Location: Tulsa, Ok | I had a son of Rare Form out of a straight thoroughbred mare that came off the track. He was the smartest, most honest and willing to please horse I ever had the pleasure to own/ride.

Location: Ferris, TX | The 2 that I've been around were full brothers, can't remember how the mare was bred but all her babies did well at the track and made nice barrel horses. The brothers were very athletic and fast. Took to the barrels quickly. They did NOT like to be practiced on, they didn't need it. |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | I've got a 3 year old granddaughter. She is extremely kind, very intelligent, and a pleaser, but flunked out of her first 30 days getting broke due to ground issues-- she never did anything bad being ridden, but wasn't relaxed and happy there either. Totally unexpected and completely out of character for what she has shown me at home, and when I've hauled her since then. I'm going to try sending her to someone different to put some slow quiet miles on her, just haven't found the right person. She's not one you pressure into doing things-- you ask and let her think it through and she will try to do what was asked. Once she figures something out, she does it without hesitation. I raised her and didn't really realize I handled her differently until the trainer had problems with her. I always thought of her as easy to handle and train.
I had another one by the same Rare Form son that was very sensitive with a tendency to be hot, but super athletic and quick. She too was very kind, but had the same trait of you ask and let her think it through. If you picked and pressured, she would get upset. |

Location: Texas | I have a granddaughter. She is by Strawflyin Buds out of a Rare Form mare. I absolutely love her. Most talented horse I have ever ridden. We won four barrel races last year, two by 4 tenths, one my 2 tenths.. and then we were second in the 1D at a big jackpot where there were only 3 in the 1D. She won 4th in the 2D at the ANHA shootout this year running a 17.3 on a standard pattern and it was our first big show together. She is a super cool mare. I am going to breed her in 2016 and I can't wait!

Location: South TEXAS | had a own daughter out of a Beduino daughter... she would bring tears to your eyes sprinting. was super fast and big bodied. very sweet on the ground but was a little hot on pattern(I'm blaming that on her previous owner and training). |
