2023 Bay Roan Filly "Belle" $4000.00
Date of Birth: May 1, 2023 Date of Picture: July 5, 2023
Dam: VK Copper Queen Gee2 AQHA 5727537 (Bambi 2)
Sire: Indigo Bluevalentine AQHA 5830428 (Indigo)
Bambi2 is by our stud DD Valentine King on her top side and on her bottoms side is a daughter of Prospective Copper (GeeGee) who was a daughter of Copper Queen Gee (Bambi) who won the 4H Texas State Finals in reining out of 485 qualifiers. GeeGee was a working cow horse trained by Walter Grider. Copper Queen Gee was double-bred King.
Belle's sire, Indigo, is 35+ percent Blue Valentine. He is a blue roan, 16 hands tall, and is homozygous, which means that he will always produce roan colts. This is only the second group of colts that Indigo has sired so we don’t know yet what his colts will accomplish with respect to performance. Since we have raised him, we know that he has a very gentle disposition.
As you can see, Belle has awesome conformation, and she has the same sweet disposition that her parents have. We don't have any performance record on Belle's siblings as she is Bambi 2's 2nd colt. If you want a god all around filly that has the breeding to rope, rein, run barrels, or be a great 4H project don't overlook Belle.
2023 AQHA Palomino Filly “Dasher” $4500.00
Date of Birth: April 16, 2023 Date of Pictures: July 12, 2023
Dam: LM Dash For Sassie AQHA X0728341 (Sassie)
Sire: Indigo Bluevalentine AQHA 5830428 (Indigo)
Dasher’s dam, Sassie, is a Jet of Honor/ Dash for Cash mare. On her dam’s side, she has Lightning Bar, Fast Dasher, Dasher Deck, Dash for Cash, Rocket Wrangler, Raise a Native, and Moon Deck, all within the first 4 generations.
Sassie is a daughter of LikeMyers (Chick), and he has produced quite a few 1D barrel horses. Since we lost Sassie’s dam when Sassie was two, we decided to keep her for a brood mare to replace her dam. After seeing this colt, I think we made the right decision!
Dasher is Sassie’s third baby and is the first by Indigo so we have no sibling information we can share with you. With her breeding (and her appearance), dasher would certainly be a good candidate for an FFA or a 4H project. She will have the speed to compete in any running event, and with Indigo’s roping and reining background, nothing would limit Dasher from excelling in any roping event. Dasher has a wonderful disposition, and we can’t fault her conformation. She is typical of Indigo’s foals as she has size and his good disposition. Although Indigo is blue roan and homozygous, he has produced several palomino offspring. They are born white, but by the time they are 8 or 9 months old, they start to show palomino markings. Dasher started to show the palomino coloring in this picture, although she was only 5 months old.
2023 Bay Roan Stud "Dial" $4000.00
Date of Birth: August 3, 2023 Date of Picture: August 15, 2023 and October 20, 2023
Dam: DD Glory Dancer AQHA X0661855 (Glory)
Sire: Likemeyers AQHA 5258355 Red Roan (Chick)
Dial’s dam (Glory) is a race-bred Native Dancer mare that includes 3 of the Rocking N Ranch stallions that have produced roping as well as barrel horses.in her pedigree. Her grand dam produced 2 1D barrel horses, and her dam’s sire, DialDollyforMuscle (Bisquit), has produced many roping horses and a grand champion halter mare that placed second at the AQHA 2016 World Show. She also was a buckskin association world-champion barrel mare. Bisquit also sired the Reserve Champion pole and barrel mare in the 2016 AQHA World Show. In addition, he has produced several calf-roping and PRCA team-roping horses. We stood one of his calf-roping sons during the 2018 breeding season (King) until he was stolen in November of 2019.
Dial’s sire “Chick,” is a grandson of Chick’s Beduino and a granddaughter of Awesome Blossom by On a High. He also has Dash for Cash and Easy Jet in his pedigree. Chick’s sire has a RACE ROM, a speed index of 98, and there are 6 AQHA Hall of Famers in his first 4 generations. From the looks of this stud colt and his pedigree with speed on both sides and cow on his sire’s side, we think he is a particularly good prospect for an all-around. Because Dial was born so late in the season, he will not be competitive for yearling halter classes, but as you can see from his picture, he has wonderful conformation and has nearly caught up in size to his earlier 2023 siblings. Glory's offspring have been outstanding in barrel racing and roping, and most of her colts have been sired by LikeMyers (Chick). All have been very gentle, good-minded, and have excelled in several performance .events, particularly in barrels. Since Chick also has produced colts with Glory and his other mares that have excelled in every performance event, Dial could make an all-around performance animal as well as a 1D barrel horse.
