2008 Foals Arriving!
|
Jay Star Ranch is proud to announce their 2008 Stallion line up. We have the great opportunity to add a fabulous new stallion to our roster...
JUST ANOTHER MYSTERY N/N
We recently purchased this young stallion from the Shiptons in North Carolina, after they had the opportunity to achieve his ROM. This young stallion is out of my great mare Ima Solo Loper, who is the dam of GQ Eclipse, GQ Silhouette, GQ Soltaire and several other champions. His sire is Mr Elusive, which brings a little different blood to the program.
He is N/N and is also double registered, so we will be showing him in the APHA and AQHA shows.
Look for him to make his debut at the Denver National Western Stock Show 2008.
Along with 'Tron', we will also stand...
Mister GQ N/H GQ Soltaire N/N Hustlers Fabulous Too N/N
All of these stallions will stand to the public offering shipped semen with specific information on each one to follow.

Welcome to Jay Star
Ranch web page, we
would like to give you some history of our horses, our breeding program and
assist you in promoting any ‘GQ’ babies you
may have.
Our facility is in
the heart of ‘horse country’, Pilot Point,
Texas. We chose this location to be near the best horses in our industry and to
avail our horses to this beautiful land. Our Ranch is 5 years old and
growing. We have worked very hard to raise and collect some of
the finest producing mares in the industry. These
mares,
along with a select few of outside mares that have been with us for many years,
are bred to GQ.
Going into our 14th breeding season with Mister GQ, we are very excited to now offer to the public,one of
his sons, GQ Soltaire, or ‘Barney’ as we call him. He is
the result of a careful selection we have been very successful with crossing on
GQ. This beautiful 17 hand N/N stallion has the talent, beauty, and mind of the
future.
But before going into this new stallion, lets share a little about his father....Mister GQ
Living in the
beautiful Coto De Caza area of Orange County, California was not the most likely
place to raise a stallion. After breeding one of our mares to the great Mr.
Conclusion, the resulting foal being Mister GQ, his fate took on a direction of
it’s own. His mother, Always
In Fashion, a great mare,but not a fabulous
show mare, as she would rather be ridden than do halter, was the
key. She was 16 hands, all red, by Page Impressive, out of a Gold Seeker Bars
mare owned by the Whalens. GQ was our only
baby that
year. I only had 4 mares and choose to breed them on
alternating years. This was before shipped
semen. He was rather stunning to begin with and being our only
baby that year got all of the attention. He also had an aloofness about him that
set him just a tad above the rest.
I wanted to be very cautious
about showing him so we took him to only two futurities that year. He won those
easily and started the talk that would follow him for many years to
come.
When he was
a
yearling, there was only one person
considered to handle him. Ted Turner if
he would. He graciously accepted and we started a life long
friendship and association that I value. He is
a true horseman and
friend. Our only disagreement was I wanted to ride
GQ. So, after his successful show career as a halter horse,
I took him home and we started riding. By the age of three he had won a
World
Champion, and two Res. World Champion
titles; had won the Congress
twice along with winning the prestigious Yearling Stallion class, going
Grand Champion
Stallion as a yearling. Then toped off
his three year old season by winning the Solid gold Non-Pro Western
Pleasure with me
aboard.
We brought him home
and breed our mares for the next few years. We decided to take him back to the
Congress as a 4 year old.
He, again won his class in halter
and was Grand Champion
Stallion-Reserve in the Open
division. He qualified for the World Show Aged Stallions so we decided to take
him to the world show for his last go at an open title. With
Denny
Hassett leading him in the Open division
of the Aged Stallions he hit is highest honor being crowned World Champion Aged
Stallion. ...the rest, as they say, is
history...............

Please look through
our site at different categories such as GQ’s Photo
Gallery to see all of his
titles..Mares..to see our broodmares and babies and their records; and our new
stallion, GQ
Soltaire...
We also have a

We hope we can assist you in
enjoying your journey with these great creatures. We
have certainly enjoyed ours.
Sincerely,
Candace Jussen
