All Spice

09/30/2025

The Teton Ridge sale averaged around $290k per horse with all 116 sold. The cutting industry is strong.

A headline name in the cutting horse world, Hip No. 62, All Spice, hammered at $5,000,000. The NCHA Horse of the Year and earner of $571,000+, she is by Once In A Blu Boon and out of Show Biz Kitty. With her first foals entering the show pen this year, she sold with an embryo by Smooth Talkin Style and a 2026 rebreed to Hashtags. Expect to see her name making headlines here again soon.

Just a mere $3 million

Zedan Racing made headlines at this year’s OBS March Sale by spending a record $3 million to land a gray or roan c**t by Gun Runner. The purchase shattered the previous OBS March sale record of $2.45 million. Earlier this week, owner Amr Zedan announced on social media that the c**t has been named Brant, in honor of prominent owner-breeder Peter Brant of White Birch Farm.

Now in training with Bob Baffert, Brant has been on a steady work schedule since mid-April and most recently breezed four furlongs in 49 seconds Saturday at Santa Anita.
