    Description

    For those looking for unique harlequin appaloosa genetics, Hercules is the guy. His dam is Tennessee Valley Tia, a lovely harlequin, and his sire is the handsome 3X champion MFI Peruvian Tachometer. Tachometer is a spotted pinto with a distinctive different look than an appaloosa or a harlequin. For illustrative purposes, Hercules' full sister, America, is shown in the photo section of this page. America is a spotted pinto expressing this interesting genetic from her father while Hercules expressed as a harlequin appaloosa, similar to his harlequin dam. As Hercules is just beginning his breeding career, it remains to be seen whether he will throw both expressions... or maybe even a combination of the two-- the ultra rare pintaloosa?!

    Hercules' former owner's wrote:

    This guy is rock solid. He is bigger than most of the cria that are older than him. Hercules seemed the most appropriate name for him. His conformation is spot on but his fleece...… it does not disappoint! He's very dense, fine and displays excellent crimp.

    Hercules had an extensive show career in 2019 and 2020-- Best Breed and Opened, Seven 1st ribbons, seven 2nd place ribbons, two 4th's and one 5th. Hercules is settling females and his first cria are arriving.... now...! :-)
