Legends Remembered: Dashing Phoebe

Season 2 · Episode 4

Saturday, June 13, 2026 • Duration 18:58

A legendary mare can be measured in trophies, checks and champions, but that’s not the full story of Dashing Phoebe. We start with the hard facts that made her famous: a Dash For Cash daughter who dominated as a 2-year-old and 3-year-old, stacked wins in tough company and retired with a race record that still turns heads in American Quarter Horse racing. Then we follow what happened next, when the racetrack speed gave way to the long game of breeding and legacy.

We sit down with Kirk Goodfellow, her last owner and the person who knew her beyond the headlines. He tells the story of seeing her come through a sale, taking a leap into a horse-centered life and bringing home the mare he couldn’t forget. From her conformation to her calm, generous temperament, he explains why she wasn’t just valuable, she was beloved. You’ll hear how quickly she became the go-to horse for kids, grandkids and everyday rides, and why that bond still hits him years later.

We also dig into what makes a truly great broodmare: reliability, soundness, trainability and the ability to throw quality year after year. Dashing Phoebe earned the AQHA Dam of Distinction title and produced a deep list of winners and stakes horses, with a female line that keeps powering modern Quarter Horse pedigrees. If you care about AQHA history, Quarter Horse breeding or the human side of the sport, this one stays with you. Subscribe, share this with a horse person in your life, and leave a review with your favorite Hall of Fame horse and why.

Lainie DeBoer: Trusting the Horse

Season 2 · Episode 3

Monday, April 27, 2026 • Duration 01:14:25

Twenty-six AQHA world championships sounds like a finish line, but Lainie DeBoer treats it like a trail of relationships, one great American Quarter Horse at a time. We talk about the moment it started, a camp pony named Hank's Smoky Jet, and why that early feeling of safety and confidence still defines what she looks for in a show partner today.

From there, we follow the real career path: the unexpected Montana job that pulled her into AQHA, the first time Congress felt overwhelming, and the culture shock of discovering a community that rallies around horses and horse people. Lainie shares the behind-the-scenes details that never make the highlight reel, like how a spooking issue at the in-gate turned into a full training plan involving muffins, repetition and a whole lot of patience.

We also go deep on the horses that shaped her program: Regal Intentions and the owner partnership with her mom Margaret, "Lucy" (A Chanceof Blueskies) and the lesson that great horses do not need to be over-schooled, GI Jazz and learning to tune out distractions, plus "Dillon" (DGS Dont Tell Tales) and the idea that every horse has a different “secret sauce.” Along the way, Lainie explains what a “good horse” really means to her, how she mentors the next generation and why trust is the most practical safety tool a trainer can give a rider.

If you care about AQHA hunters, Quarter Horse training, horsemanship, show-ring mindset or simply what it takes to earn a horse’s trust, this one is for you. Subscribe, share this with a horse friend and leave a review, then tell us: which horse taught you the biggest lesson?

Legends Remembered: Casey's Ladylove

Season 1 · Episode 14

Friday, December 19, 2025 • Duration 19:09

In this episode of Legends Remembered, we share the unexpected story of Casey’s Ladylove.

Casey’s Ladylove was originally purchased as a ranch and show horse for the family's children, meant to be a steady, honest partner, not the foundation of a breeding program.

No one could have predicted that she would go on to become one of the most influential mares in the performance horse world.

Through the generations she produced, Casey’s Ladylove proved that the most impactful broodmares are often the ones no one planned for, just good horses who quietly change everything.

Today, her legacy lives on through some of the sport’s most recognizable names, including Adios Pantalones, DM Sissy Hayday, French Flash Hawk, the legendary Frenchmans Guy, and MP Meter My Hay.

This is the story of a good horse who was ultimately destined for greatness.
