Located in the heart of Oklahoma’s Quarter Horse country, 7 Lakes Ranch is a world-class reining facility rooted in passion, precision, and performance. Founded by Janice Laney and NRHA Professional Thiago Boechat, the 236-acre ranch in Purcell was built from the ground up with the singular goal of setting a new standard in the reining horse industry.

Named for the seven natural bodies of water located throughout the property, 7 Lakes Ranch combines thoughtful design with elite-level functionality. From clear-span buildings filled with natural light and tall, ventilated ceilings to wide aisles and a scenic, 2,500-square-foot lounge overlooking a 150′ x 300′ indoor arena, every detail reflects the team’s commitment to excellence and horse-first care.

At its core, 7 Lakes Ranch is driven by a powerhouse breeding program. The ranch is home to two standout stallions: Jerseys Baby Driver (“Hercules”), the 2021 NRHA Level 4 Open Derby and 2022 NRBC Level 4 Open Classic Champion, and Maytheforcebewhizyou (“Obi”), a European superstar and son of $11+ Million sire Spooks Gotta Whiz. Backed by exceptional mares with pedigrees tied to icons like Wimpys Little Chic and Prettywhizprettydoes, 7 Lakes is committed to producing the next generation of elite reining athletes.

Complementing its breeding program is a top-tier training team with head trainer Mirko Midili and associate trainer Leonardo Kellermann. Midili brings a long list of European and U.S. titles to the ranch, while Kellermann—a long-time student of NRHA $9 Million Rider Andrea Fappani—has already made waves with major 2024 wins and over $150,000 in earnings.

Together, and with the support of a superior staff, this dream team offers training for a select number of outside horses, combining expertise, integrity, and a results-driven approach to developing top-level competitors.

As a proud NRHA Corporate Partner and with Laney serving on the Reining Horse Foundation board, 7 Lakes Ranch is not only a leader in the arena but also a champion for the sport’s growth and future. Whether you’re a breeder, owner, or competitor, 7 Lakes Ranch offers more than a program—it offers a community committed to shaping the future of the reining horse industry.
