Player Blanca (Dec)
Registry No: Q-44615
Colour: Brown Black (Grey)
Foaled: 28/10/99
Purchased in 2011 from the Rockhampton Quarter Horse Sale in its first year at Paradise Lagoons, "Bee" was acquired in foal to Lots of Acres (Imp), the full brother to Acres Destiny, who'd had a successful cutting career in the USA and was brought to Australia to try to capitalise on the Acres popularity.
Bee foaled a black filly, Playin Acres, who went on to a campdraft career and is now a treasured Open Draft Winner by her new owner.
Bee was joined to Old Doc Moore for the next 3 years and produced 3 stunning colts - Old Oxide, Coaltrain & Steel Player. Born Bay, Black and a strange version of mud Red, they have all gone on to be striking black-greys, with careers in stock work, campdraft and ranch riding. Steel Player has even tried out to be an NT Police horse in recent months after many diligent years at the Katherine College, teaching newcomers to ride and being an all round honest steed.
Bee was given a spell for several years before being joined to Docs Atlas for a grulla filly - Docs Athena, in 2019. Rejoined in 2020, Bee foaled a striking filly in November 2021, aptly named Players Atlantis, as she was the last of Docs Atlas' line and sadly the last of Bee's too, as we lost her on Christmas eve 2021, most likely to snake bite.
