Add another stallion to the growing list of those that’ve crossed new milestones in 2025. The National Reined Cow Horse Association (NRCHA) proudly announces that Dual Smart Rey (Dual Rey x The Smart Look x Smart Little Lena) now has offspring with earnings over $2 million. This comes just four years after the 2002 stallion, owned by Strawn Valley Ranch, first made the NRCHA Million Dollar Sires list.
“Dual Smart Rey crossing $2 million in NRCHA offspring earnings is a milestone that cements his place among the elite in the reined cow horse industry,” shared Michelle Horton. “He was already a legend in the cutting pen, but to see his influence extend so strongly into another discipline speaks to the depth of his genetics and the versatility he’s passed on. This achievement is not only a testament to his ability as a sire, but also to the trainers, riders and owners who’ve believed in his offspring and showcased their talents on the biggest stages. His legacy now spans generations, and his name will continue to be associated with excellence and athleticism for years to come.”
As of August 11, 2025, Dual Smart Rey’s leading offspring include:
- Duals Lucky Charm: $314,510.45 (2013 gelding out of TRR Ms Pepcid Olena); 2018 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity® Open Champion
- ReysMHigh: $200,000 (2020 stallion out of Prowlin High); 2023 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity® Open Champion
- Jule Smart Rey: $199,110.99 (2018 gelding out of Soula Jule Forever); 2021 NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity® Open Reserve Champion
Horton said Dual Smart Rey offspring are exceptional because they have his mind, cow sense and ability to stop on a dime, along with his grit, intelligence and athleticism.
“Every time our NRCHA Million Dollar Sire list grows or a stallions crosses a new milestone represents the chance to reflect on these stallions’ achievements and also those of the owners of both the stallions and the mares crossed with these athletes,” said NRCHA Executive Director Emily Konkel. “We’re proud to celebrate this new milestone with Dual Smart Rey and his connections and look forward to their bright futures.”
