Ryegate Magi Moro
(Ryegate Moro Magic x Ryegate Dixie Moro)
1986 full Lippitt bay broodmare
At 26 years young, "Maggie" has had a productive life as a broodmare, and now fills a much-needed
role at Holy Moly Farm as a wonderful companion, terrific babysitter, and a remarkably energetic mare under saddle. With the
appearance and attitude of a mare many years younger, Maggie brings the classic look of her sire, Ryegate Moro Magic, to our
herd. Maggie took 3rd place in the mares 15+ class at the 2007 Lippitt Country Show—not bad for an old girl on her first
time in the show ring! As an elder mare, she will live out her life at Holy Moly Farm, looking after our babies and keeping
company with Mist.

Holy Moly Meadow Mist
(Ryegate VT Soma Jed x Double Diamond Anniversary)
2003 full Lippitt black-bay
broodmare
Mist came to us from Alabama by way of Brook Hill Classic Morgans in March 2007.
She had passed through several owners but had not been registered with AMHA until we acquired her, which enabled us to claim
her as our first horse registered under the Holy Moly prefix. When
she was first brought up from Alabama, she was a bit on
the skinny side and flighty from lack of handling, but with daily handling and consistent care at Brook Hill and, later, Holy
Moly farms, her personality and confidence have evolved—she's now a loving, sweet-natured, and well-socialized young
mare. She blossomed into a beauty and she bears a strong
resemblance to her sire, who regrettably is now gelded and won't be producing any more full Lippitt daughters like Mist. Many
thanks to Heather Pinet for bringing Mist to us!
