You can't go wrong with a good Peptoboonsmal or High Brow Cat ... those lines consistently throw athletic, sound, good feet/legs, and fabulous minds. These horses are showing in many different pens with consistent wins.
My filly is Pepto on the top and Two Eyed Jack on the bottom. Big, smooth, and SOUND with color and a great mind. I'd have a whole barn full. |

I agree 100%!!!! The ones I've ridden, I've fallen in love with. I don't have the $$$ to spend on them since the price tag is normally triple what I can afford LOL.
The stallion is a sorrel, and my mare is a blue roan....I'm hoping I'll get some color! |

Just out of curosity, why do you stay away from Hancock bred horses?
Genunine Doc and Docs Superstar Bar horses have proven to be good ones. |

Couldnt agree more! I ran two docs prescription grandbabies and both were phenominal and proved themselves well in the AQHA and rodeo scenes in the 90s. A offspring of one mentioed ones AQHA world and congress. She was docs prescription x organ grinder (peppy san) bred. |

From what I have seen, rode, and heard, for best results if you are going to cross race on cow for a barrel prospect, breed a race bred mare to a cow bred stud. |

Interesting read. My colt has similar breeding to Diane's horse referenced in the article on his bottom side and Mighty Mouse on his top. May be when he can breath this year he will show me he can get it too! |

Location: USA | I have 1 cowbred mare and she is very consistent making 3D times with only a year of training and a handful of hauling. And she's very nicely built with a nice front and back end on her. She has two-eyed Jack and Jackie Bee top and bottom and everyone gives me complements on her. Vey well minded horse and great all around. I've beaten top notch western pleasure horses at some of our big local shows and she's my barrel horse. The western pleasure people always say barrel horses are crazy but I show them that not all of them are it's just the way their trained and she's knows the difference between a run and a horse show. She's bred this year so can't wait to see how the baby turns out. Should be born the first part of December.  |

I have a 5 yr old full sister to one of the Fletch mares you're talking about. Our little mare "Hotbox" looks just like "Ditto". They are super fun little horses. We love Royal Fletch and you can breed a Docs Stylish Oak mare to just about anything and get a nice colt. |

For me, Docs Jack Frost is a "What Could Have Been" kind of story. Stanley Johnston sold him to a syndicate in the early 80's---if he had lived out his whole life under Johnstons care, with the mare power he had, the sky could have been the limit. He is still a great one but I think he could have even been bigger. |

Location: Oklahoma | I grew up riding cow or ranch bred horses but somewhere along the line, got away from them. Well, I'm back. I just lost a 5 year old who was Blue Valentine on top and Driftwood (Drifts Chip) on bottom. He reminded me why I love that type of horse. I just bought a 3 year old to start who is Dash For Perks and Sunfrost on top and Freckles Playboy, Doc Bar (Docs Last Chance) and King Glo on bottom. After just a handful of rides, I love him. Very smart, trainable, quick footed and willing. I'm excited to see what he will be. |

| I am going to say that I had a Peptoboonsmal grandgit-was a good horse, but was SLOW and took a while to come on.
Her heart was not really with running, but boy did she LOVE to turn. If I knew anything about cows I would have made her a cutter because I feel like she really had a natural ability for that.
I probably would not go for another Peptoboonsmal, but would go for a Reminic or Peppy San Badger. I had some luck with those cow lines with my first barrel horse. She ended up being a great youth/beginner barrel horse and that was what we sold her as. |

| Love my 3 year old filly by Bucks Hancock Dude. Bought her six months ago, and everything about her has impressed me. She is so calm and patient. Knowing that I am going to saddle and work her past a sweat, she will still run from the front pasture when she sees me at the gate with her halter. Will she make a great barrel horse? Who knows! |

| The Gelding im running now is all cow
On the top he is a grandson of peppysan badger and down the line Doc o'lena
the mare is all Foundation, on her papers she has King and Wimpy, and just off her papers one generation she has Leo
He is a pretty cool horse, Gritty, But can be on the lazy side. But I also own his Full Brother and he is the Complete opposite, Im just getting him going and he is alot of work tho, but once it all comes together he should finish out really cool!
They definatly eat up the barrels! I have a harder time getting them by them than running past! |

Genunine Doc and Docs Superstar Bar horses have proven to be good ones.
But don't get me wrong.....my jaw will still drop for hancock bred horse if they are shapey and a roan!!! |

Part of why I bought a filly out of a Doc O Dynamite daughter, she is also by a Dual Peppy/Mr Gunsmoke stud who has sired some nice barrel horses around here.

I've got a mare like this. Haven't started her because of so many outsides coming in and I got a Doc Olena bred gelding that was taller I personally liked.
Docs skipped remedy is her name ( allbreed). |

Some of our local shows in this area pay out very well and they are also not recorded. I won over $1200 at one local show last fall on one of my mares that was not recorded by EquiStat so that's a real bummer when it comes to try to document earnings.

