HORSE: Four Bonnie Bay NICKNAME: Spur HORSE STATS: 2005 bay stallion OWNERS: Michael K. and Kim St. Clair, Kahoka,

Missouri OCCUPATION: Director of manufacturing, North American Wheels, Amsted Rail Co. BREEDER: Haythorn Land and Cattle Co., Arthur, Nebraska EXHIBITOR/TRAINERS: J.D. Yates, Pueblo, Colorado Luke Jones, Allerton, Iowa POINTS EARNED: 416.5 all-around and 173.5 heading YOUR STORY

Do you remember your first horse ride? I must have been 4 or 5; I remember Dad getting one of the teams in to check cows, and I remember riding the horse with Dad. What year did you acquire your horse? 2006 How did you find this horse? In 2006, we purchased Spur from Haythorn Land & Cattle. I told Craig we wanted to find a stud prospect, having in mind, conformation and ability. I also told Craig we intended to show the horse. Craig showed us Spur and said, “Here is your horse.”

What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? Our decision to show revolves around pro-

moting our bloodlines, our horses. We raise and sell performance horses, both finished and started. What made you decide to work for this title? Luke Jones and J.D. Yates recommended we compete for allaround. J.D. told me Spur could be a champion and he would like to be a part of getting him there. What is your favorite event and why? Tie-down roping; tie-down for me exhibits a horse’s ability to run, step hard and watch a cow.

peted at the 2010 AQHA World Show that if Spur made the finals we would fly down to Oklahoma City to watch him in the finals. This was Tanner’s first flight. This young man not only enjoyed the flight, he watched Spur win third in heeling, fourth in heading and fourth in heading. Tanner yelled and screamed while watching Spur compete and win; memory of a lifetime Describe your horse’s personality: Spur is very intelligent. From the first day on our farm, he stood out. Spur is quiet; all of our children ride him. When you ask for performance, hang-on – Spur becomes all business – cow business. What do you think separates your horse from other horses? Strength and stamina; I don’t think we have ever

asked Spur for 100 percent. You can use him all day and never see him tire.

What famous person does your horse resemble and why? John Wayne – strength, determination, all business,

loving yet always focused on winning

How has showing horses enhanced your life? We have learned a lot from Luke and J.D. regarding the correct way to rope.

What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? Our entire family enjoys using and riding

American Quarter Horses. We use our horses for ranching and pleasure activities. What interested you in owning a show horse? Our goal was to promote our program. Hobbies: Raising cattle, hunting and fishing What are your future goals with this horse? Spur will be used as the herd sire at St. Clair Farms, will be shown at the 2012 World Show in halter, tie-down, heading and heeling, and will compete in IRSTA (Iowa Roping Association). Winning words: It has been an exciting year following Spur and watching him compete.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? Worrying about Spur’s health – abso-

lutely no issues

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? We promised our 7-year-old grandson when we com-

POINTS EARNED: 340.5 reserve all-around and

What year did you acquire your horse? We acquired Lil Freckles A Glo in 2006. She was foaled here on the Chaparrosa Ranch out of a good roping mare, Shesa Lady Colonel, who was owned by one of our employees. When Freckles was 2 years old, he decided to sell her. Since we knew the mare and the stud she was out of, we decided to buy her.

What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? We thought it was a good way to showcase

our horse operation; we first started showing in 2003.

What made you decide to work for this title? Lil Freckles A Glo was the world champion junior heeling horse in 2009. That same year, she was the high-point all-ages heeling horse. We decided to campaign her one more year and try to win the all-around senior horse. What is your favorite event and why? All the roping events, since we use these on the ranch almost daily

World Show junior tie-down and fifth in 2006 AQHA World Show; Peppyta Sun O Lena, 2006 world champion junior heeling; Lil Freckles A Glo, 2009 world champion junior heeling, 2009 high-point all-ages heeling, 2010 high-point all-ages heeling and 2010 all-around senior horse What are your future goals with this horse? She is back home on Chaparrosa Ranch and in our broodmare band. Winning words. Thank you to J.D. Yates, Jay Wadhams and all the good people that work with them for taking a good horse, providing the training and allowing her the time to develop into a great horse.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The level of competition that we faced all

year; very few points separated Freckles from the second-place horse.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? Getting the phone call from the AQHA office inform-

ing us that Freckles had won the 2010 all-around senior horse title Describe your horse’s personality: Very reliable; always willing to give her best, show after show What do you think separates your horse from other horses? Her ability to consistently perform at a high level

during a long show season

What year did you acquire your horse? We purchased Lucy after the 2009 All American Quarter Horse Congress. We had always admired Lucy and when our trainers told us she was available, we knew we could not pass up the opportunity to purchase her.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? We were not hauling for the title so it

came as a great surprise at the end of the year when we found out that she had won such a prestigious award.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? Lucy is an amazing horse whose talent is only sur-

passed by her charisma.

How has showing horses enhanced your life? All of our daughters show horses and it has been a fun activity that has allowed our family to spend more time together, even as the girls grow older. Winning words: We would like to thank AQHA for this great honor and wish our fellow exhibitors the best of luck in the 2011 show season.

