The Moore's
John M. Moore II & Cynthia Moore


Our program
is based on breeding the best possible mares to national champions. We plan to show the resultant foals to enhance their value and salability. Most of our lines are Polish and domestic. To that end we have purchased and bred Verona VF a five year old chestnut Alada Baskin daughter out of the champion producing mare Fiona. Verona VF is a full sister to National Champion Gelding Fiero . Verona is in foal to 2005 National Champion Enzo for a May 2006 foal. We have purchased Sue Bee's Honey a black bay mare by Rohara Samurai (Samir x Aramus) out of TF Sue Bee (Excelladin x Ferzon daughter) Sue Bee's Honey was Champion Futurity Filly in the tough Region XII as a three year old with Ted Carson. She is in foal to Pyro Thyme SA for a April 2006 foal. We have also bred the very lovely and correct Toskbria daughter FMA Gabriella to PyroThyme SA and she is expecting in June 2006. We also have bred the pretty, well balanced Toskbria daughter FMA Victoria to Vanilla Zip for a half Arabian palomino or buckskin for 2006.

We want to thank June Yahola for allowing us to purchase the beautiful and charming Pyro Thyme filly, Pyro Liza Thyme. Pyro LIza was futurity champion filly open with Kim Potts and amateur champion with John Moore at the Oklahoma State fair in 2005. She was Junior Champion filly at the North Texas Shoot-Out 2005. She has been a lot of fun and we look forward to showing her in 2007. She has been bred to Eden C for a 2008 foal.


How It Started

In 1979 we originally named our ranch Four Moore Arabians for ourselves and our then two little children who participated in the care and showing of the horses. Our son Johnny showed a little in showmanship and he rode western. Stacey, our daughter, rode western, hunter and English.

We originally bought Arabians because of their beauty and character. John really loves halter and living in California we saw many of the greats: Ferzon, Fadjur, Aladdinn, Calobask, Bey Shah and Raffon to name a few. Stacey even got a short ride on Khemosabi. On one occasion we witnessed both Huckleberry Bey and Karajorge perform in the most spectacular liberty class ever in Reno Nevada.

Our local Gilroy club had 55 members in a ten mile area. We were all friends and really enjoyed the camaraderie. Fame VF was born to Bob and Pat Radamacher friends of ours and Dick Adams their trainer called us and said a future national champion was born. We went to the Radamacher Ranch when Fame was three days old to see the future champion. Before the Radamachers purchased Raffoleta Rose, Fame's dam, we had driven by her daily and knew she was for sale, but the Radamacher's had the foresight to buy her and breed her to Bey Shah.

We later bred to Port Bask, Fame VF, Toi Soldier and JK Amadeus. Some of these horses made the move with us to Texas. We purchased a stallion, Toskbria a well balanced beautiful chestnut stallion, which both Kim Potts and Gordon Potts helped us with. Kim showed him to regional top five and John showed him to amateur top five. Toskbria won many halter classes for us. One great memory was when John showed Toskbira to Champion Stallion and then our pure polish mare Gabiotka to Champion mare at the Cowtown Classic. Later, Travis Braden rode Toskbria western where he won in San Antonio.

Daughter Stacey continued showing in Texas with many wins on her English mare Arabasque, her western mare Gabiotka, and her hunt horse Cabria. Cynthia also won a western pleasure championship on her Padron daughter NW Romance, herself many times a halter winner.

For the last six years we have been building a new ranch and have not been breeding. But for, 2006, we are excited to have four mares in foal. And thanks to June Yahola and the beautiful halter filly Pyro Liza Thyme SA John is back showing and winning in the show ring.
