• Our concentration of Driftwood blood started with the Stanley
and Randy Johnston mares. These mares were a blend of
Driftwood, Poco Speedy, Orphan Drift, Sak Em San (son of
Peppy San), Doc’s Jack Frost (sire of Sun Frost) and Captain
Crusade. We bred these mares to our Blue Valentine stallions.
• Another good cross was My Drifty Pride and daughters of

his gentle disposition that he
passes along to his colts. You
will see his sons and daughters in
many breeding programs.
Dick Van Pelt
“Randy” is one of the last sons of
Blue’s Beard, and we think he’s
the best. He has a nice hip and a

has earned his ROM in heading
and heeling, has qualified for the
AQHA World Show and has won the
Oklahoma State Fair team roping.
He is easy to be around and has lots
of personality. He comes to about
22% Joe Hancock blood and over
8% Peter McCue. He is making an
excellent cross on our Blue Valentine
mares. He’s a true blue champion!
Dick Van Pelt
Chip Merritt
We looked around for a stud that met
our criteria for preserving the Blue
Valentine bloodlines. After breeding
some mares to this horse and getting
all outstanding colts, we decided to
purchase him. Chip remembers roping
calves and punching cows on Rowdy
Blue Man and Blue Fox Hastings was
a full sister to Gooseberry. He’s 50%
Blue Valentine and the extra Plenty
Coup is a bonus.
Randy Dunn
We named him this because
in blood he is 43.75% Blue
Valentine. People who knew
Rojo when he was younger have
said this horse looks and acts
just like him. He is the closest
thing to Rojo that has been
raised. We believe he has an
exciting future ahead of him. 15
hands and 1300 lbs.

horses I have ridden. A high
percentage of his colts each
year are blue roans, probably
because he has 7 blue roans in
his pedigree. His colts are easy
to work with and fun to ride.

If you follow our breeding program, we
don’t use or buy outside studs. But we
found “Moon” and bought half-interest
in him from fellow breeder and friend
Jerry Jeppson. He’s homozygous
black and 43.75% Blue Valentine.
He’s a little more refined and modern
than some of the traditional high %
Blue Valentine sires around. We are
excited to cross him on our Rojo,
Gooseberry, Leo Hancock Hayes and
Roan Ambrose daughters.

Blue Fox has qualified for the
upcoming World Show in 4
events. He’s earned his Open
Superiors in heading and heeling. For most of the year, he
has consistently been in the top

Blue Valentine? And...he is
STILL producing 100% roans.

Merritt Quarter Horses
Chip, Kathy, Brady & Corey
The Start of A Tradition...
Vince Hayes in the late 1800s.
It all began in 1880 when my great-grandfather, Vince Hayes, trailed a herd of good
mares from Ft. Riley, Nevada to Thermopolis, Wyoming. His two sons, Buster and Laurie,
continued the tradition of raising and riding top horses and sought ways to improve them.
Around 1951, they purchased Texas Blue Bonnet, a son of Joe Hancock. They started
crossing him on their own mares and in 1955 a Patron mare bred to him produced a foal
named Plenty Coup, who went on to also produce many top colts.
At about the same time my grandfather, King Merritt, brought one of the first Quarter Horse
stallions, “Old Red Buck P-9” to Wyoming. As a respected horseman, King had judged the
first Quarter Horse show in California. He and all his children were well known for their
horsemanship skills. King and his son Hyde brought additional stallions to Wyoming, including
Ambrose and Patron. Hyde inherited from his father the satisfaction of riding a good horse he
knew he had raised.
In the fall of 1956, Ken Gunter gave Del Haverty
the pick of the Red Man colts. Del picked a blue
roan stallion named Blue Valentine. Del trained
Blue to rope calves, tie-down team rope, and haze
Buster and Laurie Hayes
dogging steers. Blue later was most famous as
a steer roping horse but Del always felt he was
a better calf horse than anything. Del sold half interest in Blue Valentine to Buster and Laurie
Hayes.
Buster and Laurie stood Texas Blue Bonnet, Plenty Coup, and Blue Valentine. It was quite
an experience to see these studs out with the excellent set of mares Buster and Laurie had
accumulated.
The tradition continued when my mother, Dede (Buster’s daughter), married my father, Hyde.
Hyde started breeding his Ambrose mares to Hayes’ Plenty Coup, then took that cross and bred
to Blue Valentine. This program produced the stallion Gooseberry, Crow Creek (Lory’s top calf horse),
and many good mares.
Hyde and Dede then bought the other half interest in Blue Valentine from Del. Hyde felt like it was
a great privilege to rope steers on Blue. In 1970 Hyde roped at his last Cheyenne Frontier Days
on Blue. Everet Shaw, who rode his share of great steer roping
horses, told Hyde that Blue was the best horse at Cheyenne that
year. Hyde and Del both felt that Blue started out of the box quicker
and could catch cattle easier than any horse they had ridden. The
combination of Blue’s athletic ability and Del’s training made him
hard to beat.

