MU One Last Zip, also known as Minnie, is a stunning red dun AQHA yearling with a unique star, stripe, snip, and white markings on three legs. Her compact build, charming personality, and exceptional pedigree make this filly an outstanding performance prospect. We expect her to be around 15 hands at maturity. Minnie has been raised at the MU Equine Teaching Facility and routinely handled since birth. Her stellar pedigree is full of horses that have excelled in pleasure and ranch related disciplines. Minnie’s graceful, agile movement and outstanding conformation make her a great prospect to follow in their footsteps.

Minnie’s sire, the late Doc O Valentino, was a 15.1 hand red dun AQHA/IBHA stallion that was owned by the MU Equine Program during the last seven years of his breeding career. In addition to producing outstanding offspring, this stallion was also used to teach our students about stallion management and handling. As a three-year-old, Doc O Valentino was the IBHA National Futurity Champion in western pleasure. He was an incredibly versatile sire, with offspring winning titles in the show pen and also working livestock on cattle ranches. His offspring are used in a variety of different disciplines including western pleasure, horsemanship, western riding, reining, roping, competitive trail, mounted shooting, and ranch horse. Doc O Valentino produced IBHA Reserve World Champions and Open ABRA Reserve World Champions in western pleasure, as well as earners of over 250 AQHA/IBHA show points, 80 AQHA AllAround, and Reserve All-Around wins. Minnie’s paternal grandsire, Doc O Mos, was used as a working cow horse initially. While never trained for the western pleasure show pen, he was such a talented mover that his owners campaigned him in the pleasure industry where he was named Senior Western Pleasure AQHA World Champion, Senior Western Pleasure Congress Champion, as well as Western Pleasure Maturity Congress Champion. Offspring of Doc O Mos have earned over 8,300 show points and placed in AQHA Congress Top Ten. Minnie’s paternal granddam, Sharpressive, was an IBHA point earner that produced multiple IBHA World Champions and an AQHA World Show Top 10 earner in halter. Minnie’s paternal bloodlines also include Docs Malbec, a Reined Cow Horse World Champion known for his versatility and athleticism as a sire. Docs Malbec sired multiple Congress and AQHA Champions in western pleasure, reining and working cow horse, with offspring earning AQHA Superior Awards in western pleasure, team roping, calf roping, working cow horse, and tie down roping. Additional paternal bloodlines also include AQHA Hall of Fame inductees Doc Bar and Poco Tivio.

Minnie’s dam, Zip To Chip, is a 14.3 hand bay mare with a patient personality, naturally level head set, and elegant jog. Prior to her breeding career, Zip To Chip was shown locally in amateur western pleasure and showmanship. This broodmare produced a total of eight highly sought-after foals for the MU Equine Program, selling as far south as Georgia and as far north as Canada. Zip To Chip’s offspring are athletic and easy to handle. They have excelled in western pleasure, all-around events, and recreational riding. Zips Chocolate Chip, Minnie’s maternal grandsire, was an NSBA and AQHA Hall of Fame inductee and an AQHA World Champion. He was named an AQHA Leading Sire for western pleasure and performance horses, with his offspring earning over $2 million and over 44,000 AQHA points. Minnie’s maternal granddam, Blythe Impressor, had an impressive show career, earning over 180 AQHA points, two AQHA Superior Awards in western pleasure, and Heartbeat Limited Amateur Western Pleasure Sweepstakes Top Ten placing. Offspring of Blythe Impressor have earned over 315 AQHA performance points, a Superior Performance Award, and eight performance ROMs in western pleasure and all-around events. Minnie’s maternal bloodlines also include AQHA and NSBA Hall of Fame inductee Zippo Pine Bar.

Minnie has been trained by a number of students of all experience levels. She is comfortable having her face, ears, eyes, nose, body, and legs handled. Minnie is relaxed for catching, tying, grooming, spraying, and vacuuming. She confidently walks over cross rails, ground poles, and a raised wooden platform. Minnie has been introduced to a multitude of novel objects including a large bouncy ball and tarps. She also maneuvers through cones and other obstacles quietly while wearing western tack. Minnie stands for routine farrier care, vaccinations, and deworming. We are currently working to perfect clipping, lunging at the walk, trotting in hand, and loading on a step-up trailer. Minnie is routinely handled by novice students, due to her age, we recommend an experienced handler to continue her training. Like all of our horses, Minnie is up to date on all routine care including vaccinations, deworming, Coggins testing, farrier care, and dental care. Minnie is AQHA 5-panel negative for genetic diseases, as both her sire and dam have been screened and are negative.

Minnie is part of Doc O Valentino’s final foal crop, as this stallion passed in 2020. Minnie’s dam is now retired, with this filly being the final foal of her breeding career. Minnie is a gorgeous, versatile filly with endless potential as a western performance prospect. This filly’s easy-going disposition, pleasure breeding, and balanced structure are sure to make her a barn favorite. Minnie is being offered for sale in the 15th annual MU Online Horse Auction & Fundraiser with online bidding closing November 11, 2021 at 7:00 pm CST. An in-person Sale Horse Preview & Silent Auction will be held at 4400 E. New Haven Road, Columbia, MO 65211 on November 6, 2021 between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm. Buyers are encouraged to review each sale horse’s individual portfolio that includes pictures from birth to present, complete health records, journals describing each training session, and extended pedigree information (e-mail [email protected] with the horse’s name to request a digital copy). This sale is planned and produced by students in the Division of Animal Sciences, with all proceeds directly funding equine educational opportunities at the University of Missouri.

here here! If I didn’t know better from being involved with other sports, I would have believed that this is the way. NOT so!
Triathlon, swimming, cycling- cmon horse folks- can we be sportsmanlike? Everyone else gets it:) Ive been saying this for years!
Kudos to this brave author for saying what so many of us feel and take every day! cheers🍀🏆💕

Dear Horse industry,

Stop being awful.

Stop putting others down for the sake of one's own prosperity.

Stop the whispers in the warm up ring.

Stop the snarky remarks behind closed doors.

Stop with the clicks and underhanded complements.

Stop with the need for newest and latest fashions or tack sets but never riding your horse in fear they may get dirty.

Stop manipulating others words or actions.

Stop normalizing poor sportsmanship and start normalizing folks who work hard.

Chances are if you've had horses long enough you've encountered some sort of this. From the competition world, to trail riders, to rescues, to top level riders, it's everywhere and it's terrible and it's got to stop. It's got to.

I've met riders, young and old, who are petrified to ride infront of people because some where along the line, someone told them they weren't good enough. I've seen talented people quit because of gossip and I've seen people give up on what they believe in because folks made them belive they were only 1' tall.

When you see a rider kicking them selves after a bad ride, tell them great job for hanging in there and give them some tips.

When you see that girl show up in the rusty old bumperpull, know she likely put everything she had into her entry fees.

When you see an organization fighting for what they believe in, fight with them.

When you see the girl too shy to ride, ask her to help you out by hopping on to keep your horse company because it would be an awfully big help.

When you see the girl scared to death in line up remind them why they are there and they have this.

When you see the girl discouraged over progress, remind them how far they have come.

The world is full of ugliness, horses should be our escape, not a place we feel belittled. We are all incredibly blessed to have Equines in our life. Becoming better Horseman is hard enough without having folks tear you down.

Please start normalizing raising each other up.

-Erin O'Neill 🌿
