This blaze-faced buckskin colt is sharp, eye-catching, and already showing that presence and personality we like to see. He’s put together right with a good hip, bone, and the kind of look that’s going to turn heads wherever he goes. He didn’t stay unclaimed long—cousin Patricia has already tried to call dibs, which tells you what kind of colt he is. He is sired by Midnight Kat DR (“MC”), a stallion backed by elite performance bloodlines. MC is by Starlight Midnight, a 2002 black stallion and NRHA money-earner who qualified for the 2007 AQHA World Show in Junior Heeling. Starlight Midnight earned over 60 AQHA points and his Register of Merit. He is sired by the legendary Grays Starlight, whose offspring have won over $10 million and made him one of the leading sires in the NRHA, NRCHA, and NCHA. MC’s dam, Slick As A Cat DR, is by Magneticat, a gorgeous red roan known for bone, size, athleticism, and cow sense. Magneticat is sired by Metallic Cat, one of the most influential stallions in the cutting horse industry. Slick As A Cat DR’s dam goes back to Smooth As A Cat, stacking even more cutting power into this pedigree. On the bottom side, this colt is out of Nellie, an eye-catching buckskin mare we’ve always thought a lot of. She’s big, impressive, and bred to perform. Her dam, Pepper, is by Dry Spec A Pepper, the 1986 Eastern Idaho QH Association Senior Cutting Champion and a granddaughter of Dry Doc — NCHA Futurity Champion, $85,149 in earnings, AQHA Reserve World Champion Cutting, and a Hall of Fame inductee. Nellie is also a granddaughter of Cue Bars Laddie, a roan stallion shown as a reiner, cowhorse, and rope horse. He earned the Open AQHA All Around Trophy and is a CCHA Hall of Fame Horse. Nellie is also a full sister to the buckskin mare that everyone rides, but Kade claims. Performance on top. Cow on the bottom. Brains, bone, and presence throughout.