Dial was born as a bay, but he has changed color since he was born and is now a bay roan
2023 Buckskin Stud “Flash” $4000.00
Date of Birth: April 17, 2023 Date of Pictures: July 10, 2023 and August 8, 2023
Dam: NF Gayla Moonflash AQHA X0689098 (Gayla)
Sire: LikeMyers AQHA 5258355 2009 red roan (Chick)
If you are looking for a barrel prospect, check out Flash. Gayla, his dam, is by NF Native Flash Dance, one of our studs who had the speed, good mind, and the quiet disposition we look for in barrel horses. (Native Flash Dance and his sire both have race ROMs)
Flash’s dam (Gayla) is by Dina Jack, a Gay Bar King/Moon Deck mare, who has produced several all-arounds and reining horses. She has been a valuable addition to our broodmare band for many years. Dina has Two Eyed Jack, Gay Bar King, Moon Deck, and Go Moon Go,who is AAA and has an ROM, in her pedigree. In addition to their speed, Gayla’s colts have shown reining ability and their confirmation and versatility have made them ideal prospects for 4H.
Flash’s sire (Chick) has 6 horses in the AQHA Hall of Fame in his first 4 generations. His sire has a speed index of 96. His grandsire on his sire’s side is Chicks Beduino by Beduino, and his granddam on Chick’s side is Awesome Blossom by On a High. He also has Chick’s Deck, Dash for Cash, Easy Jet and Broom Straw in his sire’s pedigree. In addition to all these horses, Chick’s dam’s sire is Mr. Meyers, a son of Miss Meyers and Go Man Go, both AQHA Hall-of-Famers.
This colt has 2 barrel horse siblings that are 1D in barrel performance. His disposition and conformation will enable him to excel at any speed event, but he also has full siblings that rope so he has the background to be competitive in any cow as well as speed event. His quiet disposition, conformation, and the way he moves also makes him a candidate for a 4H or FFA project.
2023 AQHA Bay Roan Stud "HotShot"
$4000
Date of Birth: April 20, 2023 Date of Pictures: November 1, 2023
Dam: DD Native Topshot AQHA X0702175 bay (Topsy)
Sire: Indigo Bluevalentine AQHA 5830428 (Indigo)
Hotshot’s dam (Topsy) is by DialDollyforMuscle (Bisquit) who produced several
ROM roping horses, a world champion barrel mare, and the 2016 AQHA reserve World
champion pole and barrel mare. Bisquit was raised on the Rocking N, and he
produced as many roping horses as he did barrel horses. Topsy’s dam was a full
sister to our stallion, Native Flash Dance, that we had to retire several years
ago due to injury, and is a full sister to the dam that produced the 2016 AQHA
reserve world champion pole and barrel mare.
This is the second year we have had offspring by Indigo Bluevalentine. Although
he is over 35% Blue Valentine, there are also some speed horses in his pedigree.
Hotshot is Topsy’s fifth foal and is the third by Indigo. We don’t have any
sibling performance information yet for Topsy/Indigo colts, but we can already
tell that Hotshot has the good mind that is a characteristic of the Rocking N
babies. We are confident that he has the disposition, conformation, and
coordination and size to be an all-around. His dam roped and ran barrels, and
from the way he moves, we think he will be fully capable of performing like his
dam.
2023 Red
Roan Filly “Jackie” $4500
Date of Birth: June 9, 2023 Date of Pictures: July 20, 2023 and August
26, 2023
Dam: MBJ Copper Queen AQHA 5144626 Buckskin (Mariah)
Sire: Likemeyers AQHA 5258355 red roan (Chick)
Jackie’s dam (Mariah) is by a Blue Valentine, 2-eyed-Jack stud that had Mito
Paint, Native Dancer, and Go Man Go on his dam’s side. Her dam is out of a
working cow horse mare that is the last producing daughter of a double-bred King
mare with an ROM in reining (Copper Queen Gee) that won the Texas state 4-H
finals in reining out of 385 qualifiers She was a consistent horsemanship and
reining winner throughout her showing career. This mare (Copper Queen Gee) was
one of the most important contributors to the Rocking N broodmare band. Mariah
was trained for calf roping by James Free, and we were so impressed with her
first colt (DD Valentine King), that we kept him for a stud. He also was trained
by James Free for calf roping. We used him for stud in 2018 and 19; Sadly, in
November of 2019, King and his 8 mares were stolen.
