There are exciting things happening at Three Nails Ranch in Cisco, Texas. This past year, Billy and Suzonne Franks welcomed trainers Kelley Stone and multiple Congress Champion and AQHA World Champion Adam Wainscott to join forces with them at their magnificent 1,600-acre ranch. The addition of these two exceptional trainers, who will be accepting outside horses for training, allows the Franks to expand the services offered at their Halter breeding, training, and sales operation. Suzonne says, “We’re thrilled about this. Kelley and Adam will be bringing some of their Halter clients in, and Adam will be bringing in some of his riding clients, too. They’re both very well-respected exhibitors and trainers, so we’re pretty pumped up about this. We will also bring in new clients as space allows, so this is an exciting venture for us.”

The Franks are well-known for the Halter dynasty they have created at Three Nails Ranch while standing such illustrious stallions as the late Kid Coolsified. Their current line-up includes Intentions, Ecredible, Hes Stylin, and The Home Run Kid. Intentions, a 2010 AQHA/APHA stallion (My Intention x Barlinkislebeastar), is a nine-time World Champion that’s undefeated in Open competition. Ecredible is a gorgeous, 2010 chestnut stallion (Mr. Elusive x Lindys Little Secret) that’s a multiple World and Reserve World Champion, Congress Champion and Grand Champion, that’s currently standing at Rick Leek Quarter Horses. Hes Stylin, (Kids Classic Style x Shesasascotchbardoll) is a 16 hand, multiple World and Futurity champion producing sire who will now be standing at Three Nails Ranch. The Home Run Kid is a 2006, AQHA/PHBA Palomino (Kids Classic Style x Woods Ebony Tease) with an impressive resume including an AQHA World Championship and multiple APHA World and Reserve World Championships. Their stallion roster would not be complete without the legendary Kid Coolsified, who passed away on April 19, 2019.

Kid Coolsified embodied all the best qualities any breeder hopes for in a sire. This 2000, AQHA stallion (Kid Clusified x Coolsie Coosa) was truly one for the record books. He was the number one leading sire of Open Halter Point Earners and leading sire of Amateur Halter Point Earners. He was a two-time World Champion Stallion, Congress Champion, and Congress Grand Champion Stallion. As a leading sire, he was a multiple World and Reserve World Champion sire as well as a leading sire in APHA and ApHC. This dynamic stallion also earned a place in history by becoming the first Million Dollar Halter sire.
