had two starts with one win that year. She came back at three to run five races, with one second. Her record in 1957 at the age of four was 10 starts with two wins and two thirds.
It is at this point that Tinky Ann took 1958 off to enter the broodmare band to produce her first foal. This foal was born in 1959 and named Charlie’s Pride by Booger H. Charlie’s Pride was a AA rated runner with 67 starts with eight wins, 11 seconds and six thirds. The highlight of his race career was a third in the Intermountain Futurity in 1961.
Tinky Ann put her produce record on hold after her first foal was born to run eight times with one win in 1959. She came back to the track a final time in 1960 at the age of seven to run in 10 more races with one third. She earned $3,464 in her official race career.
Charlton summed up her race career this way, “When she was a baby, she ran into a fence and cut her forearms pretty bad. So she didn’t really move right in the front end, but she had a lot of heart. A lot of try. She won races at Los Alamitos. I ran second in the Intermountain Futurity with her.”
When Tinky Ann ended her race career, she met up with the famous Rocket Bar. “I got friendly with George Kaufman at a little Futurity out at Alvin, Nevada,” Charlton explained. “When he bought Rocket Bar, he wanted me to buy a share in him, but I didn’t. I just bred to him. The deal we had was I breed three mares and he would get one colt.
“That’s the reason I bred to Rocket Bar and he had a lot of heart, too. In fact, I won three Intermountain Futurities all with Rocket Bar horses.”
We have just touched the surface of the Rolling A breeding program and the mare lines that Dr. Allred has put together. These mare families include: Jetsetting Girl, dam of horses like Golden State Derby winner Girl Secret; Separate Ways, dam of leading sire Separatist and Elans Special, the matriarch of a family of Allred bred horses like Champion Catchmeinyourdreams; APHA World Champion Really Special; and stakes winners Gotothemountain and New Look.
Dr. Allred has moved to the top as a breeder of outstanding racehorses. He got to the top with a good foundation in his breeding program through outstanding female families. And He Looks Hot, the 2019 World Champion, is a great example of his success as a breeder. It appears the race career for He Looks Hot has ended. He was officially retired Jan. 25, 2020. This great runner will go down in history, not only for his great race record, but also for his great heart that kept him game despite some great hardships.
