Need more than an hour — a retainer, or a day on-site? Beyond the Hour →
Don Ham is the key for people new to the business. Behind a lifetime of connections sits the management of some of the world's most recognized stallions and mares — High Brow Cat, Show Biz Kitty, and Dual Reyish among them — and a long résumé of bringing new players into the game quickly, efficiently, and with astounding success.
His background includes hands-on leadership in the careers of some of the most legendary stallions the breed has ever produced — Smart Little Lena, High Brow Cat, High Brow Hickory, and Smart Aristocrat among them.
As an independent stallion manager, Don has guided the careers of leading sires including Spots Hot, High Brow CD, and TR Dual Rey, while also demonstrating a proven ability to identify future impact horses early. He was instrumental in the acquisition and management of Dual Reyish, an NCHA Futurity Champion and sire of LBR Hangem, and has played a key role in shaping some of the most valuable and influential mare lines in the cutting horse industry.
At Solo Select, Don guides our new-to-the-business customers and works across the full scope of the program — mare acquisition, program management, and evaluating babies and crosses for resale — alongside a comprehensive reproduction operation that includes embryo transfer, ICSI, and mare-cycle management. For the newcomer, that means one advisor who can take you from your first mare to a program built to sell.
