Mane on Fire Farm, LLC

Mane on Fire Farm, LLC A small Dutch Warmblood breeding farm that produces hunter and jumper foals and show-ready prospects from performance mares and proven bloodlines.

Mane on Fire Farm offers to the public a quiet, down-home atmosphere for the boarder who is as much seeking a revitalizing atmosphere for her horse as herself. We offer stall and pasture board, lessons, and full-time training. For the discerning owner, our horses are started and trained carefully and correctly with classical basics applicable to a wide variety of disciplines. We as much keep the h

orse's mental health in mind as his physical health, and prefer to include lessons with every training package. Also offered are a wide variety of sales horses at any given time, from foal to prospects. Horse shows are an important component of our sales plans, and we would be happy to represent your horse in these endeavors. Having spent the last several years restarting thoroughbreds from the track, we have acquired an abundance of knowledge on nutrition, healthcare, and difficult horses. If you ever need any advice, feel free to give us a call!

It's probably about time to announce the foals we're expecting for 2025, so here they are -

Emerald van't Ruytershof x Carmeline M - Carmeline M jumped to 1.40 m, Emerald to 1.60 m. 3/4 sibling to Renegade MFF (3 yrs old)

Canturo x Another Royal Pain xx - full sibling to Ruckus MFF, half sibling to Loki/Come Hither MFF, Namaste MFF, and Palladium MFF

Faustino de Tili x Renegade MFF - 3 yo Renegade is out of Carmeline M, who jumped to 1.40, and Faustino has 1.60 m under his belt

Emerald van't Ruytershof x Rainmaker MFF - in 3 yo Rainmaker's 3rd and 4th generations of her mareline, she has two that have jumped to 1.60 m, three to 1.45 m, and two to 1.40 m. She has been super to both ride and free jump this year, so with a cross to Emerald we hope to bring more accolades to this mareline

Omano BC x Nefertiti MFF - Omano is just hitting his stride in the show ring, but has already been successful to 1.55 m. By Cumano out of Sapphire, yes that Sapphire, the amount of 1.50 m and 1.60 m horses that populate his mareline are hard to beat. Nefertiti is our mind blowingly athletic jumper that boasts 10/10 carefulness, technique, quickness, scope, and boldness.

Emerald van't Ruytershof x Undercover - Undercover jumped to 1.45 m and has one offspring already jumping to 1.35 m. Her Chilli Willi and Glasgow vh Merelsnest foals impressed, so we look forward to the match that Emerald might make.

Comme Prevu x Kona KF - Kona's damline boasts successful west coast hunters, and her daughter Scarlett O'Hara by Rotspon shows remarkable scope and technique. Comme Prevu is a stunning black stallion by Comme il Faut, and has been successful through 1.45 m.

😍 We're super excited to watch his future development at such a successful farm!

We are super excited to welcome a new face to our family! Meet RAGNAROK MFF - 2021 KWPN-NA stallion by Contendro I out of Camelita (Cambridge x Lacapo). Ragnarok MFF was just provisionally approved with Belgian Warmblood North American District with some of the highest scores ever awarded to a young stallion in North America. His mother Camelita, jumped to the top of the sport in Germany and here in the US and Canada. Bred by Mane on Fire Farm, LLC in Texas - he will finish out his under saddle training with his breeder Morgan Kennedy and then head to Ocala. We were really impressed with Morgan's program and are excited to continue to develop this North American bred stallion for the young jumpers!

3-year-old Renegade MFF learns how much harder life is when you have to trot in. #lifeskills She's currently in foal to Faustino de Tili for a 2025 foal, but we think she's looking pretty good with her baby belly in tow

Because I know ya'll have had enough of our three-year-olds, here is Rainmaker MFF for the first time off of the lunge line - #Moff #kwpn #mare #howitstarted

From the viewpoint of a 3-yo's second ride undersaddle - Rainmaker MFF is such a bombproof angel already, I can't wait to hack her out or take her to school at a show 🦄🤯 #kwpn #howitstarted #goals #mare

We're probably going to be on a roll talking about our three year olds, because we're super proud of how nicely their first rides undersaddle are. Anyways, because I know you all secretly watch to see if I get bucked off, here is Rainmaker MFF's second day undersaddle! #kwpn #Moff #workit #happymarehappylife

Day one of 3-year-old Ruckus being ridden! Look at what a superstar he is already 🤩 #howitsgoing #backtoschool #showjumper #howitstarted #KWPN (Ruckus is by Canturo out of Another Royal Pain, aka Loki and Namaste MFF's youngest brother)

For #ThrowbackThursday , here is a baby Ruckus MFF and his feelings about scritches!

Today's a big day for the farm .. it's the day we're officially retiring Carmeline M from breeding. She's produced Renegade MFF for the farm, has a 2025 foal coming via recipient mare, and has frozen embryos by Emerald and Diamant for future keeps. Carmeline herself hit the ground in 2001, making her 23 this year! Her sunset years will be on the farm, featuring soaked alfalfa cubes, body clips, and her mane braided and tail washed by kiddos. 🦄

The Past, The Present, The Future

The Past -

I remember when I was young watching this gorgeous chestnut mare trot around the ring. It was a typical Houston afternoon - stifling hot, even in the covered arena - the kind of day where no amount of shade could make you comfortable. Despite that, a crowd had gathered; a new queen had come to roost at the modest boarding barn we called home. She was the epitome of what a sporthorse should be, as she possessed the floaty, ground covering trot of a hunter, the temperament of a Children’s Hunter, and scope of an international-level jumper. She was enough of a contrast to our thoroughbreds, quarter horses, and warmbloods that we found ourselves transfixed that day - even if she was “just hacking”.

‘How do I recreate this level of exceptionalism?’ Is a pretty succinct summary of our breeding philosophy. The goal is a horse that through thoughtful breeding can embody qualities an American hunter or jumper would ask for in her dream horse.

So, about three years ago, the Kennedys started to pursue that dream. We purchased a ramshackle farm in foreclosure, and spent the following six months discovering things that needed fixed at a far faster rate than fixing can happen. So we began on a seemingly endless endeavour - replacing every foot of fencing, clearing out aging structures, and building new barns - almost entirely ourselves. A year and a half later, we had earned far more life lessons than dollars, and yet the farm was really beginning to evolve into something incredible.