Texas Blue Bonnet.

The Tradition Lives On...
Kathy and I continue this tradition by raising horses with as much
Texas Blue Bonnet, Plenty Coup, Ambrose and Blue Valentine as
possible, hoping to preserve the heritage of these great bloodlines.
Offering the best horses we can raise is what we work on all year round.
What we bring to the sale each year is no accident. Kathy & I work diligently
with the future of these horses in mind. We know what the two of us like in a
horse, but the direction of our breeding program involves a lot more than that.
Each year’s colt crop represents our efforts to improve upon the last.
People from all over tell us that these horses have such good
dispositions. One thing holds true...No matter what different things we
do with a horse, we all want to ride one that’s gentle...versatile...athletic.

“Winning a World Championship is a huge honor, but being a

prestigious. I feel that the high point horses work harder by the
number of performances, and the number of different judges
they show to. They have to be a very consistent type of horse to

That is so Good for the Inside of a Man?”
Van Pelt’s Vista Grande Ranch is located south of Laramie, Wyoming, 8 miles south of I-80, up against the
base of the Laramie Range of Mountains at about 7400 feet above sea level. The high plains of Wyoming, its
good hard grass, cold mountain water, and acres and acres of bright blue unpolluted sky is home to the Van
Pelt string of top quality ranch bred working cow horses going back to Blue Valentine, Joe Hancock and Leo. It
doesn’t matter whether you rope, cut, barrel race or just need a good tough ranch horse, we have something that
will fit you. This year we have welcomed another firecracker crop of new foals for your review and we always
have lots of select yearlings from which to choose. We feel our breeding
program is now producing the best of what we have to offer – the color is
TRUE BLUE and there’s lots of it…come take a look. We know everyone likes
a choice, and our horses sure offer plenty of choices. August is a great time to
visit Laramie…drop by to see our horses and visit over a cup of coffee.
We’ll leave the light on for you.
Dick and Dianne invite you
to visit Vista Grande.
Les Talkington & Dick winning at the USTRC
Regional Finals in Cheyenne. Dick is real proud of
Jimmy, who ropes in a pencil bosal and needs very
little guidance. Jimmy’s dam is a maternal half-sister
to Leo Hancock Hayes. Dick says sometimes we
don’t give enough credit to the mare.
I feel I have the best
cowgirls in SE Wyoming
on our payroll! Tori and
Heyli Bonham, along with
Toby Dunlavy, are just
the touch we like with the
yearlings. These horses
have gentle starts and trust
everyone, thanks to these
young ladies.
Here’s What You’ve Been Asking For...
Greg Frye has been riding sale horses for me for the past several
years. He has done an outstanding job. Our customers are very
pleased with what these horses can do. This year he had some bad
luck when a horse fell with him (not one of ours). So only one of the
horses he had finished will be in the sale. The future looks bright.
Greg and his 14 year old daughter, Riyatta, spent the summer riding
seven 2-yr-olds. She has had to step up and help her dad out, and
has become an even better hand this summer. Although some of
these horses won’t be finished by sale date, you’ll see them next
year, if we don’t sell them first.
Lot 62
Greg did a lot of ranch work with Go Blue Cowboy,
including dragging calves to the fire.
I was lucky
to get Kiley Scott to
ride three horses again
for me this year. You
won’t be disappointed
with what you see.
You’re really going to
like these big gentle
ranch horses. For as
young as they are...no
one can say they don’t
learn fast! You’ll be
impressed when you
see them work sale
day. They will be “dog
gentle” and here’s a
picture to prove it!”
It was very rewarding to receive pictures of Linus Clark and Clay O’Brien Cooper winning the 4th Annual Sweetest
Loop Pro-Am Roping in 2009. Linus is riding an 8-yr-old son of Blue Hancock Cowboy out of a Leo bred mare.
Linus trained this horse himself and Clay was impressed with the horse’s consistency. He commented on the
excellent handles knowing all he had to do was come around the corner and do his job. Congratulations to both
Clay and Linus and their good horses.
At the end of the day,
this is what it is all
about...
This big blue stud, owned by trainer Danny
Schicke of Nueve, California is the reason
I love raising these horses. I accidentally
found this colt, a product of our 2003
sale, while visiting friends in California.
I was real proud to see my brand on this
good-looking horse. Danny won 3 saddles
and over $10,000 on him as a 4-yr-old.
Danny estimates he has ridden and trained
a thousand horses, and he places this colt
in the top 1% of all of them. He loves his
disposition and ability to learn.
It would seem foolish to turn your 4-yr-old
grandson loose on a 3-yr-old horse, but that’s
exactly what we did. He first rode Cowboy
Creek in the arena by himself. This 3-yr-old is
already a baby sitter, broke to be a kid’s horse
by all the little Fryes who range in age from 5
to 14 years old. Cowboy Creek’s 2-yr-old full
sister, Cowboys Queen Lana sells in the sale.
Jackson, Dick and Jimmy

