Barrel Horse Bloodlines in the Pacific Northwest

Barrel Racing Stallion, Verily Sixes
Verily Sixes, Future Fortunes and AQHA Incentive Fund Stallion

We raise and train horses specifically for barrel racing and pole bending, utilizing barrel horse bloodlines of proven producers of money-winning barrel racing and pole bending horses on both sides of the pedigree.

At this site you will be introduced to these horses with lots of top quality photography by R.Jeanne. We will explain why we feel so strongly that these bloodlines produce winners, and we will introduce you to the great horses of the past and present that have contributed to our program.

Don't miss our red roan stallion, Verily Sixes That's him in the photo (pronounced vare-ily). His bloodlines are eye-popping! An own son of Packin Sixes (Streakin Six), and out of an own daughter of On The Money Red! He will stand to more outside mares in 2008.


FLASH!  Verily Sixes' first offspring to reach competition age had an exceptional year of competition as a four year old! This Verily Sixes offspring received three (3) awards from the American Quarter Horse Association at the end of that first year of competition:

4th place in the nation in Junior Barrel Racing,
7th place in the nation in Open Barrel Racing,
and
High Point Open Barrel Racing Stallion for 2006!

Verily Sixes' foals are all eligible for the Future Fortunes Incentive program and the AQHA Incentive fund.