Jackie’s sire, “Chick,” is a grandson of Chick’s Beduino and a granddaughter of
Awesome Blossom by On a High. There are 6 AQHA Hall of Famers in his first 4
generations. He also has Dash for Cash and Easy Jet in his pedigree, and his
sire has an ROM in Race and has a speed index of 96.
Jackie’s pedigree should enable her to do just about anything a cowhorse or
reiner could do, and with the speed from her sire, she also could be competitive
in barrels. She has a great disposition, and her siblings have all been
successful in their various disciplines. In addition to being competitive for
any type of performance, her conformation would enable her to be competitive in
halter classes; so, we think she would be an outstanding 4H or FFA project.
2023 AQHA Bay Filly “Leota” $3800.00
Date of Birth: April 17, 2023 Date of Picture: July 10, 2023
Dam: DD Bea Bea AQHA 4765840 (BeaBea)
Sire: NF Driftwood Leo AQHA X0733937 (Leo)
Leota’s dam was raised on the Rocking N ranch as was her dam, her granddam, and her great grand dam (Copper Queen Gee). Leota’s granddam produced 5 1D barrel horses, and she was one of 12 full siblings, all of which were either top barrel horses or roping horses. Her great grand dam was a 4-H State Champion in Reining, Halter, Showmanship, and Horsemanship.
In past years, we have taken turns breeding BeaBea to LikeMyers, a Chick’s Beduino stud, who stands on the Rocking N Ranch and “Bisquit", a Doc’s Prescription stud that we raised and bred here for 18 years. Both stallions have produced top all-around horses when bred to BeaBea, as they have run barrels as well as roped and have had the good minds for which our horses are noted. One of BeaBea’s full sisters was the all-around champion in a Dallas 4H state show. Also noteworthy is that BeaBea’s sire (Bisquit) also sired the 2016 AQHA Reserve World Champion Pole and Barrel Mare and the 2016 3rd place AQHA World Aged Halter mare.
BeaBea was the first granddaughter of our ROM reining mare, and has been bred to all of the studs we have raised here. Another stud we had was Hot Shot Divi, whose sire was 4th in the All American Futurity. Although HotShot was all racebred, he loved to work cattle, and he could do just about anything that cow horses do. A big plus was his speed, as nothing could outrun him! Now we have added another stallion to our list of sires, and with Leo's breeding and BeaBea’s, we know that Leota will excel in anything she is asked to do! She has beautiful conformation and a wonderful disposition. We were so pleased with BeaBea's ability to excel in everything that we also kept her full brother and used him for many years for all our cowhorse needs on the ranch.

Magic should be able to do just about anything a cow horse or reiner could do and with the speed from Chick, she can also be considered as a candidate for barrel racing.

2023 AQHA Sorrel Filly “Secret” $3500.00
Date of Birth: June 15, 2023 Date of Pictures: July 8, 2023
Dam: PS Raise a Sundance AQHA X0650301 Bay (Tia)
Sire: Likemeyers AQHA 5258355 Red Roan (Chick)
Tia is a full sister to our Native Dancer stallion, Flash, who stood here for 13 years, and produced many 1D barrel as well as roping horses. Tia is a full sister to Dancing Prospect, who was the dam of the 2016 AQHA Performance World Show Reserve Champion Pole and Barrel Mare. In addition to Raise a Native, Secret has two Race ROM horses, 3 AQHA Champions, and two Hall of Famers in the first 4 generations of her pedigree. One quality that was evident in both Tia and Chick is that both are capable of producing good roping horses as well as good barrel horses.
Secret’s sire, Chick, is a son of a race ROM horse with a speed index of 96 and is also a grandson of Chick’s Beduino and Awesome Blossom by On a High. Chick has Dash for Cash, Go Man Go, Easy Jet, and a total of 6 AQHA Hall of Famers in his first 4 generations.
Secret is a natural for timed events, could also win halter classes, can be considered for many cow events, and would be a top candidate for a 4H all-around. She has the speed to more than meet anyone's expectations for a barrel prospect. She is good minded and has the quiet disposition and stability needed for race events.
We lost Flash 2 years ago, and we have raised Secret's full brother, Patrick, to be his replacement.