Nelson, Long Grove, Iowa POINTS EARNED: 199 YOUR STORY

What year did you acquire your horse? How did you find this horse? I had purchased a horse from the Nelson’s

years ago. After reaching success in the novice level at the 2010 Congress, we agreed that to continue competitively in the 14-18 youth division, we should seek an additional horse. Returning to Craig and Joni as we set out on our seach, we were introduced to Snoop. We purchased Snoop following his return from the 2010 AQHA World Championship Show. This winter has been invested in getting to know Snoop and his nuances. I look forward to showing actively through the next three years of my youth career. He will continue to be shown in open classes by Craig and Joni. What are your future goals with this horse? To show competitively at the Ford Youth World and Congress in allaround classes What separates your horse from others? He has the muscle and beauty for halter classes and has the incredible movement and talent for performance classes. I believe Snoop is a phenomenal performance horse and is one of those special finds that can win a performance halter class and turn around and win a trail class. I am extremely excited to have the opportunity to own and show a horse of this quality. Describe your horse’s personality: He is very laid back, loves people and attention. I believe he thinks he’s a person. Future Plans: To attend Ohio State University and major in business and/or law. Hobbies: 4-H, fair board, cross-country running, playing the violin, babysitting my four younger brothers and caring for my personal barn of eight horses

Obispo, California

POINTS EARNED: 27.5

Jimmy Stickler, from San Luis Obispo, California. Winning words: This award for high-point all-ages working cow horse was a total surprise for me and the Stickler family. I am thankful for the Sticklers’ support, as well as the support Don Murphy and Todd Crawford gave Jimmy. I would also like to thank my parents, posthumously, for without their love and encouragement, I wouldn’t be where I am today.

YOUR STORY

What year did you acquire your horse? I purchased Smart Summer Fun in 2008. I wanted to get a mare that would complement my stallion, Boomin, when we were done showing her. It was a risk buying her at an older age without a lot of training on her. But I live by the rule “No guts, no glory.” Do you remember your first ride? My love and appreciation of horses probably started before I could remember as a child of 1 year when my dad first put me on a horse. I do remember riding in front of my brother at about 3 on my mother’s gray mare, Jilly. I went to the local riding academy at 6 and starred in my first show at 7. I learned English riding and hunter/jumper at a place tucked back in the sugarcane on the North Shore of Oahu on trips to my second home and continued with it in California. On those same trips, I also worked for Fred Dailey of the Mokuleia Polo Farm, which was just across the fence, riding polo ponies during the polo season. I have this idea that started back when I was a kid, that where ever I go in this world, I would ride a horse. I’ve ridden with a Tibetan enclave in the Northern Szechwan region of China, in Mongolia, East Africa, Argentina and Panama, just to name a few places. I rode college horses in English, hunter/jumper and dressage at Bennett College in Millbrook, New York, then later got a nice little Quarter Horse gelding that assisted me while I finished up my degree in animal science at Cal-Poly, SLO. After college, I went to work for the family on our 36,000 acre cattle ranch and began breeding and raising Quarter Horses and McNab Cattle Dogs. I spent many weekends from the ranch showing at AQHA shows with numerous horses either bred or purchased and trained by me or trained and shown by a professional in many different events, winning many awards and titles. In 2004, I had to quit showing in reining due to back problems but continued to have horses with my present professional trainer,

What are your future goals with this horse? Continue to breed for good disposition, conformation and athlete ability. Who else in your family exhibited horses?

Winning words: This achievement is recognition that we are doing something right with the breeding programs.

What year did you acquire your horse? My uncle gave me a palomino in 1941 for Christmas. What made you want to show horses? I loved to rope and the competition that got me into cutting horses, and I proceeded to purchase Bobs Sunup. What made you decide to work for this title?

POINTS EARNED: 41.5 YOUR STORY

Do you remember your first horse ride? On my first horse ride, my dad led me around with a lead rope. Although he did not know anything about horses, he was trying his best to make me happy. During the ride, I was so excited, I wanted to trot, so my dad started running … and the horse began trotting … pretty soon, my dad hit the ground. That was the last time my dad ever led me around on a horse. What year did you acquire your horse? In 2008, we acquired Naturally Brilliant from Alfred Hewitt. What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? I started showing Quarter Horses back in the late ’80’s.

I was showing my Quarter Horse on the hunter circuit and met many others who were in the Quarter Horse circuit as well. They introduced me to the Quarter Horse shows and I’ve been showing there ever since. What made you decide to work for this title? We never planned to get a title of any kind. We really didn’t even know what high-point was. What is your favorite event and why? Anything with jumping

been so careful about everything … right down to how the bridle goes on and off the horse. He always reminds me that all the little things are important. He always wanted Naturally Brilliant to succeed in every way. How has showing horses enhanced your life? Showing horses has given Dave and me the opportunity to meet lifelong friends, as well as the opportunity to have something that we both enjoy and are involved in together. What interested you in owning a show horse? About 10 years ago, before Dave and I were married. I remember Dave and I having a talk about our lives. Dave had never been around horses, but he told me that if I wanted to show horses, he would do whatever he had to do to make that happen and be there with me. He kept his promise and ever since, we’ve been showing horses. Winning words: I wish the AQHA to know that I am honored. This is one of the highlights of my life and I appreciate being part of an organization that has brought me many wonderful friends. I would like to thank my husband, Dave Farrar, for his support and hard work. He is really the one who deserves special thanks. He was there every step of the way. Without a doubt, this would’ve never happened without all his effort. He drove, did all the longeing, tacking and gave baths … pretty much everything except ride. He made me believe that something great can always happen to our lives! I would also like to thank Alfred Hewitt, our trainer for all the hard work and effort. Alfred Hewitt is truly amazing. We do not believe that this award would have been possible without all the hard work Alfred put in all year long. He put Naturally Brilliant on the top of the mountain.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The biggest challenge in winning the title was

rent AQHYA president.

What interested you in owning a show horse? My father was a major competitor in the NRHA and AQHA industries. My mother also encouraged me to show since she is very competitive.

won the youth hunter under saddle title for the fifth consecutive year in 2010. My two horses became extremely bonded, which became very challenging over the course of the year. What do you think separates your horse from other horses? I feel that his smooth profile sets him apart from the

competition. His palomino color is also a standout in the ring, along with his huge natural tail.

What famous person does your horse resemble and why? Clifford reminds me of “The Situation” on “Jersey Shore”

because they both have a “fit” but not overdone physique, and are totally hams! Who is your mentor and why? Joey Shortino is my halter mentor.

