Very cool to be featured on Carol Rose Quarter Horses page!

It was their TIME TO SHINE when owner/breeder Reid and Melanie Hockenson's 3YO gelding "HQ TIME TO SHINE" made the trip to compete at the 2024 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity...
⏰🏆🥇
Trainer Stephen Hutchins did an exceptional job training and preparing Reid's special horse for the show– earning the Limited Open Champion Title and a check for $20,000!
"HQ TIME TO SHINE (Pepe) is a very confident and consistent horse, he's got a really good head on his shoulders and a great attitude. He always stays connected to me, and is super fun. We've also been able to earn a few checks in Ranch Riding and Trail, as well as at smaller pre-futurity this year. Reid's program allows for versatility, and that makes it interesting for his horses, and myself." – Stephen Hutchins
Earner of over $25,000
CD Dyna Cee x Shiners Pearl by Shining Spark
Bred & owned by Reid and Melanie Hockenson

This is a super cute gelding that comes from two extremely talented families of horses! If you are looking for a Snaffle Bit Futurity prospect for 2026 this fella is way under the money compared to the NRCHA sales of last weekend!!

Several on track for 2025! His offspring are eligible for the NRCHA Stallion Incentive, South Dakota Stallion Stakes and IQHA Ranch Horse Futurity!!

His dam was hurt just before the NCHA Futurity but had multiple money earners and the athletic ability is certainly in her pedigree! By the great side Smart Little Lena and out of the huge producer Ruby Begonia!!

He does have a clean set of X-rays and is quiet and gentle to handle. He does have a small scar on his right hind from a wire cut which was not in the joint. There is also a 2024 full brother available as well.
