Janet and her family have been breeding Quarter Horses for over 25 years. Below are some of the quotes and articles in years past from and pertaining to these fine horses...
"Newton Quarter Horses is moving in a direction most breeders only dream about. She is producing a line of winners whose popularity is spreading throughout North America." Janet's trademark name of "Winken" has made its way to the tip of the judges cards in shows and circuits throughout the United States, the AJQHA World Championship Show the Canadian Nationals and at the Congress," Northern Horse Review. 93'
"Without Janet's tenacity, Lucky Wayne would probably have been just another stallion out of many. Her constant support, encouragement and focus on Lucky Wayne and his get made her the Leading Breeder of Performance Horses for Montana eight years in a row, and also a leading breeder in the Nation, an unprecedented accomplishment. Just this year (97) Lucky Wayne was named one of the Top Ten Sires of Hunt seat horses in America." Northern Horse Review 97
They Steal the show.... they win our heart.... we call them the "The Winkens."
Lucky Wayne, an elegant, big seal brown stallion with a look and lope to die for, came to lie with Janet in January 1978 in Glasgow, Montana. He stood at stud there his entire life.
He was a proponent stallion, stamping his foals, bay, brown or black, with that great lope.
Lucky Wayne and his get made Janet the leading breeder of Performance Horses in Montana for eight years in a row and also a leading Breeder in the Nation. Just this year (1997) Lucky Wayne was named one of the top 10 Hunt Seat Horses in the Nation. Montana Horseman's Journal Dec. 1997
