✨ A ROYAL MATCHING — EXPECTING 2027 ✨

Crown Cavalo is proud to announce an exciting upcoming foal by GUNTHER THE DRUM HORSE and our magnificent PARNELLRANCH MISS BARBIE DOLL. 👑🐴

This pairing brings together the power, presence, and unmistakable beauty we look for in every Crown Cavalo breeding—combining Barbie Doll’s exceptional Clydesdale influence with the distinctive character and presence of Gunther.

Foal has a 50% of being either: Sorrel or Palomino

We are especially excited about the potential of this cross: substantial bone, beautiful movement, impressive size, abundant feather, and the gentle, willing temperament that makes the Drum Horse so extraordinary.

Every Crown Cavalo foal begins with a vision—to thoughtfully combine exceptional bloodlines and produce horses with the beauty, temperament, athleticism, and presence worthy of carrying the Crown Cavalo name.

✨ Congratulations to Michelle Bridges ✨

We are so excited to share that Crown Cavalo Melania Trump has officially found her loving new home with Michelle Bridges.

Melania has been special from the very beginning. This beautiful F2 Drum Horse filly is by the renowned Avalon’s King Arthur and out of our beloved purebred Clydesdale mare River Run Magnolia. With her exceptional pedigree, strong bone, beautiful movement, abundant feather, and sweet disposition, Melania represents so much of what we love about the Drum Horse breed.

While it is always bittersweet to see one of our foals begin a new chapter, we could not be happier knowing Melania is going to such a loving home.

Congratulations, Michelle! We are so excited for you and cannot wait to watch Melania continue to grow, shine, and become the incredible mare she is meant to be. 🤍👑

✨ At almost a year old here is a Sneak Peek at Our New F2 Drum Filly ✨
Crown Cavalo Melania Trump

We are proud to introduce Crown Cavalo Melania Trump, a beautiful F2 Drum Horse filly with an exceptional pedigree, a powerful story, and a very bright future ahead of her.

Melania is by the renowned Avalon’s King Arthur, an influential F1 Drum stallion known for his size, bone, abundant feather, expressive movement, color, and wonderful temperament. King Arthur is by the legendary Gypsy stallion Clononeen Ard Ri and out of the elegant Clydesdale mare Lady Abbigail of Avalon, giving Melania a pedigree filled with strength, presence, and true Drum Horse quality.

Not only was Arthur a Supreme Grand Champion Stallion but his offspring have carried his legacy forward beautifully. His 2012 son, Theo, was also named Supreme Grand Champion Drum at the Oklahoma State Fair, surpassing mature competitors and proving the exceptional quality Arthur consistently produced.

Melania’s dam is our special mare River Run Magnolia, a purebred Clydesdale with the kind of substance, elegance, and presence we value deeply in our breeding program. Maggie is so special we try to keep her hidden so no one steals her. Her Superb Canadian bloodlines quickly trace back to Great Britain 🤣 She is the most athletic Clydesdale we have ever encountered.

Melania had a rough start, arriving into this world with a systemic infection that required care at Rhinebeck Equine. Thanks to the amazing love, attention, and expert care she received, she has strengthened, healed, and is now showing us exactly the kind of resilient, beautiful filly she was meant to be.

Melania offers everything we love in a quality Drum Horse prospect:

✨ Exceptional pedigree
✨ Strong bone, Abundant Feather and Substance
✨ Beautiful movement
✨ Presence and elegance
✨ Future show, breeding, riding, or driving potential
✨ A sweet, trainable disposition
✨ A story of strength from the very beginning

Drum Horses with this pedigree, quality, and heart do not come along often.

Crown Cavalo Melania Trump could be yours at a very reasonable price.

The horse that started it all… 🖤🤍

Meet Prim. My Primrose. Primmy Baby

She was the very first Drum Horse I ever purchased, and the moment I saw those unforgettable blue eyes, I was completely hooked.

I thought I was buying a horse…

Instead, I found a breed—and a passion—that would change my life.

Every braid, every grooming session, every trail ride, every foal, and every quiet moment in the barn has made me appreciate these incredible gentle giants even more. Prim isn’t just beautiful—she has the kindest heart, and she reminds me every day why I fell in love with Drum Horses.

I’m excited to share more of our journey, from grooming, breeding, and training to everyday life with these amazing horses.

What was the first thing you noticed about Prim? Was it her piercing blue eyes, her braids, her big butt, or all that gorgeous feather even though it’s wet 🤣? Let me know in the comments! ⬇️

If you love horses—or you’ve never seen a Drum Horse before—I’d love to have you follow along. There’s so much more of Prim’s story to share.

❤️ Sometimes one horse changes everything.

Passenger Princess update: 🐴✨
Refuses to leave the trailer unless it’s parked directly at her destination.
So naturally, I drive the trailer all the way to the barn door.
She pays me in manure and attitude.

If she could order DoorDash from inside the trailer, she absolutely would.