With the proven producers in this pedigree, you should be able
to take this mare to the show pen in any of the working events.
Because she is approx 22% Driftwood, she’s a top broodmare
prospect as well. Sired by multiple World Show qualifier Mr
Junewood, she will have 35 days riding by sale time.

This might be the best colt this mare has ever had. Great
possibilities with Blue Valentine and Plenty Coup on his
papers. A Sharp Commodity was a champion halter, western
pleasure and hunter/jumper horse.

This filly is developing into a stylish young mare, and I like her
because she has some of the “good ones” in her pedigree, like
Doc O Lena, King Fritz, Bert, Custis Rastus, Poco Lena and
San Siemon.

This mare is over 17% Joe Hancock and double bred Hancock
Duplicate up close. Three Bars is the sire of Clip Bars, an AQHA
champion. There is lots of performance here, but if you’re lucky
to have a Blue Valentine stud to breed her to, it should be a
winning cross.

33% Blue Valentine. This filly is the classic Driftwood/Hancock
blend, and we believe the Blue Valentines make the best cross.
8x Blue Valentine gives you a lot of genetic strength. Rojo
Woodsping has produced one of our top foals every year.

Blending the performance and cowhorse blood of Blue

palomino roan color. This filly has incredible potential. The
quiet nature of Sak Em Briarwood and Blue Brdgets Rojo
ensures that she will be a pleasure to train and ridie.

She’s not as big as the rest, but she’s catching up with the rest. She’s
got lots of chrome to go with her red roan color. Meanest Competitor
was AAA and a track record holder. My Easy Charger and My Champ
were both AAA. Bill Nebeker of Prescott, Arizona is roping off a son of
My Champ that he is really proud of.

Usually this mare’s colts turn blue after I sell them. This one
will be blue by sale day. She goes back to lots of horses I
like, including Leo, Poco Bueno, Poco Tivio, Joe Tom, Lowry
Hancock and Quarter Hancock.

An unusual opportunity for a performance colt sired by a
multiple World Show qualifier and out of a half sister to Mr

Leo and Sugar Bars completes his proven performance
lineage. This colt is also 50% Leo Hancock Hayes.

This pretty red roan filly has a dynamic cross of 10x Blue
Valentine and 4x Texas Blue Bonnet. Combining this with Leo
and Sugar Bars gives this filly and amazing blend of performance
and speed. She should have an easy going attitude, and the
known athletic abilities of Fox Coup offspring.

This colt’s mother has one of the best dispositions of any horse
I’ve ever been around, and when we rode her by the seventh
day she looked like she’d been ridden for 30 days. The trainer
claimed the success, but some of it had to be the mare. Her
babies just love people.

This mare has produced several good ones. This colt has a full

And last year we sold a 2-yr-old full brother that was a real eyecatcher. This cross has always worked well for me.
