Rexs Breeze
2003 APHA dun tobiano gelding
Sire: A Breeze of Class
Dam: Sonnys Dubie (Sonny Dee Bar, Poco Bueno, Cutter Bill)
Heavy boned, very stout gelding. Stands around 15 hands. Been used on trails, as well as used to check
cattle several times when the mud was too deep for a 4 wheeler last spring. Quiet and gentle, but recommend
intermediate rider simply because he hasn't been ridden a lot.
$1750 - offer
"Bandit"
2001 black tobiano gelding
Big stout gelding. He stands a good 15.1 or better and is a very easy keeper. We sold him about two years
ago to a family just getting into owning horses. They have been riding Bandit out on trails, and though their woods,
but he's really the type of horse that needs to be ridden more than once every few weeks. You will love this geldings
friendly personality and he is stunning to look at. However, I would not recommend him to a novice horse person because
he is a strong, powerful horse that has not been ridden much for the past 2 years....and will need some consistant
riding before he's ready to be a kid's horse again.
Email me for the owners phone number and you can talk to them directly.
$2000
Sheza Smart Commander
2006 APHA bay mare
This mare is a quiet and gentle riding horse. She responds well in the arena...nice walk, trot, collected canter.
Picks up leads both directions. She will make a great 4-H project since she is easy to get along with and rarely spooks
- even when deer and turkey appear unexpectedly on the trail. She rides great in a group as she gets along with about
any other horse, but she also has been taken out by herself many times. No fuss or fight when leaving her buddies
in the barn or pasture. She's just a nice, quiet riding horse with a lot of potential. Since she's only a 3 year
old, there's no doubt she will only get better and better as she matures. She definitely has the potential to be a kids
horse. NOT a kids horse right now, since she is NOT a dead head. She is agreeable and responsive to your requests,
but would need age and miles to be considered safe for a small child to ride by themselves out on the trail.
She stands a stout 14.3 and is short coupled enough to carry a heavy rider.
Her bloodlines include many AQHA and APHA greats, including (on her papers) Smart Little Lena, Poco Bueno, Fleet Commander,
Liquid Assets.......
August, 2009. Currently being ridden a couple times a week in the arena and on trails.
100% sound and nice to be around.
$1500.
**UPDATE** 'Rain' has been on many trail rides over this summer (2009) and has proven to be a very
safe, reliable trail horse. Most recently taken on a several hour trail ride by a novice rider and the rider was very
impressed with her calm, quiet attitude the entire ride. But definitely not a dead head. She
gives and responds well to leg pressure. Great 'whoa' and backs up readily. Rain has more common sense than most
horse 10 years her senior. She will follow, lead, or travel alone. Exposed to traffic, dogs, wild turkey, deer,
etc. No problems. Crosses water and goes through mud. Also works great in the arena. Neck
reining training is just starting.
Diaman H Double Risk
Black tobiano GELDING
born May 21, 2006
Dam: Diaman H Ima RiskeyLeo - outstanding WP prospect with Ris Key Business/Norfleet/Tiger Leo bloodlines

Looking for a 'pocket pet'??? Here's an inquisitive little guy that will NOT leave you alone. His dam was/is
the same way. This guy's pedigree is fantastic - he's a double bred Ris Key baby. Take a close look at those
markings!! He's a great combination of conformation, disposition, markings, athletic ability, pedigree. Perfect
stallion material, or can have a truely remarkable gelding....
30 days ride, November, 2008. QUIET!!, gentle and easy to get along with.
30 more days in January, 2009.
Gelded in May.

finished reiner
($15,000)
2003 brown tobiano mare
Sire: Strait From Texas
Dam: Smokin Kiowa
ROM in open and amateur reining. Her dam was a NRHA nonpro futurity finaist of over $5000
and produced two congress winners of over $25,000
This filly has been all over the Black Hills and southern Missouri. Outstanding trail horse.
"Sonny"
2006 APHA bay tovero gelding.
Sweet gelding that has had 60 - 90 days of riding, mostly in the arena, but he has also been out on trails.
He stands 14.3 and is very stout. He's big enough to carry most riders. Friendly, easy to catch, nice to be around.
Son of Ris Key Business, out of a double bred Sonny Dee Bar mare.
He is registered....just don't have all his info in front of me right now- his owners will furnish his papers.
He was born, raised and trained here until around Easter, 2009. Sold him locally, but new owners have since decided
that they don't really need a horse.....
($1750 - OFFER).
