Dr. Allred retired Oh La Proud to the broodmare band and got an explosion of runners. Oh La Proud earned her AQHA Dam of Distinction and produced 29 registered foals/starters, 22 ROM and seven stakes winners, including Paul Ford Memorial Handicap 1st Division winner and Golden State Derby-G1 third place finisher Mister Katella by Raise A Secret. Her second stakes winner, Pride Of Katella by Raise A Secret, won the California Sires’ Cup Derby-RG2 and was second in the Golden State Futurity-G1.
Hawkinson is the third stakes winner out of Oh La Proud. Foaled in 1997, the son of First Down Dash won both the Los Alamitos Winter Championship-G1 and Go Man
Go Handicap-G1 and earned $448,299 on the track. Hawkinson was named the 2001 Champion Aged Stallion.

Some of his stakes horses include Ruidoso Derby-G1 winner BF Farm Boss, Champion 3-Year- Old Gelding/Champion Aged Gelding Strawkins, and Los Alamitos Championship Challenge-G3 winner Spark E Boy.
The next stakes winner out of Oh La Proud is Hawkish by Dash Thru Traffic

to Hawkinson is a 4-time Grade 1
winner in such races as the Ed Burke Memorial Futurity-G1. Hawkish was the 2003 Champion 2-Year-Old Colt and
is also a million dollar sire of over $1.7 million. Hawkish counts among his foals Wild West Futurity and Corona Chick Handicap winner Oh La Traffic.
Our next stakes winner out of Oh La Proud is 2012 Mr Jet Moore Handicap-G3
winner Rare Walker. Flame N Flash, a
full sister to Rare Walker, was the 2012 Champion 3-Year-Old Filly and winner of Mildred N. Vessels Memorial Handicap-G1 and La Primera Del Ano Derby-G3.
The seventh stakes winner produced by Oh La Proud is Look Her Over, the dam
of He Looks Hot. Look Her Over won
the California Breeders’ 550 Sophomore Handicap and AQHA Member Plus Stakes with a second in the Mildred N. Vessels Memorial Handicap-G1. Look Her Over made 27 starts with four wins, four seconds and five thirds, earning $173,326.
The sire of Look Her Over is Check Him Out, winner of the Ed Burke Memorial Futurity-G1 and Golden State Derby-G1. Check Him Out is another million dollar sire of over $5 million. Some of Check Him Out’s leading money earners include Los Alamitos Winter Derby-G1 and El Primero Del Ano Derby-G3 winner Head Turner, and Ruidoso Futurity-G1 winner Saint Shackleton.
Check Him Out is by Hennessy TB, a stakes winning son of Storm Cat. Hennessy was a major stakes winner at two, the only year he ran, winning the Hopeful Stakes-G1 and finishing second in the Breeder’s Cup Juvenile-G1.
The dam of Check Him Out is Check Her Twice, winner of the Golden State Futurity-G1. She is by First Down Dash and out of the great Vessels Stallion
Farm mare Fishers Favorite by Beduino TB. Through Fishers Favorite and her dam Ought To Go, we find the female family of horses like World Champion/2- Time Champion Special Leader, 2-Time Champion Your First Moon (who is the
dam of 4-time Champion Moonist), 2-Time Champion Old Habits, Champion Hardly Hateful and Champion Solvency.
While Look Her Over was racing in 2008, she was bred by embryo transfer to Walk Thru Fire and produced Once Over, who was foaled in 2009. This gelding became Look Her Over’s first stakes winner, winning three stakes races in 2014 including the Spencer Childers California Breeders’ Championship-RG1. Once Over was the first of three stakes winners in 2014 for Look Her Over. The second stakes winner for Look Her Over is 2019 World Champion He Looks Hot, and her third stakes winner is California Breeders’ Freshman Fillies winner Take A Look by Separatist.
Look Her Over not only produced three stakes winners in 2014, but she is also the dam of two stakes placed runners in Look Of A Dasher, second in the California Breeders’ 550 Sophomore Stakes and a finalist in the Golden State Derby-G1,
and Dashing Over, third in the California Breeders’ Freshman Fillies Stakes. Both of these runners are by TR Dasher. When we look at this young mare’s produce record through 2014, she had nine foals old enough to run and seven of them earned their ROM. Look Her Over, who was named the 2014 Speedhorse Broodmare of the Year, is now the dam of 21 foals,
17 starters, 16 ROM, four stakes winners and three stakes placed runners with total earnings of $2,606,228. Could Be Hotter, winner of the 2019 Mile High Derby, is her fourth stakes winner. Look Her Over’s additional stakes placed runner is Good Looker, who was second in the 2016 Cypress Handicap.
Dr. Allred’s first mare
was Punch Time, who has no official race record. She produced Gritch, who is the dam of Rich Gritch, another Allred mare, shown winning the 1980 Golden State Derby.
