Sorrel
Mare

You can see by her name that we really liked Keeper right from the start. She was my saddle horse for a few years. She would look after me and still nickers to me when I talk to her. She is one of those "special" horses.

Keeper is expecting a 2023 foal sired by Bet Ichi, an athletic red roan stallion with over $25,000 in cutting earnings. He is sired by Cat Ichi, earner of over $300,000 in only 7 months of competition. Cat Ichi is the sire of performers earning over $5.5 million. Bet Ichi's dam, Royal Blue Boon, Hall of Fame, NCHA World Champion, with the hightest producing offspring earnings of all time. Her 2019 red roan colt by Bet Ichi is being started now. The 2022 filly is a beautiful red roan by Bet Ichi. Our son Todd is raising her and hopefully she will fit into his little band of performance horses.
