| Sleepycreek's Pistol Pete
("Pete")

Sleepycreek’s Pistole Pete is a full Lippitt
bred Morgan. The Lippit bloodline has strived to keep the
original and distinct Morgan characteristics that Figure, the
founding sire of the Morgan breed born in 1795, gave to his
foals. To learn more about America’s first breed of horse check
out The Complete Morgan Horse written by Jeanne Mellin. In 1995
I had the privilege to meet this wonderful author and
illustrator at the Penn-Ohio Morgan Horse Association year end
banquet!

Pete is 12 years old and is incredibly gentle
with his riders. He can sense when you are afraid or loosing
your balance and will calmly stop and wait for you to regain
your confidence. Shown in hunt seat, showmanship, and western
pleasure, Pete’s small stature does not stop him from being
competitive and strong. His solid bay color and long thick mane
resemble Justin Morgan’s stallion Figure.
