Two NRCHA money-earners by Metallic Cat sell in the Absolute Dispersal of Teton Ridge Performance Horses. Both horses are in training with Todd Bergen and are actively competitive in open competition. For a buyer who wants to stay in the show pen now and keep the door open for a stallion career later, these two fit.

He’s earned $40,643 and keeps advancing against real fields. He was the NRCHA Novice Horse Open Stallion Stakes Reserve Champion, a finalist in the NRCHA Open Stallion Stakes and Open Hackamore Classic, and placed top ten in both the 2024 NRCHA Western Open Derby and the NSHA Open Derby. He also split third in the Celebration of Champions Open Derby herd work.
The maternal side adds weight. Royal Red Rosita earned $100,855 and has produced $691,335, including R Rated Cat ($132,187), Motown Cat ($130,266), Red Royal Rosita ($102,350), and full sibling to Metallic Ruano, Royally Metallic ($81,795). The granddam is Royal Red Pepto, a major winner in her own right. This is a colt with current form and a family that has produced consistently.

An NRCHA earner of $35,022, Metallics Got Shine has stacked open results. He was a finalist in the NRCHA Open Futurity, a Rein Work Open co-champion in the Futurity preliminaries, a finalist in the NRCHA Open Hackamore Classic, a finalist in the Celebration of Champions Open Derby, and a finalist in the NRCHA Open Stallion Stakes. He is straightforward to prepare and keeps showing up in the right rounds.
The female line is proven. Janamatomia has multiple money-earners, and the deeper family traces to Quejana Queen, dam of ten earners topping $710,000, including Quejanisalena ($338,204) and Quejanapep ($207,901). Metallics Got Shine also carries a clean five-panel profile listed on the catalog page, which supports future value when the time comes to stand a horse.
Metallic Cat continues to influence the sport with more than $78 million in progeny earnings. Crossing that sire power with a proven nick on the mare family gives a buyer two different looks that both make sense.
Metallic Ruano (Hip 68) and Metallics Got Shine (Hip 114) sell in Western Bloodstock’s Absolute Dispersal of Teton Ridge Performance Horses on September 29, 2025. Watch them go, study the pages, and buy with a plan that starts in the show pen and leaves room for the breeding shed when the time is right.
