YOR All Heart CJ

"CJ" was the 1996 Canadian Supreme Res. Champion Non-Pro Working Cowhorse ~ placing second to High Sign Nugget, the sire of "High Noon" ~ and she actually scored higher than him in the Fence Work (they were the only 2 Appaloosa in the class full of Quarter horses) ! This mare has the speed, willing attitude and HEART that set us down the path as Appaloosa breeders.

"CJ" also has her Open Show Certificate of Ability, with points in everything from Reining to Halter, Trail to Jumping and more.

She has given us outstanding horses sired by YOR High Noon: ... Mr Awesome Affaire - 2007 ApHC WORLD & National Champion Sr. Reining, NRHA $ Earner, stood in the USA Top Ten Jr Working Cowhorse in 2005 & 2006. .... Shanghai Noon - multiple ApHCC Champion .... and several retained fillies in our herd sired by High Noon. Read more about "CJ" on the Broodmare Page ...
