| I am so excited, I am going to a sale soon, and have been trying to find my next project horse. Based on bloodlines alone, which are your favorite. Looking for a barrel prospect, and just an all around performance horse. I may work with it for a couple years, and then sell it, so I want good bloodlines to help with the resale value. Please put them in order from best to worst. Thanks!

Location: Montana | Of the choices you put out there, here is the order I would put them in from favorite to least favorite on bloodlines alone (on the list, for me 3 and 4 would be interchangeable depending on how I liked the horse and how he looked):

Location: Where I am happiest | My husband used to own Smart Lil Whiz. That is a colt who fell through the crack due to no fault of his own.We sold him as a just turning 2 , and ended up reposessing him winter of his 3 yr old year. He should have went to the snaffle bit futurity, he was that talented. My husband still regrets selling that colt.
I came back to add. I just typed his name into google and watched a video. Looks like they had the kids riding him and he came dull and unbroke but I dont doubt the talent he had, he was born with and is still there underneith it all.

Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | On the second one, Stallion... Perks Firewater Flit belongs to a board buddy on here. I cant remember her name right off..  Ok I was thinking hard but I think her name is Chelsea Tanner maybe, but I think she got married and living in OK now adays. I'm thinking her board name is Circle C, but I could be wrong

Location: Gainesville, TX | To me in quality, #1 & #2 are the best, esp. if you are thinking resale. I'm not a huge fan of the bottom side of #2 but PFF is a solid barrel sire. The Hollywood Dun It on #1 had me jazzed but that one has a lot of nice foundation lines up close top and bottom. Honestly, even though I prefer running blood, that's probably the one I'd be taking home, Smartlilwhiz.
The rest of them, esp 3 & 5, meh. |

Those are my top 3 as well, based on pedigree. I would look at the actual horses before ranking them tho. The last 2, I wouldn't look at. The one with Jessie James twice fairly close on the top side would make me run due the possibility of being a bucker. LOL |
