That visibility impacts more than trainers and
competitors.
For Bella, Guthrie wasn’t simply another
futurity stop.
It impacts breeders. Owners. Young horses.
Future programs. And the long-term value of
the rope horse industry itself.
It was the moment the spotlight got brighter.
Because while Bella’s sale made headlines, her
performance in Guthrie reinforced something
equally important: the horses behind these
opportunities are real.
And if her first outing proved anything, it’s that
Crosby Ray Von is a horse built for the biggest
stages still ahead.
A FUTURITY DEBUT TO REMEMBER
Crosby Ray Von’s victory in Guthrie added
another defining chapter to an already
remarkable story.
A record-setting sale graduate. A futurity
champion. And one of the most talked-about
young horses in the rope horse industry.
Her Guthrie performance further solidified why
so many people believe she represents the future
of the sport — a horse developed through
patience, preparation, elite horsemanship, and
opportunity all aligning at the right moment.
And the results spoke for themselves.
