Ep. 38 - You Gotta Have Faith with Zeb & Melissa Corvin

When the gavel dropped on Tin Man at last year’s Western Bloodstock sale during the NCHA Futurity for $500,000, a record was shattered. It was the highest price ever paid at a public auction for a western performance 2-year-old. The buyer was Stella Swanson, of the 7Ranch, and he was to go into training with Zeb Corvin. Earlier in the day, Stella had also acquired a beautiful roan mare, Rosa Del Pepto, for another high ticket price… people were certainly intrigued.



On Episode 38 of the Cutting Edge Podcast we sit down with Zeb and Melissa Corvin before the Limited Open Finals. In a full circle moment, Zeb was crowned reserve champion in the Limited Open on Tin Man, finishing third on Rosa Del Pepto and then made it through to the Semis on both, narrowly missing the finals on Tin Man, but piloting Rosa Del Pepto to a trip to the NCHA Open Finals where he won over $29,000 on the great mare.



Today on the podcast we learn more about Zeb and Melissa’s background, their involvement in the western performance industry, and of course we talk about how this last year has been with the mounting pressure of having not only one, but two, of the industries most talked about two-year-olds in their barn.
