Morgan Cross: Morgan (Lippitt)/QH Mare

Bay Roan, Sporthorse, 15 h

Background

Aliyah Chantilly represents the sport-focused extension of our Morgan breeding program. Sired by C-My Doc Holiday, a name recognized within the Lippitt community, Chantilly blends Morgan intelligence and durability with added athletic scope and agility.

Now owned and ridden by our daughter, she remains an integral part of our program’s future development.

Temperament & Athletic Profile

Chantilly is intelligent, highly responsive, and deeply people-oriented. She thrives on engagement and demonstrates exceptional body awareness and agility. Her movement is expressive and balanced, with suspension and elasticity well-suited to dressage and performance disciplines.

She forms a strong partnership with her primary handler and responds best to clear, thoughtful training. Her work to date has emphasized positive reinforcement and structured groundwork, allowing her natural enthusiasm and quick learning ability to develop without rushing her maturity.

She has been lightly started under saddle and continues to develop with patience and repetition.

Future Direction

Chantilly is expected to continue her development in Ranch and working equitation. Her athleticism and speed also suggest aptitude for sport-oriented disciplines. For the upcoming season, she is planned to be bred to a dun Morrisian stallion, furthering our Morgan Sport Horse vision — combining intelligence, versatility, color expression, and modern athletic ability.

Growth & Development

Chantilly matured quickly in height, reaching 14.3 hands by age two and currently standing approximately 15 hands. She continues to develop muscling and substance consistent with a sport-type Morgan cross. She was tested for the LP (Appaloosa) gene through her dam’s line and did not inherit it, confirming her bay roan coloring.

About Doc: Doc is a full Lippitt Stallion (Old Style Morgan) with an amazing temperament. People are surprised to discover he is a stallion because of how sweet and easy going he is. Breeding wise Doc is strongly influenced by the celebrated Lippitt stallion STILLWATER INDIGO, who excel in numerous activities from driving to Mounted Police. Doc is sired by the late RYEGATE MAJOR whose strongest influence comes from Lippitt Ethan Ash, a Lippitt stallion known for producing lovely traditional and very Type Morgan horses. Ethan Ash's genetic power was strongly influenced by both Ethan Allen 3rd. and Ethan Allen 2nd. Ethan Allen 2nd., cornerstone stallion of the Lippitt family, was said to be strongest source during his lifetime to the blood of Figure.

About Thistle: Thistle is a sweet mare that wants to love but due to a rough start in life she doesn't trust humans easily. She stands 14 hands high and would make a great kids competition horse if her start in life had been less abusive. On a straight away she has speed to burn and loves burning it. Even heavy in foal she still enjoys a good gallop and still does some pretty sharp turns too, round belly and all. Thistle is very athletic and pregnancy isn't slowing her down much. On the trail she gives the smoothest of rides. Her trot is beautifully floating. When not pregnant Thistle is being worked toward competing in Working Equation and Gymkhana events.

Chantilly and the Helicopter

She did Awesome staying with me to watch the helicopter dust the neighbors field. The other horses ran. Note the helicopter was much closer than it appears in the photo and flew over us several times.
