Carol Rose, the AQHA all-time leading breeder of performance horses, has announced a complete dispersal sale, to be held August 15-17 at the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame breeder’s ranch in Gainesville, Texas.
The dispersal will include all stallions, broodmares and prospects, headed by A Shiner Named Sioux (Shining Spark-Docs Sulena by Doc O’Lena). The 2006 stallion was the 2011 AQHA junior working cow horse world champion, the 2011 National Reining Horse Association Derby open co-reserve champion and the 2010 AQHA junior reining world champion. An earner of more than $152,000, A Shiner Named Sioux’s first foals arrived in 2011.
Carol has bred earners of 49 AQHA world and reserve world championships, 13 AQHA national all-around championships, as well as earners of more than $3.4 million. An intense supporter of the AQHA Incentive Fund, Carol is the leader in all Incentive Fund categories: foals bred, nominated and owned; total money earned; and nominated sires’ earnings.
Foals bred by Carol have earned more than 290 Registers of Merit, as well as 184 Superior awards in halter, cutting, tie-down roping, heading, heeling, reining, western riding, trail, western pleasure, barrel racing and working cow horse, plus more than 530 AQHA all-around titles.
Carol has indicated she will keep only one broodmare and a few select show horses for her personal use. The dispersal is not expected to include the ranch property, which is available through private sale. For more information, contact Carol Rose Quarter Horses at (940) 665-9304 or www.carolrose.com
