SOLD HORSES
Matching the foals with the best home for them is the MOST IMPORTANT THING we do.
Elegant Chic (Penny)
2016 sorrel filly
Congratulations to Linda Ware of Hermiston, OR!
I think I'll miss you most of all.
Penny’s got skills! From the beginning, this little one could turn inside out in less space than it takes me to tie my shoes. She is one of the most honest horses you will find, with bottomless try, and loads of natural talent! She really wants to stop. Plus, she is just the sweetest thing, and with the great reining foundation she has, she is ready to go in any direction you want!
Penny's sire, LEITACHIC, is a World Champion NRHA Reiner, FEI finisher, multi-time AQHA World Show qualifier, and an all-around great guy.
Was I right or what?!
Zolas Got Class (Zola)
Photo by Hailee Gentry
2016 grulla filly - SOLD
Zola is in a class by herself, but that was too long of a name for the AQHA to register. She is laid-back and unflappable. Strong, correct and has a personality that won’t quit. She is going well under saddle and showing a ton of talent as a reiner or ranching riding horse. She is smooth riding, and a joy to train - learns easily and readily. Currently, just over 14.1, we expect her to mature around 14.3
Zola's dam, Peppyslilbitaclass, is an own daughter of PEPPY BADGER CHEX. Her sire, Dun It OK (by Definitely a Dunit, by HOLLYWOOD DUN IT) has points in AQHA Open Reining and is an NRHA/RHANW money earner. Zola is 5-panel N/N and homozygous black, meaning she will never produce a red foal.
This first video is fun because it shows how much she learned early on. This is about her 6th ride as a two-year-old.
Smart Trickochet
(Blondie)
2014 palomino gelding - SOLD
Congratulations Debra Selby Mills, Sandy, OR!
Blondie is about as fancy as they come. He is talented, confident, smart, and remarkably smooth-gaited. Not to mention pretty darn cute! Burnished golden color, with more roaning every year, and gobs and gobs of snow-white mane and tail.
His sire, SS Trickalena (by SMART LITTLE LENA) was a World Show qualifier in Senior Reining, earning 19 AQHA reining points and his ROM.
Blondie won Ranch Riding classes and qualified for the 2019 AQHA World Show. He has a solid foundation in reining training, and would make a safe, sane, ridiculously FANCY Non-Pro Reiner.
He is offered for sale reluctantly, as it is really hard to build another one like him. His combination of genetics, training and luck is hard to come by.
I'm fancy, and I know it.

Dun It Extra Chexy (Panda)
2016 perlino dun filly - SOLD
Dun It Extra Chexy (Panda) combines some of the best traits to produce good, sound, quiet using horses. She is by DUN IT OK, a Hollywood Dun It grandson, with a reputation for producing kind, easy babies. He has 47 ABRA points, AQHA Open Reining Points and has earned NRHA money. Out of our EXTRA DRY CHEX daughter, Extra Chexetta, Panda is quiet, sweet and substantially built. We had her color tested out of curiosity and she is homozygous black, homozygous for creme and has one copy of the dun gene (EE, CrCr, D/n), so she will produce color!
We call her Panda

Hope N For Rum, aka, Angel, age 2.

Hail of a Chic (Fooler)
2016 sorrel colt - SOLD
Our first foal from LEITACHIC, born on April Fool’s Day
to a maiden dam that gave no clue she was ready to foal – hence the nickname. Fooler is kind, athletic, mindful, and responsive. He has the potential to be a world beater – no foolin’! Started under saddle, he has all the parts to be an aggressive reiner.
His dam, Run Till Your Dun, a maternal half-sister to HF MOBSTER (LTE $123,500) was unshown due to a broken jaw. His sire, Leitachic, is a World Champion Reiner and Reined Cow horse with a list of accolades, a kind heart and an old soul.

Congratulations Kristine Lawson, Star, ID!
Coco is fancy with elegant movement, extension, drive and quickness, plus a sleek, chic look - like her namesake. She has naturally smooth riding gaits, and is quick, light and responsive.

2016 sorrel colt - SOLD
Congratulations Theresa Foster, Alberta, Canada!
Congratulations to Paycheck's new owners in Alberta, CA!
By LEITACHIC, this cute gelding has a fantastic attitude. He is quiet and easy to get along with. Stout, great bone, huge hip yet a long, elegant neck. He'll make a good using horse, but also promises to be a big stopper for a non-pro reiner. He has 60 days professional training as of July 28, 2018, and will remain in training until sold.
Paycheck has lots of white "roaning" hairs, but has not been tested for roan factor. Flaxen mane, coon tail, and white stockings. Should mature around 14.1 or 14.2, 1100 pounds plus. Clips, bathes, loads, good with farrier, vetting etc., hauls easily - just a nice, young gelding.
Does my butt make my butt look big? Check out my coon tail!
Lightsideofthemoon (Floyd)
2016 palomino gelding - SOLD
Congratulations Cindy Pasko, Junction City, OR!
Ah Floyd, you cool little weirdo. I had hoped to keep you. Unfortunately, Floyd has it all - good looks and conformation, great legs and movement, and personality that won’t quit. His new owners have started him right, and we are excited to follow his future with them.
His dam, Rum N Reno, is a producer of NRCHA money earners and AQHA pointed offspring. His sire, The Great White Hope (by Nu Chex to Cash), is an AQHA World Qualifier with points in Ranch Riding and Reining.
Floyd, growing up. Shown here as a yearling, July 2017.
I see a small hatchet. Others see a blurred crucifix. What do you see?
Hard to see in these images, but he looks like someone splattered his legs with white paint. He *sparkles* in the right light!

