TRR Lucky Brazos
“Hiptown and his siblings are just good every time, it doesn’t matter if you’re heading or heeling. They are all good in the box, they run, they rate, they are just easy to catch on.”

Born on the Tongue River Ranch, TRR Lucky Brazos (“Hiptown”) is a 2016 son of Pepcid, by leading cutting sire Peptoboonsmal. Purchased as a yearling by Tripp Townsend of Sandhill Cattle + Horses, the stallion went on to win the Limited Open at the 2019 National Reined Cow Horse Association Snaffle Bit Futurity. Hiptown has since earned approximately $100,000 in lifetime earnings in reined cow horse events, team ropings and ranch rodeos. 

Townsend knew exactly what he was looking for when he purchased Hiptown. 

“The first horse I bought from Tongue River Ranch was a full brother to TRR Lucky Brazos,” he said. “That horse’s name was TRR Lucky Playgun, and he won two AQHA world championships, plus my son won the 2009 World’s Greatest Youth Horseman on him.”

Townsend continued to buy full siblings each year, with Hiptown being the only one that remained a stallion. 

“Hiptown and his siblings are just good every time, it doesn’t matter if you’re heading or heeling,” he said. “They are all good in the box, they run, they rate, they are just easy to catch on.” 

Last October, Townsend not only nabbed the overall fast-time in the Riata #10.5 on Hiptown to split $10,000, but placed sixth on the stud in the #9.5 to split another $28,500.

The Sandhill Cattle + Horses program took the time to prove the stallion before breeding, so Hiptown’s first foal crops were limited and are just starting their careers. Townsend is encouraged by what he’s seen so far. He expects the progeny to be quiet, trainable and have a big stop like their sire.
