Nobody else had a Johnny Dial?
Nothing wrong with Johnny Dial. His kin were pretty hard to beat.
I had a friend w a Johnny dial. He was not scared to cream a barrel. I'm going to put a lot on the rider there but think it was an inherited habit he picked up also. Now when he was clean he got a check. |

Lots of good barrel horses with him in the pedigree. We had a grandson in the late 70's when I was just a kid. He could run, my gosh he could run. Unfortunately had stifle problems
We had a granddaughter. She is actually still kicking at 30 something. Excellent rodeo horse. Could run in any ground. Even sloppy mud. We ran her at a rodeo that was pure yuck. Most girls cantered through. Maggie ran so hard the mud pulled her splint boots off. And she loved a crowd that cheered for her. Never a barrel hitter. In the 10yrs we ran her she never hit a barrel. She loved poles. Would knock one occasionally but man did she love to run them. She was the only one we ever heard of with her breeding |

My husbands family had one and rodeoed on her as kids. She won a ton. She also had Flaming Jet I think. |

| As you have noticed the older bloodlines in a given area are the ones each of us knew
prior to 1990. The known barrel racers were WPRA members and competed in the
larger rodeos in a given area... very seldom did their horse get to be well known even at a local level.
The first barrel bloodlines I became aware of in the early 1960's were the OKLAHOMA STAR JR. horses thanks to JANE MAYO and her horse V'S SANDY by Oklahoma Star Jr. and out of a daughter of Bert.
For the next 10++ years Oklahoma Star Jr bred horses were in big demand in Oklahoma and half of Texas by barrel racers.
JANE MAYO

V'S SANDY
http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/vs+sandy
In the 1970-80-90's ... several bloodlines began to show domination in different parts of the USA .. and became known due to one rodeo star barrel racer and their domination of major rodeos like the NFR when it was in Oklahoma City. This brought new focus on bloodlines that most people had never heard of before.
AREA BLOODLINES THAT DOMINATED DIFFERENT STATES//PARTS OF THE USA
NORTHWEST STATES, IDAHO, UTAH AND NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
BIANKUS HORSES DOMINATED and JET OF HONOR started the race bloodlines into
barrel horses.
MONTANA, WYOMING, SD, ND and same down in Arizona
SUNFROST, FRENCHMAN QUARTER HORSES, (before FG) and roping horses that would not rate with Driftwood and Hancock bloodlines
OKLAHOMA AND TEXAS ..
OKLAHOMA STAR JR horses, LEO bred horses, and then JET OF HONOR came to Oklahoma and his stud fee started at $250 then increased to $500 which barrel racers could afford.
Immediately girls began to steal their daddy's race track horses instead of their roping horses to run barrels. Anything with JET DECK, EASY JET, or that had JET in their name became desired as barrel horses. Many of your famous barrel racers started with handmedown horses that they trained and made a name for themselves!! (Firewater Flit came later)
FLORIDA SOUTHERN STATES
OTOE WONDER, WONDER OTOE, GO DICK GO (no kin to Go Man Go) and then along came ON YOUR MONEY RED to crossover on these bloodlines to dominate most of the southern and east coasts.
What was interesting was in Texas the famous sire OTOE was considered to be a cutting horse that had no running speed ... What would you pay to breed to this guy today??

MINNESOTA, IOWA, OHIO, INDIANA
The barrel racers kept what they were doing totally frozen ...
and the world thought of these states as corn growers, beef and pork feeders
and reining horses.
We have all become so internet involved that we forget that it never become a
a part of our lives until AFTER 2000....
NOW we are all pedigree savvy due to better rodeo announcers, barrel associations, high purses and of course the NET!!
prior the internet was being invented by Tim Berners-Lee who invented the WWW (World Wide Web) to send messages between large companies and universities ... the first picture was sent in 1992 while he was working at CERN in Europe and these ladies were singers at a local hotel ..
ENJOY
