Bunny Class Jackson

About

Born on Easter Sunday, Bunny was welcomed into the world by our daughter and instantly celebrated as a beautiful, blue foundation addition to the Third River program. Today, she stands as one of our premier producers, renowned for throwing some of the finest blue roans to ever carry the Third River Ranch brand. Year after year, she consistently passes on her exceptional color, striking eye appeal, and elite athletic ability.

A Legacy in Her Blood

Bunny’s pedigree is deeply rooted in the history of Third River Ranch. She is a great-granddaughter of our very first Poco Bueno horse—the stallion who started the entire dream.

Her lineage also features the legendary performance sire Zan Gold Jackson (1991). As noted by HQH Ranch:

“Zan Gold Jackson is a sharp, well-mannered stallion who is incredibly powerful and quick under saddle. True to his pedigree, he is highly athletic, full of performance, gentle, and built with a good mind, strong feet, and heavy bone… He is incredibly consistent in throwing foals with immense muscle, clean heads, stout chests, and exceptional dispositions.”

The Next Generation

With a genetic powerhouse like Zan Gold Jackson in her corner—a sire by AQHA Champion and Superior Heading/Heeling horse Zan Gold Jack, and out of a point-earning half-sister to the all-time leading Working Cow Horse Zans Red Gold—it is easy to see why Bunny’s foals are so highly valued.

We have been so impressed by the quality, mind, and color this mare produces that we have retained her son, TR Courageous Spark, as a junior stallion to proudly carry her incredible legacy and disposition forward into the future of Third River Ranch.
