POCITO RASCAL (Rascal) has POCO BUENO right on her papers.  We just purchased her this year.  She is a young bay mare that should throw us some nice foals.  She will be bred to our Stallion, SUNQUEST BOOT HILL, for a 2007 foal.

POCO BUENO-out of 24 foal crops he had 405 foals registered with AQHA.  Out of the 405, 36 were AQHA Champions.  There were 136 Halter Point earners who earned a total of 3,522 Halter Points, and 118 Performance Point earners who earned a total of 3,616.5 Performance Points.  84 of the foals earned Performance Register of Merits, 21 earned Superior Halter awards and 13 earned Superior Performance awards.  POCO BUENO stood Grand Champion Yearling Halter Stallion at the Texas Cowboy Reunion Quarter Horse Show in Stamford, Texas going on to become Grand Champion of some of the country’s leading livestock shows in the 1940s:  Denver’s National Western Stock Show, the Southwestern Exposition and Fat Stock Show in Fort Worth, State Fair of Texas in Dallas and the American Royal Livestock Show in Kansas City.  He started his cutting career as a 4 year old.  It was said if you put him in a cutting arena he became a blur of lightning fast speed.  He made cutting look easy and he had his sire, KING P-234’s gentle disposition.  Fagan Miller, the manager or the Waggoner Ranch said POCO BUENO bordered on the unbelievable in the cutting arena.  He could jump backward almost as fast as he could forward.  It took a real rider to stay on him.  He was the sire of AQHA Champions, POCO DELL, POCO PINE, POCO LENA POCO BOB, POCO STAMEDE, PO9CO TIVIO, BOCO BOW TIE AND POCO CHAMP.  His most famous daughter, POCO LENA was the dam of both DOC O”LENA AND DRY DOC both sired by DOC BAR.
