Hy Crest Satina. The Morgan Horse Magazine. Jan-Feb 1984

Photo above from TMH, from before Carol Guay owned her. 

Photo below from the AllBreed site, showing her as a well aged mare when owned by Carol Guay. 

Satina had 4 gray foals from her 10 total foals. The first two were from before Carol owned her and were gelded. 

In the very late 1980's, I was researching an article for TMH about gray Morgans. I had a list of all the living gray Morgans in the breed from AMHA (and that was a very short list). I heard back from the owner of one of Satina's geldings and from Carol Guay who was amazed that she had the last traceable breeding age gray. (Much later, the other breeding age gray mare was found.) So Carol bred Satina some more and got two gray colts who have bred on and today, most gray Morgans trace back to them: CW's Sterling Silver and CW's Silver Ash. 

Looking at Satina's pedigree one can see that the gray color came from a mare, listed only as Gray Remount mare. bred by the US Livestock Experiment Station in Miles City, MT who was out of a Richard Sellman mare and sired by a gray Arabian. That mare was bred to Monterey, a Gov't Farm stallion from Vermont, and produced the mare Babe who was never registered. Babe was bred to Beaujeau who was bred by Helen Greenwalt and sired by Highview King and out of a LU Sheep Co. mare. This produced Lady Satin, who was bred and lived in Michigan. Finally, Lady Satin, now owned by Richard Measel, was bred to Hy Crest Koko and produced Hy Crest Satina. 

Satina had a good, solid pedigree. And now we still have grays in the breed.

He had quite a lot of Lippitt and Old Vermont High Percent behind him, as well as some Brunk. His great grand sire, Starfire, is Western Working Family with a lot of Brunk behind it. 

I remember him as a typey, little fellow with a lot of personality and energy.
