ACE O SPADES
Sire: Sonnys Chance (grullo) Joaker out of Fit Tasmokem
All (grullo)
2005
AQHA - BLACK - STALLION - Homozygous Black
I
have been so happy with Ace; he has been a perfect gentleman,
with wonderful ground manners. I’ve
had him a year now and he is still the same baby that
came off of the trailer at 8 month old, he is more sane
then some of my other horses. The ground work that you
have instilled in him goes such a long way. I have just
purchased a set of DVD’s by Clinton Anderson and
have plans to continue the training method you’ve
started. I will keep you posted as to the progress
he makes. I am very excited and plan to have him
in a halter show this spring, if he is anything like
his father, we should have good news coming your way.
I’ve sent a few photos of Ace taken this month
January 2007, he is standing with Robert. By the
way Robert is 6’6” tall, so as you can see
Ace is a tall drink of water. Hope all is well
with you and your family; I thank you again for all of
your help and in depth information regarding Ace. I
am looking forward to his future as a strong, stable,
sound stallion. In my opinion there is no other place
I would look further for another weanling/yearling then
with you and your facility. Sincerely, Robin
Pascale from NJ

Sonnys
Chance Joaker x Fit Tasmokem All
Wanted
to let you know that Miss Dee just arrived and all went well
they said and not a mark on her. SHe is pretty and I really
do like her and feel she will fit right in here. I love
all the info you sent and what a great file you have given
me and all your help. YOu are very professional and kind
in going the extra mile to get everything nice and is very
appreciated as I don't find that much around always. I too
try to give everything to help be like family to the new owners
and want horse and human to be happy and well matched. As
always you have given me the best info!!! We loved
looking through your paperwork as we carry a lot of the same
bloodlines and keep the legends books around as have kept our
program to this type of line. She is sweet and can tell she's
been worked with and handled a lot which is rare at her age
and really helps me out as I have so many two year olds to
train through late fall and won't have to worry about her.
WE enjoy her so much already. Has been such a pleasure
working with you. Thanks again and have a great summer. Wendy

Chance Joaker x Bosses Krystal Moon
Smoky
is a great horse!! He likes my husband - he went right up to him! The haulers
liked him also, and they told me how gorgeous Smoky's sire is.It's hard to
go by pictures sometimes, so for them to tell me that confirmed my feeling
(I would have guessed that his sire was good looking in person also). I brushed
Smoky out some today and I also rinsed him down (he was really
good for everything). Well,
I'll keep you updated on his progress & how he does at showing!! Steph

I took Trouble to the ABRA Show on June 14-15

halter, showmanship and trail. Trail is our strongest class. On Saturday,
one of the judges actually placed us first in Halter, Amateur Mares.
I love my horse! We earned 72 points and walked away with Reserve,
Amateur, Hi-Point. I missed Hi-Point by 6 points. Joakers Deelight

Moxie has charmed the entire ranch. Everyone loves
her. She has a delightful personality and wonderful mind. Friendly,
playful, eager and brave. I couldn't be more pleased with her progress.
Last time I put a stick on her she was 15.3 hands and she is developing
nice muscle. Her coat has become the envy of the local equestrian community.
She is so awesome and gets so many compliments. Thank you! Dean Nelson,

JOAKERS ZIPADEE
2000 AQHA Chestnut Mare
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Clea Star
I bought Joaker's Zipadee as a weanling from Linda.
It was obvious that she had been handled a lot because her ground
manners were awesome, especially for a weanling. "Zippy" shows a
lot of potential for the show ring. I would most definitely purchase
another horse from your and recommend others to Linda. The care for
the horses is there from day one and she is very helpful it I had
any questions. Amy Flatland, WI

2002 AQHA Grullo Gelding
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Jesta Smokin Jessa
Zeus is the sweetest, most easy going, easily
trained horse I have had the pleasure to work with (and he is a stud!).
He's always polite, loves attention and is easy to handle. He has
the nicest disposition in the entire barn (we have 25). Linda is
also the nicest seller I have had the pleasure to deal with. We still
keep in touch after three years and I wouldn't hesitate to buy a
dozen more horses from her! Summer Cranford, Temple, GA

