Can You Hear Me Now?

I have this filly, she was doing well in barrel training until her leg was cut badly in a paddock accident. Healed good just notice her not always 100% sound on it anymore. I can't breed her to my boy (I own her daddy) so I am looking for options. Budget is around $1000 for the stud fee. I don't care if its run, cow or barrel bred. She's fast and easy to collect back up when needed.

I would suggest something cow bred to balance out all that run.
Metallic Malice would be a great option, but I believe his books are closed for 2018, and he’s just above your budget ($1250 stud fee). He would be a good choice for 2019. He’s a nice up and coming stallion I’m excited to see progress.
I am a huge fan of Playgun and crossing his sons on run.
Fiestas Gotta Gun (Playgun x Firewater Fiesta) is a top choice, but his stud fee is $1250 also. He has some foals coming on strong in the barrel pen.
Guitar Gun (Playgun x Dainty Lena by Doc O Lena) is producing some really nice all around foals, and his fee is $800.

I like the cow bred idea some too, I used to have a grandson of Peppy San Badger and Docs Hotrodder that if I still had him she would go to no questions asked but I don't have him anymore :(. A couple of his daughters will be bred to Manny (her dad) this year. I was super excited for her and now am kinda bummed about this all so I haven't really given who to cross her on much thought. Stud fee of the $1000 is a bit flexible, I was just looking at purchasing more mares for Manny as well so it's where I would ideally like to be.
ETA: She is surprisingly a very ratey mare and for how big (mostly longer) she's very flexible.
