Equi-Stat performance record: Since Precious Dezires doesn’t yet have a record, here is a dive into her sire and dam. Travelin Jonez earned $197,105 during his career with EquiStat Elite $2 Million rider Chris Dawson in the saddle, and as of June 29, 2023 EquiStat showed his offspring earnings at $806,854. Bella’s dam earned $12,267 in her show career and is proving to be a quality broodmare. She had $40,041 in offspring earnings according to EquiStat on June 29. With only two earners on her record Mary Janez ($31,454 by Travelin Jonez) and Dudley Doo Right ($8,588 by Shiner Voodoo Dr) it looks like she may have an impactful broodmare career ahead of her.