AQHA Bay Mare
Big Boss Bonanza x Ernestine Supreme
We just love Krystal! She is part of the family. She
will follow our son around like a puppy and put her head right in
his arms for a hug. Scotty runs right over and gives her a scratch
on the neck and a hug. He loves to ride her and she is very careful
with him. We all thank you so much. Oh, Scotty said if I talk to
you to tell you thank you! Scotty Nelson and Family, Rice Lake, WI
June 13 - Hey Linda...Its Janet's best friend Janelle. Just letting

is doing wonderful....she is just the most sweetest mare ever...and
I can say that Janet and her family are just loving her to death..oh

SONNYS MR JAGUAR (aka Riley)
2003 AQHA Sorrel Gelding
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Bosses Krystal Moon
I wanted to let you know how pleased I have
been with Sonnys Mr Jaguar. "Riley" has the best temperament of any
horse I have every worked with and he is sweet, sweet, sweet! I am
double fortunate because not only does he have excellent manners
and disposition but he is also gorgeous. He is already 15.3 hands
and he will not be three until March. Everyone at the barn says it
looks like I am up on stilts when I ride him because he really is
ALL leg! His trot is smooth and balanced and he is naturally slow
at the lope. I showed him in some greenie classes last summer and
he did great in Western Pleasure as well as in Hunt Seat.
He is also a
very sensible trail horse and he has already had many miles put
on him at home and on away trips. Riley is a barn favorite and
I just wanted to thank you for breeding such a wonderful horse!

JOAKERS DEETAIL (aka Deetail)
2000 AQHA Dun Gelding
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Pixy Janes Star
We purchased Deetail as a weanling.
He's a good boy. He is a beautiful dark golden dun. His color is
very unusual and exactly what I want. He is so very nice and quite.
He has matured into a large, beautiful horse. He's a solid 16.1 hands
at the hip. I constantly hear comments of how BIG he is and how pretty.
I prefer training dressage and trail riding over showing. Deetail
would do very well in a show ring. He has a pretty, refined face
with BIG black eyes and round substantial hips and chest. His color
is striking and eye catching. Deetail is all personality. He is inquisitive
and confident, quiet and smart. He has taught me patience and calm.
In October I watched my sister (who rides and trains) ride him and
I instructed her to collect him into a slow trot. I then SAW the
movement I've only felt. His way of travel has to be seen, not described.
He has this dancy trot, when if slow enough, his legs move with sideway
rhythm. See? It has to be seen. He will gallop up to me in the pasture
and halt to sniff my hand. I can change his speed with my seat and
voice. I can ride him with a rope around his neck, bareback, in the
moonlight. We are best friends. Tori Dupre, MN
JOAKERS STARS N BARS (aka Felix)
2004 AQHA Grullo Gelding
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Pixy Janes Star
He is totally awesome. Doesn't spook at anything,
trusting of people, follows us anywhere and is so sweet. Stacie said
she has never had a horse so easy to train. Everyone at the barn
is nuts over him. Thanks so much for this awesome guy. Rebecca Dempsey,
WI - May 2006: Linda, thought I would give you an update. Felix
is doing wonderful in his training. My daughter has had a couple
lessons on him and has shown him at Creekview yesterday. I
am sending some pictures of him. Oh, he is about 16HH.

PIXYS JOAK (aka Joker)
1996 AQHA Grullo Stallion
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Pixy Janes Star
We had a great year, we bred 135 mares total. Joker
was
our number two breeder, only our palomino bred more mares than
he did. Thanks again for letting us have him. My husband is riding
him now and taking him to the local sale barn every Friday to work
cattle through the sale. He rides like dream and he uses him in
the pasture to herd cattle and rope. Shirley Allen, Winsboro, TX
Pixys Joak was sold to Carrie Trammel....Linda, I took him to a show last
weekend. He got a 2nd and 5th in dun factor. I had to leave early and missed
the pleasure class. I am starting him over fences since he is so athletic.

JOAKERS MIDNIGHT SON
2001 AQHA Black Gelding
Sonnys Chance Joaker x Pixy Janes Star
I am using him for Living History
events and most of all my favorite pleasure riding on the trails. Many
people comment on his king eye and calm disposition. He is like a big
puppy dog. We love him dearly. I just personally wanted to thank you
for producing such a fine animal as Midnight. Al Czamecki, WI
