How To Sell a Two Year Old Performance Horse For $1 Million (Free Version)
Wednesday, 17 December, 2025
Foundations of Greatness – Training Young Horses Roundtable with some of the best in the business. Dive deep into the world of starting cutting horse prospects with three of the industry's most respected horse trainers: Wes Ashlock (Abilene, TX), Richard Jordan (Idaho), Gregg Garvie (Canada). In this candid roundtable recorded live at the NCHA Futurity, Fort Worth, Texas, these unsung heroes of the cutting horse world pull back the curtain on the often-overlooked art of building foundations for future champions. From day-one colt starting and teaching horses to "reach for an answer," to sourcing yearlings, navigating sales pressure, and the emotional highs and lows of seeing "your" horse succeed under another trainer—these guys hold nothing back. With humor, humility, and hard-earned wisdom, they discuss: *wildly different training styles that all produce winners *spotting "the freak" early (and knowing when greatness is already inside the horse) *evolving beliefs, favorite failures, and the worst advice they've ignored *the thrill (and terror) of million-dollar sales *why the best horses teach the trainer more than the other way around Whether you're a trainer, breeder, owner, or just love great horses and real talk, this episode reminds us there's no single path to excellence—just relentless pursuit, gratitude, and a deep respect for the animal.
