Next up on our list of outstanding mares is mare a lot of people know because of her unique style of running. She runs similar to a deer, both front go at the same time. The mare is Wook Out Im Famous aka - Wook Out, Wolfie, or The Wolf. Wolfie got dubbed Wolfie because she’s a pretty Wolfie mare, there’s a whole lot of horse there and you know it when you run her. Wolfie came to us from our good friend Wendy Lenzen in October of 2020 after Nick lost his good gelding Goose, and Nick has ran her ever since between trying to get babies from her.
Wolfie has kind of been passed around up until Wendy. She spent some time with Kassie Mowry, some time with Fallon Taylor, some other owners in between them, & ended up with Jane Melby. Jane and Cayla had gotten the mare to sell for a client of theirs. Both Jane & Cayla ran her some. Wendy is a good friend of Jane and Jane knew Wendy was looking for a competitive mare and told Wendy she needed to take and run her & buy her. Wendy ended up buying her and ran her some and then live with kids happened and Wolf sat for a few years before coming to Nick. Wolfs a proven rodeo money winner, true 1D kinda horse.
Wolfie is by Zippy Zevi Dasher and out of Wooks Good.
Wolfies sire Zippy Zevi Dasher is a son of Dash Ta Fame out of a Zevi daughter. He’s sired multiple rodeo winner, WPRA circuit champions, 1D open, futurity, derby winners, & World champion youth horses. He is a race winner himself and earned his ROM on the track.
Wolfies dam Wooks Good is by Wook Here and out of a Peppy San Badger daughter. Wooks Good was started on the barrel pattern and was injured her futurity year so didn’t get to showcase her full potential.
We have crossed Wolfie with Simply Famous twice and for a stud c**t the first time that we ended up losing. And the second time we ended up with a filly who is going to be 2 in late June that we call Betty. We plan on crossing her with Special Design this year. The two should cross really well.

This next mare has some special ties to Nick. We are gonna talk about PWC Gitn Fly Girl (Grace). Grace is by Git N Gone and out of Shani’s Top Baby. This mare is a mare we’ve raised. She was born the same year as the previous mare we talked about, PWC Knight Chick. When the two were born I was big into watching Grace & Frankie and that’s how those two got their names. And they both fit those two personalities. 😂
Grace has been on the back burner just getting to grow up a little. She’s mainly been ranch rode and is being sent off to the trainer to start learning breakaway roping and some heeling. When she gets back we will start on getting her patterned.
Graces sire GitNGone (GitN) is a son of Strawfly Special out of a Meter Me Gone mare. GitN ran out on the track with a SI of 86 earning his ROM. GitN was previously owned by Guy Weimer and his mom. At the same time Guy owned Panther Mountain so unfortunately for GitN he was put on the back burner and didn’t get to bred very many mares. When I picked him up we only bred a couple mares to him before he passed away from founder related issues.
Grace’s dam, Shanis Top Baby (Red), is sired by Top Flys Jack and out of an Osage Handy daughter. Red was never shown herself, but she is a producer. She has multiple foals that have gone on to be pro breakaway horses and have won money at pro rodeos. We crossed Red with Chicos Royal King, Make It A Bud Light, Simply Famous, & GitNGone and all of her foals were stand outs!
The cool part is Shanis Top Baby (Red) had an older half sister, her name was Sugar Jet Frosty (Frosty). Frosty was Nicks first horse he ever owned, given to him by his uncle Bob. Frosty was just a ranch horse nothing special, & that was before Nick had been introduced to the rodeo world. The reason Red ended up with Nick was because he loved that bloodline of horses and wanted another one. Kendel Hofer used to own Red and knew how much he loved that line and gave her to him.
Grace won’t have a foal for a couple years but we really can’t wait to cross her on Simply Famous and also on Special Design. We think either of these crosses should make exceptional all around, barrel racing, or roping prospects.
