This is the only barrel horse I know of that's actually being competed on. And he's winning, and really still coming into his own. He definitely inherited the athleticism and talent Red Man Bay had. |

He's a pretty cool cat. Cant wait to see him excel with more time & experience under his belt. |

| This was back in 2014 - offspring of a cloned mare and a couple of clones that competed in NCHA before the AQHA ruling on whether they would register clones or not.
Still an interesting story - https://www.quarterhorsenews.com/2014/11/clone-offspring-entered-at-...
There are several cloned cutting stallions standing and "seemingly" producing. Royal Blue Boon Too, Copy Cat are two that come to mind right away. |

I thought RBBT was a mare. . . . |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Man, when I think back 10 years I realize just how wrong I was about cloning. I completely ignored the importance of non genetic factors that come into play in determining a finished equine athlete, like environment, training, chemistry, and nutrition. Shame on me.
I should have known better.

| I agree that environment plays a large role in phenotype and because of that, I originally thought of cloning as a tool to produce breeding stock primarily. However, after 12+ years in the field, I am continually amazed at the power of genetics and the examples across species continually demonstrate this, from polo horses to elite service dogs to bucking bulls. The science is clear on reproducing the breeding value with cloning. It is just a numbers game now. One interesting observation is that cloning has allowed a number of experimental (outcross) matings that economics would not have allowed otherwise. Just another tool in the repro box. Major shifts in perception over last few years as it has become less threatening and people see firsthand examples. Like most technologies, the adoption curve takes awhile and we all need to see to believe. |

Location: DUMPING CATS AND PIGS IN TEXAS :) | I'm not sure she would want me to mention her name on here, but there is a mare running by Scampers clone that does very well. Love watching her run.
I saw the clone of Feature Mr Jess at Jumonville Farms this year (Back to Feature) and I have to admit, I thought he'd have 3 legs and a lopsided head, but that is one fine, fine looking horse up close. I had never seen Feature Mr Jess in person, so I can't judge the similarities, but I'd have a hard time picking much over Back to Feature. I saw no flaws at all. |
