While unpacking some boxes last weekend, Mark found a copy of Remus’s papers. Which are just a copy, I don’t have his papers. But that is okay.
But I told you guys way back he had a funky registered (TYPICAL) quarter horse name. Berts Chis Jet. UGH what a name. Does he look like a Bert? Or a Jet? NOPE.
BERTS CHIS JET buckskin. G, QUARTER HORSE, 2003

He is definitely foundation quarter horse going back to some oldies as well as some thoroughbreds. Born in Falls City, Nebraska. And that is about it. I can’t find any of his close up relatives or anything about his breeder. His dam only had him (so one foal). Some of his relatives are OLD as in WWW II old! 🙂 Course he is no spring chicken. I think we will continue to call him Remus. Berts Chis Jet. JUST NO.
Happy Labor Day weekend for those who are off Monday!


Welp…Jack’s registered name is “Triple thr Gain”…my economist husband liked that…didn’t have the heart to tell him that probably meant “triple the gain in expenses each month!”
Jack was bred as a roper. Nope…just nope.

He goes back to Three Bars three times on his dam’s side. Most of the best QH’s I’ve ridden have had a lot of Three Bars. Three Bars himself was a thoroughbred and was the grand sire of Doc Bar, arguably the most influential cow horse sire in history. You’d be hard pressed to find a cutting, reining or working cow horse alive today that doesn’t have Doc Bar lineage. Remus goes back to Doc Bar only once on his dam’s side.
I don’t know his side’s lines very well. Definitely old school QH and may have Midwest concentration.
I LOVE studying bloodlines and read my parent’s old QH stud books like crazy when I was a kid.
