Touring the Bluegrass - Copper Coin Farm
Thursday, May 1, 2008
On Friday April 25, Saddle Horse Report toured Copper Coin Farm in Simpsonville, Kentucky to promote the new breeders’ tools at SaddleHorseReport.com.
Copper Coin is owned and operated by Wendy and Bob Johnson. They have stood such stallions as Copper Coin's Contender, Deep Blue, Dorian Wild Temper (SA), Promise Keeper, Bess Night Out, Day Of Revival, Uncle Jimmy McDonald, and Wild-Eyed Warrior.
Here are a few of the pictures from a bright, sunshiny day at Copper Coin Farm.

These two colts took a break from gnawing each other's ears to pose for a picture.
A gorgeous colt by Copper Coin's Contender and out of a Deep Blue mare. Deep Blue is by the great Callaway's Blue Norther and out of Yorkshire Pudding, by New Yorker. Not only did Yorkshire Pudding win the ASHA National Three-Year-Old Three-Gaited Futurity with Redd Crabtree, but she produced two other top breeding stallions, Castle Bravo and Reedann's Top Gun. Three different crosses and three top producing stallions.
A colt by Dorian Wild Temper (SA) and out of a Periaptor mare. Wild Temper is the sire of the top fine harness stud, Dorian Warriors Song (SA). Wild Temper was the South African Five-Gaited Grand Champion in 2001 and 2002 and was second in the Five-Gaited Stallion World's Championship in the U.S. in 2003.
