How fortunate we were to introduce this stellar daughter of Heart Hancock to our breeding program in the fall of 2010. Amber is the only full sister to Red Roan Raider, both her and Raider were bred by Roy Cleveland, Noquitea Ranch NE (50 year breeder). Red Roan Raider stood in Texas until his untimely death at 15 years. Red Roan Raider was 14.3 & 1300 lbs of strength and quality. His sons and daughters are producing winners from barrel racing and roping competitions to pick-up horses and ranch horses.

Roan Ambrose was pasture bred his entire breeding career, running with his mares all summer and used to pick up broncs in the fall by his owner Roy Cleveland. He sired his last foal crop at 25 years old. His get have been used in just about every event using a western saddle, from rodeo’s grand entry to working the ranch.

Fintry Roan Amber came to Canada in-utero when Heart Hancock was imported to Canada in 1992 by Don Woitte of Fintry Quarter Horses (50 year breeder). Heart Hancock was sold back to Texas in 1997. All but 2 of Heart Hancock’s Canadian born daughters have been sold back into Joe Hancock breeding programs in the USA.

Other Hancock breeders have also appreciated Amber’s quality and pedigree. To date she has had four sons, all standing in separate breeding programs… from Western Canada to Washington, Oregon and Arkansas.

High percentage Buck Hancock mares are few and far between and we were excited to add Fintry Cibecue Lady to our breeding program in 2008. Lady’s dam Heart Hancock was line-bred Buck Hancock sire of ROM Race/AQHA Champions/ROM Arena/Honor Roll Performance/Superior Performance/Superior Halter/Producing Daughters & World Champion Calf Roping, 1952.

Lady’s sire Fintry Drift Hancock has been senior sire for Fintry Quarter Horses for just about 20 years. He is the sire of performance bred horses used for roping, ranching, penning, barrel racing etc. A well regarded sire it was not uncommon for his entire years foal crop to be sold out, private treaty, long before they were weaned.

Roan Prairie (25% Driftwood) sired by Cibecue Roan an Arena ROM and High Point Roping Stallion, who sired AQHA Superior and show ROM as well as a Youth High Point Working Cow Horse and an AQHA Youth World Champion Western Riding gelding. Roan Prairie was used as a pickup horse at pro rodeos such as Cheyenne. Acquired by Roy Cleveland of NE (a 50 year breeder) when he was 18 years old, based on the reputation of the geldings he sired. Roan Prairie was best known for his only siring son, the incomparable, High Rolling Roany. Roan Prairie’s influence has been mainly through his daughters, who have produced scores of good rope and ranch horses and sires of the same.

Heart Hancock has had a positive and lasting influence through multiple North American “Joe Hancock” breeding programs.

Lady’s breeding career has not been as prolific as her sister, Fintry Roan Amber, but the quality is there. Her first foaled son stood at stud for a breeder here in Alberta.
