Mochas Living Legend

A tribute to Mocha’s Living Legend, written by Kaitlyn Fisher:
Mocha was my heart horse, the love of my life horse, my everything horse. I’ve known and loved her for eighteen years. She was my first horse, officially signed to my name in 2021. But before that, she was my father’s horse.
Fred Fisher bought a Quarter Horse sight unseen in 2003. A Quarter Horse hours away, in Oregon, who had never seen the hot Arizona sun. A Quarter Horse who was two years old and barely halter broke.
He made that Quarter Horse into the best mare any girl could have ever asked for.
Fred entered Mocha in his very first AQHA show over 20 years ago. And they won. First place, to a name nobody recognized.
When Light Rein, LLC was created, Mocha was the base of it. She has watched it grow and change into the amazing lifestyle of Fred’s dreams. She, and many other horses since, have made him into the AQHA Professional Horseman we all now know and love.
Now, in 2025, Mocha rests her head at the age of 24. She has been very loved her entire life. She retired early, due to lameness and other health issues, but I (Kaitlyn) was right there to support her.
Mocha had a foal, Oakley, who showed promising potential in ranch events. Mocha also helped raise many other foals from the Light Rein barn.
She also raised me. She taught me everything I know about horses, gave me my passion for them, supported me throughout my entire childhood, and lived to watch me graduate from high school. I’m so unbelievably thankful for this saint of a horse. I love her with my whole heart.
Fly high, Mocha. We love you 🫶🏼🕊️
