  Location: Illinois | Anyone know of any King Fritz/Doc Bar bred barrel horses? I know the line has a list of cow horse and pleasure horses for miles, but I'm interested in the line as barrel horses. I have seen two bred that way, one 1D and one 4D but can't seem to find anything else. I have one bred very close to the 1D horse's lines. If anyone knows any info on these lines please share!! Thanks |

      Location: West Texas | I am a King Fritz fan. They cross well on Doc Bars for sure. They also cross well on running breeding, in the right combination. We currently have a King Fritz bred stallion that we are crossing on some barrel horses.
Personally for barrels, I would think a little running blood would be a good thing. Otherwise, it would be a horse by horse basis. Some can really run and some don't quite have it. Speed would be the only issue, as they will should have plenty of power to them.

  Location: Illinois | He's paint on the bottom side and I'm not very familiar with paint lines so I'm having to do a lot of research on him |

| I have a Doc Bar gelding. Grandson of Doc Olena and Rey Jey a little back on Dams side but all cow bred. He's so willing, smart, very quick and can move his body unbelievable. Someone else could probably run him in the 2D or 1D but he is so smart he feels me and takes good care of me. I'm a little slow :) This is my horse, I feel like he knows me and I know him like the back of my hand. I feel like we communicate better then me and my hubby :) |

I have this guy. I got him as 5 month old and had him until he was starting his 3 year old year. He was always a higher strung horse, but he would take a saddle, bridle, be ponied, etc. I sold him and then got him back a year later completely scared of people, and I don't know what happened only rumors. Very fragile mind. His mom (who I also own) isn't like that at all. He's a conformational train wreck too. |

  Location: Illinois | Mine is a May baby so he's still young. Easiest colt I've ever dealt with. Learns crazy fast. Halter broke completely in under 20 minutes, learned to tie in 30 seconds, learned to lunge in 2 circles, loads like a pro after 3 tries. Not afraid or bothered by anything. I've heard they're slow maturers mentally but he's been super super easy and he's smart. You just don't see this cross in the barrel pen. |