Miss Bebopping OPEN BARREL RACING

HORSE: Miss Bebopping NICKNAME: Bebop HORSE STATS: 2005 sorrel mare OWNER/BREEDER: William D. Bingham,

Somerset, Kentucky EXHIBITOR/TRAINER: Will Bingham, Somerset, Kentucky TRAINER: Bobby Stivers, Scottsville, Kentucky POINTS EARNED: 109.5 YOUR STORY

Do you remember your first horse ride? I was raised around horses. Most of them were unregistered and were used for trail riding. In the late ’70s, I had a mare I thought was pretty fast, so I tried barrel racing her. After a few shows, I had to have something faster. I would buy and trade for better registered horses to show. My wife and I bought some broodmares to breed to our stallion Easy Jet Bayou. What year did you acquire your horse? I had some daughters of Ladybugs Moon, Bugs Alive In 75, Shawne Bug, Blushing Bug, Easy Jet and Fe Fe Bug. In 2006, we raised Miss Be Bopping by Easy Jet Bayou out of Behopping Turbo by Blushing Bug. What made you decide to work for this title? My family has always liked showing. Early in 2010, my son, Will, was riding Miss Bebopping in the barrels and pole bending. What is your favorite event and why? The barrel racing and pole bending are our favorite, because of the speed and action of running against the clock. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The hard part of this year was being away

from home so much.

Bingham, for my background and leadership growing up. How has showing horses enhanced your life? I think showing horses has helped my kids accept some responsibility for taking care of animals, how to travel going to different states, showing and being in various environments. What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? The Quarter Horses we own and raise are

good for family involvement.

What interested you in owning a show horse? I have always been competitive from playing high school and college basketball or horse showing or any activity I am involved in. Hobbies: I don’t have time for any hobbies but I do enjoy farming and church work.

“Chuck” Givens, Richmond, Kentucky

BREEDER: Jeremy D. Mills, Brandenburg, Kentucky POINTS EARNED: 115.5 YOUR STORY

What year did you acquire your horse? Purchased Clyde as a 4-year-old in December 2009 from Joey Gamble of Symsonia, Kentucky. Joey had a good foundation started on him and an even better pole pattern. During Thanksgiving 2009, we were at a show in Hartford, Kentucky, a small town where I grew up. This is where I first saw Joey running Clyde through exhibition poles. What made you want to show horses? My wife and I always enjoy showing our Quarter Horses each weekend. She was by my side when I won my first AQHA high-point in 1997 and has been the one person I could always count on. Doing this together makes it even better. What made you decide to work for this title? The decision to commit to this award was easy. He is in the AQHA Incentive Fund and Kentucky Breeders Incentive Fund. What is your favorite event and why? My favorite event is pole bending. It is a physical and mental challenge to run a horse through this course in 19 seconds. With a white pole coming at you every 21 feet, you truly have to think on your feet or should I say on your horse’s feet. It’s all about cutting the clock off the fastest.

nothing else exists, no horses and no cell phones. ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: Kolton Dan’s achievements include 125-plus

AQHA pole bending points, AQHA Superior in pole bending, 2010 top-10 at the Adequan Select World in pole bending, 2010 finalist at the AQHA World Show in junior pole bending, 2010 KBIF Futurity champion in pole bending; Sugar Rullah’s achievements include 2010 Adequan Select World barrel racing world champion, 2009 AQHA amateur reserve world champion in pole bending, 2006 AQHA highpoint in open pole bending and open barrel racing, 2005 AQHA world champion in junior pole bending; True Rancher won the 2009 Adequan Select World pole bending world championship; French Kiss This won the 2009 Adequan Select reserve world championship in pole bending; Captain Adios won the 2004 AQHA high-point open pole bending; Butler Smoky Joetime won the 1997 and 1998 AQHA high-point in pole bending. What are your future goals with this horse? We have sold Clyde, and I know his new owner, Regina McCardle, will give him a good home and the best of everything. She plans to continue showing Clyde in amateur poles and will begin to show him barrel racing in April of this year.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? I rode Clyde through the winter and ran him at the

early winter shows. He ran a little green the first show or two, but quickly improved each and every show. He was so consistent throughout the year, always placing and collecting points each time he ran. If he hit a pole, it was because it got in his way. What do you think separates your horse from other horses? Clyde has to be one of the smoothest horses I have

ever run. I think he did a lot of growing up this year. Hobbies: I like to deer hunt so I tried to collect as many points as possible from February to October. Deer season in Kentucky opens mid-November. For just those few weeks, Rene Dan Jet Aprils Lady Bug Sasakwa Doc Masters Missy Leo

How has showing horses enhanced your life?

Do you remember your first horse ride? As a preschool child, I had a Welsh pony that I lived on! I would race the school bus that picked up my brother and sisters every morning. What year did you acquire your horse? We bought Butch sight-unseen off a young man in Illinois. I was in Florida at the time and sent my husband with a trailer. What made you want to show horses? In 1993, we bought our first AQHA show horse and won our first futurity in weanling colts. We were hooked! What made you decide to work for this title? Chad held Butch back to mature and grow. He realized that if he held him back, he could run for the green western pleasure high-point. It was such a task, as the competition is very talented. Chad never had any doubts about Butch and achieving the goal. What is your favorite event and why? Reining and working cow horse; watching the agility of the American Quarter Horse is like no other. You get to whoop and holler, too!

