are changing our "color focus" on our Appaloosas, and Belle will not fit our revised breeding plan. She is a wonderfully, friendly mare, foals well on her own, and is a good mother. She will do well as a brood mare, or trained for driving-as driving is in her blood!!

LEASED! Thank you Kim at Giddy Up Mini Acres, Florida. Can't wait to see her upcoming foal. Can't wait to see her in harness!
