Of course the major factor in determining the conformation, temperament, and gait was the selection of our stallion,
Glen Hope Gold Rush and the specially selected mares. My selection criteria were very important, in what I was looking for in the sire and dam. I wanted (and got) the conformation from
The Pusher bloodlines, and
Ebony Masterpiece,
Another Masterpiece,
Midnight Sun,
Sun’s Delight D,
Handshaker, and
Ebony’s Senator blood, to name a few. |

On
Big
View
Walking
Horses
Farm
the
mares
are
as
important
as
the
stallion,
although
most
people
always
look
to
the
stallion
as
the
primary
part
of
their
breeding
program.
I
look
for
the
same
thing
in
my
mares
that
I
look
for
in
my
stallion:
1.
|
Conformation
–
the
long
beautiful
neck
and
good
body
length. |
2.
|
Size
–
15.3
hands
or
larger. |
3.
|
Temperament
–
Must
be
calm,
sane,
trusting
quality. |
4.
|
Gait
–
Most
important
is
the
ability
to
slow
walk,
fast
walk,
and
canter. |
5.
|
Barefoot
history
is
a
plus;
mares
must
have
no
history
of
training
with
action
devices
or
weighted
or
padded
shoes. |
6.

Pedigree
–
This
is
where
you
get
all
of
the
above,
because
in
the
mare
and
stallion
runs
the
blood
of
their
ancestors.
This
is
why
I
believe
the
mare
is
just
as
important
as
the
stallion.
For
the
natural,
barefoot,
the-day-they-get-here-walking
performance
and
look
as
described
above
I
search
their
pedigrees
for
the
Pusher
bloodlines,
as
well
as
Ebony
Masterpiece,
Midnight
Sun,
Sun’s
Delight
D,
The
Handshaker
lines
Another
Masterpiece
and
Ebony’s
Senator
to
name
a
few. |
We
are
very
proud
of
our
mares
and
treat
them
as
royal
as
any
of
their
ancestors,
because
they
are
carrying
on
the
bloodlines.
We
hope
you
find
just
what
you
are
looking
for
here
at
Big
View
Walking
Horses
Farm.
Visit
often.
You
are
always
welcome. |
