Hamilton, TX, Circle T Arena – The last two days at the Solo Select Incentive Futurity proved one thing loud and clear: this is no ordinary futurity. With $581,580 in payouts, the event didn’t just raise the bar — it set a new one.

For calf roper Chance Bradley Thiessen and 4-year-old gelding Tom Cats R Popular, known as “Uzy”, the inaugural year of the Solo Select Incentive Futurity won’t soon be forgotten. On the biggest stage of his young career, Uzy rose to the occasion and put up an impressive 298.43 in the short round to clinch the calf roping championship and a payout of $14,850.

$6,800,000 later – Some days are ordinary, and some days change the course of history. Every once in a while, you get a day that reshapes the record books. That’s exactly what happened yesterday at the Teton Ridge Absolute Dispersal Sale, where two daughters of Once In A Blu Boon commanded prices north of $1 million each, on the same day, in the same ring.