Awesomest Magnumus (Jameson)
2018 sorrel colt - SOLD
OMG! This colt! He has it all in spades. He is built to do any job you want, but is bred to be a top-notch reiner. Plus, he just has the sweetest attitude and kindness. He learns quickly, leads, moves away from pressure, etc.
His dam, RUN TILL YOUR DUN is out of DUN ITS BLACK GOLD, making her a maternal sister to HF MOBSTER and other great performers. His sire, LIL DREAMIN MAGNUM (by MAGNUM CHIC DREAM, $4 Million Sire and out of MYO STARLIGHT, the NRHA top producing broodmare for 2016), has earned over $107,000 so far with a high score of 156.5! This is reining royalty.
Run Till Your Dun
(Hailey)
2012 sorrel mare - SOLD
Hailey is by SHINE LIKE HAIL, one of the top money-earning sons of SHINING SPARK (World Champion & Leading NRCHA Sire). SHINE LIKE HAIL was the NRCHA World Championship Open Snaffle Bit Futurity Reserve Champion and River Front NRCHA Open Derby Co-Reserve Champion. He has LTE of $116,000, and has produced earners of over $536,500 in NRHA and NRCHA.
Hailey's dam is DUN ITS BLACK GOLD (by Hollywood Dun It, NRHA Hall of Fame) an Open Futurity Finalist, with LTE of $12,194 and 21.5 AQHA points.

Hailey is half-sister to HF MOBSTER (2013 NRHA Derby Champion, LTE $123,500) and full sister to BLACK HAILS GOLD (LTE $172, 411, NRHA Int. Open Futurity Champion.)
This mare is a naturally talented and powerful athlete. She broke her jaw in her second year, so fell behind in training, even so, she was on track to be shown in her three-year-old year, when her owner/trainer suffered a stroke. So she was bred as a four-year-old. She has given us three foals: 2016 colt, HAIL OF A CHIC; 2017 colt, RUNNIN OUTA CASH (by Nu Steps to Cash), and 2018 colt, AWESOMEST MAGNUMUS, by (Lil Dreamin’ Magnum).
She's a doting mama!

This Chic Aint Wimpy (Sophie)
2020 palomino filly - Chic-a-palooza! Drawing Prize!
Congrats to her new owner Brent Beardon!
I call her The Mighty Sophie for a reason. She is the most outgoing, fearless filly I've ever met. Friendly and without a doubt, already knows she's a star.
By World Champion Reiner, LEITACHIC, out of an own daughter of WIMPYS LITTLE STEP this little nugget will definitely make a reiner, but she has the looks, the attitude and physicality to do a lot of other jobs.
Should mature around 14.3 hands.

2020 dun roan colt - SOLD
Congratulations to Todd & Jennifer Johnson, Arcata, CA
Don't let that cute little face fool you, this kid is all boy and a powerhouse to boot! He has the breeding, conformation, athleticism and presence to do just about any job, but he should be murder on a cow.
By METALLIC MALICE, out of a daughter of HOLLYWOODSTINSELTOWN and FLO N BLU BOON. He's gonna be a killer!
Should mature around 15/15.1

SS BONI CHIC ATA BAR (Boni)
2021 palomino filly (contact owner for price)
By World Champion Reiner, LEITACHIC, out of Zippine Masterette, who earned her living on a ranch. Dam was very cowy and when working cattle would crouch down and really work. Plus she has a beautiful ground covering walk!
She is "skookum" and correct. Super nice filly!

2021 fancy palomino colt with high white - SOLD
Congratulations to Drs John and Kenny Harris, Deer Park, WA
By World Champion Reiner, LEITACHIC, out of WIGGYS LITTLE STEP, an own daughter of WIMPYS LITTLE STEP. One of the finest colts we've produced so far, and he's had some stiff competition!
If chrome is your thing, HERE. YOU. GO! But he's also correct, sweet-natured and moves like a little butterfly, floating on the breeze. (Yeah, sometimes I just like to check and see if anybody actually reads this stuff...)
Definite stallion prospect, but would certainly make an outstanding gelding.

