PHANTOM
HEART - 1991 APHA golden palomino and white tobiano stallion.
Pinto Colored Sport Horse Deluxe! This 1/2 Thoroughbred stallion
is a dressage, hunter/jumper, or event breeder's dream come true.
He also has the speed that top race competitors seek. "Phantom"
has exceptional movement in all three gaits. He tracks up under
himself smartly at the walk and his trot is long, sweeping and
flat kneed. His canter is beautiful in either collection or extension.
It is ground covering and smooth. "Phantom's" markings are beautiful.
He has a palomino head with big dark eyes and a nice blaze. His
body markings are 50/50 and very nicely placed. To say that "Phantom"
has a pleasant disposition is an understatement. He is well mannered,
very willing, and one of the most giving horses you'll come across.
He has clean straight legs with a lot of bone, and good sized
feet. He should maintain the same soundness of his sire and dam.
He is by "Atahi"
(APHA - black and white tobiano stallion, AHSA Open Hunter Champion
Sire), who is 31 years young and still going strong. His dam is
"Phantom Smasher" (black TB mare - 16 hands), who came off the
track sound after multiple wins and five years of racing. "Phantom
Smasher" is also a lovely mover and should have gone on to the
dressage ring after she left the track. She is by "Smashing Success"
(TB), who is a Black Type winner of 13 races and a sire of multiple
Stakes Winners, and out of "Sly Phantom" (TB), who had 17 wins
over a six year racing career and is also a dam of multiple race
winners.
"Phantom Heart"
stands 15-2 hands. Since his sire and dam are both black, he is
able to throw the black and white tobianos so many of you look
for. His first foal was a beautiful black and white tobiano filly,
out of a solid bay, 1/2 TB mare! (I like her so much, I am keeping
her to show myself and then put into my breeding herd.) He also
has thrown buckskin and chestnut out of palomino mares. These
foals all sold prior to beginning their training. Since, Phantom
carries the diluter gene, he is able to throw the rare
and sought after palomino, grulla, and buckskin paints. All of
his foals to date have been #10 movers with beautiful conformation
and sweet personalities.
"Phantom Heart's"
loving disposition, flashy color, exceptional breeding, and classic
movement will make him a crowd pleaser, a winner in speed events,
and an unstoppable success in the breeding barn. Get a jump start
in the sport horse business by owning a proven producer. Reasonably
priced at $25,500. Breeding fee $500.
K G MIRAGE
- 1994 APHA chestnut and white tobiano stallion. Very fancy Pinto
Colored Sport Pony! By "Halloween" (APHA sorrel and white overo
stallion), out of "Sugar Blues" (APHA palomino and white tobiano
mare - "Atahi's" full sister). There are not many horses born
each year that have the ability to become a successful stallion.
An animal needs that combination of flawless conformation, athletic
ability, a trainable mind, and that intangible characteristic
"charisma". "K G Mirage" has all of these qualities! He has beautiful
coloring, the prettiest head and neck you'll ever see, is very
refined while maintaining substantial bone, and has the very correct
conformation and flowing movement to model. He should put a wonderful
flowing stride and beautiful pinto markings on your fancy Pony
Hunter,Quarter Pony, and Sport Pony mares! He stands 14 hands.
His full sister "K G Masquerade", was always in the top
ribbons on the Canadian, "A" large pony hunter circuit. "K G Mirage"
is just as talented, and if anything, more beautiful! If you choose,
he has a very bright future in the show ring. He has an even more
brilliant future siring Champion Sport Ponies and "A" Circuit
Hunter Pony winners. Mirage's beautiful pinto tobiano markings
are just "icing" on the cake! Have "K G Mirage" sire your next
Devon Champion! Fairly priced at $15,000. Breeding fee $500. (Pedigree)

marked stallion prospects I've seen in the United States in years.

in his movement, and has the most gorgeous, long, white, full

his abilities and when worked over fences, has lovely, correct
form. He is extraordinary in all three gaits. Hunter mare owners

and great feet), his body is well muscled with proper angles to
be a superior athlete, and his graceful neck and beautiful head
set off an outstanding package! To top off these bold physical
qualities, he has a sweet, inquisitive attitude. The kind that

