The Arcese name is known well in Western performance events, from breeding to competing in the show pen. The family’s commitment to breeding top-notch stock has led Arcese Quarter Horses USA to join the ranks as an NRCHA Million Dollar Breeder. Much of the Arceses’ success in the breeding business comes from the mare side, with them owning notable dams such as Hickorys Holly Cee (Docs Hickory x Miss Cee Nita x Peponita; lifetime NRCHA produce earnings over $350,000) and Sailing Spark (Shining Spark x Topsail Maid x Topsail Cody; NRCHA lifetime produce earnings over $180,000).

Top NRCHA earners bred by the Arceses include Rubys Radar (One Time Pepto x Ruby Bagonia x Peppy San Badger), with more than $284,000 in NRCHA lifetime earnings; Hickory Holly Time (One Time Pepto x Hickorys Holly Cee x Docs Hickory; 2014 NRCHA Derby Open Champion and 2018 World’s Greatest Horseman® Champion), with more than $217,000 in NRCHA lifetime earnings; and ARC Sparkin Chics (Chic Please x Sailing Spark x Shining Spark), with more than $156,000 in NRCHA lifetime earnings.
