The versatile 2017 stallion CR Get Tuff will stand at Solo Select for 2025, adding a son of $13 million sire Woody Be Tuff to the facilities’ diverse breeding offerings.
CR Get Tuff, shown across the cow horse and team roping by Brad Lund, is out of Dual Pep daughter ARC Catty Dual, who herself earned $168,762 and was the PCCHA Open Champion in 2010, before producing offspring who’ve earned $1.13 million and counting.
“He’s 1,305 lbs and just a shade over 15 hands,” owner Rick Plummer said. “We’ve bred so much size out of the rope horses, that they aren’t going to last. But he’s got the bone and substance, and he’s really good minded. It’s hard to find one with his size that’s as athletic as he is.”
CR Get Tuff earned his superior in the heading, but since aging out of the futurities he’s been breeding mares and freezing semen for the future. The Plummers enrolled him in the Riata Stallion Incentive, which paid out over $3.6 million in 2024 alone. With this move to Solo, a breeding to CR Get Tuff will get the owner one entry into the Solo Incentive, which is set to pay out over $330,000 across the heading, heeling, breakaway and calf roping at the Clay Logan Open’s 4-year-old futurity in October 2025.
“I bought CR Get Tuff originally because I believed in him,” Solo CEO Ty Smith said. “He’s a big, strong outcross, without any Cat blood in him. I bought him because I thought he’d be a good one, and then I sold him to Rick when he said he needed a stallion prospect. So for him to bring him back here, it’s a great full-circle moment.”
