Raise Your Rocket

1989 Brown/Black Tobiano Stallion, 15 hands, 1100 lbs

Raise Your Rocket combines the mind and disposition needed to make a family horse with no-holes speed pedigree need to win in today's competitive arena.  How can you beat that combination?

We bought "Grandpa" in May of 2005 and are just beginning to learn more about him and his colts.  The two crops of foals we have by him are outstanding!  They are consistently smart, athletic and good looking.  Each one we have seen has his signature smooth floating, flat kneed trot.  People who have his riding age offspring all talk about how "turny" they are.

Grandpa spent the last several years in Canada and his colts there are just entering the barrel futurity pen . . . but their presence is definitely being felt!  Recent standout Raisen Hell is a son of Raise Your Rocket.  Another son, Rockets Rusty Bar is placing high, winning money, and running fast times for owner/rider Sandy Stewart at big events like the Northern Lights Futurity where he placed 3rd!  Update:  Sandy says he's making a super rodeo horse at the young age of six and his new owner is back with him winning money in derbies!

Please note that due to his age, we are not standing Raise Your Rocket to the public any longer. However, we will continue to have foals for sale out of our good mares.  Of course we are biased, but we believe these are the best mares he's ever been bred to and we want to keep him with them as long as possible.

 

 

Pedigree Highlights:

Can anyone see a stallion on his pedigree that is NOT a Leading Sire in at least one breed?  We don't think there is one.

Wranglin Kate, APHA is a Champion 2 Year Old race horse.

Easy Kate is a full sister in blood to Easy Jet Too and all of his remarkable full siblings like Jet Music, Easy Country Music, etc.  (In other words, Tobiano Rose is a full sister to Indian Music herself.)

Here are some pictures we have scrounged from various places and two shots from early 2006.  He's a beautiful horse, even in his later years.
