Voge Quarter Horses of Whitesboro, Texas is excited to announce that the couple will be standing their homebred stallion, Heart Stoppin (Joey) to the public in 2019. The three-year-old bay stallion had an exceptional show season last year and is now retired to the breeding barn. Joey is by RL Best Of Sudden and out of top-producing dam One Hot Mouse.
“After Joey was weaned, we knew he could become an exceptional horse,” Justin Voge told GoHorseShow. “We hope he passes on his soundness, beauty, trainability and natural movement to his offspring. We wanted to focus on his breeding exclusively moving forward with him,” says Voge, on why they decided to retire him after his two-year-old year. “We also know there are risks of going up and down the road. He retired a happy and sound horse, and we are looking forward to his foals.”
In addition to these exceptional traits, Voge mentions the mare power in Joey’s bloodlines as another reason mare owners should consider breeding to him. His dam, grand-dam and great grand-dam are all multiple Congress Champion Producers.
In 2018, Heart Stoppin had a phenomenal year in the 2-Year-Old Western Pleasure classes with unanimous wins at the Tom Powers, NSBA World Show, NSBA Breeders Championship Futurity and Congress. He ended his glorious year with a Reserve World Championship in the Two-Year-Old Western Pleasure at the AQHA World Show. In all, he showed to 24 judges with 21 firsts in 2018 under the supervision of Aaron Moses.
His stud fee is $2,500 with early booking discounts. He is enrolled in Premier Quarter Sires and the NSBA BCF. Joey is a HERDA carrier and negative on the rest of the 5-panel genetic test. He will stand in Whitesboro, Texas with Justin Voge at Heritage Equine Reproduction Center. Please call Justin at (785) 564-1923 or email him at vogequarterhorses@yahoo.com for more information.
