KT Sugar on Point, better known as “SJ,” combines cow horse ability, athleticism, speed, and eye appeal in one unique dun package. Her single spot only adds to her unmistakable look.

SJ’s dam, Miss Hollowpoint (“Shorty”), is a stocky, attractive mare by NCHA money earner Young Gun. Young Gun earned $34,749 and sired offspring with earnings exceeding $1.9 million. He is a son of the legendary Freckles Playboy and out of Lenaette, an NCHA earner of $35,640 and recipient of an NCHA Certificate of Ability and Bronze Award.

Filly
Sire: Doll Docsan, “Leroy”
Dam: KT Copper Queen Cleo
Born: March 9, 2023
Color: Black-pointed dun

There are so many things to say about KT Queenie Bellini that it is hard to know where to begin. She is out of one of our favorite mares and by one of our favorite stallions, so Mom and Toni were already arguing over who would get her from the start!

Her sire, Doll Docsan (“Leroy”), was a big, lovable marshmallow with a performance-packed pedigree. He was smooth to ride, quiet, trainable, and tremendously talented, with beautiful movement and a huge stop. He consistently passed those qualities along to his foals, producing good-looking, colorful horses with excellent conformation and willing minds.

Leroy was never shown because of a serious wire-cut injury that required a long recovery, but his offspring have proven the ability in his pedigree. He produced an NRHA money-earner, as well as a horse that successfully competed in Western Dressage, placing third in Canada in July 2016 and earning multiple first-place finishes.

Leroy was sired by Dolls Union Jac, an AQHA ROM and NRHA money-earner whose offspring have earned more than $310,000 in NRHA competition, along with earnings and accomplishments in NRCHA, the Buckskin Association, and at the AQHA World Show. Leroy’s dam, Docsan Jeany, also produced money-earners and AQHA point earners.

Bellini’s dam, KT Copper Queen Cleo, comes from one of our most treasured ranch-horse families. Cleo is by Docs Sizzle Bar and out of Copper Queen Robin, an outstanding all-around mare. Dad roped and worked cattle on Robin, Toni barrel raced her and showed her in 4-H, and she was not added to the broodmare band until she was in her twenties. She was truly one of our all-time favorite mares.

Cleo bowed a tendon as a weanling, but we were able to put some rides on her as a two-year-old. She has been a wonderful mare to have around and has consistently produced athletic, hard-working foals with plenty of cow. Her pedigree includes Docs Dee Bar, Sizzlin Hot, Gusdusted, and Ed Echols.

Bellini represents generations of horses our family has ridden, worked, trusted, and loved. With her striking black-pointed dun color, movement, cow sense, and dependable disposition, she carries forward the qualities that built our ranch-horse program.

She is sired by KT Gunners Sage Bug, a stallion backed by proven performance and foundation bloodlines. Sage Bug is by KT Gunpowder N Lead, a son of AQHA point-earner and proven producer Cue Bars Laddie.

KT Gunpowder N Lead’s dam, “Pistol,” was shown with the NFQHA and featured in its rule book and magazine. She is a dependable, versatile ranch and rope horse that the entire family can ride—the kind of working disposition we strive to produce.

Sage Bug’s dam, Continental Lady Bug, is a big-boned Continental Cad daughter tracing to Mr Blackburn, adding substance, structure, and strong foundation breeding.

Ruthie’s dam, KT Roths Golden Girl (“Goldy”), is a big, attractive mare with plenty of presence and proven versatility. Ben rode her for many years, and Toni showed her at the Othello Fair in halter and western equitation. Now a broodmare, Goldy consistently produces impressive, eye-catching foals.

Ruthie’s pedigree also includes Major Bonanza, Docs Rickashay, Docs Dee Bar, Lucky Lynx, and Catechu, combining cow sense, athletic ability, durability, and eye appeal.