Do you remember your first horse ride? Yes I do. It is still very clear in my mind. It was a chestnut brown cross-breed horse. What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? Well this was a while ago in the ’50s. I have

started participating in several fairs with animals to compete in conformation, putting aside cattle, barrel races, etc. Recently, I switched over to roundup of cattle races which prevails in the northeast region of Brazil. What is your favorite event and why? Today I am fully concentrated in roundup of cattle events because of the energy that comes from the competition along with the market conditions for this type of event. By the way, I am growing and training Quarter Horses especially to attend this type of event.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? I have to tell that in this category of roundup of

cattle, there are very good competitors either in terms of cowboys and horses, so to beat them, hard training was the key for success.

one of the fairs last year, precisely, in the Paraiba State, he worked like he was putting aside cattle and he passed emotion to the crowd that stand-up and gave him a hand of applause.

Nothing more than keeping me extremely happy because I am doing what I most like to do. What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? To be involved with an intelligent animal,

strong and loyal; in this environment also creates the opportunity to know and be among several people that enjoy the same taste. Make friends and be knowing. We use to say be in a RR – race and relationship. What interested you in owning a show horse? I have several reasons, however the main reason is because I have the opportunity to show the quality of my horse breeding establishment, my brand/stamp and the race. Hobbies: Raise horses besides business is by itself a great hobby, other than that, I like movies, music and books. ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: My other horses have won several honors in

different categories such as young horses, horse congress and national championship. I have raised several animals that had outstanding results in conformation and work. Getting several RMT – Register, Merit and Work.

Horse Association, is concerned with the roundup cattle calendar and is stimulating competitions for young horses, congress and additional tournaments. What are your future goals with this horse? He is a great promise to become a stallion in my horse breeding establishment and he is already recognized as a winning athlete. Who else in your family exhibited horses? My father, father-in-law, brothers-in-law, brothers and sons; just for the record, my grandchildren are starting and are very motivated. Winning words: I would like to thank my first mentors and the dedication of my team that works on my farm because without them, this title would not be possible.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? He reacts instantaneously when requested. What famous person does your horse resemble and why? Well, it drives me back to the Old West cowboys mov-

ies, as well as watching professional champion exhibitions. Who is your mentor and why? Initially, my father was the greater stimulator to keep me involved with horses. After he passed away, I started to be involved with the major Quarter Horse breeders and with the best Brazilian technicians in the roundup cattle category.

seat equitation

YOUR STORY Do you remember your first horse ride?

I don’t really remember my first horse ride. My parents were horse trainers so I was born into this. What year did you acquire your horse? I purchased Coco in 2006 at Congress. He was my 19th birthday present. I had been shopping for a horse all week and hadn’t found anything and was walking to the restroom and saw someone put up a new flyer. What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? My parents were trainers so I was riding when I was very young. I started showing lead line then walk trot. What made you decide to work for this title? Because I came so darn close last year What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The hardest thing was juggling school along

with hauling. I’m a senior at Penn State University and making sure I’m prepared for the showmanship, performance and the classroom was difficult at times.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? My

most memorable moment was December 31, when I found out I won showmanship. I remember Brister Shum and Beckey Schooler had been helping me because the Trein’s were in Florida and I was in Louisiana. Showmanship was down to a matter of a few points and I had a good pattern on the last day but was still nervous if it would be enough. It was because I remember Beckey running across the warmup pen to where Brister and I were standing, waiting for the results of the class. She had news from Florida that I had won. I was excited and we were all hugging and crying. It was an amazing feeling. Describe your horse’s personality: Coco thinks himself to be a person and he is definitely a mama’s boy. Coco is a perfectionist in the show pen and a big teddy bear outside. He loves to eat: horse food, people food and especially peppermints.

on for advice on horses and boys. Darlene stood out in the mud and rain with me countless times as I practiced my show skills. As she would tell anyone, she found me in the mud puddles of Harlansbug, Pennsylvania, and shined me up into something showable! Another mentor would definitely be my mom, Sandy. She’s always been there with me at almost every show to help me and encourage me to do my best. I would never have won this year without her. What interested you in owning a show horse? I was more or less born into the industry. So there wasn’t really anything that got me interested into showing other than the fact they have always been around. Hobbies: Most people in the horse industry don’t know this about me but I am an avid poker player, Texas Hold-’Em, mostly. When I’m home, I usually play in at least four tournaments a week, and it’s something our entire family enjoys. We are a real card-shark bunch. ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: This year, we also ended up winning the high-points in ama-

teur showmanship and equitation. Last year, Coco and I were reserve in winning the amateur all-around and several other different events. We also came in third in 2009 at the AQHA World Show in amateur trail and ninth in showmanship. Recently, Coco was listed as sixth for the all-time point-earning amateur horse with more than 1,800 points, 1,500-plus of those Coco and I put on together. I have showed several other horses before Coco and placed many times at the Congress. List activities in your state/provincial Quarter Horse Association: I have been a member of the Pennsylvania

Quarter Horse Association, Tri-state Quarter Horse Association, Western Pennsylvania Quarter Horse Association and Ohio Quarter Horse Association. Who else in your family exhibited horses? My parents have always shown horses, but my mom has recently started showing in the novice amateur and Select events with Coco. Winning words: I had always thought how cool it must be to be one of those people who would have a chance to haul for this title. Even though it has always been a long-time goal of mine, I never thought I would get the chance to actually pursue it and win. I definitely have to thank my parents for giving me the opportunity to choose my dream, my trainers for giving me all the tools I needed and my Coco for making it come true.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? I think what makes Coco unique is that his biggest goal

is to do the best and to make me happy. Coco is his own biggest critic and when he doesn’t do his best, he takes it to heart. He doesn’t just go through the motions. He throws his heart into it. Who is your mentor and why? I would have to say my mentor is my trainer, Darlene Trein. Darlene is the person I can count Zippos Mr Good Bar Winnie The Tiger Joe Rocket Bug’s Persistence

Do you remember your first horse ride? My mom had

bought me a horse riding lesson from our school auction. We adventured to a small backyard facility, and they had a pony saddled and ready for my longe-line experience. I was hooked in that first hour. What year did you acquire your horse? I bought her August 2007 from trainer Drake Johnson. What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? I have always enjoyed playing sports, so com-

peting with horses was exciting and enjoyable since I was a kid. I began showing reiners once I finished undergraduate college in 2005. What made you decide to work for this title? It was a challenge that I felt ready to work toward with my mare. We got a good start at the National Western Stock Show, and then just continued to attend the local Quarter Horse circuits to school her for the NRHA shows. What is your favorite event and why? Reining has always been a rush for me since my first horse slid through the end gate at a barrel race. The ranch owner came up to me and asked if I knew what reining was, and invited me to learn more at an upcoming local clinic.

