Vermilion Fair 🎡

Hang Tight Honey (2023 tb mare)
Honey handled her first ever show and off property adventure like a pro, sticking with the crossrail class we placed 2nd in the optimum time and 1st in the equitation. I couldn’t be more proud of her mindset through the chaos of vermilion fair

Cameron (2021 tb gelding)
Cameron’s first time at vermilion fair was a great success, with smooth turns, great exposure and a lovely course he exceeded expectations and went around with scope to spare 🙃

Pretty blessed for this small herd I’ve collected

Top Gun Horse Auction ran this weekend, and honestly… the “market is crashing” crowd was loud going in.

“Prices are dropping.”
“Cheap horses everywhere.”
“Nothing quality.”

Yeah… no.

The stands were packed, the horses looked exceptional, and the prices? Strong. Very strong. Multiple horses still hitting $50K–$65K like it was nothing.

Here’s the real hot take though:

Out of 179 horses…
Only 10 were advertised 16hh.

Read that again.

The bulk of the sale sat between 14hh–15.3hh — and they SOLD. Well. So all these ads begging for 16hh+ unicorns? You might not need more horse… you might just need a better one.

Another one people won’t love:
There weren’t strings of “lame, dangerous, or worn out” horses flooding the ring. The majority were fit, presented well, and ready to go. The narrative doesn’t match reality.

Also — 4 and 5 year olds made up a big chunk of the sale. Young horses are still moving, still bringing money, and people are clearly willing to invest in something with a future.

And the color lineup? Unreal. Buyers had options, and they weren’t just settling — they were spending.

Bottom line:
The market didn’t crash. It corrected — and quality is still king.

Top Gun continues to set the tone, not follow it. And whether people like it or not, it’s playing a huge role in shaping horse prices across Alberta… and honestly, all of Canada.

So now I’m debating…
Do I drop all the data on ages, heights, and colors that went through topgun this year?
