Craig Performance Horses started in the late 40’s with Floyd “Fat” Craig riding three and five gaited horses, which were the rage at that time. In 1951, Fat went to Kings Ranch in Texas and brought back two palominos: Sonny Sensation and Scottcos Honey. 1951 was also the year that The Raider, owned by Scottco Farms in Austin, Indiana, became the worlds champion parade horse. Fat Craig was the trainer. The 2nd generation of horse trainers, Mike Craig, was featured in the first Quarter Horse Journal as a 16 year old trainer and top youth AQHA rider in 1961. During the next twenty years Mike rode two year-olds and a small amount of show horses. Cory Craig carried on the tradition of winners by riding Donnas Catalyst to lead the world in 1989, in the Junior Working Cow Horse event. Our motto has always been honesty, integrity and to give the customer their money’s worth. Craig Performance Horses evolved from 12 stalls to 60 stalls and is located 30 miles north of Louisville, Kentucky. Today’s operation focuses on four basic areas: Our core business is training and showing reining horses. We also coach youth and non-pro competitors. The second area is centered around recreational riders and the third is lessons at all levels in the western discipline.
