Incentives: Riata Buckle

Stylin With Pepto, a legacy of $28-million sire Peptoboonsmal and out of Docs Stylenaette, is making his mark in the roping pen. His limited yet esteemed offspring have seamlessly transitioned into ProRodeo and open rodeo homes after competing at the futurities.

This year will be Stylin With Pepto’s first large foal crop. This anticipated 2024 offering holds the potential for greatness, a characteristic that Stylin With Pepto’s foals have already begun to demonstrate. Whether for a beginner rider or a professional, these horses are proving to be a dream to train and compete on.

“We’re very hopeful, and we’ve believed in the potential of the horse for a long time,” Eric Brown said. “But the fact that we never bought him with the idea of breeding a ton of mares to him—we bought him as a private horse—then with the onset of the Riata Buckle, we just had the opportunity to breed more mares. Then, on top of it, the few that have been bred have just been fantastic.”

With fewer than 75 registered foals to date, the opportunity to breed with Stylin With Pepto remains an exclusive prospect for those wanting to produce capable and level-headed horses that excel in any arena.
