| Awesome!! Glad this was posted :) So seeing another Dr Nick Bar horse has me wondering...Dr Nick Bar was bought for Fallon right after his futurity career is that right? So he wasn't bred til later, and by the Taylor's or do I have this all wrong? |

Those Wonders Otoes are or were pretty dang popular in Florida and the SE part of the country. I remember for years at the BFA you'd see someone from Florida smoke a run and they were usually on one of those! I would not consider Cowboy's pedigree to be an unknown one. |

   Location: Cocoa, Florida | Wow lots of older foundation breeding in those NFR horses, lots of doc bar and Leo close up still.
My vote will be for bass of course since I'm a FL girl and the Packin Sixes horse Christine has naturally ;) |

There you have it...for those that say you can't ride papers I would say most of those horses are what I call "Name Brand Bred".
I ride PAPERS!!!!!!! |

Not unknown, but not name brand either. I know about Wonder Otoe, but have never heard of Cowboy's actual sire. There are a lot of great stallions that are very well known regionally that way. |

I didn't either, until I watched a segment about her on WPRA Today. She seems like an all around cowgirl! |