I have to ask, who did you buy her from? Sounds like a pedigree that came across my place and we dont live far apart. I think cutters can be barrel horses. I have a Docs Stylish Oak/Smart Little Lena gelding that is pretty Dynamic. His second time entered at an ameture rodeo he clocked in the middle of the pack. If they have the look good chances are they can do it :) |

Location: Feeding mosquitos, FL | I just crossed over to the dark side myself. I've been riding a three year old cowbred gelding for the last couple of months and have fallen head over heels. He is smart without being too smart, easy to train, easy to live with, athletic and patterned in about six rides. I actually started teaching him poles and trail obstacles since he patterned so quickly and easily. Might have to start on reining patterns next.
He's Young Gun, Docs Prescription and Vibrant Chex. I'd take a barn full. |

| My breeding program through the last twenty years has evolved from straight race breeds to race/cow cross to straight cowbreds. While I loved to watch the little straight run colts stretch their legs and play, they lacked any noticeable amount of common sense for everyday occurrences like shots, worming, halter breaking and loading in the trailer. However, they were fast, just frustrating sometimes. The crossbreds were a little more sensible, but not that much, probably due to the running bred mares as mothers, even though they were all old track horses and easy to handle. When I was not running barrels much anymore, i decided to sell the running breds and only keep the cowbreds, the majority of which were NCHA money winners. They are daughters of Miss N Cash, Docs Hickory, Tanquery Gin, Haidas Little Pep, High Brow Hickory, and Colonel Freckles granddaughters. They are bred to my old son of Freckles Playboy. Given that I am probably biased, I have never had such good looking, good minded, athletic, quick, friendly, joyful, fun to watch colts in my life. They might not be able to outrun some of the straight runs on a straight away, but I can guarantee they will outmaneuver them in tighter spaces, and you will have a horse that you can do more things on than just run barrels. In the big picture of things, most barrel racers are not going to run in the 1D, which is why we have at least 3 more D's. My opinion is that a good quick cow bred will give the average barrel racer more joy and options than a straight run, be easier to train, and still get you to the pay window. |

I was running a daughter of Dun It With A Whiz by Hollywood Dun It I only have about 30 runs on her but she was running 1D times in bigger races here 100 plus horses. She is so athletic and pretty fast for a short squatty bodied mare. She can run a standard but excels at a slightly smaller set. She got hurt but I think she was going to be fairly tough little horse, we ran less than .5 off some nice circuit and pro horses . She is being bred to a son of Special Leader now since I can't figure out what is wrong with her. I would ride another. |

Location: Ohio | I got my first cutting bred colt started and am pretty pleased with him. He is double bred Docs Prescription on top with Peppy San Badger, Dry Doc and Mr Gun Smoke on the bottom. All are within 3 generations on his papers. He has a nice gas pedal and a lot of brains, natural when it comes to working off leg pressure and just a super nice colt in general. Big boned but on the short side... slow grower for sure! I would love to get my hands on another horse with these lines but with some running bred lines mixed in for height. Not sure I like being that close to the ground when riding lol |

TwistedK - 2015-03-26 9:36 AM I really like the foundation breds... I really like Lone Drifter on Sun Frost.... goes back to Docs Jack Frost/Driftwood Ike. Smart horses that excel in many arenas and can handle the pressure of multiple events.
OH GRASSHOPPER----I have taught you well. LOL
absolutely..... I blame you.... but in the best way possible!!! |

Location: Florida | We have a Doc stud & my barrel mare is a Poco bred horse :) Her registered name is Poco Tari's Beauty, and let me tell you, she's not super easy to ride, you can't just sit up there and lob along, you have to RIDE. but MAN she can fly, AND any time we work cows or ride out in the pasture she will watch a cow. She LOVES to hate a cow. lol She's cow bred on both sides but she's catty, put together & sits down and snaps around them :) But like I said, she's definitely not an easy rider/keeper. Low maintenance overall, but SASSY. |

Location: kansas | I have a Grays Starlight/ Blue Duck Okie that is no bigger than a pony, literally.... She isn't even 14 hands tall that just won a barrel race with 86 entered by .2. She does everything so effortlessly that I just hold on!
I bought her from a horse sale as a reject cutter February of her 3 year old year and turned her out until September of her 4 year old year and by December she was running bottom of the 1D, and that was without any pushing at all, like she MAYBE went around the barrel 4 days a week a few times a night. She was so broke I showed her what to do and she did it, including when it came to picking her speed! Lol. It literally becomes a 'watch this mom' when I run her, so literally I hang on and she does it! LOVE LOVE LOVE her, and she has a personality to go along right with it! |

Can I get some "cow lines" that have proven themselves in barrels?
