Born 7-25-22 “Salmon” is a bay filly with a white star and snip. She also has a rear left pastern that is higher in the back and a rear right white ankle that is higher in the front. This year our names are ocean plants and animals themed.

This is the 1st foal from her dam, HQ Jacked Up Lights aka Charlotte. We were specifically shopping for young replacement fillies with the Two Eyed Jack/Pitzer bloodlines to pair up with any of our Paddys Irish Whiskey sons as some of our older mares with those lines have already niched very well with our Paddys stallions.  She was the second foal crop from her now deceased sire, CD Cyna Dee, owned by Hockenson Quarter Horses in Iowa This stallion they called “Lights” made a name for himself in the cowhorse world in his short life. CD Cyna Dee was an AQHA point earner in 10 events including, working cowhorse, tie-down roping, heeling, heading, reining, ranch riding, cutting, performance halter, poles and barrels. He had an LTE of $26,569 in NRCHA, NRHA and ARHFA. He was a 22X AQHA World Show Qualifier and placed 12th in the 2017 AQHA World Finals in Junior Heading. He earned his AQHA Open Superior in 2017 as well.  He was also the 2017 SDRCHA Jr. Cowhorse of the year.  As of 2023 his offspring has won over $88K and he has produced 2 AQHA Reserve World Champions. Unfortunately Lights passed way too soon, but his offspring continues to make a name for him. Charlotte’s dam is a Pitzer bred mare. We purchased her full 2017 sister HQ CD Boogi Lights before Charlotte whom we are still ranching on and just started mounted shooting in 2023.  We love the idea of having 2 full sisters in our program from this dam and sire!

Salmon’s sire is Whoop Up Whiskey. ‘Whoop’ is a 2010 son of Paddys Irish Whiskey and out of a great John Scott mare, My Little Sugar Babe. This is his 9th foal crop. The Paddys Irish Whiskey horses are making a name for themselves in everything from cutting to cowhorse events to roping horses and are very versatile.  A key difference between Whoop Up Whiskey and our other PIW sons is the dam pedigree. Whoop’s dam goes to Doc O Dynamite who also stood at the John Scott Ranch. Doc O Dynamite was an Equi-State leading cutting sire from 1999-2005 who produced money earners and according to his performance record, his daughters have produced many money earning foals in AQHA, NCHA, NRHA and NRCHA. Doc O Dynamite has a pedigree that traces back to Three Bars giving a bit more stretch and speed to his offspring and shows up on the pedigree of many arena and speed event horses. Whoop Up Whiskey aka Whoop brings that little more height and length and speed to our program as. He has excellent bone, athleticism and conformation. His lineage tells us that his offspring will have cow and will be capable of performing at any level. Whoop’s foals are breaking out really kind and level headed.

Salmon should be a nice all around prospect with a lot of style. She will be able to excel in the arena or on the ranch as well. We are seeing a lot of that style and grace in these Whoop babies.
