Merriewold Jesse James

(Santa Fe Renegade x MLF Emotion)

2007 Chestnut Gelding

Merriewold Jesse James attracts attention with his beautiful copper color, smooth lines, and good size and substance. He is now in his second year of training and showing with Kasey and Melissa Monty. In his first year he went to Nationals and finished in the top ten in all their classes including the Western Pleasure Ladies Championship. This year (2013) he has developed into a true Champion taking home the tri-colors at every show!

Jesse has a playful, people-friendly personality. His physical beauty comes from both sides of his pedigree as both sire and dam have his long neck, huge eyes and refined head. His sire Santa Fe Renegade is a 3 time Western Pleasure World Champion and Cowboy Dressage Partner. And his dam MLF Emotion is an AMHA and USEF Regional Champion in Western Pleasure and Dressage.

Jesse started his training with Jackie Brittain and made his show debut at the Santa Barbara Regional show in the Two Year old 'In Hand' class. He is a quality individual with a wonderful disposition and a good start in his show career.
