"Straits Ole Poco Pine" is a strong, well built 2yr old. He will be standing to a limited number of outside mares in 2005. He is also an outcross to our "Doc Bar" & "Peppy" bred mares. His pedigree is full of world champion working performance horses and he has the great nature to match. He has just been started under saddle with Warren Backhouse and is a super travelling horse with a big future in performance - reining, cutting, challenges. He has fantastic bone structure and good big hooves. We look forward to great things from this young athlete.
