Oneka's French Silk Foaled: 5/25/03 Color: Bay Reg: ASPC 151712A - Foundation Certified Sire: Royal Red Viking Dam: Bold Print's Dreamer Height: 45 inches
Silk is one of those mares that just gets better and better every day. We purchased her as a weanling from Oneka Ponies and loved her style and disposition then and we love them even more today.
Silk started her show career as a yearling. She was stunning even then but a bit too extreme in looks for the Classic show ring so we chose to show her Modern Pleasure. Silk earned many Top 5 and Top 10 National All Star rankings as a yearling.
We brought Silk back out into the show ring in the Classic Division at the National Shetland Congress in 2005 where she placed Top 10 in every class she was shown in after a year out of the ring.
Silk produced fillies sired by Unique in 2007, 2008, and 2009. She will be bred back to Unique for 2011.
Royal Delicate Design Foaled: 8/7/96 Color: Silver Bay Reg: ASPC 144280 - Foundation Certified ~ AMHR Pending Sire: Royal Red Viking Dam: Royal Blondie Le Height: 40 inches/38 inches
Delicate is another dream come true. She is a maternal half sister to our Hall of Fame Halter gelding Royal Beau and a paternal half sister to our beloved Oneka's French Silk. Delicate is a fine example of Royal line breeding and her first foal with Willowlawn's Mr. Unique (HOF) in 2007 made his show ring winner circle debut in 2008.
Two of Delicate's foals have made there mark in the show ring on the West Coast - Royal Devine Design and Plattes Undeniably Royal. Plattes Unparalleled has been showing in the Midwest and Texas and was pinned Congress Champion Modern Pleasure Yearling Stallion, Under at the 2009 Shetland Congress.
Delicate is bred back to Unique for a 2010 foal.
Royal Acclamation Foaled: 6/1/98 Color: Silver Bay Reg: ASPC 146237A - Foundation Certified Sire: Royal Red Viking Dam: Royal Megan Height: 43 inches
I still wasn't over the shock of being able to purchase Delicate when Henry Siemers generously offered to allow Drizzles to join the Platte Ridge mare herd. She may be the best moving of our three Viking daughters and we look forward to many future foals from her and our stallions. She had a colt sired by Willowlawn's Mr. Unique (HOF) in 2008.
Drizzles is bred to Unique for 2010. She will be bred to Mister for 2011.
Oneka's Painted Jewel Foaled: 5/11/08 Color: Bay Tobiano Reg: ASPC 159161 Sire: Royal Red Viking Dam: Double Dare FMF Height: Should mature under 42 inches.
Just when I think I have my herd right where I want it to be the farrier throws me a curve ball and offers me not one, but TWO young Viking daughters! I'm still in shock and thrilled to add Painted Jewel to the herd! Thank You Don for letting these lovely young mares move north!
Shenanigans EGF Foaled: 5/3/07 Color: Chestnut Tobiano + Sabino Reg: ASPC 158474 - Foundation Eligible Sire: Royal Red Viking Dam: Larch Acres Shabana Height: Should mature over 42 inches.

Lena is the first foal from Silk and Unique's first daughter. She has the style and grace of both her parents and if not sold she will likely join our show string in the future. Modern Futurity sustained. Lena is a family favorite and is extremely curious about the world around her. SOLD Congratulations to Stone Pony Farm!
