Location: Kentucky | I saw this picture on FB and thought it was really neat. This is Slash J Harletta (with little FWF pictured beside her). Also the dam of LHDI. This mare was a powerhouse. There's a lot of barrel racing history in this photo.

She was also the dam of I Got Bugs by Bugs Alive in 75 who was quite a barrel horse. There are other performers out of her that I can't think of just now. Here's another pic of her and Celie I stole off facebook

She was a hell of a producer. |

Good article. There is an error though. Harletta is not the only NFR qualifier to produce an NFR qualifier or multiple qualifiers. The article may have been written earlier, but the publishing date was May of 2014. Dynas Plain Special is the dam of JL Dash Ta Heaven and Frosty Feelins. Flowers And Money dam of Flos Heiress. Blazin Jet Olena sire of Sheza Blazin Move. PC Frenchmans Hayday sire of MP Meter My Hay, MP A Man With Roses and MP Quick Money. Edited by 3 To Go 2015-06-03 2:05 PM

Are you on a phone or computer? I wonder if you went to Speedhorse.com and searched Slash J Harletta if it would come up? |

Location: Arkansas | There are 8 volumes of "Legends: Outstanding Quarter Horse Stallions and Mares". Wonderful books, along the lines of what you're talking about. Not just barrel racing, but so much history on the "old" horses!!! |

I have them , and love them all. But I'm wanting something from then to present we have so many horses doing great things that go back to these fabulous mares and studs. Maybe some personal stories, and memories. |

| WHEN YOU MENTION ALL THE HORSES THAT QUALIFIED, AND PRODUCED MULTIPLE QUALIFIERS MIGHT WANT TO DOUBLE CHECK FACTS, AS SEVERAL YOU MENTIONED DID NOT QUALIFY AS A INDIVIDUAL WITH THEIR WINNINGS ALONE. BLAZIN JETOLENA FOR EXAMPLE DID NOT QUALIFY FOR NFR, AS HE WAS RAN THERE. |