Continental Chic (Scotch)
2019 buckskin gelding - SOLD
He just may be my heart horse... when someone takes him home with them, there will be ugly-crying on my part. But this boy deserves a home where he will get all the attention I can't give him.
Scotch is by World Champion Reiner, LEITACHIC, out of a granddaughter of CONTINENTAL CAD, a popular rope horse sire in the Northwest, known for throwing substance, bone, athleticism and good minds.
Scotch is super friendly - always the first one to come up for attention. Halter broke, loads, LOVES scritches and grooming, accepts restraint, and doesn't spit out his wormer meds. He's started on groundwork and has been hobbled and saddled several times without issue.
Fancy buckskin with just a dab of chrome and tons of dapples when fully shed out. Should mature around 15.1
Scotch likes to eat almost as much as I do :)
Look who won the fancy hair-gene lottery!

2018 bay gelding - SOLD
A heartfelt thank you to Lisa Kittel for his showing at the Art of the Cowgirl in January 2023. Her preview video showcased this talented young gelding as everything from a diving board as Lisa dove into a river, to a Man from Snowy River style downhill trail horse, to a cowhorse, reiner, and rope horse... in short, a do-it-all kind of horse. And congratulations to Allison Walters for placing the winning bid.
At 15 hands, Benny has the build and brains to get any job done. He is also a very good mover. He naturally packs his head like a bridlehorse, and REALLY likes to STOP! He definitely turned out to be a good one!
5-panel negative through parentage.

Congratulations to Mary Russell.
By World Champion Reiner, LEITACHIC, out of a granddaughter of CONTINENTAL CAD, a top rope horse sire in the Northwest, known for throwing substance, bone, and good-minded babies.

How *you* doin?
Runnin Outa Cash
2017 sorrel gelding
Just a gorgeous gelding. Elegant and correct, with great bone, feet, and attitude. Excellent ground manners - trim, clip, flyspray, worm, etc. Loads and hauls. Raised on rough ground with other horses, so he is very sure-footed and knows how to handle himself. Going well under saddle in basic reining training and trail riding. Should go any way you want, and look good doing it.
His sire, Nu Steps to Cash (by Wimpys Little Step) is smooth-riding and low headed, an NRHA money earner, and sire of money-earners. His dam, Run Till Your Dun, is by Shine Like Hail, World Champion Open Snaffle Bit Reserve Champion, and out of Dun Its Black Gold (NRHA's producer of the year for 2013), making her a full sister to Black Hails Gold (earner of $173K+) and maternal 1/2 sister to HF MOBSTER.

A Vintage Gangster (Bonnie)
2018 sorrel filly - SHE'S A CALIFORNIA GIRL NOW
Best kept secret in the NW. Bonnie is a solid reining prospect with great circles, good spins, and 12-foot slides in her first 60 days. She has had roughly 100 days of training, as her original trainer was badly injured in December 2020. The video below shows him riding her after a layoff of months, just a few months *after* his accident, and a few days *before* major spinal surgery. THAT'S how reliable Bonnie is.
Bonnie's sire, A SPARKLING VINTAGE (by SHINING SPARK, NRHA Hall of Fame), is an NRHA Two Million Dollar Sire (as of July 2020). Her dam, ELEGANT GANGSTER, has produced a World Show qualifier.
She vet checked sound and is ready for more training and to begin her show career. She is she an absolute sweetheart, with loads of talent, as is her birthright. You can't build one bred like this for this price.
This Chics Trouble (Adele)
2020 sorrel filly - SOLD
Out of a producing own daughter of Topsail Whiz (Trouble Lena Whiz, producer of offspring earnings over $50K) by World Champion reiner LEITACHIC, Adele is Reining Royalty. Three of her highest-earning maternal siblings are by a half brother to Leitachic. This is as close to a proven cross as it gets!
Adele was the QUICKEST moving baby I have ever seen, and she is beautifully built. She should make a Level 4 reiner with her eyes closed and one hoof tied behind her back.
She has a healed injury on her hind fetlock that looks funky. She is sound per vet exam, but not perfect in appearance - so price reflects that. She also has the makings of a superb broodmare down the road.
McK Hollywood Trash (Tommie)
2021 bay gelding - SOLD
AQHA colt By DP GUNNAOUTSHINYA (GUNNATRASHYA x Out Shinin Wimpy) an NRHA earner of $33K. Out of MISS N CASH JAC, a producing daughter of Hollywood Dun It (out of a daughter of Miss N Cash) with offspring earnings over $10K. Tommie is a serious reining prospect. He is 7-panel negative. He is also eligible for ApHA registration.
NRHA and NRBC Nominated, Tommie has the natural low-headed look, the willing attitude and athleticism to be a top-notch contender. That was the intention when he was purchased by his current owner. Sadly, his owner suffered a stroke that left him unable to work with his horses.
