Best Answer

In the Quarter Horse breed, a horse that has "Bar" in the name is usually descended from the stallion Doc Bar, who was very influential in the quarter horse breed. Alternately, Doc Bar's sire was Three Bars, who was also very popular.

Breeds that are commonly cross bred with Quarter Horses, such as the Paint Horse and the Appaloosa, frequently have "Bar" in the name for the same reason.
