Prelims: Mirko Midili and Mark My Word said "write this down" with their first go run of 226 and second go of 224, banking an impressive 450 composite. They topped both sections of the prelims and snagged the American Paint Horse Association "Chrome Cash" side pot.
"Mo," as he is known around the barn, is royally bred, being the son of two NRHA Hall of Famers, Gunnatrashya and Wimpys Little Chic. These legends have produced several successful full siblings, including two NRHA Open Futurity champions, Andiamoe and ARC Gunnabeabigstar. Our Bluebonnet® family might also remember cheering on another full sibling, Finals Bound, in the 2024 American Performance Horseman with pro rider, Cade McCutcheon, aboard.
Needless to say, Mirko and Mark My Word exceeded expectations with their 5th place finish in the Level 4 and notable pre-futurity wins. Also owned by Janice Laney and training at 7 Lakes Ranch, there's no doubt that this striking stallion's story is only just beginning.
