Producer Note:

HB is a consistent, proven producer that passes on strong minds, durability, and work ethic. We have retained daughters from her in our program — and probably should have kept more. Her foals are the kind that make you think twice before letting them go.

A do-anything ranch mare — honest, durable, and the kind you count on when the work matters.

About HB

MB Lady Blanton — aka Hell B*tch — aka HB.

Sorry for the language, but honestly…

I don’t know anyone who owns a gray mare and is a fan of Lonesome Dove that doesn’t name their horse Hell B*tch.

Despite the name — she is anything but.

The Kind You Rely On

HB is one of our trusty, do-anything, go-anywhere ranch mares.

Over the years, she has been used in every aspect of ranch work — and just keeps going.

Like the Energizer Bunny… she doesn’t quit.

She’s honest.
Dependable.
And has the kind of bottom and try that you can’t fake.

The kind you reach for when the work actually matters.

Ally’s Horse

HB was the first horse Ally started completely on her own — and she became her main ranch horse.

Ally has done most of the riding on her, and that partnership shows.

She naturally travels out, is willing to go anywhere, and handles new situations with confidence.

She’s the only horse Ally has claimed that truly has an “all work, no play” attitude — always ready for the next job.

Even though she belongs to Ally…

She’s also a horse the rest of us have tried to steal at one point or another.

She’s just that good.

Pedigree Highlights

HB is a daughter of SHS Maverick Blanton and out of Classy Miss Blanton — bringing together strong ranch horse genetics known for durability, work ethic, and versatility.

Her pedigree reflects generations of practical, usable horses.

The kind that are bred to work — not just look good on paper.

And she rides exactly like that.

Proven Where It Counts

HB has proven herself the right way — under saddle, over time, doing real work.

We’ve used her in all aspects of ranch work, so we know exactly what she is:

Her mind.
Her work ethic.
Her willingness.

And that gives us confidence in what she produces.

A Mare That Produces What She Is

HB has proven herself as a broodmare in the same way she proved herself under saddle — consistently.

We have retained daughters from her in our program.

And honestly… we probably should have kept more.

Her foals reflect her:

• Strong-minded
• Durable
• Willing
• And built to go to work

The kind that are hard to sell — because they’re the kind you should probably keep.

What She Produces

HB consistently passes on:

• Strong minds and willing attitudes
• Durability and structural correctness
• Athletic ability and versatility
• Trainability and responsiveness
• Work ethic and reliability
• Ranch usability

She contributes honesty, bottom, and try — the kind of qualities that make dependable horses.

Our Broodmare Philosophy

Our broodmares are expected to be broke to ride with real, proven time under saddle. That experience may come from our ranch program, previous owners, or performance training — but they must demonstrate rideability, willingness, and real-world usability.

We’ve put miles on our mares in real country — gathering, working cattle, long days, changing ground — so we know exactly what they’re like when it matters.

They have to meet the same standard as everything else here:
usable, good-minded, and built to last.

HB doesn’t just meet that standard — she’s exactly the kind of mare that defines it.

Looking Ahead

HB is the kind of mare every program needs.

Not flashy.
Not complicated.

Just honest, dependable, and always ready to go to work.

And those are the kind that hold everything together.
