 is one of the many homebred thoroughbreds of Hillrise Farm, but has a different reason to be, than the other babies born here.

It is a known fact that the fancy babies are more desirable in the show ring as well as the sale ring and after their career at the race track is over, they have a much better chance of getting a permanent home.

 

2006 Paint Colored Thoroughbred Filly
at 1 Week of Age

When Spot’s dam produced a beautiful but spotless foal that Easter morning in the year 2000,after being bred to the most wonderful thoroughbred, Nite Spot, well, it just proved that what you see is not always what you get. Since then, I have found out that it works the other way around as well. Spot carries the Frame Overo and Sabino genes of his fabulous show horse sire and the Rabicano gene of his dam and has produced two paint colored thoroughbred foals and three thoroughbred fillies that carry the frame genes, from eight solid thoroughbred mares. Since his last photograph taken, Spot has matured to a 17 hand beauty with a great temperament and personality, graceful mover, and agility of the best of race horses. Hillrise Farm invites the breeders of horses of all breeds to participate in what will be a very good idea for all.

If you are interested in purchasing Spot's Foals, there may be some for sale, as well as thoroughbred mares in foal to Spot. To see babies and mares that are for sale, you may visit the farm website at www.dog-e-beg.com and click on the "Horses for Sale" .  Be sure and save the site for future visits.If you would like to chat about him, his ancestors, relatives and babies, you can feel free to contact me, Janet Chisholm at PGH15101@aol.com Wishing all of his visitors a happy and peaceful year.

Sired by Nite Spot

Spot’s sire, Nite Spot,(shown above) is a true rarity among thoroughbreds...

He displays his frame Overo genes and also carries the Sabino gene. Nite Spot was a very well known stallion here in the United States and was not only famous for his paint markings but his excellent jumping qualities and many successful hunter competitions. The artist Peter Stone has created a model image of him. Since covering Spot’s dam in 1999, he has been relocated from California to Germany to enhance the European market with his wonderful movement and rare genetics.
