SEVS Judgement Day—a Riata Buckle- and Royal Crown-enrolled stallion owned by Reserve PRCA World Champion Clint Summers and partner Griffin Marshall—is by Judge Cash and out of Dancing Kaweah Jet by Gray Dancer. The horse exploded onto the scene in March 2024 at the Bob Feist Invitational, where he won fourth and $59,000 with Lovell at the helm in his first major outing,
"He's got the brain and the speed to go as far as Clint and Colby want to take him," Ty Smith, Solo's CEO, said. "There's no denying him—we noticed him and wanted to be involved right away. He's got great bone, great size and that X factor that means there are great things to come in the arena and the breeding barn."
— SEVS Judgement Day is sired by Judge Cash, out of Dancing Kaweah Jet by Gray Dancer. Dancing Kaweah Jet is a maternal sibling to Lady Kaweah Cash—dam to An Oakie With Cash, the prolific buckskin with two NFR average titles, $800K in earnings, and nearly every rodeo in the books under his belt. —
Lovell will compete on SEVS Judgement Day at select events in 2024, before turning the reins over to Summers to hit the rodeo trail in 2025.
“He looked like exactly the kind of horse I want to ride when my money is up,” Summers told The Team Roping Journal. “He scores, he can really run, but he stays in control and handles the cow. He’s a freak facing. I’m ready to ride him, but I want Colby to continue to season him because it’s obvious he’s doing all the right things. I’ll just be patient, but our goal is to showcase him on all the biggest stages in the sport and offer him to select mares that will continue to elevate the rope horse game.”
Solo Select will manage SEVS Judgement Day's breeding offerings for 2024.
Lovell, Summers and Marshall will breed their hand-picked personal mares to the stud for 2025 foals, and they accepted mares from the public on an application basis, limiting the foal crop to focus on the horse's performance career. Solo Select will maintain a waiting list for breedings to SEVS Judgement Day, available only for those who complete the **stud's application here. **
“He’s as talented of a head horse as I’ve ever swung a leg over,” Lovell added. “I picked him out for his speed and because he's a complete outcross on anything in barrel racing and team roping right now, but he’s so good minded that I have confidence to throw him to the fire at a place like the BFI. He can rate and face better than most horses going down the road today, and he’s got a big future. He makes my job roping the horns easy. And his eye-appeal is unlike any I've seen—he is the total package.”
