The second foal out of Peggy Cooper was Tonta Gal by Clabber. She was a race winner of 14 of her 23 starts. She became
the dam of Tonto Bars Gill, the 1952 AQHA Racing Champion Three-Year-Old Colt. Tonto Bars Gill sired two AQHA Racing Champions: Tonto Bars Hank, the 1960 All American Futurity winner and the AQHA Racing Champion Two-Year-Old Colt and Champion Stallion and the 1961 AQHA Racing Champion Three-Year-Old Colt; and Miss Louton, the 1958 AQHA Racing Champion Two-Year-Old Filly and the 1959 AQHA Racing Champion Mare and the Champion Three-Year-Old Filly. We mentioned Miss Louton earlier when we saw her dam Miss Lou Dandy when
we profiled the foals of My Texas Dandy
Jr. So, Miss Louton was sired by Tonto
Bars Gill and out of Miss Lou Dandy
by My Texas Dandy Jr. This gives Miss Louton a breeding pattern of 4 X 3 to My Texas Dandy. Miss Louton is the dam of Camptown Girl, and she is the dam of Town Policy, the great racing gelding that was the 1977 AQHA Racing Champion Two Year Old, Champion Two-Year-Old
