Flying Ace
Farm, owned by Suzy Hamilton of Jackson, Michigan, was started in 1998 with the purchase
of four outstanding mares and one breeding to
Sierra Dawn Uno De Mayo. Suzy was in no
position to have her own farm, so she boards the
horses at Westwind Farms in Mason, Michigan
which is 30 miles away. Cammie Cavanaugh, her
sister, is the owner of Westwind Farms. She has
had years of experience raising miniature horses
and has guided Suzy through the process of
building a miniature horse breeding business.
Over the last eight years, the numbers have
grown to approximately sixteen horses which
include the three foals born in 2007. Flying
Aces Unos Noble Attitude has been Suzy's
favorite horse since she first laid eyes on him
in a video (he was born in Texas). He was the
foal born to Cross Country Georgie Girl; one
of her original mares that was bred to Uno in
1998. She thought Attitude was so impressive as
she watched him trot in the pastures as a foal
and now she is now equally impressed by the
foals sired by him. He has become the
cornerstone to her breeding program. Sadly with
Attitude in training during breeding season in
2006 and 2007, the number of Attitude foals have
been greatly reduced.
In
June of 1998, Suzy was riding her full-sized
horse in the field when a deer jumped near him
and startled him. She was a novice rider and
did not react fast enough and fell from her
horse. She suffered pelvic and hip injuries and
has been left with a permanent limp and chronic
pain in her hip area and legs. Suzy continued
with her desire to produce show quality halter
and performance minis and has been delighted in
how many of her foals have been successful in
the AMHA show ring. However, at times, it has
been quite difficult as Suzy would try to work
with her horses and over time, more and more of
the duties had to be taken over by Westwind
Farms.
In the last year or so, it has been
increasingly painful for her to do much
walking in the pastures or getting down on her
knees to work on a horse. Suzy now realizes
that she is not going to get any better and
that she can not continue with the demands of
running a horse business. So, with regret, she
has made the decision to sell most of her herd.
Many of Flying Ace's mares have produced show
winning foals and Suzy is hoping to sell them to
farms that recognize these horses as assets to
their breeding programs. A few of
the outstanding mares for sale are: Georgie Girl
(Attitude's dam) and Unos Meghan Star (Attitude
of Royalty's dam bred back to Attitude for
2008). There is also a 2006 full sister to
Attitude of Royalty named Attitude's
Mystique).
Attitude has been co-owned by Suzy and Cammie
Cavanaugh for a few years now and he will remain
at Westwind Farms after the show season. We
will open breedings to Attitude to a
few outstanding mares for the spring and summer
of 2008. Please contact Cammie for further
information and requirements for breedings to
Attitude.
Please look through Flying Ace's sales list and
contact Cammie Cavanaugh for any further
information on any of these horses. Suzy will
offer short term, interest free payment plans
with approved credit.
GOING OUT OF BUSINESS SALE!!!
At this point, Suzy would like
to sell all of her horses and is
offering great reductions from last
year's prices. All the mares at
Westwind Farms were bred only one cycle
this year so that all foals would be
delivered by May 29, 2008. (This allows
time for show season and visits to
Cammie's lake house. Since we foal our
mares out starting in late April, some
mares with foals at their side did not
come into heat in time for breeding and
some mares slipped foals or simply did
not catch on only one
cycle. Consequently there are open mares
for 2008, but there is a guarantee that
all horses are breedably sound. Prices
were reduced for open mares.

Georgie is a very special mare. She is the daughter of the
famous LAZY N RED BOY and granddaughter of the immortal ROWDY.
AND she is the DAM OF our beautiful stallion, "FLYING
ACES UNO'S NOBLE ATTITUDE".
Georgie is a joy
to be around. She does just about anything willing and loves
people attention. We have never even had any protests from
her during the many colostrum checks that we routinely do before
delivery. She foaled easily and is a wonderful mother.
In late May,
Georgie delivered a handsome gray pinto colt sired by Westwind
Farms I Promised Revenge. She is one of the mares that did not
show heat before the deadline for breeding, so Georgie is open
for 2008. Her 2007 delivery was a textbook delivery and a
breedability guarantee is given.
Georgie Girl is
a must have mare to the serious breeder.

Dame is a nice 2007 bay pinto and is a
granddaughter of Sierra Dawn Uno De Mayo
on the sire's side. Both parents are bay pinto so she
should throw the pinto color especially if bred to a
pinto. Dame is very curious and friendly and always
comes to see people in the field. She will be a great
basic broodmare that should surprise you with color.

Phoebe is a gorgeous looking horse with a high-stepping trot. She
was in cart training in 2005 when she injured herself. With time
and and consistent chiropractic care, she now seems to be doing very
well. Phoebe was bred to "Attitude" for an early May 2007 foal.
Unfortunately, there was a malpresentation during delivery and the foal
died. Phoebe was checked for any problems for future deliveries and was
found to be breedably sound. We're giving her the year off from
breeding. There will be a breedability guarantee given.
Now for the good news. Phoebe seems to back to normal and
trots around the field without any stiffness since early 2006. She has
had around three months driving training with Darin Southwick before
injuring herself and showed great promise. Go slow with training and
she should be a top contender in single pleasure driving. Phoebe turned
nine in June and she should give you many more years of show driving or
breed her next year to your favorite stallion. 2006 Price

Sandy will be a rare find to many people. She is a daughter of the
immortal RHOTENS LITTLE DANDY. This fantastic broodmare has
produced some very nice foals for us; many with trot and the height
to go with it. Sandy is not in foal for 2008 because she had an
extra long heat cycle when "Attitude" was home for breeding.
"Attitude" needed to get back in training to get get his mind back
to being a show horseand unfortunately Sandy had not finished her
full heat cycle before he left. So, she sells open but with a
breedability guarantee.
Sandy
and "Attitude" are the parents of the talented Westwind Farms
Attitude of a Lady.
For those looking for a rare RHOTENS LITTLE DANDY daughter that is a
dependable broodmare with many more breedable years ahead of her,
then Sandy is it!!!!!!!!!! The mare is a very special lady at
Westwind Farms and we have lowered her price substantially in
hopes of finding a "forever home". 2006 Price ... $15,000