DIXIE HEART
- 1996 APHA dark bay and white tobiano stallion. By "Close To
Heart" (APHA), out of "Skips Dixie" (APHA) - (Click
for pedigree).
If you're looking for an exquisitely marked, world caliber
stallion, this is a fellow you really need to see! He is 65% dark
bay and 35% white, with his color placed beautifully. He has a
lovely head with a strongly pronounced jaw and a beautiful shallow
mouth. His eyes are dark with a perfectly centered blaze. This
young stallion's conformation is flawless! "Dixie Heart's" pedigree
boasts countless World and National Champions on both sides! You've
already heard a bit about his sire, "Close to Heart", and his
outstanding working blood, but to top it off, his dam, "Skips
Dixie" (a multiple Halter winner and great working mare), is an
own daughter of the late, great Quarter Horse sire "Sir
Raleigh"! "Sir Raleigh" was the sire of multiple; AQHA
World Champions (in both Halter and Performance), AQHA Champions,
Superior Halter Horses, and Superior Performance Horses (in Western
Pleasure, Hunter Under Saddle, Working Hunter, Pleasure Driving,
Hunter Hack, Western Riding, and Trail). He sired countless Register
Of Merit horses. "Sir Raleigh" was also the sire of "Skips Sierra
Nick", the winner of the 'Copenhagen/Skoal Superhorse' award at
the AQHA World Show. (A 13 page production record on "Sir Raleigh"
is available upon request.) This outstanding stallion prospect
is one of those few horses in the nation that really has
the ability to sire winners in both the halter and a variety
of performance classes. He should make an outstanding reining
horse, with the great looks to "knock-the-socks-off" the
judges, and the "cow-blood" to easily get his points in cutting

ATAHI II
- 1999 APHA jet black and white tobiano stallion. You can
tell by his name how this spectacular young stallion has
been evaluated! "Atahi II" is Big, Black, and Beautiful! For twenty-six
years the name "Atahi" had belonged to one horse only! I've added
a 'II' after the name to describe just how perfect this stud is!
He is 70% black and 30% white. His markings are fantastic, and
his conformation is faultless! He has an exceptionally
sweet, willing disposition. He is a double grandson of "Atahi".
"Atahi II" is the best balanced, highest quality black and white
stallion (tobiano or overo) of his age that I've ever seen. I
feel he will produce the next (fifth) generation of successful,
sound, beautiful, Paint horses at Karen Griffith Farms.
He is by "Ebony
Heart" (APHA black stallion-outstanding own son of "Atahi", AHSA
Champion Sire), out of "Win
My Heart" (APHA dark bay and white, homozygous, tobiano
mare-one of "Atahi's" best daughters). Keep in mind that the great
horses like Leo, Wimpy, etc., etc., were produced by this half
brother, half sister mating of prepotent, genetically correct
sires. I waited 20 years to line breed "Atahi" offspring. I wish
I had begun sooner, but I'm old fashioned, and wanted to breed
to a large variety of mares to make sure there were no 'fluke'
genes there to crop up. You've probably heard the old saying....."You
could breed that horse to a hay wagon and make a race horse! "
Well, "Atahi" has proven to be one of those genetically superior
stallions. With "Atahi II's superb genetics, absolutely flawless
conformation, willing disposition, and beautiful coloring, he
should stamp his offspring with all of the outstanding qualities
that Karen Griffith Farms has worked so diligently to achieve
over the last 30 years. Introductory breeding fee $750.
"Atahi
II" is not available for outright purchase, but I will begin to
sell reserved breeding shares this year. To obtain syndication/price
information, contact Karen Griffith, at Karen Griffith Farms,
34440 State Route 7, Pomeroy, Ohio 45769. Phone-740-992-5782.

K G MYSTIQUE
- 1988 APHA palomino and white tobiano/overo mare. This mare is
elegance personified. 14-1 7/8 hands. She will be able to show
in the English and/or the western classes. "Mystique" is a superior
mover at all three gaits, and should do well over fences, in dressage,
or as a reiner. In whatever discipline you choose, she's sure
to be a winner. As a breeding animal, she is outstanding. In 1996,
"Mystique" delivered a beautiful sorrel colt with white markings by "Phantom Heart". She was an attentive and loving mother. (I sold
this colt before he had even begun his training.) In 2000 she
produced a fancy bay and white tovero filly by a solid colored
stallion! In 2001 she produced a FANCY (a Devon kind of fancy)
buckskin colt! This May she foaled a spectacular, absolutely correct,
chestnut filly with a perfect diamond on her forehead. For you
folks looking for something to show on the line, you really need
to check out "K G Mystique's" babies! "K G Mystique" is easy to
handle and loves people. During the time she should have been
finished and taken to the show ring, we were dealing with serious
health problems in our immediate family. If you are looking for
a superbly bred, reasonably priced mare to begin your breeding
program, or a fine animal to finish and take to the ring, "K G
Mystique" is an outstanding individual. By "Halloween" (APHA),
out of "Sugar Blues" (APHA - full sister to AHSA Champion Sire
Atahi). "K G Mystique" and "K G Masquerade" are full sisters. Reasonably priced at $15,000.

