together in a nick. A nick that is based on Mr Jess Perry being an outcross for Dash For Cash line mares.
Mr Jess Perry became an outstanding sire prospect when he won the 1994 Champion Two Year Old and the Champion Two- Year-Old Colt titles after winning four stakes races. He won the Texas Classic Futurity-G1, LQHBA Futurity-RG1, Louisiana Champions Day Juvenile-RG2 and Louisiana Breeder’s Laddie Futurity- RG3. He then won the Texas Classic Derby-G1 at three. He eventually found his way to Burnett Ranches, spending the rest of his life at the Four Sixes. He is now the #3 all-time leading sire of money winners with earnings of over $59 million.
Mr Jess Perry was brought to the Four Sixes primarily as an outcross on the
Dash For Cash line of mares, which are so prevalent in the industry. But he turned
out to be an excellent cross on a number
of broodmare sire lines. His top runners indicate that with Apollitical Jess (dam by Apollo TB), Matabari (dam by Separatist), One Famous Eagle (dam by Chicks Beduino), Noconi (dam by Dash For Cash), A Revenant (dam by Mr Eye Opener), Miss Racy Jess (dam by Racin Free), Fredricksburg (dam by Dash For Cash), Fredaville (dam by Dash For Cash), Jess Louisiana Blue (dam by Louisiana Slew), Mr Piloto (dam by Splash Bac) and One Sweet Jess (dam by First Down Dash). When we look at these eleven, we see that five are from the Dash For Cash line
of mares, three from the Beduino TB line of mares and the rest represent a variety of broodmare sire lines.
A look at the pedigree of Mr Jess Perry will indicate the kind of blood he brought
to the breeding shed. He is sired by Streakin La Jolla by Streakin Six by Easy Six, who was sired by Easy Jet, a son of Jet Deck by Moon Deck, a son of Top Deck TB. The dam of Streakin La Jolla was Bottom’s Up by Raise Your Glass TB by Raise A Native. Bottom’s Up was out of La Jolla by St Bar and La Jolla was out of Top Pretty TB by Top Deck.
Now let’s look at the dam side of Mr Jess Perry’s pedigree. Scoopie Fein is the dam of Mr Jess Perry. This mare earned $15,807 winning six races with three seconds and four thirds in 20 trips to the post. She was the dam of eight foals with seven starters and six ROM. She had one stakes winner
in Mr Jess Perry and four stakes placed, including Scoopie Dash, who was second
in the Louisiana Champions Day Juvenile Stakes. Scoopie Cash was another stakes placed runner with a second in the LQHBA
