Carbonado Farm is proud to present NFF Echo's Blue Moon. After having started a heritage gelding, NFF Wilson's Dan Oliver,   I realized I had found the type of walking horse I had been looking for. I soon purchased NFF Echo's Blue Moon,     a full brother to Dan Oliver, in hopes that Moon would be as natural and biddable as Dan Oliver.

 

 Austin and Dan Oliver (Ollie)

 

My expectations were exceeded. After two short sessions with Moon in the corral, he was ready to run our bird hunting  dogs.     On his first outing, Moon was exposed to numerous dogs and puppies running all about, birds flushing around him, gunfire,  and other horses. He took it all in stride, as if he was born for it.

 

Blue Moon is a black sabino that will mature between 15 to 15.1 hands, not only is he completely natural in his gait, but he      is extremely friendly around the rest of the herd, whether it be covering the mares, or grazing with the youngsters.

 

 

 

 

 

 

       

NFF Echo's Blue Moon 

 

 

Moon is regularly used for dog training, trail riding, and ranch work. Moon is broke to drive and is used to pull a wagon to transport field trial dogs at local field trials.

 

 

          

 

 

 Moon has a completely natural flat and running walk with lots of headshake. He is very surefooted, and always ready to canter when asked. Moon is extremely affectionate, just loving to be scratched in his special spot at the base of his neck.   He  is calm  and friendly with young children.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moon's dam, Red Bud's Angel (deceased) contributed the Jab Faulkner breeding descending from Lucy Sue's Angel, and going back to Black Angel. Black Angel was the 1943 World Grand Champion. In the old Blue Ribbon magazines, Black Angel's ads had a slogan that said "This mare can walk!" Moon's pedigree also has old bloodline stock such as Hunter's  Allen, Merry Boy,   and Top Wilson. His grandsire is Red Bud's Rascal, who had ten foundation "F" horses on his papers.

 

 

Moon's sire, Echo's Star Gray Wilson, is one of Paige's Echo's sons, tracing back to the rare Red Eagle F-61, this non-Allen line offers genetic diversity and hybrid vigor. Paige's Echo's dam, Pinky Lu, was sired by Wilson's Merry Boy GG, blending the famed Merry Boy line with a full sister to Miller's Wilson Allen, one of the nation's leading sires of flatshod show walkers  in the late forties.

 

The dam of Echo's Star Gray Wilson was sired by Star Gray Wilson, a linebred Wilson's Allen horse that stood at the stud farm of Jimmie Gray, one of the leading trainers in the late thirties and forties, and rider of several flatshod World Champions. Star Gray's dam traces back to Sir Maugray, a rare bloodline, from Auburn Gray's breeding program.  Star Gray's sire, Paige's Echo, had eight foundation "F" horses on his papers, his dam had three "F" horses on her papers. These are true Heritage Walking Horses. The Echo bred horses are known for their sensibility, willingness, work ethic, and quiet   dispositions.

 

Moon's sire contributes 30% Wilson's Allen bloodline, rarity in this day and age, especially since the 30% Wilson's Allen         only has ONE line back to Midnight Sun. On the videotape, "A Look Into the Past", Dr. Bob Womack says Wilson's Allen,   in his opinion,was one of the finest stallions of all time. He sired natural, loose moving foals. Star Gray exhibits the looseness     of gait that Wilson's Allen was known for. Moon's pedigree also goes back five times to the Grey John horses, through his sire.

 

Research done on Society Man's offspring in 2003 showed out of all the sons he produced, only ONE, Paige's Black Boy, had sons who had sons who are still in production today. Of the Paige's Black Boy sons, only one son has sons who are still   in production, and that son is Paige's Echo, the grandsire of my stallion.

 

To appreciate how rare this bloodline is when it comes to an unbroken top line on the pedigree, of males to carry on the Society Man name, there are less than a dozen stallions out there in production today, NFF Echo's Blue Moon being one       of them.
