Algonquin Steel

Algonquin Steel (Rocky) - AQHA (85% NFQHA)
2004 Grullo Gelding
[see extended pedigree here]

Rocky has been to the UOVQHBF futurity as a weanling and won money in his first halter class. He has very strong dun factor and was tested to be homozygous black. We decided to geld Rocky and keep him as a riding horse, as he's so well put together with a nice hugh hip, tiny head and ears, and absolutely no white.

Rocky's dam, Sun Rock Deanita (Dani), had produced some awesome foals in the past, and she had even earned a few halter points herself. She was truly built like a foundation bulldog-type quarter horse. Rocky's sire, Beau, has been working on reining and comes from the great Mito Commander, Colonel Frost, and Mr. Joe Glo, which produced foals earning 4338.5 points and total earnings of $183,000 in the NRHA.  Rocky is the nicest mover in our herd.
