16.01.2022 Chapter 6. Lone Wolf History. Attica Wolf: I am so excited to be drafting 2 progeny in future. Ernesto Wolf (Colt by A Cool Acre) the yearling in pic, and (Wolf in Socks by Time Zone) foal in other 2 pics. She is a very balanced horse. Small, only 14hh, but when she run she looks like water. I only rode her 4 times and loved her. No buck/soft/sensitive.... She has 2 hair whorls on forehead above eyes. I can send you a link to some research if your interested. Many of the champion grand prix jumping horses have 2 hair wholes side by side on forehead. The higher the wholes above eyes the more challenging to train. Attica has a three quarter brother who sold for $16k as 5 yr old gelding (Noble Wolf). I think he was the best horse I have drafted thus far. I am very confident Attica would have surpassed Noble. She became a breeder due to circumstance, not from any fault of her own. She has now been sold to owners of her dam who plan to draft her. Good luck Tay and Peter. I can not wait to see her put the beast through the gate. As a last note I think in summary, Attica is as good as her gran dam (Miss Moorhen), but heavier horse with a better chasing allele.

11.01.2022 Mention the name "Iron Horse" to an old timer and one horse comes to mind Clabber. The hard knockin' sorrel stayed sound amidst hard use over many years. He... was not good looking, but he could run, and this trait placed Clabber among the greats. Clabber was foaled in 1936 on Frank Smith’s ranch in South Texas. His sire was My Texas Dandy and confusion surrounds his dam. Later issues of the AQHA studbooks list Blondie S, by Lonestar as Clabber’s dam. However, Bob Denhardt and Melville Haskell, founder of the American Quarter Racing Association, list Golden Girl by Possum, as the correct dam. Either way, there was speed on Clabber’s maternal side. In 1938, A. A. Ab Nichols of Gilbert, Arizona, bought the sorrel colt. The horse was not much of a looker. He was roman-nosed and his feet flared out like clapboard on the side of a house. Nichols entered the horse in his first race as Clab Foot. Before long, the colt’s fans were calling the chestnut Clabber, and the name stuck. However, there was more to Clabber’s life than racing. Nichols would ride the stallion all day ranching, roping, heading and cutting cattle. Clabber was then hauled 100 or more miles to match-race three or four times a weekend. The sorrel did not receive the special training or the bandages, blankets, liniment or special treatment other racehorses received. Nichols once said, He (Clabber) could outrun those pampered horses that smelled like a drug store any day of the week and twice on Sunday. And Clabber did, earning the nickname Iron Horse. The American Quarter Racing Association named Clabber the world champion Quarter Running Horse and world champion racing Quarter Horse stallion in 1940-41. In 1944, Frank Vessels Sr. purchased the sorrel and moved him to California. Vessels would build Los Alamitos racetrack and become a well known racehorse breeder. Clabber proved his worth as a sire. He sired Tonto Gal, who rated AAA; Wagon N, Clabber II, Clabbertown G, Clabber’s Flossie V and Clabber Girl. Clabber died of a head injury on Vessel’s ranch in 1947 at 11.

07.01.2022 Launching a new initiative today in an attempt to give clients more data about the horse they might want to purchase from us here at Lone Wolf. It will assess the horse sat key points from birth to first draft. 1-3 point scale where 3 is good on the following checkpoints 1. Handling at day old 2. First tie up 3. First time on float/truck... 4. First ride 5. First ride back from first spell 6. First ride on cow 7. First draft I will go into more detail about what each criteria looks like for each checkpoint below. Handling day old: 3. Accepting 2. Slightly annoyed an anxious 1. Very anxious and angry First tie up. 3. Hits end of rope softly then stands 2. Pulls back twice then stands 1. Pulls back repeatedly and remains anxious First time on float. 3. Walks on and stands 2. Resists but loads with some encouragement 1. Takes more than 20min First ride: 3. Horse move/stops and responds to cues calmly and in a timely fashion. 2. Horse moves forward and responds to some cues. Needs more time to process cues. Resists somewhat 1. Horse is resistant to most rider cues with limited improvement throughout ride. First ride on cow: 3. Takes an interest, moves towards or away on own, changes expression, tries to dominate 2. A slight indication of 1 of the above. 1. No interest at all. Dull to cow. First draft: 3. Enters camp and separates beast, tracks at slow pace, pulls up happy. 2. Resists entry, gets anxious, difficult to separate cow. 1. Cant separate cow. Not track when putting away used cattle. Disclaimer: I am a non pro. Only ride on weekends. This is a client driven initiative. No advice given. WATCH THIS SPACE: I AM HOPING TO RECORD THE BREAKING IN AND FIRST 20 RIDES FOR ERNESTO WOLF.
05.01.2022 I apologise for bragging. It is hard for me but I feel it is necessary in the new world of the loudest voice wins. My last 3 horses sold have averaged $10000. One of those horses was a mare with only 5 rides. My next goal is to crack the 20k mark which I am hoping to do this time next year at Nutrien sale with my Times Up colt in pic. Public are welcome to ride him. We live at Stanthorpe. He will be primed up by xmas later this year. I will draft him throughout this year. Only had 25 rides to date and 2 draft starts.
