Three Bars
A famous sire of Quarter Horses, Three Bars was actually a registered Thoroughbred racehorse before going on to become a member of the American Quarter Horse Association's (or AQHA) American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame.〔(AQHA Hall of Fame )〕 ==Life== Foaled April 8, 1940, Three Bars was sired by Percentage and out of Myrtle Dee.〔Simmons ''Legends'' p. 55〕 After a promising showing in race training, he developed leg problems and never raced well before he was six years old. By that time, he was in Arizona, owned by Sidney H. Vail, who paid $10,000 for him in 1945.〔Nye ''The Complete Book of the Quarter Horse'' p. 409〕 Eventually, his leg problems cleared up enough for him to race and show great early speed. He won the Speed Handicap in 1946 at Hipodromo de Tijuana, Tijuana, Mexico; which was a three-fourths of a mile, $4,000 ungraded stakes race for horses three years old or older. The winning time was 1:10 and a fifth.〔''The American Racing Manual: 1947'' p. 374〕 Vail leased him to Walter Merrick, an early breeder of racing Quarter Horses, for a few years, but also stood him in Arizona and California.〔 Three Bars died in March, 1968 in Oklahoma on Walter Merrick's ranch.〔
