Specialeditionkitty, a 2017 gray roan mare by Metallic Cat and out of the coveted mare, PG Special Edition by Playgun, will be offered in this upcoming Solo Select Sales Flash Sale. She sells alongside an embryo by PYC Paint Your Wagon, due in 2026​.


Specialeditionkitty made the finals of the NRCHA Open Futurity, proving her abilities early on in her career.


“Specialeditionkitty is the mare all breeders dream of owning," said Melanie Smith. "She checked every box from the start, proving her talent early as an NRCHA Open Futurity Finalist. Her conformation sets the standard—she has the structure everyone wishes their broodmares possessed. We’ve thoughtfully positioned her for multidisciplinary success by pairing her with elite stallions such as Woody Be Tuff, Hottish, The Darkk Side, Tres Seis, and PYC Paint Your Wagon."


"This strategic approach opens the door to millions of potential buyers, as her offspring are prepared to excel across multiple arenas. Her distinctive gray-roan color further enhances her value, consistently attracting attention and additional bids on sale prospects with that extra "flash." She’s been exceptionally easy to breed and manage. While we'd love the opportunity to continue managing her here at Solo Select for the buyer, we're equally committed to supporting her future owner toward continued breeding success in any way possible.”


This mare’s offspring have consistently been in high demand at nationwide sales, most recently highlighted by her embryo sired by The Darkk Side selling for $32,500 in February 2025 at the Billings, Montana sale. Solo Select has a gray-roan yearling stallion by Woody Be Tuff that is one of the "best we have ever raised" according to Melanie. He will sell this fall.


Over the years, Select Genes has successfully sold multiple aspirations from this mare, including frozen embryo packages and foals-in-utero, attracting buyers drawn to her outstanding pedigree, impressive performance record, and exciting color combinations.


“If you're looking for a broodmare with genuine income-producing potential, this mare is exactly what you need," said Melanie Smith. "She has historically been extremely easy to breed - successful in both the flushing and ICSI procedures. She requires virtually no maintenance, and although she hasn't been ridden for several years, she would likely be sound if you chose to ride her again. Beyond her breeding value, she has a wonderful temperament and is a pleasure to have in the barn each day. I truly can't say enough great things about her.”



Specialeditionkitty is already solidly established as a producer, with offspring by Tres Seis, Hottish, The Darkk Side, Woody Be Tuff, and PYC Paint Your Wagon either on the ground or due soon. With multiple embryos by elite stallions still coming, she's poised to become an influential cornerstone for any breeding program, leveraging the proven performance of her bloodline to achieve sustained success.


"We have set this mare up for success," said Melanie. "Now, the buyer gets to sit back and watch all of these foals in the pipeline hit the arena. It's going to be fun to see!"


On the maternal side, Specialeditionkitty is out of PG Special Edition, a mare who brings an exceptional cow horse pedigree and performance record. PG Special Edition is a daughter of the legendary cutting sire Playgun (by Freckles Playboy)​​. This strong genetic heritage translated into success in the arena: PG Special Edition earned $110,332 in NCHA cutting competition. Her show highlights include reaching the finals of major events like the NCHA Super Stakes and even winning Reserve Champion in the Augusta 4-Year-Old Cutting Futurity​.

As a broodmare, PG Special Edition has proven remarkably influential in the cow horse and performance horse worlds. She has produced multiple money-earning performers across disciplines, with collective offspring earnings exceeding $490,000​. Several of her foals have also excelled in a variety of events – for example, Metallic Edition earned a Superior in AQHA heading (team roping) along with 169 AQHA points​. This deep maternal legacy underscores the strength of Specialeditionkitty’s pedigree, positioning her to be a valuable producer in her own right for years to come.
