QUIETUDE LAMBERT MORGANS
"Of all the remaining branches of the Lambert family alive today the Lamberts at The QUIETUDE STUD have by far the largest concentration of pure Lambert blood close up in the pedigree. This is due to the diligent concern of Susan and Shannon Hanley in preserving this historic family."
Brenda Tippin / The Morgan Horse
THE QUIETUDE STUD has the richest and most concentrated source of JUBILEE KING/LAMBERT
blood to be found in the Morgan breed. We have been preserving the LAMBERT FAMILY for forty years.
"It is a tragedy that Criterion was never trained in dressage, he is as good as the best of our Lipazzaners."
Quote from the trainer and head of the American Lipazzaner Troop,as he rode Criterion at the Quietude Stud.

"And Lamberts are lovely, well-proportioned animals, solid of bone, neither coarse nor too fine, and an inch either side of fifteen hands tall. They are upheaded, long-hipped with high-set tails and so smooth of body that even in his thirties Criterion looked to be in his prime. They display an astonishing trot, long-strided and with such a pronounced period of suspension that the horse in motion seems nearly weightless. ...That light, scopey trot is making dressage and combined driving people start to take notice, but to date nearly all of the Quietude foals have gone to aspiring Lambert breeders."

QUIETUDE HIGHLAND TRACE

Two centuries after Sherman Morgan, flaxen manes and tails are common again among the Lambert,
which makes them look flashy to Morgan people used to horses in various shades of brown.

"They are often an intense dark-red chestnut, often with a blaze of uniform width and with white on the hind legs that generally cuts off neatly partwayup the cannon."

"His prominent, clear, eager eyes, set wide apart, testify to his courage and docility -- while his clean, light head, carried high, with short pointed, sensitive ears..."

"Their temperaments are so uniformly fine that Lambert breeders talk about the 'golden Lambert temperament,' that combinationof kindliness and good sense that makes these animals a breeze to train."

"And many Quietude Lamberts, especially the stallions, have a high-headed, prick-eared, heavy-maned dignity, a certain eager brilliance that makes you itch to see what they might be able to do."

"They have the clean-boned, noble heads
immortalized in old Morgan woodcuts."

CONSTANT OF QUIETUDE
|
"The first time we found the Quietude ad, we called up and talked to Susan for two hours. Going to West Virginia is like a homecoming. The horses were wonderful, and the Hanleys were so welcoming. They made us feel so much at home, now we feel we could go back and visit any time. The Hanleys will be waiting. They like nothing better than showing off their Lamberts to Morgan admirers who are coming more and more to think that what may be missing from their horses now is a little bit of old Sherman's grit and Daniel Lambert's ageless style."
Larry & Shonith Salsman of Nova Scotia,
Owners of the Criterion son Constant of Quietude

"These are clean-blooded Lamberts. Morgans whose sire line goes directly back to Sherman Morgan and Justin Morgan through Daniel Lambert and whose ancestors trace back on every branch of the pedigree to the foundation horses in Volume I of the Morgan Horse and Register and none of whose ancestors were registered under Rule 2. Criterion's pedigree has been computed and he has more than 20% of Justin Morgan's blood."
Roberta Grimes MA / The Morgan Horse / July 1995
