Marty,
Silver Legend was actually born up here in Washington state - his sire is Maudes HiCee (31" black w/4 socks and a PERFECT miniature Morgan) and his dam is Maudes Melody ( 33" dapple grey w/flaxen m/t)-- he is straight Smith McCoy breeding. He was born at Terry & Thorny Davis' farm - Diamond D Miniature Horses and sold to Delmer Moody (either him or the fellow that owned Del Tera Ranch) I believe and then sold once again to Kenda - and then given the name Hemlock Brooks Silver Legend.
My very first mini was a 1/2 brother to him - Diamond D's Little Hombre and I still have a daughter of his in my herd - that would be Deja Vu (or Sami as we call her). Sami broke her pelvis as a yearling so was never shown, but her kids have done really well, and their kids are also going to be ring winners.
My second horse was a FULL sister to Silver Legend - Diamond D's Mariah - I purchased her when she was only 3 days old - she had to be weaned at about 5 weeks and I became her "mommy" and we were unseperable -
Hombre and Mariah and I went to lots of shows and won lots of blue ribbons and championships. Mariah was undefeated as a halter mare and her offspring continue to be also. Hombre unfortunately died of a twisted gut at only age 5, but Mariah is still going strong and has produced numerous AMHA & AMHR National Champions - Silver Song is one of Mariah's daughters and Silver is the dam of National Champions Mountain Meadows Bey Durango and also Mountain Meadows Jewel.
So at least as far as Mountain Meadows is concerned - we have a soft spot for this bloodline - it was, and continues to be a serious force in our breeding program.
Hope that helps, - maybe not a lot on Silver Legend himself, but something on the family!
