Comments:

A full sister in blood to AR Smart Little Dyna, AR Smart Explosion is also sired by Ill Be Smart and out of a full sister to Dyna’s dam.  From a bloodlines standpoint, “Nuke” as she is referred to at the ranch, comes from a full line of champions.  Nuke’s siblings have all been money earners, too.

From a development standpoint Nuke, a three-year-old mare, has always been a star.  As a right brain introvert, she has a medium going high spirit.  Kalley and her team say “Nuke tries incredibly hard to find answers.  She is very athletic and has performance potential.”  Her horsenality and breeding have indicated she has a strong potential to bond, is obedient and forgiving.

Having ridden Nuke through the beginning of the summer, Parelli Faculty Leader, John Baar, says “she caught my eye when Kalley unloaded them. She is awesome! She has a great mind, thinks her way through everything…not to mention she’s a handsome filly.”  He goes on to say “I will continue to ride her for a while then pass her on to a Uni student but will love the time playing and riding her.”  Mira Gildermann from Germany, the Uni student John later assigned to Nuke says, “She is a petite and very cute Quarter Horse mare.  We have been on a lot of trail rides and cleaned them while riding, that means cutting branches from horseback.  She is a very good Partner and is confident in doing that.  On the ground we have a lot of fun, too!  She asks a lot of questions by looking at you with an expression of ‘what can I do next for you?’  She is a very willing partner.”  Mira also indicates “There are moments she gets a little introverted and is insecure about learning new things, but if you wait for her and play friendly game, she is happy to trust in you as a leader!  We also did some riding in the arena, playing with patterns and Impulsion.  She is doing great and her impulsion seems almost equal, a good 6!”  In summation, Mira says, “She'll make a great Partner because she is really fun to play with!”

Nuke is available to a Parelli Professional or performance specialist only.
