I was running a mare by Dun It With A Whiz x Hollywood Dun It . She had been started as a reiner then started on barrels and was running in the 1D in less than 5 runs even at bigger 300 plus races. She had an injury or some kind we never found so I bred her last year but thinking we will put her back to work and see how she feels.

Lack heart.....from my experiences.....even on the ranch they will quite you ....good looking horses tho ....it would depend greatly on who they we're crossed with.....perhaps a rebel cause or top moon horse ....possible Sunfrost as they tend to be more go getter from my experience...

She is crossed with a two eyed jack dam.
My two eyed jack gelding is phenomenal, he is smart and has a huge heart super honest and always tries. But he's rugged lark on bottom so it could be his traits?

My mare would kill herself working as is so gritty and tough. She can clock as well especially considering she is about 14.2 and nearly as wide. I do know that in the reining they tend to be youth and novice type horses because they are easy. My mare is the exception maybe she is a nut but I love her.

There is a nice gelding around here. He is little with a big build. Fast little sucker, but he is straight up blown up! That boy had a lot of natural ability, but went through too many hands of the wrong people. They pushed and pushed until he is mind was gone. Its really sad.

This! We started a few grand gets on the top side. They were all pigs. We kept a really good looking mare in hopes of making her a head/heel horse. She got ****y one run started to buck balled up in the arena corner and knocked my husband's front teeth out. She couldn't handle pressure or work. She made an amazing trail horse though. She now packs an 84 year old grandma on the trail every couple months and likes her job.

I got to ride one grandson.... He was SO much fun! I didn't own him and just got to season/run him for a short time, he sold really fast. Very pretty, very easy to get along with. Clocked in the 2D with ease.

I've ridden a couple, and own one now. Some have been tiny and fine boned and others massive.
Mine is a reiner though.....he has navicular so I don't know if he could run or not and I won't be trying to find out. He has the neatest personality of any horse I've owned and I've had more than a few. The folks that own his sire say all of the babies have been that way.
