Born 5-18-26. Some years we do a fun theme for names. This year for Top Gun Whiskey we are continuing with Top Gun Call Signs from the original 1986 movie and the 2022 movie. Our other stallions will have the names of Rock Bands from the 70s, 80s and 90s.This filly is named after the group Boston. Boston is an American rock band formed in 1975 in Boston, Massachusetts, by Tom Scholz, a multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and mechanical engineering graduate of MIT. The band is best known for its arena rock sound, blending hard rock with pop sensibilities, and for hits like “More Than a Feeling”, “Peace of Mind”, “Rock N Roll Band” and “Something About You”.
‘Boston’ is a buckskin filly with a left rear half stocking, rear right pastern, left front pastern and right front ankle and no white on her face. Her dam is Caballero Drift JW who is an 87% NFQHA (F0039280) buckskin mare. We raised her out of Mujer Dewey Dial JW that was 83% NFQHA. Dewey was purchased from Grantier Quarter Horses because her mare line is very close to several of our VERY PROVEN ranch horses. Mujer Tacky Jay, now deceased, made a name for himself producing using horses for the family, ranch, arena and youth. We really believe in these horse families. Caballero Drift JW’s sire is Walter O Rielly aka Radar. Radar made some really nice big horses over the many years we owned him. We have kept several of his daughters back to cross with some of our more moderate sized stallions. Radar was a 90.234% foundation bred perlino stallion who went to King P-234 ten times, to Driftwood four times with strong doses of Joe Reed, Three Bars and a little Doc Bar. Her 2020 Whiskey Up Crocus JW is in MT. Her 2022 foal, Whiskey Up Squid JW, went to repeat buyers in MT. Caballero’s 2024 buckskin filly, Whiskey Up Iris JW, is now in ID. Her 2025 buckskin stallion, Whiskey Up Gondor JW, sold to a family in KS.
Boston’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 13th 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.
Boston should have all the potential to be a nice prospect no matter which direction she is pointed towards. She is very flashy and stylish! We are seeing a lot of that style and grace in these Whoop babies. Whoop is a GBED carrier so he has a 50/50 chance so check his status below. She is for sale but is one we are considering retaining for ourselves dependent upon her genetic testing. We will gladly put you on her list.
