Crossed on Guy On A Roll, you add even more speed and athleticism plus incredible soundness. A hard to find black grandaughter of Frenchmans Guy, whose progeny earnings now exceed $20 million. www.spaderranch.com

Out of a great riding mare with lateral quickness and natural leads, her roll-back and stop were a perfect combo for Reata’s similar style. You have to love this filly’s huge hip, deep stop, catty quickness, and smooth, effortless turns.

Lot 1
A rugged, rodeo built athlete with presence and correct conformation, this sale fea¬ture ties together ours with the great program of Wayne Drydale & Lee Jones. A full brother to top sellers and breeding stallions, this massive colt has more than fifty crosses to the great foundation sire Joe Hancock. A total package powerhouse with a keen head, quickness and speed, this naturally gifted stallion & arena prospect is bred to be great! His maternal family produced a PRCA Calf Horse of the Year owned by Doug Clark-so PRCA level bloodlines are on top and bottom of his pedi¬gree. A unique color, we think ultimately he will shed off smutty buckskin. www.spaderranch.com

When quality and color are key, this will be one of your top picks. www.spaderranch.com
Lot 5
A gorgeous roan filly backed by a proven combination of a pedigree built for cow sense, quiet disposition, and soundness. A stunner profile, she impresses us with her quick turnaround.

Look to her to make a major impact on anyone’s breeding program, or compete at high levels in ranch horse versatility, the roping pen, or be a perfect family ranch horse. This filly looks to be shedding blue in her hip and shoulder. www.spaderranch.com

Lot 11
This pedigree is loaded with great ranch and riding horses, and this baby doll of a filly already shows her dam and grandam’s trademark kind disposition. These are the type of horses that we are all searching for-gentle, smart, sound along with the ability to get jobs of any size done on the ranch. Grandam Clays Honey Moon was a cowy and gentle saddle mare, dam Honey Hancock was also talented under saddle, and combining it with Patriot’s ability and disposition has created a prospect here that you will be proud to own.

Lot 12
Hard to fault conformation, this filly always “strikes a pose” and loves to come say hello. This filly’s dam is as big, stout and gentle as you can make one. This is a pedigree combo we are excited about, double-bred GoldFingers bottom¬side with great producers like Babes Sugar Finger blended with McKeags Sap¬phire a full sister to our great “April” mare. “Patriot” appears to be homozygous roan, so there’s a chance this filly is as well. Due to this filly’s young age, she will not make the trip to the sale. She will be available for pick-up in October.
