Our Horses
"Bailey", 1999 Bay Gelding, HH Easy Bar Bailey
(Easy Jet/Johnny Dial/Pacific Bailey)
This guy is my partner in crime. He has been running now for a few years and has become extremely consistent. I do use him for occasional barrel racing lessons. He is gentle, focused, powerful, and gives me everything he has each time he runs. He loves his job and is a testament to what we do here in our training. Consistent work builds consistent horses. We are very proud of him. He wraps his barrels with a smile!
"Annie", 2004 Gray Mare, HH Zan Parr Bailey
(Zan Parr Bar/Two Eyed Jack/Mr. Gunsmoke)
This mare is 15'2. She is started on the barrels and is loping them nicely. She is kind and easy to handle. She stops, backs, pivots, sidepasses, and controls her hind and front end well. She is currently being used as one of our lesson horses and takes good care of our students.
"Kita", 1997 Sorrel Mare, Moapa Kitten
(Dash For Cash Granddaughter/Fantastic Native)
Kita is a finished barrel horse we use for advanced students. She was a 1D horse, then was semi-retired due to a fine tendon laceration. She is coming back sound after having a few years off and is coming back. We have started hauling her lightly again.
"Moose", 2005 Bay Gelding, HH First Believer
(Special Effort/Calyx/Leo/Johnny Dial)
We started Moose late, and we are taking our time training him. He is quiet, kind, and aims to please. He is coming along in his training and moves well off your leg, etc. He moves beautifully. He is started on the barrels and will be brought along slowly. He has a lot of raw talent. His dam was a 1D barrel and pole horse, was a good rope horse/ranch horse as well.
"Shrek", 2001 Bay Stallion, HH Proud Believer
(Special Effort/Dash For Cash)
Shrek is our standing stallion. We have crossed him on several Dash Ta Fame daughters and have produced some outstanding foals that are now coming of age and about to hit futurities and barrel races. He puts quality on the ground and his foals have quiet minds.
We will be standing him to approved outside mares in 2010. Call for more information.
"LeRoy", 2008 Sorrel Stallion, HH Bodacious Leroy
(Special Effort/Dash For Cash/Sugar Bars/Leo/Poco Bueno)
This is not the most beautiful colt we've raised, but he's one of our favorites. He has great feet and has good straight legs. He is smart, smart, smart! He is gentle and easy to teach. Show him once, he'll do it that way from then on. The first to meet you in the pasture, will tie up all afternoon and just cock a foot. He has been saddled, ponied, etc. He's easy to trim, loads, etc. He's a great horse in the making. Can't wait to start him!
"Kelly", 2009 Bay Filly, HH Blind Believer, name pending
(HH Proud Believer X Moapa Kitten)
This is one great looking little filly. She is out of Kita, my barrel mare listed above. If we could push a button and make this filly 3, we'd do it! Can't wait to see what she becomes. She's a very nice prospect and built just right. She's friendly, gentle, inquisitive, and just a little spunky.
"Indy", 2009 Sorrel Stallion, name pending
(HH Proud Believer X No Shame Ta Fame)
One nice little studcolt! Very kind and easy to work with. He is extremely correct and has a great topline on him. Good feet too!
This little colt is also a fantastic barrel prospect with his build and bloodlines.
"Roanie", 1996 Roan Gelding, JBT Lucky Diamond
(Twin Profit/Doc Bar/Redwood Echols)
Roanie is the backbone of our lesson program. He has helped us teach many people to ride. He is a tad on the lazy side, but speeds up when asked. He knows who's riding him. Holly uses him for sorting and he will turn on when asked! Students who watch can't believe it's the same horse they ride for lessons! He was a heel horse when we bought him, but we've taught him the barrel and pole patterns so we could use him for our lessons. He belongs to Holly's son, Douglas, but he is generous to share him with everyone. He is a super handy horse. We wish we had 10 of him. He is priceless and is a permanent fixture here. We love our Roanie Pony!
"Solomon" 2005 dk bay gelding
Thoroughbred Former Racehorse
Solomon is a special boy that came to us in April 2010. He has had little previous training and is being brought along slowly. He is a wonderful soul and has already endeared himself to us. He will get to do whatever he ends up being good at! He will be exposed to cows, jumps, and the barrel pattern as his training progresses. Read more about Solomon's story on his FB page, Buddy MC
