Thank you to everyone who participated in the 2021 Legends of Ranching Performance Horse Sale this year.

LOR Performance Horse Sale
History of the Legends of Ranching Performance Horse Sale
We have just completed our 16th year of the Legends of Ranching Performance Horse Sale and had some record-breaking sales!
As always, we had an outstanding group of 2 and 3 year-old horses provided to us by over twenty ranches across the United States. These young horses were assigned to students in our Horse Training and Sale Preparation class, who worked with them throughout the academic year to prepare them for our sale. We are also lucky to receive high quality aged horse consignments who nicely round out our set of sale horses presented to the public this past April.
Similar to years past, our main goal with this program is to provide excellent hands-on experiences to our students, allowing them the opportunity to take part in a top notch equine industry event. Of course we could not do it without the generous and unwavering support of our consignors and sponsors!
