We raise and train horses specifically for pole bending and barrel racing, utilizing bloodlines of proven producers of money-winning barrel racing and pole bending horses on both sides of the pedigree.
Here you will be introduced to the horses we have raised and trained, and those we are showing in competition, with lots of top quality photography. 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.
Verily Sixes, AQHA Incentive Fund Stallion
Don't miss our strawberry roan stallion, Verily Sixes That's him in the photo at the right (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!
Verily Sixes' foals are all eligible for the AQHA Incentive fund.
FLASH! Verily Sixes' first offspring to reach competition age
