I met most of the horses in this video, and they are all wonderful! Great personalities. I was actually there yesterday. I go each year with my Aunt, and we always see something new.

My husband and I stopped in and toured the farm. We were treated like royalty; loved the place. There's nothing like a Morgan--I owned a son of Chasley Superman, loved him with all my heart and he loved me back.

Love the video. Awesome horses.

Justin Morgan's stallion was more than likely a Canadian horse. The King of France sent over very well-bred horses to the new world, and that's what they looked like. For Morgans to be so prepotent, they had to have come from a purebred horse - now known as the Canadian horse. Been in Canada since 1600s, easily could have ended up in the US. Look exactly the same.

That's Nate Gusakov's track "Abigail's Tune" from the album Running Clear. There's a link to it in the description and the end credits.
