Knightonranch on the Clark's Fork River Our ranch is located just East of Bridger, Montana between the Beartooth and Pryor Mountain ranges. Our horses are pastured throughout the year in the winter snow and summer heat, and sometimes amongst the accumulated machinery clutter typical of an older working ranch. This upbringing creates hardy and wise animals.



Sport Horse In 1999 we found, and purchased, a Thoroughbred stallion, Silesia Flash, to fit our breeding program. Flash is a son of Foolish Pleasure (Kentucky Derby winner), and has had four wins, one place, and six shows in twenty starts at Turf Paradise in Arizona. We have many wonderful foal crops out of him, though none of his fols have gone to the tract, they have done well in a variety of disciplines.
Due to time and physical constraints, we have decided to sell Silesia Flash for $1800 (he will go to a good home only!! Ie, someone who knows how to handle stallions and has appropriate facilities.) He is a wonderful horse and still has lots to offer. We will continue to breed to good quality mares until he is sold.

these colts are grandsons of Kentucky derby winner Foolish Pleasure and out of top mares


We have three colts(2 weanlings and 1 yearling) for sale out of our stallion, and are all out of high quality thoroughbred mares, that are proven, or out of G2 stakes winners or better. We are focusing our breeding on Thoroughbreds that show promise as sport horses with eventing being our primary aim. This means large(taller than 16 hands), big boned, and sensible dispositions. We also feel that pasturing in areas with terrain, trees, logs, ditches and rivers teaches them to be smart and athletic. To see Flash's offspring click on BABIES button.






Amos at training level first time with Cliff Our Sporthorses, out of Thoroughbred and Warmblood mares, are trained primarily for jumping and dressage (eventing) however, they're all used for a variety of other tasks: cow work, trail riding, roping and branding, pack trips, schooling mounts at Rocky Mountain College, and whatever other activities we participate in. For information on event horses for sale click on HORSES FOR SALE button.

We also have one five year old molly mule out of a Tenn Walker mare for sale on our Horses for Sale page.

We would like to thank Kay Jungblut for the use of her event horse this summer, that Cliff is enjoying! To see eventing photos click on EVENTING button.
