“Nora” is a 2020 AQHA sorrel mare bred for the barrel pen. She’s by Brok The Streak N Throttle, a son of Dont Touch The Throttle, and out of a Runaway Colors mare. Her papers are stacked with proven race blood, including First Down Dash, Dash For Cash, Runaway Winner, and Sixarun—lines known for speed, grit, and heart.

She’s straightforward to ride and easy to be around. Nora knows her leads, moves off her shoulders and hips, and has a solid foundation. No buck, no rear, no running off. She’s not silly, has no bad habits, and shows up honest every day. She’s been handled correctly and has a willing, sensible attitude, making her a nice prospect to take in several directions depending on what you want to do. A confident youth could easily be a good match for her.

Nora has multiple siblings running barrels in the Midwest, and she has the size, speed, and mind to follow suit. You could pattern her on the barrels, take her to the poles, or even put her in the roping box. She’s athletic but still well-minded and manageable. If you’re looking for a young mare with real papers, a good brain, and plenty of motor when you ask for it, she’s absolutely worth a look.
