Meet our fabulous baby, Mane Top’s  Turn It Up “Lindy”.  She was born early Thursday morning at Mountain View Equine Hospital where  her mom wass staying during her last few weeks of pregnancy. We weren’t taking any chances with this baby!

More pictures of Lindy and Laura! - Thanks to the Ackerson family!

Lindy’s mother, Laura, was imported by Bob Crandall for Jan Seweall so she could use her to compete in the Adult hunters. Laura also showed successfully in the USEF Working Hunter Divisions. After an injury in the field Laura could no longer perform at those heights. Jan’s good friend Cindy Wilkes, owner of On T he Bit Farm, bred Laura to her famous Hunter/Jumper stallion, Paparazzo. Check this guy out…

Paparazzo
1995 Bay 16.3 Elite Hanoverian
Pablo – Debütant – Raffael

Paparazzo was a winner at the 2003 C.S.I. International Grand Prix jumping competition in the Youngster Grand Prix Tour (7 & 8 year-olds) in Germany. He also has 10 other career wins in national competition (4 to 5 feet). Paparazzo has fabulous hunter movement, “picture perfect” jumping style and an exceptional disposition.

After the last foal was born Cindy bred Laura back to Paparazzo. Jan decided it was time to find a new show horse and made the tough decision to sell Laura and the Paparazzo baby inside her. Luckily enough Kristen saw Laura’s ad in the Chronicle of the Horse magazine and we couldn’t believe we had found her. After talking to Jan we all knew we were going to figure out how to get this horse to Mane Top. Jan loved the idea of Laura being our breakthrough broodmare, giving us the chance to establish our breeding program and having a life long home. We wouldn’t have Laura or Lindy if Kristen’s uncle Jay hadn’t expressed interest in being a part of this breeding adventure. Jay and his entire family loved the idea and helped Mane Top’s dream of owning Laura come true.

We will have plenty more pictures to share soon. Come by and visit our new addition! We are looking forward to Lindy’s future at Mane Top Stables…
