There is no denying the influence of Boon ’ s $ 7 million sire Bet Hesa Cat , but it ’ s maternal side that really excites Servi , so much so , she purchased the mare in 2018 . Flo N Blu Boon herself won just under $ 70,000 in cutting , reining and cow horse and has amassed an impressive $ 350,000 produce record that continues to grow . The mare ’ s ability to produce athletic and trainable babies is evidenced in big show pens across the country .
2018 stallion Varsity Blu , by Wimpy Chic , and National Reining Horse Association $ 2 million rider Cade McCutcheon was a NRHA Futurity Finalist and National Reining Breeders Classic Derby Finalist . In 2022 , two of Boon ’ s full brothers , Bet Hes Blu and Brother Blu made the NRCHA Snaffle Bit Finals with Clayton Edsall and Ben Baldus respectively .
“ All these examples showcase how much talent is in the blood ,” says Servi . “ I think we ’ re just getting started seeing what kind of impact Boon will make in the performance horse industry .”
