Matt roped on her a little bit, too.” The pedigree of ApHC’s Famous Dillon, ridden by JR Dees to win the 2019 BFI. “She was a race horse, and a really big, pretty mare,” Mulligan said. Famous Dillon’s damsire, who held a 98 speed index. With all the run in the mare, she was super hot-natured, but Bryel, and her husband, four-time National Finals Rodeo steer wrester Sean, made it work. Dees’ grandfather, Kenny Ringdahl, owned the mare, and Bryel (Zancanella) Mulligan futuried her in the barrel racing. I’m just glad I get to ride him.” The Damĭillon is out of a mare registered with the Appaloosa Horse Club only as CMF, by GW War Charger (who had a speed index of 98) and out of a Packin Sixes mare called Sixa Pack. ![]() “I honestly didn’t even think about him being the first App to win it,” Dees said.
