FORT WORTH, Texas – November 19, 2025 – The National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) is fully aware of the recent Equine Herpesvirus (EHV-1/EHM) outbreak affecting parts of Texas. First and foremost, the health and safety of our equine athletes, competitors, and the entire community is our top priority.


We are actively monitoring the situation and are in direct consultation with leading veterinarians and the Texas Animal Health Commission. The reported strain is highly aggressive, and we are following expert advice and state protocols to mitigate risks.

In response, the NCHA is implementing the following measures for the World Championship Futurity:
- All attendees are encouraged to implement temperature monitoring of all horses upon arrival and twice daily during their stay.

- Immediate isolation and veterinary assessment for any horse presenting a fever or respiratory/neurological symptoms.

- Enhanced disinfection protocols for shared spaces and equipment.

- Strict controls on horse-to-horse contact and avoidance of communal water and feed sources.

- Full cooperation with state and local authorities for ongoing tracing and containment efforts.


We urge all participants to closely monitor their horses for:
- Early signs of fever, nasal discharge, cough, or neurological symptoms.

-Any abnormal behavior or difficulty in movement should be reported to event officials and a veterinarian immediately.


NCHA remains committed to transparent, ongoing communication as the situation evolves. Further updates will be provided to all participants as more guidance from veterinary and state officials becomes available.

Thank you for your cooperation and dedication to the health of our valued equine athletes.

In an unprecedented offering that will reshape the western performance horse landscape, Western Bloodstock is honored to present the Absolute Dispersal Sale of Teton Ridge Performance Horses, to be held on Monday, September 29, 2025.

With over 100 head catalogued, this sale will feature some of the most recognizable and accomplished names in the industry to put together an offering that spans over nearly every major discipline in the industry.

Headliners include Smooth Talkin Style (LTE $305,000+, sire of over $9 million), All Spice (LTE $570,000+), Third Edge (LTE $342,000+), Hesa Dual Bet ( LTE $212,844), Twice In Santiago (LTE $276,000+), Dunit A Lil Ruf (Producer of over $1,200,000) and Babe On The Chase—known affectionately as “Birdie”—with over $550,000 in lifetime earnings. Also featured is her standout daughter, Tres Chasin Babe PZ, a barrel racing sensation with earnings exceeding $546,000.

Never before has the industry seen a lineup of this caliber offered in one place, at one time. This dispersal marks the complete offering of one of the most high-powered and well-curated breeding and training programs ever assembled in the modern era of Western performance horses.

The catalog will feature a lineup of stallions, broodmares, embryos, weanlings, yearlings, 2-year-olds, and aged event horses — many already proven in the arena or backed by proven pedigrees. With bloodlines tracing to the most dominant sires and dams in cutting, reined cow horse, reining, and barrel racing, this offering is truly unmatched.

“Teton Ridge brought together some of the finest minds, horses, and pedigrees in the business,” said Jeremy Barwick, owner of Western Bloodstock. “This is a very rare opportunity — the kind that comes once in a lifetime — to access horses that were never intended to be for sale. It’s going to change breeding programs and show barns overnight. This sale puts the best of every arena within reach.”

This is not just a sale — it’s a generational shift. From dominant cutting bloodlines to rodeo royalty and reining greats, the Teton Ridge program assembled talent with intention, integrity, and an unwavering focus on performance. Now, that vision becomes available to the public for the first time.

“This is one of the most powerful offerings we’ve ever had the privilege to represent,” said Jeremy Barwick, “These horses were never meant to be sold. The quality here is so deep it’s going to reset breeding barns and show strings across the country.”

Strategically timed ahead of the Brazos Bash, the sale will kick off the fall season with an unforgettable showcase of horsepower.

Catalogs, videos, and sale-day information will be available soon at www.westernbloodstock.com.
