Zan Parr Bar (1974–1987) was an American Quarter Horse stallion who excelled at halter and at calf roping, as well as being a famous sire of show horses.〔American Quarter Horse Foundation "(Zan Parr Bar Hall of Fame Biography )" ''American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame''〕 He was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Association's (or AQHA) Hall of Fame in 2010. ==Early life==
Zan Parr Bar was a chestnut stallion sired by Par Three, a son of AQHA Hall of Fame member Three Bars, a Thoroughbred stallion. His dam was Terry's Pal, a daughter of Poco Astro.〔 He was bred by Bobbie Silva of Tulare, California and was foaled on April 30, 1974. At four months old he was bought by Bill Gibford, a professor at California Polytechnic State University, who named him Zan Parr Bar, with the Zan part of the name referring to the horse's distant ancestor Zantanon, and the Parr and Bar referring to Par Three and Three Bars.〔Mangum "Zan Parr Bar" ''Legends 4'' pp. 32–33〕 At maturity, he stood 15.3 hands high and weighed 1250 pounds.〔Mangum "Zan Parr Bar" ''Legends 4'' p. 36〕 Gibford showed Zan Parr Bar as a two-year-old in halter, earning a couple of Grand Champion titles as well as a few Reserve Grand Championships. While at a show in California, Texas breeder Carol Rose saw Zan Parr Bar, and tried to purchase him from Gibford, who had been her advisor at Cal Poly, but Gibford would not sell, only compromising at allowing Rose the right of first refusal if he ever did sell the horse. A month later, Gibford called Rose, and informed her that he was in fact entertaining offers for the stallion, and she immediately flew to California and finalized the deal for the horse.〔 As Rose put it, "I was on a plane at eight the next morning, there by three, and by 5:30, the deal was done. At six, someone else who'd made an offer showed up."〔Quoted in Mangum "Zan Parr Bar" ''Legends 4'' p. 33〕