Beautifully marked mare. By "Halloween" - APHA (Sire of Canadian Equestrian

"Masquerade" stands 14-1 7/8
hands. She is a very attractive large pony hunter. "Masquerade" has three
lovely gaits, with an exceptionally long stride. She will jump around any
course. Nothing excites her. She does her changes and has great form over
fences. "Masquerade" has shown the "A" circuit green pony division in Canada
and was in the top ribbons at every show! She trained with Julie Tattersall
& Wayne McLellan in Ontario, and was ridden by Jackie Tattersall. This mare
will win on any "A" circuit in the United States or Canada. As for
"Masquerade's" ability to handle 'stressful' situations, I have even used
this steady girl in parades with fire truck sirens blaring away, and Civil
War and Indian Battle re-enactments! If a horse can march right through
these activities, they can handle almost anything! Put your child in the
'winner's circle' with this flashy girl and realize the joys of riding a
spectacular Paint! Video tape available upon request. Reasonably priced at
$25,000.

trails, and is very responsive. He has good basics on his lateral
work and bends easily. In addition to being a great mover for
dressage and over fences work, he has the ability to be a really
flashy reiner. His stride and movement are what every breeder
hopes to see in the horses he/she gives to the industry. "Thriller"
has the movement, stamina, and agility to be a very nice event
horse. He would also make a wonderful children's or ladies' dressage
mount. This fellow has a pretty head, an elegant neck, a strong
back and loin, and clean, straight legs. His gaits are classic.
He is smooth to ride, and makes having a wonderful seat look effortless.

is a full sister to "Thievin Heart" (1997 APHA tobiano filly --
listed above). She is marked very similar to her older sister
and is just as correct. She will be outstanding in reining or
cutting or will be a fancy large pony hunter prospect. She should
mature close to 14-2 hands. With this filly's great pedigree,
conformation, and athletic ability, she will be well worth her
'keep' as a performer or producer of future fine Paints. She is
also a perfect match to "Thievin Heart" for you team driving enthusiasts.$7,500.

STEALIN
HEARTS - 2000 APHA dark bay and white tobiano colt. This colt
is definitely stallion material! He is beautifully marked,
has a very cute head, textbook perfect legs, a lovely neck and
shoulder, and a nice hip. He is line-bred "Atahi" (AHSA Champion
Sire), and should mark his get with these same fine qualities.
For the breeder who wants to maintain outstanding bloodlines,
"A" circuit beauty and superior movement, he is a dream
come true! He will make a superb pony hunter, sport pony, and
dressage pony. He has the looks and motion to show on the line,
and his form over a free jump is perfect. His beautifully placed
tobiano markings are just the icing on the cake! This fancy fellow
is a 'must-see'! He will be "Stealin Hearts" in the show ring and breeding shed for years to come! By "Ebony Heart" (APHA black stallion - full brother to AHSA - "A" Circuit Champion Bedazzle). Out of "Steal My Heart" (APHA buckskin/white homozygous tobiano mare). A Real Steal at $20,000.
TOUCHIN
HEARTS - 2000 APHA solid chestnut colt, 1/4 TB. This is a
beautiful, bright chestnut boy with copper overtones. He has two
matching hind stockings that go up to a point in front of both
hocks. He also has a lovely white blaze. He looks like a small-scale
Thoroughbred. His movement is outstanding, and his conformation
is very correct. When I am describing in a clinic how a young
stallion this age should be made, this is the colt they should
see! (As a matter of fact, I am currently in the process of photographing
him to use as an example in my clinics.) He will make an outstanding
hunter pony, sport pony, or dressage pony stallion! His genetics
are superb! He should mature right under 14.2 hands. He is
fancy enough to show on the line, and has a wonderful pedigree.
By "Ebony Heart" (own son of AHSA Champion Sire Atahi), and out
of "Touch My Heart" (dam of successful APHA stallion K G Braveheart).
Reasonably priced at $18,000.
