A Houston couple has acquired the TR9 Ranch and Equestrian Facility, an 860-acre property near Weatherford, Texas, from Teton Ridge. The purchase was confirmed by Dallas-based brokerage Icon Global. The sale price was not disclosed, but the ranch had been listed for $43.5 million.
Jason and Kisha Itkin are the new owners of the ranch, which is located about 50 miles west of Fort Worth and is known for its advanced equestrian infrastructure. The facility has housed National Cutting Horse Association Hall of Fame horses such as Quintan Blue and Watch Me Whip. During its ownership, Teton Ridge operated a breeding and performance program at the site.
Teton Ridge owned the property for approximately four years. Don Bell, associate broker at Icon Global, said that during this period the company expanded the ranch from 618 acres to 860 acres and made significant improvements to its facilities. These upgrades included new buildings designed to accommodate multiple horse disciplines.
The ranch features several indoor and outdoor arenas, cattle-handling systems, barns, conditioning areas, and spectator spaces. Bell described it as “the premier horse training facility in Parker County,” noting that it is unusual for one property to support cutting, reining, and cow horse training due to their different requirements.
The Itkins also operate Theorem Ranch in Montana and own a vineyard in Napa Valley. In August last year, they gained attention in the Western performance community by purchasing Stevie Rey Von—a $23 million cutting horse sire. Jason Itkin is a partner at Arnold & Itkin law firm in Houston; Kisha Itkin has played an active role in managing their ranch operations.
In a statement posted on social media about their latest acquisition, Kisha Itkin said: “We plan to maximize this ranch’s potential” and position it as a platform to help grow Western performance sports.
Bell indicated that he initially thought selling off parts of the land would be necessary due to high operating costs but found that the buyers’ resources matched their ambitions. Icon Global founder Bernard Uechtritz commented on how rare it is for properties like this to find suitable buyers.
