“Take care of the land, and it will in turn take care of the people who work it”,
Singleton Ranches is among the top five ranching operations in the United States
and were the 2012 AQHA Best of the Remuda award recipients. The ranch was
started and built off the intense variety of terrain on the San Cristobal Ranch
in New Mexico and now runs the largest cow-calf operation in the state with
12,000-15,000 mother cows.
In order to navigate rough country, big boned, sturdy horses that their cowboys
can depend on are invaluable to the ranch. Their young ranch bred horses are
expected to gather, sort, and drag calves to the branding fire, while a select few
are fitted and directed to the show pen.
Singleton Ranches carefully selects their horses to have superior cow sense,
which can be seen in the stallions who laid the foundation for their breeding
program including two-time AQHA High Point Junior Cutting Champion
and Superior Cutting Horse Dual With Me (Dual Pep, an All-Time Leading
Cutting Sire with performers earning more than $24,000,000, and out of Cow
Struck, the producer of $495,560 with foals averaging $55,000); Timbercat 101
( Docs Hickory, an All-time Leading Cutting and Reined Cow Horse Sire); SCR
Thunder Crackin (Metallic Cat x Smart Crackin Chic, the 2006 NRCHA Snaffle
Bit Futurity champion).