That she moves on to teach another non-pro rider how much fun owning and showing a good, solid reining horse can be Winning words: There is no better feeling than being rewarded on a national level for all the hard work and the wonderful partnership I share with my horse.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? Being so consistent with my mares all

year long took a strong commitment. There were many cold snowy days when it was difficult getting up in the dark to haul around the state for the shows, but I was always glad to be there once I made it! What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? Going to the AQHA World Show for the first time

was my highlight.

HORSE: Areal Chic Magnet NICKNAME: Magnet HORSE STATS: 2004 chestnut gelding OWNER/EXHIBITOR: Laurie Shelton, Dripping Springs,

Texas COLLEGES ATTENDED: Saint Edwards University,

Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine DEGREE/MAJOR: B.S. biology, Doctor of Veterinary

Medicine OCCUPATION: Veterinarian SPOUSE: Denman Shelton BREEDERS: John C. and Barbara A. Hencken, Fort Worth,

Texas POINTS EARNED: 7.5 YOUR STORY

The first horse I remember riding was an old sorrel mare I named Candy. I must have been 4 or 5 years old, and that immediately became my favorite place to be; on the back of a horse. What year did you acquire your horse? I bought him in 2008 from J.B. and Sonya Atkins in Nebraska. I bought a horse from them before that was just terrific. When I saw this 4-year old, I knew he would be good, too, and he is. They put great foundations on their horses. Years involved with American Quarter Horses: 30 years What made you want to show horses? I grew up riding and competing in rodeos; it was just what you did with horses in south Texas. When I became a vet, I saw how much fun my clients were having, and I wanted back in. What made you decide to work for this title? I started going to Stock Horse of Texas clinics and shows, and learned a ton about riding and showing. Versatility ranch horse is a natural extension of the SHOT format, so I thought I’d try them, too. What is your favorite event and why? The working ranch horse is my favorite. There are so many variables and layers of difficulty, between the reining, fence work and roping; there’s just no end to all the things you can learn and improve. Do you remember your first horse ride?

What do you think separates your horse from other horses?

He’s so good-minded and quiet, which helps a ton in all the events, but when asked to step up his intensity, like in the cow work, he can answer. What famous person does your horse resemble and why?

Maybe J.R. Ewing; wasn’t he the guy everyone loved to hate? That’s the vibe he seems to create with other horses. Who is your mentor and why? I don’t have anyone one person on which I rely on a regular basis. All the clinicians at SHOT clinics are a huge help. If I had to name a person who had the most influence on my riding, it would be the trainer Gisela Festerling. She managed to work some miracles on me when I would go ride at her place. How has showing horses enhanced your life? I have met some incredibly talented people showing horses. It’s wonderful to get to know and learn from so many great folks. And there’s something about the ranch scene; everyone is so friendly and gracious, it’s a neat place to show. What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? The best thing about owning a Quarter Horse has every-

thing to do with the origins of the breed: the all-around horse. He’s fast enough to catch a cow, pleasant enough to ride down the trail and athletic enough to do it all with style. What interested you in owning a show horse? My main interest was to own a good horse and improve my riding. The next step was figuring out how to go get him shown well. Hobbies: I like to play music, fish, and I always seem to have a few outdoor projects going all at once. ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: 2008 finalist AQHA versatility ranch horse world champi-

onship show Ima Little Tequila What are your future goals with this horse?

I’d like to keep

showing him and maybe try some new events. Winning words: What an honor

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? Denver in January! What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? Showing at

the National Western ranch horse classic was one of the neatest things I’ve been a part of. The logistics there put riders right in the mix with spectators; many of which had never seen a horse in person. It made for many neat interactions. Describe your horse’s personality: He’s like a high school snob; he loves to be around other horses, but only so he can torment them.

ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: Molly won the high-point green working

What are your future goals with this horse?

is to breed her this year through embryo transfer.

My goal

Who else in your family exhibited horses? Both of our daughters, Casey and Ciera, show. They just this year moved up to the amateur division so we will now be competing against each other. Winning words: This award is special this year, as I won the amateur division for the working hunter and Casey, one of my daughters, won the youth division for the working hunter on her horse, Lets Get Started.

How did you find this horse? Chuck Briggs, my trainer, found Molly. Dolly Chayer had bred and raised her and was showing Molly at Congress in hunter under saddle. Chuck is so good at seeing a horse’s potential. Our family totally trusts him in selecting horses for us. What made you decide to work for this title? I started 2010 really well in Florida, winning the high-point amateur English horse for the Gold and Gulf Coast shows but hadn’t really planned on working for this award. Molly and I just really clicked this year and the points went in our favor. What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? I can’t pick just one; there are so many. I love being at

horse shows. Primarily, I love being around family, friends and our horses. Describe your horse’s personality: Wonderful. She is rarely ever crabby like a lot of mares. You just have to know how to handle her, and as long as you treat her like the princess that she is, life is good.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? Wow, that’s hard to say as there are so many good

horses out there that we compete against, but I would have to say her greatest asset is her canter. She has such a pleasant relaxed look about her as she goes around a course. How has showing horses enhanced your life? It is a family hobby, so we are together a lot doing what we love. Hobbies: Animals are my hobby. I love them all and love taking care of them. Outside of that, it is working and traveling.

