In moving to North Idaho, our goal is mind was to start raising some really well bred prospects for ourselves and others.
Our big deal was that we breed for QUALITY not QUANTITY! The way we believe is that we would rather have 3 or 4 well bred performance or track bred mares that are producers or performers, then 10 average/middle of the road mares.
We have carefully hand selected our mares and believe that every mare we breed is for a purpose. We look at the stallion to breed to & how he can improve the mare and level out the combination of the mare and stallion put together. Each and everyone of our mares that we have or will have on the Praying Monk Ranch and each and every foal we get out of the mares we expect top inquirers to come along and run these babies in the barrel pen.
Please look carefully at each mares pedigree and you will find that all our mares have the desired bloodlines to be crossed with barrel racing stallions.

Hope is a royally bred barrel horse with bloodlines to die for. Plus her black shiny coat with her fabulous head doesn't hurt either! This mare needs to get into the arena!! She was turned down as a futurity horse due to her trainer not thinking she was a top string A futurity prospect, but she needs a chance. So we are going to give her one. Hope is not the friendliest mare in the bunch by a long shot, her usually her way or the highway. But sometimes a mare with a lot of grunt can kick butt in the arena! Watch for Hope as her filly gets weaned off her and she goes into the arena to give her a try at doing what she is BRED to DO!
Not in foal for 2010. Will be bred to a FWF son for 2011 foal.

What a nice mare this is!! "Magic" has been a broodmare her whole life not getting a chance to prove herself in the arena as she had a wire cut as a yearling. When we started looking for some mares to buy, this one stuck out like a shinning star. She not only has produced fabulous barrel racing babies, but she was the HEAD BROODMARE, #1 MARE IN THE FAMOUS MUNKERS FARM BAND!! This mare came from barrel racing champion MaryAnn Munkers of Oregon and Mary Ann has owned her since she was born.
This mare is super genlte, throws a great hip and neck plus a pretty head on a horse and we are very pleased and excited to add this mare to our program. She is HYPP N/N. Her current foal at her side is a beautiful correct colt by STIR N UP THE FAME by DASH TA FAME out of a MURRTHEBLURR mare. This is a superb colt!!
Will be bred to Dats A Frenchman for 2010 foal.

MAGICS 2009 SORREL COLT: For sale- $2500
FAMED MAGIC MAKER
Nordstrom is one of those colts you want to keep. He has learned so much and is so smart. Very friendly in your pocket type colt. It doesn't hurt either that his conformation is flawless, and his chromed up legs and face make him look even more fabulous. Unfortunality, this colt has to go, as we add more babies next spring to the herd.
He would make anyone a smoking barrel horse or rope horse. I think he will easily be over 15.1 hh, perfect for a barrel/rope prospect. In the right hands this horse is sure to be a contender in the future! You don't find too many Dash Ta Fame grandson for under $3,000... get him quick before you are competing against him in the future!
