Born 5-21-26 Some years we do a fun theme for names. This year for Top Gun Whiskey we are continuing with Top Gun Call Signs from the original 1986 movie and the 2022 movie. Our other stallions will have the names of Rock Bands from the 70s, 80s and 90s. This stallion is named Ranger as in the group Night Ranger. Night Ranger is an American hard rock band from San Francisco, California. The band formed in 1982 and experienced a surge of popularity during the 1980s with the release of several successful albums and hit power ballads like “Sister Christian” and “When You Close Your Eyes”. Those two songs pigeonholed them and overshadowed their hard-rock roots.
‘Ranger’ is a buckskin stallion with a star and a rear right ankle. His dam is Ms Boon Topaz. Her dam, Boon Fever, is an actual daughter of Boon San out of a Playboys Buck Fever daughter and we love that Shot O Gin who is a full brother to Tanquery Gin down there on the bottom representing solid 6666’s breeding. Topaz’s sire is Jesses Topaz a 2011 buckskin stallion sired by AQHA Racing Champion Mr Jess Perry SI 113 owned by the 6666s. Topaz was the 2nd pairing from this cross. We also kept back her younger full sister. We are excited to have these pair of sisters in our program. Both were kept with the intention of becoming broodmares for us. Topaz is a little stouter and thicker and her sister, Jessie, has a little more stretch and racehorse look. So far Topaz is off to a great start as a mama. Her first foal 2023, Whiskey Up Jade JW, was a nice bay stallion that ended up in MT. Her 2024 buckskin stallion, Whiskey Up Saturn JW sold to a repeat buyer in Florida who really loves him. Her 2025 buckskin stallion, Top Gun Goose JW, was by Top Gun Whiskey, and stayed in ND.
His sire is Whoop Up Whiskey . ‘Whoop’ is a 2010 son of Paddys Irish Whiskey and out of a great John Scott mare, My Little Sugar Babe. This is his 13th foal crop. The Paddys Irish Whiskey horses are making a name for themselves in everything from cutting to cowhorse events to roping horses and are very versatile. A key difference between Whoop Up Whiskey and our other PIW sons is the dam pedigree. Whoop’s dam goes to Doc O Dynamite who also stood at the John Scott Ranch. Doc O Dynamite was an Equi-State leading cutting sire from 1999-2005 who produced money earners and according to his performance record, his daughters have produced many money earning foals in AQHA, NCHA, NRHA and NRCHA. Doc O Dynamite has a pedigree that traces back to Three Bars giving a bit more stretch and speed to his offspring and shows up on the pedigree of many arena and speed event horses. Whoop Up Whiskey aka Whoop brings that little more height and length and speed to our program as. He has excellent bone, athleticism and conformation. His lineage tells us that his offspring will have cow and will be capable of performing at any level. Whoop’s foals are breaking out really kind and level headed.
Ranger will have all the right moves and ‘cowiness’ to make an excellent performance, ranch, or rope horse. He will be a dynamo package with a good disposition. We are seeing a lot of that style and grace in these Whoop babies. Whoop is a GBED carrier and Topaz carries 1 copy of EJSCA so 50/50 chance of either of those for Ranger and we will test.