I remember very clearly because I ended up on my shoulder with my foot caught in the stirrup, while the horse was bucking. Luckily, I didn’t get hurt. What year did you acquire your horse? “Gladys” was originally my daughter-in-law’s horse, and we purchased her as a 3 year-old. What made you want to show horses? My whole family was showing western pleasure horses, and I got tired of always sitting on the sidelines; so in 1991 we bought CC Surprise and I began my show career in pleasure driving. What made you decide to work for this title? It kind of just happened. Darrell and I love showing and competing, and we went a lot of places and luckily had three to five drivers at every show. What is your favorite event and why? Pleasure driving. I have loved the thrill of the class from the very first time I showed in it. Do you remember your first horse ride?

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? Probably just being away from home so much What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? Well it wasn’t fun, but I found out that “buckeyes” are

It seems like bad things happened until I threw the buckeyes as far as I could. Describe your horse’s personality: She’s a big pig. We could probably put a round bale in her stall, and she would have it all eaten by the next day. She can also be a grouch. What do you think separates your horse from other horses?

ist and placed in the top 10 twice at the Select World Shows. What are your future goals with this horse? Show him this year, then either sell him or start breeding him next year Who else in your family exhibited horses? Joshua Kieschnick, my son, showed in youth and then in amateur. He has been top-10 in amateur and a finalist three times.

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? There were shows we went to that didn’t

have enough stallions to get even one half point. That was disappointing.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? It was an adventure to go to shows we never dreamed

we would go to, and to meet so many wonderful people. Describe your horse’s personality: RJ is really easy going, especially for a stallion. If he can eat and sleep, he is happy. What do you think separates your horse from other horses? He is very balanced, really pretty; and traveling and

new surroundings don’t bother him.

Who is your mentor and why? Linda Pigg has been my trainer for three years. She has taught me everything about showing horses and through that, a lot about life in general. I would not have won this award without her help and encouragement.

HORSE: Seven S Docs Sierra NICKNAME: Candyman HORSE STATS: 1999 palomino gelding OWNERS: Roger and Susan Olson, Scottsdale, Arizona EXHIBITOR: Roger K. Olson BREEDER: Terry Stuart Forst, Waurika, Oklahoma POINTS EARNED: 23.5 YOUR STORY

Do you remember your first horse ride? The first time I remember riding a horse, the horse ran off with me and I fell off when he made a sharp turn. For a long time, I wanted nothing to do with horses. What year did you acquire your horse? I bought Candyman in 2002. I was looking for an AQHA Incentive Fund palomino gelding. While showing at the Palomino World Show, my wife heard Chris Littlefield of Stuart Ranch say he had one for sale. Candyman was just what I wanted. What made you want to show horses? What year did you start? I showed some in open roping classes in the

1970s. When the amateur division was created I began showing seriously because I felt that it was perfect for me. What made you decide to work for this title? Both Candyman and I like to rope, and the breakaway was really good to us this year. What is your favorite event? I enjoy heading, heeling and breakaway with no real favorite. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? Wondering if I could hang on and win it.

I had a good lead in June and then went into a slump and could not catch a calf no matter how hard I tried. I felt fortunate to win the year-end award. Describe your horse’s personality: He is very serious about everything and feels the need for speed.

What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? I enjoy being a member of an organization

that promotes horses and keeps track of their breeding and accomplishments. What interested you in owning a show horse? I am a very competitive person and think it is neat to be able to take my horse to a jackpot roping one day and then be able to do well on him at an AQHA show the next day. Hobbies: I enjoy traveling with and without horses, and going to movies. ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: Daylight Pal, 1981 world champion amateur

I would

like to earn six Superior awards. Candyman already has his Superiors in amateur heading, amateur heeling and open heading. He is very close in amateur breakaway, open heeling and amateur barrel racing. I would also like to win the allaround at the Select World. Who else in your family exhibited horses? My wife, Susan, also competes in the amateur heading, heeling, barrel racing and pole bending. Winning words: Candyman is a serious rope horse. He deserves this type of award. I just need to rope well enough to help him earn it.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? He is very athletic with lots of ability and a desire

to please.

How has showing horses enhanced your life?

Working with our horses provides us with pleasure and satisfaction. Traveling with our horses has enabled us to meet and make new friends and see different areas of the country.

placed in the top five several times at the World Show including reserve world champion twice. What are your future goals with this horse?

Dad, my sister Kris (also a world champion) and son Payton. My girlfriend, Doni, is also a very good rider who is just starting out.

turn, accelerate and weave poles faster than any horse I’ve ever seen. Who is your mentor and why? Thirteen-time AQHA champion and NPBA Hall of Famer Ross Carnahan, my dad. He’s been a very good example for me. Fe Fe’s Bug Dodies Bootie Flaming Jet Dashs Doll

Scottsdale, Arizona BREEDERS: William and Kimberly Behrens, Ridgefield, Washington TRAINERS: Jim and Deanna Searles, Scottsdale, Arizona POINTS EARNED: 59 YOUR STORY

My first ride was on a Paint horse named Tomahawk. I was 5 and my friend, our veterinarian’s daughter, was 9. We rode double on a bareback pad around their dirt driveway. What year did you acquire your horse? In July of 2002, I bought Flashy Attraction aka “Ryder,” from Nancy Chapman in California who was training with Casey and April Devitt and Tim Whitney. I had competed against Nancy and Ryder a lot in the California shows we go to, and I couldn’t help but notice what an amazing lead changer he was. Needless to say, they usually beat me. What made you decide to work for this title? My sister, Susan Johns, who won this award last year with Majestic Scotch, gave me the idea of going for this year’s award because the AQHA convention was going to be in Dallas, which is close enough to drive to. What is your favorite event and why? My favorite event is western riding because I love the challenge of getting my timing, and there are only five patterns to memorize. Do you remember your first horse ride?

