Sire: SMART CHIC OLENA
At the turn of the century, versatile stallion Smart Chic Olena’s career as a sire was taking off, buoyed by waves of successful offspring. The late stallion, who died in June 2012, now stands at $14 million in progeny earnings, with foals competing in cutting, reining, reined cow horse, barrel racing and team roping — often doubling or tripling up in disciplines.
Smart Chic Olena’s Performance
Foaled in 1985, “Chic” was initially trained as a cutting horse by Bill Glass, who advanced to the semifinals of the 1988 National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) Futurity Open, where he lost a cow.
According to Equi-Stat, $5 million rider Bill Freeman and Glass both competed on the stallion in 1989. Chic made a statement with Glass that year when he placed third in the NCHA Super Stakes Open, scoring a 220 and earning more than $32,000.
