6 Panel N/n ~ Open/NP RCH Prospect ~ Rope Horse Futurity Prospect ~ Open/Am VRH Prospect

Mature to 14.2-14.3h with a thick and stunning build & flawless conformation

She will have 55-60 rides by sale day & is welcome to remain in our training program.

Dixie is smart, talented, and easy to train.

UPDATED PHOTOS AND VIDEOS WILL BE ADDED HERE REGULARLY.

She is growing up strong and is built correctly. We have done this cross several times, and her full siblings are performance horses earning their keep in Florida, Wisconsin, and Oklahoma in Stock Horse, Roping, and Reined Cow Horse. Her dam’s other progeny by Bob Hes Quick (our Bet Hesa Cat stallion) have earnings in barrels, working ranch horse, and other events.

Lady Sky Six (dam) was born and raised on our ranch, and her bloodlines go back to Doc O’ Lena, Ranch Colonel, Sky High Leo, and Flying X Six - both from Kreb’s Quarter Horses of Scott City, KS & shown by Bozo Rogers.

As a future performance horse, Dixie will be gritty on a cow, have big beautiful stops, easy reining maneuvers and handle things like a pro.

She is a carbon copy of her sire (Cats Royal Boon) and as fancy as they come.

Dixie will mature to a thick 14.2-14.3h. She will make an OPEN-LEVEL FUTURITY REINED COW HORSE in the right hands, a national-level versatility/stock horse or futurity rope horse (think tie-down/heel), and more!

Ride #55 - 4/17/2025 - Yesterday, we introduced Dixie to the pasture and what is left of last year's Cowgirl Challenge trail course. Today, it's old hat.

Why? Easy. She was raised and trained by a performance horseman who has started 10,000 colts over the last 35-years and truly understands horse training. Jason taught her to trust, have a good work ethic, and be a willing partner. Jason used her natural personality, inclinations, talent, and ability to design a training program where the horse could thrive. Dixie has fun; training isn't a chore.

Every ride meant something and was done over five months. Her first ride was on December 13th. There were several nice, over-a-week-long breaks in there.

Watch all her videos; you can work the flag and ride outside, this filly has more life experience than some people’s 8 years olds, and no one had to push her hard to get here.

Can you imagine what 12 or 24 months of performance training would look like if she stayed here? This is easily a world-class horse in several different events.

More Details:

• Important to mention that Jason Perry is 6’2” with a 39” inseam for all riding videos.

• Dental with wolf tooth extraction done 2/19/2025

• 2025 Spring Vaccinations (Merck's Prestige 5 + West Nile) and Deworming (Equimax) done 3/10/2025.

• Her first rides were done 3 days in a row from 12/13 to 12/15. This is a modified version of an old technique Jason learned from Ray Hunt. It may look like chaos to those who don’t know the nuances of colt starting, but it is an excellent way to get them ridden in short rides, get good progress in a low-stress environment, and get them out of the round pen quicker. We use the round pen as needed, but this method is a great way to get them out and allow them to stretch their legs and move

• She has a great set of manners and has been exposed to farm machinery, dogs, cattle/buffalo, horse walkers, etc.

• Been on BUCKEYE Nutrition’s feed program since weaning to encourage steady skeletal and muscle growth to promote performance and longevity.

• Always had proper foot care, timely vaccinations & deworming etc.

• She is welcome to stay in our training program for as long as the new owner wishes. As a buyer incentive, we offer a training discount of $250 off each month for the first six months of training.

Our unique 40-year breeding program offers buyers many benefits:

• We are a small, hands-on operation, so we know our horses as well as anyone can. We’ve known the horses born here since the moment they were born. Both sire and dam of this prospect live on our ranch. Many of our broodmares were born and raised here, too. Or purchased when they were very young, then trained by Jason and had show careers before becoming broodmares. Our stallions were all purchased as youngsters, trained, and shown here. Learn more about our breeding program.

• Our feed program was designed by an equine nutritionist, PhD. This filly has been on BUCKEYE Nutrition’s feed program all along.

Ride #30ish—3/18/2025. This fancy and easy-to-train filly takes the cake as a RCH and VRH prospect. She is happy to work and understands aids. Open caliber. If she is this nice with this few rides, imagine what a bright future she will have when she is finished.

Flag work from ride #30ish.

OLDER VIDEOS

If you made it this far, thank you!

The horse below is an example of what “Dixie” can be if training continues in a quality program.

This is a 2021 7/8 sister; the video is from the warm-up pen in Fort Worth at the NRCHA SBF 10/24. A week after we got home, we sold her to the first people to call us on her for our asking price. She is now in a top Texas RCH program.

Dixie will be the same size and has the same raw talent. In the right program, she can go much further.
