About the Cover
Debbi Trubee of North Farm in North Lawrence, Ohio, said it was another incredible year for the Makin Me Willy Wild (Geoffrey) offspring. The 2015, 15.2H black stallion by Winnies Willy and out of Wildly Available is a Multiple World Champion & Congress Champion Sire from his first crop to show.
“While some stallions and mares never re-produce themselves, we’ve been very blessed that Geoffrey is following suit for his foals with his upright build, self-carriage, and correct conformation,” Trubee states. “We were also blessed with his first set of foals landing in stellar programs, which gave them their best shot at success.”
The oldest foal from his test crop of two, Makin Me Happy was Congress Champion in the 3 Year-Old Limited HUS and the Amateur HUS with Angela Fox. “Bean” became AQHA Reserve World Champion in the Amateur HUS and Reserve World Champion in the Amateur Performance Halter Geldings, along with another Reserve in the L3 Non-Pro 3 Year-Old HUS and the L1 Horse Non-Pro Horsemanship.
The NSBA World Show saw winners in the Open, Limited, Non-Pro, and Open Color Longe Line for Willy Makin It for Julie Davis and Willy Rockn Thehouse for Pete Mead. Another winner from the NSBA World Show was Makin It Platinum in the 2 Year-Old Open Color HUS with Judy Zeitler. Outt Foxxed had three Reserve Championships at NSBA in the 2 Year-Old HUS events for Angela Fox.
Makin Shine had a huge win at the Congress for owners Heather & Brett Caplinger in the Open Non-Pro Longe Line with Heather and Reserve Congress Champion in the Open with Kenny Lakins. Also, RJ King showed Dun Makin Me Wild to a win at the Congress in the Open 2 Year-Old Western Pleasure Sales Stakes class.
“Geoffrey’s babies are very user-friendly!” Trubee said. “They are great-minded and, because it’s easy for them to move correctly, training them isn’t a chore; it’s just letting them be what they are. In today’s insanely competitive show arena, you can’t make them be a show horse if they aren’t the real deal.”
Makin Me Willy Wild is subscribed to all the major programs; Super Sires, NSBA BCF & SIF, Southern Belle Futurity, Tom Powers, Appsolute Pleasure, APHA Breeders Trust, and Premier Sires. He’s also in the Michigan Futurity this year, along with the West Coast Breeders.
Makin Me Willy Wild is fully booked for 2023. Contact Debbi for more information regarding prospects currently available at (740) 815-3545.
