Bar Pat Nell Stormy Invitation

Click on her photo to view extended pedigree.

Bar Pat Nell (aka "Nellie") is a 1996 chestnut near leopard.  Nellie is a National Champion in Most Colorful at Halter.  She also has her Superior in Open Halter Mares and Most Colorful at Halter.  She has a total of 296 1/2 Halter points.  Nellie won her National Championship as a 3 year old.  I was so pleased as I had fit her for the show myself.  After 4 years of showing, primarily at shows in our area, Nellie was tired of it.  She is now retired from the show ring and is a wonderful broodmare.  Nellie has a wonderful disposition and personality.  She loves kisses from Larry and loves attention from everyone.

Nellie's sire is Trivial Pursuit by Rimwold's Prince Paul.  Nellie's dam is Impressive Nancy by Impressive (AQHA). 

**Nellie's 2006 colored colt, Touchdown Kids MVP (aka "Rocket"), by Winning Touchdown (see photo on Reference Sire page) by Touchdown Kid (AQHA) is being offered for sale.  Rocket should be an outstanding halter and stallion prospect.  Very nice colt!  HYPP N/N.

Spurs and Roses Stormin Nu Jesse

Click on photo to view her extended pedigree.

Spurs and Roses (aka "Rose") is a 1994 non characteristic dark bay appaloosa mare.  This photo does not do her justice at all.  Rose is very well built and very classy!  When Larry brought Rose home, I did not want her.  In fact, I could not believe he even bought her.  Rose was very poor and had a horrible skin condition.  But with a good worming program, iodine baths, and good groceries, she became a very, very nice looking mare.  Rose is super athletic and very friendly.  She loves having TLC.

Rose's sire is Mighty Skipa Lena by Ima Little Lena.  Rose's dam is Duro Palo (AQHA) by Won Strawberry Boss.

**Rose is bred to Special Report for a 2008 foal.** 

Sadly. we lost this fabulous mare January 20, 2006 to complications with pleuritis.  See photos of her get, Ima Nu Report and Snips Last Report.  She will be greatly missed!!

Fox Above (aka "Frosty") is a 1990 appendix registered buckskin quarter horse.  Frosty is beautiful! 

Frosty is another one of our performance bred quarter horse mares that we breed to Special Report.  However, her bloodline indicates that she was bred for speed. 

Frosty's sire, Above All Rulers, is a thoroughbred sired by Above the Law, by Bold Ruler.  Bold Ruler is the sire of the great race horse, Secretariat.  Frosty's dam is Smilin Fox by Tiny's Gay.  Tiny's Gay (AAA+, SI 106) is a premier barrel horse sire.  He set track record at Sun Downs for 300 yards at 15.44 seconds that stood for 18 years.  He almost became a rare Quarter horse Triple Crown winner (missed by a head).  He was the 1974 World Champion; 1974 World Champion 2 year old colt; 1974 World Champion Horse; 1974 earned Race ROM. 

**Frosty is bred to TAMU Nu Bar Ray (AQHA) for a 2008 foal.**

Sans Jo Royal Rita (aka "Rita") is a 1989 sorrel quarter horse.  The photo shows her with winter hair and does not do this mare justice.  Rita was the very first performance bred quarter horse that we purchased to breed to Special Report.  She is broke to ride and has been used for trail riding, drill teams, parades, etc.  She is awesome!

Rita has some of the all time GREAT quarter horses such as Doc Jensen, Doc Bar, Tasa Tivio (by Poco Tivio), Hollywood Gold, Mr. San Caz, Mr. San Peppy, and Joe's Last on the front of her papers.  Many are featured in Legends books put out by Western Horseman.  Rita was bred to be a working horse.

Sadly, we lost Jetta's mother, Neutron's Miss (see photo on Photo Page), when Jetta was only two months old.  We lost her mother due to a substance that was in our oats that was manufactured by a major feed company.  We miss Neutron Miss greatly!  She was an awesome mare.

Neutron's Miss was a dark bay (near black) n/c appaloosa mare sired by Neutron.  Her dam was Ima Straw Bonanza.  Neutron's Miss was the 1997 Grand Champion at the National Western Stock Show and the 1997 Colorado Champion of Champions.