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The hardest part of winning was trying to beat

the incredibly tough competition in this class. There are multipleworld champion horses and riders in every class at every show. Describe your horse’s personality: Ryder is so funny; he literally has a sense of humor. He always has to entertain himself, and he thinks he also needs to entertain everyone else, too.

and his wonderful sense of humor. He constantly shows me how to be positive, not to sweat the small stuff, and encourages me to keep trying, all the while telling me to have fun. He supports me and makes me feel good about myself even when I mess up. His positive attitude helps me so much. I thank him more than words can say. How has showing horses enhanced your life?

Showing horses makes me happy, and it keeps me going. Showing gives me so much: great friendships, happy times and exercise, both mentally and physically, to keep me feeling younger than I really am. What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? The best thing about owning a Quarter

Horse is their great personalities. Most of their personalities are almost human-like. I swear they can love you back. This breed seems to have great intelligence, too, plus it allows me to meet some of the best people who also own Quarter Horses. Hobbies: I’m enjoying spending time with our sons, but I do enjoy gardening and trying to get plants to grow where they aren’t supposed to do well. I also enjoy reading and playing that darn Angry Birds app. ACHIEVEMENTS

List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: I have won world championships in trail,

hunter under saddle classes.

What are your future goals with this horse? My future goals for Ryder are to cheer on and congratulate his new owners, Taylor, Trent and Mary Lou Searles, and to stand in their win pictures with a big smile on my face. Who else in your family exhibited horses? Our sons, Hayden, who showed a little in his younger years; our son, Harrison, who shows in the NRHA and hopefully when his horse is older, in AQHA reining classes; my sister, Susan Johns, and her three sons, our nephews, Blake, Jeff and Trevor Johns.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? I feel Ryder is very special because he truly loves doing

western riding. He has the happiest expression on his face, and he always has “happy” forward ears and a calm tail. Also, if you watch his top line, it is always level; he never hops up to change a lead. Most of the time, you can’t see him change the lead. Who is your mentor and why? My mentor is not necessarily a show person. It is my husband, Gerard aka “Jerry,” Hotrodders Jet Set Delea Siemon Flashy Zipper Miss Pet Image

Do you remember your first horse ride? My “adopted” uncle took me to ride when I was 5. I loved it. My parents continue to blame him for getting me started. What year did you acquire your horse? I got Paris in 2007 from a fellow Quarter Horse exhibitor. What made you want to show horses? Why would anyone not want to show? I have been showing horses since I was 12. In what events did you compete? This year, I only showed in training level dressage and first level dressage. What made you decide to work for this title?

It is a natural transition to move to dressage from this class. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The physical effort; after showing all-

What famous person does your horse resemble and why? Paris Hilton; she came with that nickname. I have

never seen a horse who loves to have her picture taken more than she does. How has showing horses enhanced your life? It does not enhance my life; it is a part of it. Without it, there would be a big hole where something would be missing.

What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? Their versatility; If you don’t like doing

what you are doing now, the same horse can do something totally different. What interested you in owning a show horse? I enjoy the sport of riding.

This year I would like to repeat my achievement showing at first level dressage. Who else in your family exhibited horses? No one, but they all support me Winning words: I am proud to be recognized for my achievements during the inaugural year of this program.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? Meeting new people; I thought I would be the new

kid at the shows and feel out of place; everyone made me feel very welcome. Describe your horse’s personality: She is sweet and kind and a joy to be around. However, she is red and she is a mare. Do I really need to say more?

one with my horse and to be consistent. We had our ups and downs but I had to stay positive.

They work as hard for everything and would do anything for my brothers and me. They have pushed and encouraged me and have made me the person that I am. How has showing horses enhanced your life? Being able to show horses has been one of the best experiences in my life. It has taught me tremendous responsibility, allowed our family to stay extremely close and allowed me to make lifelong friends. What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? The best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse is

that whenever I have a bad day, I know that I always have my best friend waiting on me at home. Horses are the best listeners and can always make me feel better! What interested you in owning a show horse? I was born into the industry. Growing up, I enjoyed watching my dad and brother Garrett show, and I just couldn’t wait to begin. Hobbies: Outside of showing horses, I am very involved in many school events. I enjoy cheerleading; being a part of our national honor society; and being a part of our Interact club. I also enjoy going to church and being with family and friends. ACHIEVEMENTS

My first horse ride was when I was about 4 years old. My grandpa had bought me and my two older brothers a small pony named “Sparky.” My favorite thing to do was to ride him around in the pasture and afterward braid his mane. What year did you acquire your horse? My parents bought Holly for me at the end of March 2010. We were in Orlando, Florida, for the AQHA Convention with our trainers, Mitch and Jennifer Leckey. One of the days we were there, we decided to drive to Stanley and Susan Scott’s farm in Ocala and look at horses. I rode Holly and immediately fell in love with her and had to have her. What made you want to show horses? Since I was little, I have loved being around horses and riding them. My grandpa bought me my first official horse when I was 8. From there, I began taking lessons at a local horse farm and started to show 4-H in 2005. What made you decide to work for this title? I never expected to win the high-point award. When I first started to show Holly, we were four months and 25 points behind all the other exhibitors. I wanted to nationally qualify for the Ford Youth World and had less than a month to make it happen. Surprisingly, we accomplished that goal in seven days. From that point on, I showed a lot. Do you remember your first horse ride?

What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The hardest thing about winning this award was all

the sacrifices I had to make. Unlike my high school friends, I couldn’t always attend the school activities or sporting events, though looking back I wouldn’t change the past at all. I had a goal set, and I was determined to not fall short in reaching it. Describe your horse’s personality. Holly is very laid back. She is very polite when it comes to eating, and will spend hours eating her hay. However, when she is longed, she is full of spirit and loves to play.

