The Paperboy's
maternal
pedigree holds a
number of
Thoroughbreds
 who
have
proven to be exceptionally strong influences in
speed-bred Quarter
Horses -- Nasrullah, Mito and Cornish Prince, for
example. (From Cornish Prince,
for instance, we get his son
Zevi TB, and
Cornish Prince is the dam's sire of
Murrtheblurr
TB. Both these Thoroughbred
sires have proven to be excellent crosses on Quarter Horses and
their daughters are exceptional,
influential broodmares.)
The
Paperboy is a very nice looking individual. He is tall and
very correct. He has good feet, big bone, a deep heart girth, a
powerful shoulder, and very nice angles. He has a great hip and a
kind, intelligent eye. The Paperboy is confident and awfully nice to
handle -- he demonstrates lots of i ntelligence.
This colt, who seems to have a lot
of speed, has a nice, long, ground-eating stride.
This "Paperboy,"
a beautiful, big, gray Rare News son, looks like HE WILL DELIVER!
THE PAPERBOY
is eligible for the
Speedhorse Races, Speedhorse Barrel Races, Bitterroot, Beehive, Rocky
Mountain Classic, Northern Plains Futurity, Kansas Jackpot, and VGBRA Barrel
Futurity. He is Bank of America Challenge nominated.
