Some horses leave their mark on the track or in the breeding shed. Mr Jess Perry did both. In this episode of our Legends Remembered series, we honor the 1994 AQHA Racing Champion Two-Year-Old Colt who went on to become one of the most influential sires in American Quarter Horse racing history.

Dr. Glenn Blodgett reflects on Mr Jess Perry’s journey from standout runner to a stallion whose offspring reshaped the sport. It’s a look back at a legacy that still runs strong today.