Mr Shiney Pine AQHA
1999 bay gelding
$1950........reasonable offer
Diaman H Old BlueEyes APHA
2002 red dun overo gelding
$1250
package - $2750
Pine has been broke to ride since he was a 2 year old and was well broke at one time. He's had a lot of
arena work and a lot of trail riding done. Pine was on a number of trail rides last summer, and is currently
being ridden in our indoor arena. He's a nice boy. 100% sound. No bad habits or vices. Big bodied,
heavy boned and ready to do a good day's work. Stands around 15.2
January, 2009 - Old BlueEyes (Frankie) has just been broke to ride. We had the trainers put on 30
days ride and will continue training as soon as some of their time frees up. Just too many outside horses in for
training right now..... Frankie is VERY quiet and gentle. Don't let the low price fool you - he's a wonderful
horse - we are just looking to get a small percentage of our training and feed costs back for the time he's
been here. Beautiful gelding, but has had a blow to his face so its not quite as pretty as it once was.
100% sound. Needs intermediate rider - but only due to his short time under saddle. He's safe enough for about
any rider, including a child. But they probably won't get him to go the direction THEY want to go. With Frankie's
outstanding laid back personality, I'd guess they'd be safe enough on a trail ride following the other horses. Stands
over 15 hands. This gelding will find you in the pasture, and stand to be groomed all day, if you'd let him.
He just really likes people.....
Diaman H Zippa Zandra (839640)
2005 red dun (overo) filly
Dam: Zippa Skip Zena
Sire: A Breeze of Class
This keen headed, big bodied girl is the prettiest color of red dun and
will mature near her dam's height of 15/15.1 hands. She's a smooth and easy loper in the pasture - great athletic ability.
She does carry the overo gene, and a couple of her spots could well qualify her for regular papers in the future. As
a broodmare she carries a double advantage of being able to throw TWO kinds of 'color'. She'll produce overo foals AND
dun/red dun/grulla babies. Can't go wrong there. She's straight, stout and very correct. We already have one of
her full sisters in the broodmare band, or she'd be higher priced. Just take a look at DH Zippa Zondra (APHA broodmares
page) if you want to see how nicely this little girl should mature. She's turned
into one of our best broodmares. No doubt this girl could do the same for your herd.
I would be willing to include a 1/2 priced breeding to Ris Key Business for when she turns 3 or older.
You might want to note that we just sold a filly for $5000 that was the produce of the above mentioned FULL SISTER
crossed with Ris Key..... This little girl would sure pay for herself rather quickly that way, wouldn't she??
30 days ride, just finished November 8, turned back out to pasture for the winter. Mini-clips of last
ride available through email. Natural, low head set and easy going gaits.
Excellent WP prospect.
**UPDATE another 30 days ride started June, 2008
($1750)
June, 2009 SALE PENDING
UPDATE: Still for sale. Buyer backed out.
However.....at the buyers request, the mare was bred to our AQHA palomino

Diaman H Goldfingers
2001 AQHA palomino mare
Dam: Foggs Rascal
Sire: Roses Flashy Joe
This mare is coming along quickly. We put 2 weeks of groundwork on her in October (2002). Goldfingers
took both saddle and bridle in stride, and shows a willingness to work for you. November, 2002, we
put 30 days ride on her (trails). Massive hip and chest. Heavy, straight bones. Stands around
15 hands. Beautiful, beautiful head and ear. Small, old scar on coronet band but no other dings. 100% sound, no
bad habits. .
I really love this mare, as I loved her dam and sire. I wouldn't even consider selling her,
but I think, in fairness to her, she deserves a home that has fewer horses to care for. If you want this mare,
you have to have her teeth floated at least once a year or she will get thin. $68 worth of vet work for a fat horse
isn't a bad tradeoff......
February, 2009. Put another 30 days on her. Quiet and gentle to ride. Great for trails, but she's
been a broodmare long enough that she'll take a lot of work to ever be a showhorse.
($1500).
Diaman H Jessies Risk (839829)
2005 bay tobiano filly
Dam: Jessie Jill (AQHA)
Sire: Ris Key Business
Jessie is our last (2005) spotted filly from Ris Key left to sell. This filly looks
to mature in the 14.3 hand range. She really has great conformation and a captivating look about her.
With her bold personality, she should make an excellent show horse. She took the saddle really well this past fall (as
all the yearlings did......not really a 'bucker' in the bunch). She's becoming very quiet and friendly.
30 days arena riding (October), then spent the month of November going down the road and
on the trails. Tackled a 20 mile trail ride with all new horses on her first trip off the farm. NO PROBLEMS. Put
out to pasture for the winter in December.
