ABOUT US 

FOX BRUSH MORGANS  began in l988 with the purchase of four Morgan yearling stud foals from Funquest Farms in Topeka, Kansas.  

Breeding Morgan horses was not our goal at that time; rather they were purchased in hopes of them becoming Competitive Driving horses.   The four colts that we purchased were the last four Morgans left in Stuart Hazards dispersal of his Funquest Morgan herd and were:  Funquest Erick, Funquest Sharpwing, Funquest OhOh and Funquest PopPop.  

Of these four,  F. PopPop was gelded and later sold  as was F. OhOh,  after he went on to be the first Morgan to compete in the Battle of the Breeds representing the Morgan breed.  

Funquest Sharpwing   become a Jr. Western Pleasure winner as well as a double National Reserve Champion Competitive Trail Horse for both the Morgan breed and NATRC , completing 500 miles of Competitive Trail, sound and fit, and still resides at FOX BRUSH.  

Funquest Erick became only the second Morgan in the history of the breed to be named MORGAN SPORT HORSE and was the first  Morgan to be branded  and  approved  by the  AMERICAN WARMBLOOD SOCIETY   with a score of 83% which ranks him in the top 10 of  ALL breeds of Warmbloods tested and is an approved AWS breeding stallion, and remains a very important sire at FOX BRUSH MORGANS.    

In July, 2004, we added Funquest Windstar to our Funquest program.  He is a son of Funquest Talstar and out of a mare, Funquest Fizbi, that brings in an important source of Jubilee King blood, not to mention movement, temperament and athletic ability.  We are very excited about our newest addition and the foals he has sired for ourselves and others and consider him an important addition to our breeding program.

FOX BRUSH MORGANS  began our breeding program in l990, with the purchase of  Morgan mares  with heavy lines of Flyhawk, Linsley, Tehachapi Allen  and Jubilee King lines and that is the basis of our breeding program to this day. Our breeding program utilizes the old Government Remount/Cavalry lines , thru Brunk, Brown, Sellman,  and the Hill lines of the Morgan breed.   

 These lines were astutely blended by Stuart Hazard in his Funquest breeding program.  The Funquest Morgans are known for their beauty, disposition and athletic ability in whatever discipline they compete and have proven themselves as working horses, as well as in the show ring.   

We think the Funquest breeding has left an indelible mark on the Morgan breed  and we are attempting to preserve and perpetuate the versatility and inherent  athletic abilities of the Funquest Morgans and the Morgan breed.
