His sire is our big perlino stallion, Darrah's Handsome Traveler, who comes from working western bloodlines, Elsie Darrah's breeding program and the Rise and Shine program. Handsome's sire, Captain's Cream Color, was bred by Arrow's Walkers out of two Calvin Miller bred horses. Captain's Cream Color was affectionately nicknamed "Traveler" and Micki will tell you that he was her heart horse the way that his half brother, Golden Gambler, is mine. While in Micki's program, Traveler left a legacy of naturally gaited, golden walking horses with stellar dispositions. Handsome's dam, Darrah's Ivory Rose, was my dream mare. I tried to buy her from Micki when she was two, but she wouldn't sell at the time. When the time came that Micki was ready to retire, I happily brought Rosie into my breeding program. She quickly became one of Jarred's favorites due to her exceptional size, bone and movement. "She's the perfect mare for producing field trial mounts!" Rosie's dam was the cornerstone of Elsie's program, Fireball's Mountain Maid. Rosie's sire was Royal Ivory, perhaps the most well known cremello walking horse stallion of all time. Elsie wrote of Royal Ivory in her colored stallion review: "Royal Ivory is my all time favorite cremello stallion and he is a key player in my breeding program. He has it all: pedigree, color, gentle disposition, natural walking ability and good conformation. He will do anything you ask of him. He is an excellent trail riding horse and is used to pull a horse-drawn hearse in parades. He is the perfect gentleman as a breeding stallion. His foals have the same gentle disposition as their sire. If you are looking to add color, conformation, natural walking ability and personality to your foals, Royal Ivory is for you." This colt's dam, High Noon Jose was bred by Waterfall Farms in Atlanta, Georgia. She is a direct daughter of the great Jose Jose - "1999 World Grand Champion Three-Year-Old 1999 World Champion Three-Year-Old Stallion 1998 World Grand Champion Two-Year-Old 1998 World Champion Two-Year-Old Stallion What can be said by one of the greatest show horses and sires of his generation that hadn’t already been said? Jose’ Jose’ comes from the ‘Line of Kings”. He is directly descended from Midnight Sun to Pride of Midnight H.F. to Prides Generator to Gen.s Major General to Jose’ Jose’. Jose’, Major General and Generator have dominated the TWHBEA Sire of the Year Awards in close to every year it has ever been offered.

He is the Midnight Sun of the modern age. A wonderful and pleasant gentle giant, if you meet him you will fall in love with him. When only the best is good enough, it has been proven over time and time again. Jose’ Jose’ could be the greatest sire of all time.

Jose Jose's dam, Stormy's Ruby, is a direct daughter of Pride's Stormy Night. Josie's dam is unusual in that she has two lines to Mark of Carbon, sired by GLL's Carbon Copy and out of a Merry Go Boy mare. Carbon Copy was was by Roger's Perfection and out of a Midnight Sun daughter. Roger's Perfection was by Midnight Mack K. She also has Ebony's Senator (by Ebony Masterpiece) and Pride's Gold Coin breeding.
