Cricket is a filly we believe has a very strong chance of becoming the kind of long-term broodmare that quietly shapes a program for years.

Purchased from Lemhi Quarter Horses, she combines generations of proven rodeo genetics with some of the deepest Driftwood and Wyoming Blanton influence we’ve found in a young mare prospect.

Her sire brings proven arena genetics from both the barrel pen and roping box. Through Sawyer Wood and the legendary Miss Turkey Wood, Cricket carries generations of horses that have won at the highest levels — from futurity money earners to PRCA and NFR influence. The pedigree consistently points toward athleticism, trainability, and versatility.

What especially drew us to Cricket, though, was the strength of her bottom side.

Through Setumup Trucklewood and SHS Mame Blanton, she carries heavy Setumup Speedy, White Lighting Ike, Driftwood, and Wyoming Blanton influence — the kind of foundation bloodlines known for producing horses with excellent minds, longevity, cow sense, and natural athletic ability. These are the kinds of genetics that have stayed relevant for generations because they consistently produce usable horses.

Cricket herself is a slightly smaller, quieter bay mare with a soft eye and a thoughtful personality. She’s feminine, refined, and carries herself with a steadiness we value highly in broodmare prospects.

At Brewster Ranch, we strongly believe good mares build good programs. Cricket’s pedigree represents generations of proven rodeo horses, foundation Driftwood breeding, and maternal genetics that consistently produce horses with ability and longevity. Because of that, we feel she has every chance to make a lasting impact here in the years ahead.
