Welcome to our site and
congratulations on discovering the most exciting Morgan sport horses
anywhere!
CANEQUIN is a 35 acre
farm in upstate New York which has bred highly competitive Morgans
since 1974. Our foundation stallion is EQUINOX LOCOMOTION, a classically
correct champion with a charismatic personality and remarkable gaits.
We have acquired a few exceptional mares of predominately Upwey
Ben Don bloodlines to complement LOCOMOTION. Canequin-bred Morgans
are now highly regarded by both active competitors and discriminating
breeders; a LOCOMOTION daughter was exported in 1989 and founded
the first Morgan breeding farm in France.
Living proof of the breed's
versatility, our horses have triumphed in many equine endeavors.
In 2000 and 2002, a Canequin Morgan was selected by the USET to
represent the U.S. in international competition at the World Singles
Driving Championship.
We specialize in breeding
slightly larger horses retaining strong breed identity, plus all
the qualities for which the Morgan is so highly prized; soundness,
stamina and beauty. The Canequin horses are well known for their
intelligence, excellent attitudes and eagerness to work.
When you buy one of our
Morgans, you can be assured it has been raised in the best possible
environment with big, safe, rolling pastures, maximum turnout, and
customized immunization, farrier and dental care. Our veterinary
nutritionist carefully designs a balanced ration which provides
our youngsters with the perfect start in life. It is with great
pride that we recognize the many Canequin Morgans who are still
actively competing, totally sound, in their late teens and 20's.
We encourage you to browse
through the photos of some of our current "Stars" and
admire our wonderful LOCOMOTION. But be forewarned; the Canequin
Morgans have made many converts in the past and you might just find
your future "Star" on our Sales List!
