This girl…. She’s got a talent for working with horses that most of us dream of.
Nyx will be 16 in May….. she wore a saddle for the first time three days ago, and Maddi sat on her last night for the first time.
Tonight…. Her first ever ride. 🥹
Nyx, we are always proud of you, but wow you’ve blown us away.
And Maddi….. these horses are so lucky to have you 🥹😭

May every single day of 2025 encompass the joy felt in this very moment!! M is the first person to ever back our sweet coming 16 year old broodmare Lilou Lill Attitude, aka Nyx.
(No she’s not angry, she’s listening and processing the requests of her handler)
This genuine love, kindness and generosity of this mare is beyond anything we could have dreamed. ❤️❤️❤️
Here’s to another trip around the sun!!! 😘

When one of the horses in the barn is dramatic….. or, is she….just… napping?

We want to highlight some of the great horses on the papers of our mares and babies…. And today we celebrate lineage of our mare Miss Niki Pine, starting with 4 generations back on her dam’s side, the phenomenal 🔥Peppy San🔥!

"Peppy San" (AQHA #000544467) is celebrated for his accomplishments in cutting and his contributions to the breed.

🏆 Earnings and Achievements 🏆

**NCHA World Champion Cutting Horse (1967)**: Peppy San won the NCHA World Championship in 1967, establishing his reputation in the cutting world.

**Lifetime Earnings**: His career earnings in NCHA events exceeded $49,000, an impressive figure for his time and a reflection of his success in the sport.

**NCHA Hall of Fame Inductee**
Peppy San was inducted into the NCHA Hall of Fame in 1976

**AQHA Hall of Fame Inductee (1991)**: His contribution to the breed earned him a posthumous induction into the AQHA Hall of Fame in 1991.

What would this look like today?

Peppy San's lifetime earnings (LTE) exceeded $49,000 by the end of his competitive career in the late 1960s. Adjusting this amount for inflation to estimate its equivalent in current dollars (2023), we can use the average annual inflation rate of about 3-4% over this period.

Using an approximate 3.9% inflation rate from 1967 to 2023:

**$49,000 in 1967 is roughly equivalent to
$450,000 - $500,000 in 2023 dollars.**

This adjustment reflects the purchasing power of his original earnings in today’s economy, highlighting his significant financial impact in the context of contemporary earnings in competitive horse sports.

Peppy San's legacy extends through his offspring, many of whom have gone on to be successful in cutting and other performance events. His genetics contributed significantly to the popularity of cutting horses with his lines, furthering the success of the breed in competitive arenas.

To say that we are proud of the two babies H2O Performance Horses produced in 2024 would be an understatement.

We arrived home safe and sound this evening, and we can’t wait to share some more about the week after we have had a chance to rest and reflect.

A fabulous start to both Dun It Luminous and HollywoodScrtSociety’s show careers, showing off their absolutely solid manners, great brains and their stunning good looks this week in their first ever off property event.

They both showed the confidence of seasoned professional show horses all week long. From the moment they stepped into the trailer to head to Ohio until the moment they jumped off back at home.

I am proud to call these babies part of my program and cannot wait to see what next season brings, if this is where they are at just FIVE months old!

By far the youngest babies in both of their classes, they truly were an excellent example of what can be expected when you buy a baby from our program.

But their story with H2O Performance Horses is just beginning…. These two won’t have a price tag, they’re simply irreplaceable.

Stay tuned for their careers! Next year in hand trail at FQHA shows, Halter with AQHA/IBHA/ABHA and more!
