Description

There are only 5 outside breedings available to this guy - don’t miss your chance! We’re so excited to see that he’s already recreating himself. We can pick your girl(s) up during the fall show season at Buckeye, VAOBA, or OK Blast-Off (or anywhere along the way). Breeding fees include 90 days of board and pregnancy confirmation.

Epic X Celestial Cygnus - a true game changer in the appaloosa/harlequin world! He's next level spots, and he's producing them too. He has a strong build with great bone. He has a perfect leg set on his macho frame. His fleece qualities are exceptional, with his third fleece still placing in Grade 1 in both colors. He has a high frequency, high amplitude structure that's well defined and consistent throughout his blanket. It's really no wonder he's been able to rise to the top in the show ring - winning two championships where numbers were met.

His sire hails from a bloodline I've been anxious to add to our herd for nearly a decade. Enchanted Hill Lutau (pictured) is out of two of my favorite appaloosa/harlequins - Vintage Cashmere Utopia (pictured) and Enchanted Hill Appalucy (pictured). This combination of the Aussie Rockford (pictured) line and an imported harlequin, Maria's Angel (pictured), proved to be just the right combination. This group has produced some exceptional spotting and continue to shape the spotted industry.

Now that we've talked spots, let's talk about the elite animals on his dam's side that no doubt played a part in advancing Cygnus' fleece. His dam, Snowmass Elite Celestial Legend, is not only an appy maker, but also has a fleece that scored in the Top 1% in EPDs for six categories in her teens! She's sired by the well-known, highly decorated, Snowmass Elite Legend (pictured).

We are only allowing 5 outside introductory breedings to this guy as a way to share our excitement for him joining our herdsire row. We'll be offering discounted board for your girls through March of 2025 - you don't want to miss this opportunity! Contact us today for details.
