~ Iona Midnight Snow ~

2002 AMHA Reserve National Champion Amateur Country Pleasure Driving

This beautiful true black and white pinto Mare has quite a tale -- she's our Cinderella Story!  We purchased her in the late 1990s to be simply a pet and gave her the barn name of "Oreo."  We showed quarter horses at the time and thought she'd be a nice novelty to take on the circuit.  Well...were we surprised when we started driving her!

 

Turns out this mare was a dynamite package wrapped tight.  Not only did she boast a regal pedigree, being a Komokos Little King Supreme granddaughter herself, she was also destined to be a driving horse and gifted with exceptional movement.  Oreo has a heart the size of Texas and we relied on her to introduce us to the AMHA horse crowd.  It was almost as though she felt an obligation to ensure we would enjoy showing.  During the past 3 years, she has taken the Greenwoods into several winner's circles.   In 2002, she kept her promise by driving Lisa into the 2002 AMHA  National winner's circle! 

 

Oreo's 2002 accomplishments earned her the title of "Queen of Greenwood Acres"

Introducing Oreo's 2004 colt"Noah" by Fishers Master Mickey

This jet black powerhouse of a colt is showing us that even though he is only days old, he has the trot that is needed for a National caliber driving horse...BIG, with a lot of extension and drive.  Noah also has a refined tiny Arabian head with a huge dark eye that completes his powerhouse package!!  Noah's Dam, is our beloved Iona Midnight Snow, a Komokos Little King Supreme Granddaughter and a AMHA Reserve National Champion Driving horse and multiple AMHA Grand Champion and Honor Roll winner, she is simply breathtaking in harness.  His sire is Fishers Master Mickey, an AMHA National producing stallion, one of  which is Little Kings Master Buck who took the driving world by storm winning many National titles in Single Pleasure Driving  We feel confident that Noah will continue his Mother's winning Legacy. 

NEWS FLASH...OREO is ultrasound in foal to our AMHA 2004 World Champion, Reserve National Champion Single Pleasure Driving stallion Flights of Fancys Great Expectations...for an early spring baby!  This should be a very exciting cross and a very royal baby indeed  with both parents being                     World and National Champions
