On Sunday, the Solo Select Online Sale delivered yet another standout moment as bids rolled in, closing one lot after another—except for one.
The bidding on Cashpoorstripperrich, a striking black stallion, just wouldn’t stop.
When the final hammer dropped at $125,000, he became the latest high-dollar performer out of Select Genes Mare Carerra Cat, a Metallic Cat daughter renowned for producing elite horses. This marks the second time one of her offspring has shattered the six-figure mark at a Solo Select sale. Among her notable progeny is Holly Cat Carrera, who, under Zane Davis, claimed the Reno RCH Futurity Championship.
"We are incredibly grateful to Clinton Anderson for allowing us to represent this outstanding colt and to Renee Cudd for entrusting us with the management of Carerra Cat and the opportunity to raise her colts here at Solo Select,"says Solo Select founder Melanie Smith. "We are beyond excited for the big crop of Carerra Cat offspring coming up and can’t thank our bidders enough for their continued trust in purchasing horses of this caliber sight unseen through our online sales."
Cashpoorstripperrich now joins an elite roster of high sellers out of Cudd Quarter Horse's mare Carrera Cat, including Bayside Shine, a bay stallion who sold for $150,000 in the Christmas Eve Sale, and Black Magic Woman, a black filly that commanded $180,000 at the 2023 Western Bloodstock Snaffle Bit Futurity Sale.
With yet another six-figure offspring, Carerra Cat further solidifies her reputation as a top-tier producer of performance horses.
"We’re thrilled for the buyers of this colt," says Solo Select CEO Ty Smith. "He’s an exceptional individual, and he’s been in the right hands since day one."
Carerra Cat resides at Solo Select as one of the elite mares in the Select Genes Program. Secure your chance to produce your own champion—purchase an ICSI aspiration from her today.