**UPDATE** another 30 days on this filly started June, 2008. Very talented, cooperative young mare.
Someone could really make something out of this one!!
($3500 - terms to show home)
May, 2009. Bred to This Cat Flys
Diaman H LeoSans Risk (840430)
2005 sorrel bs filly
Dam: Peg Shannon
Sire: Ris Key Business
This is a sweet daughter of Ris Key. Her multi colored mane and tail (don't know what color to call
it) makes her stand out in the crowd. She's very quiet and friendly, easy to be around - even in the middle of the pasture.
Her dam is a 15.1 granddaughter of Brujo out of a gdtr of Leo San. It will be interesting watching this one grow up.
I know she has great conformation and personality, but other than that, it's a 'wait and see' on her. Definitely will
make a great all around and/or 4-H project......might make a rope horse. With her personality adn her pedigree,
there's little doubt she'll be an excellent broodmare prospect in addition to her duties under saddle
**UPDATE** June, 2008 started her first 30 days. Wow. What a quiet, gentle sweetheart she is!!
($1950 - and will include 30 days ride)
**8/1/2009** SOLD
Diaman H Tardy Joe
2004 palomino stud
Dam: Toll Free Tardy
Sire: Roses Flashy Joe
full brother has PBHA points (halter)
keeping this one as a stud prospect - for now
This young stallion is one of our best hopes to replace 'Old Joe'. He has a similar quiet disposition and truely
outstanding conformation with about the heaviest bone you'll ever find.....a tribute to his foundation breeding - top and
bottom side of his pedigree. He has a medium golden color when he first sheds in the spring, and stands a good 15/15.1
as a two year old. (December, 2007......measured at15.2, no shoes, and 1300 pounds - in pasture condition) This guy
has a gorgeous head and ear with super straight legs, short heavy cannon bones, large joints, and huge
hip/chest. 30 day ride last fall (2006) and another 60 days late 2007. Back in the pasture beginning of 2008.
($4500)
**SALE PENDING** 10/2/2009
Diaman H A Dun Risk
2003 dun breeding stock filly
Dam: Ms Fancy Freckles (gdtr Colonel Freckles/Bills Rock)
Sire: A Breeze of Class
This is one beautiful dun filly. She is so sweet and so friendly. Her dam is a massive gdtr of Colonel
Freckles, and it looks as though this filly will mature with the same type of body. Take a peek at Ms Fancy Freckles
on the APHA broodmares page to get an idea of how this filly will look in a couple of years. This little girl has been ridden
about 45 days now. Most of it in the arena, as well as several rides down the road last summer. (2005)
She is very, very quiet. She has incredible potential as a rope horse, team penner, etc. She can easily be registered
in the buckskin/dun registries, where she could take you to the 'head of the class'. Ready to continue with training,
or will be moved into the broodmare band in the spring.
**Update March,2008. Rode right off without a fuss! She is one quiet,
lazy riding horse. If you ride her, you'd better hope you aren't in any hurry to get to where you are going, because
she sure isn't. Very agreeable under saddle, but she sure won't put out any more energy than you demand from her.
We'll ride her a few more times....but my husband has decided she's riding so quietly for our trainer that she might actually
be suitable as his next trail horse.....(He's a walk/trot kind of guy)
($2500 - expect more price increases w/additional training)
Bred to TJ (AQHA Palomino) for 2010
Diaman H Risky LilPep (836076)
2005 grullo tobiano colt
Dam: Sammy Pepaleo (gdtr Peppy San Badger)
Sire: A Breeze of Class
Gorgeous grulla tobiano colt that has just been tested HOMOZYGOUS for the tobiano gene. His
sire is A Breeze of Class, our grulla tobiano son of Ris Key Business (mulitple world champion/multiple world champion sire),
and his dam is an own daughter of Little Pepaleo (son of Peppy San Badger out of daughter of War Leo. Little Pepaleo is a money earner ($16,000 +), a Texas Classic Senior Breeders finalist, and a
semi-finalist in the NCHA Open Super Stakes.). This little guy has an incredible head and ear with that
stunning grulla color. Definite stud prospect with an outstanding combination of color, conformation, pedigree and personality.
4/5/07 30 days ride just finished......and WOW. He's about the easiest horse to start we've ever had. Extremely
smart, willing and quiet. Putting him out to pasture now, and we'll get him into cutting training in the fall.
Super, super nice.....
6/24/07 Cutting training started, and seems to be an outstanding prospect.
10/1/07. EXTREMELY athletic, now shows both the desire and ability to 'hook up' with a cow.
($7,500) includes 9 months cutting training (through February, 2008)
