Leopard Rock Sport Horse Appaloosas

HOME

             For nearly two decades Leopard Rock has been producing quality, colourful horses bred to compete in the Olympic disciplines of dressage, eventing and show jumping which are usually Thoroughbred and Warmblood dominated areas of equine sport.  Emphasis is placed correct conformation, superb movement, ability and, very importantly, tractable temperament but still having that necessary spark to compete at high level.   If you are looking for a sane, intelligent, easy to work with colourful athlete—contact us.  We know what it takes to create a horse with both the conformation and the ability to succeed in the various disciplines.  Preference is given to competitive homes.

             Usually, people have to continuously cross breed to Thoroughbreds and Warmblood / Thoroughbred mixes to attempt to achieve and maintain what we already have in our purebred Appaloosas - size, bone and ability.  There is minimal to no cross breeding in our pedigrees, and if there is, it was some generations back and only to the crème de la crème of proven stock, chosen for their conformation, size  and athleticism such as ‘Nearco’, the Italian Thoroughbred who is one of the founding Thoroughbreds of successful Warmblood lines.  Because of this, our horses have very strong Appaloosa genes, for colour, temperament and hardiness so they are prime candidates for cross breeding to quality Warmbloods or Thoroughbreds because of their purity.  You can be sure of getting a sport horse with the best pedigree available along with intense Appaloosa genes, for those competitors who wish to have the very best of both breeds in one horse.  We do not breed with halter horse lines as these types of horses are not athletes and in general lack the conformation and ability to be able to perform in any equine sport.

             We have always been a small, exceptionally select stud. To this end, we have in the past few years imported three fillies and a colt from the world-renown lines of JG Appaloosa Sport Horses and will solely concentrate on this line with our champion Appaloosa stallion, Many Moons.  The first true ‘Wap-bred’ foal born in South Africa has met all our expectations and more. 

Our motto is … Quality, never quantity!

~We breed for conformation, movement, temperament and pedigree!~

…When only the very best is good enough…
