XCS Xtra: Breeding Insights (Teaser)

On the tails of an exceptional NRHA Futurity finish. We couldn’t be more proud of the program we are building here at XCS—and are grateful for all of those who have helped and joined us along the way.

Earlier this summer we launched our XCS Xtra Newsletter with the goal of sharing exclusive, deeper insights into our program, the people, the horses, our vision and our journey.

🎄🎄🎄 Psst: we feel confident there is at least 1–likely more—“one size fits all 2027 fancy reining hopeful” on the list of that “hard to buy for” horse lover you’re still shopping for… and you’re in luck because we know where you can snag some exceptional early booking specials via the Oswood Stallion Station Santa exchange.🎅🏻🤠

Contact the team at Oswood to get your 2026 contracts to Gunnastepya, Snip O Lution and GOTTA NIFTY GUN!

Rumor has it we’re celebrating not one, but TWO birthdays around here today—so sending a second HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Dr. Candi Mattke today with a little photo proof that even equine vets get out of the barn once in a while. 😉🎉🎉🎉 THANK YOU Dr. Mattke for all that you do!

Homebred. Home-raised. A milestone and achievement, but still so much more... Thank you, Rosi. Thank you, Bigia. Thank you, Lution…. Thank to you to Duane, our team, family and friends near and far.

What a night to remember and one we will hold close for years to come. As a breeder, as an owner, as a team eternally committed to the horse above all else….

Gina, you are so deserving of this night… always putting in the time, the work, and forever a student of what it means to be a horseman… what a ride… 🩶🩶🩶

Congratulations to all!
