What about Evansville Slew? You get the Seattle Slew/Mr P cross with 4 x 4 Mr P. Evansville Slew can get some nice runners and the foals of his I've seen have decent size. Pulling Punches horses can be a little weedy - if yo're mare's like that he might add some substance.

I would go with a Seattle Slew line horse to go with the Mr P in Miss Lumbee's pedigree. Also you could use a Strom Cat line horse to play off the Swing Till Dawn in her pedigree. I would try to avoid adding anymore Mr Prospector to the mix. That said I don't see a lot in the Okie stallion regester that fits her.

I stand Ferrara in Haskell,Ok. That would add Seattle Slew without adding any more Mr P. That would also give you sex balanced inbreeding to Swing Till Dawn. I don't know what that would do as I can't find any horses in which Swing Till Dawn inbreeding has been done.

It seems like Pulling Punches sire crosses pretty well with the Northern Dancer line. This being said, I like your mare with Country Be Gold (by Summer Squall out of a Personal Flag mare, this will give you a 4x5 to Northern Dancer and a 4x5 to Grey Dawn II). I also like her with Ra Ra Superstar (by Deputy Minister out of a Rahy mare, this will give you a Norhtern Dancer, Mr Prospector and Grey Dawn II inbreeding). Some other stallions that seem interesting to me are:
Majestry Trick (by Phone Trick out of a Pleasant Colony mare, Nothern Dancer, Grey Dawn II inbreeding)
Morluc (by Housebuster out of a Time to Explode mare, Grey Dawn II inbreeding)
We would love to know who you choose. Best of luck to you
