 So, I guess I have to exception to the rule then... this little mare will go in and give me a nice run, but she is by far the laziest horse I have been on in 2 decades!! Outside the race (yes she knows the difference, very smart!!) she will not move a muscle unless you really get after her.... lol, she is my turtle... 
Planning on breeding her to a stud with SI of 116.... maybe that will help...

I'm looking at something who's race on top and out of a granddaughter of smart chic o lena on the bottom… I talked to my reining friend and she said the particular stud the fillys dam is by throws really good reiners- IE lazy, head down, super easy to train. LOL. She said lazy like it was a good thing. I was like well, add some run in the mix and maybe this one won't be lazy!

I personally like my cowbreds out of a race mare with a cowbred stud, because the run typically comes from the maternal line if we're talking geldings, which is what I ride. I, too, prefer the Doc Bar lines if I'm going to have cow crossed on run. Not too fond of the others. Here's the pedigrees on the two cow/run crosses I've owned that were top 1D horses: www.allbreedpedigree.com/special+joe+bars and www.allbreedpedigree/rq+dox+honor

I prefer the run on the bottom as well but this is kind of an unplanned chance occurrence with a horse that's already born, so I guess it's what I've got to work with! Not that the breeding was unplanned, it's just that we're not looking it and it kind of fell in our laps.

I just love my Doc O'Lena bred horses.  I am currently riding 3 of them and have had several in the past.  They have been smart, willing, horses with a lot of talent.

 THis little mare is cowbred on top and bottom. Can't do too much about that. But maybe I can introduce some speed to her.  
She kinda fell into my lap for a backup horse, just to be able to jump on and have fun. Which so far she has done.
One good thing about her being a turtle is that I can put my nonhorsey husband on her and she wont do anything crazy!
