Bar Rock-N-Bean Quarter Horses is located near Eaton, Colorado, and was
established by Todd and Kristen Bean. Todd, an alumnus of Colorado State
University, attended and played football from 1987 to 1991 and has kept ties
with CSU over the years. Particularly the Beans have participated in the Legends
of Ranching Sale annually and have been overly impressed with the quality of
consignments as well as the teamwork of the students in the Equine Science
Program.
The Bar Rock-N-Bean breeding program is built on the foundation of prolific
sires such as AQHA Super Horse Real Gun, and NCHA and NRCHA All-Time
Leading Sires Playgun and Peptoboonsmal. The daughters and granddaughters
of these superior stallions were selected for the breeding operation because they
offer great minds, good bone, and sound feet. The ranch’s goal is to produce well-
minded, athletic, and versatile horses that can excel in a variety of performance
disciplines and environments.
The ranch’s consignment this year is sired by Quail Hunter, aka “Hooch”. Bred
by the Four Sixes Ranch, the gray son of Paddys Irish Whiskey is out of one
of Harry Haythorn’s outstanding mares. The stallion was purchased by Todd
and Kristen Bean in 2008 and has made substantial contributions to the Bar
Rock-N-Bean program with his size, conformation, and incredible disposition.
Currently owned by Haythorn Ranch, both ranches look forward to foals from
this sire in the future.
Thank you for your interest in the Bar Rock-N-Bean
consignment and for supporting CSU.