Who is your mentor and why? My mentor is Sandy Walker. Not only is she a great friend but a great role model. Her knowledge about horses is incredible. Her passion and love for showing is extremely inspiring. How has showing horses enhanced your life? Showing horses has opened many great doors for me in life. I have met so many people and friends who make me the person I am today. Also, it has taught me that dedication pays off if you have the drive to accomplish something. What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? The best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse

is the excitement that comes with it. If it’s about the shows we go to or the stories we tell friends, there is nothing boring about it. What interested you in owning a show horse? The thrill of riding a horse interested me in owning a show horse. I love all the things about riding and showing, and it was obvious that I was passionate about it. Therefore, I made my dream a reality and began my show career. Hobbies: When I’m not showing, I love to read and go to sporting events. ACHIEVEMENTS List any national AQHA honors you have won with other horses: I was a finalist with my horse, Wisely Zippen, at the 2008

Ford Youth World in western pleasure. Together, we also placed in the top 10 year-end high-point standings for 2008 and 2009.

List activities in your state/provincial Quarter Horse Association: I have been an active member of OQHYA for the past

four years. During that time, I have been apart of the OQHYA Congress NYATT team and the Ford Youth World team. Who else in your family exhibited horses? My mom and grandpa showed horses. They are the reason why I got started in this industry. Winning words: This past year has been an incredible one that I will always remember. Thank you to everyone who helped in making this dream a reality. A special thanks goes to my mom and dad for all their love and support.

What do you think separates your horse from other horses? The thing that separates my horse from other horses is the bond

that we share. Every time I climb into the saddle, she knows it’s time to work. She never disappoints me and is always ready to give her ultimate best when we enter the show pen. What famous person does your horse resemble and why?

What made you decide to work for this title? I chose to take a gap year between high school and college to pursue this title. What is your favorite event and why? Trail is my favorite event because of the attention to detail it requires on both the horse and rider’s part. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? The most difficult aspect of winning this

award was keeping my horse consistently interested in each trail course while we were on the road.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? I really enjoyed showing at the Sun Circuit last year.

The weather was beautiful, and Ben placed in the top three both days in youth trail. Describe your horse’s personality. Highly intelligent, Ben truly believes he’s smarter than you. He despises people in “his space” and refuses to be longed. Yet, upon entering the ring, Ben keeps his vices to himself and performs 100 percent every time.

Crundwell, Dixon, Illinois TRAINER: James Becker III, Scenery Hill, Pennsylvania POINTS EARNED: 180 for rookie, 180 halter geld-

ing and 180 youth halter/performance halter gelding

What is your favorite event? I love halter, but I am looking forward to trying some more riding classes. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? I didn’t know what the competition was

going to be like as we traveled to many different states.

What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? I showed in many states and met some great people,

and saw things I might have never gotten to see if I was not showing Quarter Horses. Describe your horse’s personality: He is like Dennis the Menace – ornery. You got to keep an eye on him because you never know what he will get into. What famous person does your horse resemble and why? Kid is like Mohammad Ali – he moves like a butterfly

and he stings like a bee.

What are your future goals with this horse? I passed Kid to my sister, Kathryn, who will be hauling for the youth high-point gelding in 2011.

YOUR STORY

Do you remember your first horse ride? The first horse I can remember riding was a 16-hand dun Quarter Horse named Madman. Don’t let the name fool you – he was as gentle as could be. I was in kindergarten. Why I remember him was one day during a lesson he stopped and bent down to get a fly off his leg. The next thing I knew, I was on the ground. I broke my wrist and was in a cast for six weeks. If you are wondering – I did ride him again many times for my lessons. What year did you acquire your horse? We bought Kid from Randy Jacobs in October 2009. My trainer, James Becker, knew that Jacob’s son R.J. showed Kid and that this horse would be perfect for me. What made you want to show horses? I started out taking lessons for fun. Then my mom and sister and I joined 4-H and began showing. In 2007, we leased our first show horse. I was showing in small-fry then. What made you decide to work for this title? When we began our training with Becker Show Horses, the Beckers said I needed to have a goal. We agreed that I could take a shot at winning Justin Rookie for my state. I started out doing well at the Florida Winter Circuit, and things just took off. After a while, I set my goal to also win the youth highpoint gelding for the year, and then to find out I was leading the nation for Justin Rookie was even sweeter.

Do you remember your first horse ride? Earl Kuh, the western artist, used to teach school with my dad, and he would let me ride an old bay mare he called Becky. She was everything a kid could want. What year did you acquire your horse? Dan Churchill raised him here at Circle C Ranch. He’s out of Sweet Swingin Melody, a mare Dan made the non pro futurity finals on.

can lock it up at any speed. Who is your mentor and why? Rob Jacobs

YOUR STORY What year did you acquire your horse? Charlotte Breeze, of Anjon Biologics, put this horse in training with me in January 2010 so that I could start showing her. When I showed her the first time she really impressed me with her fence run. Her ability to read a cow is amazing. What made you decide to work for this title? I wanted an opportunity to qualify this horse as well as two others for the AQHA World Show. What is your favorite event and why? I would have to say that the fence work is my favorite event because of the challenge of accuracy at a high rate of speed. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award? It is such a competitive sport and there are so many great horses in this event. What memorable or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? I have a great time at every show because I am

doing what I love and I am so fortunate to have superior horses to show. Competing at the World Show is definitely one of my most memorable experiences.

What year did you acquire your horse? I saw an ad for him online, and my

YOUR STORY Do you remember your first horse ride? My first ride that I remember was when I was about 3 years old. My sister was leading me on our horse, and I fell off. What made you want to show horses? I love the competition, the travel and the people. I started showing 1974. In 1976, I actually was the International Lead Line Champion on our Pinto Saddlebred. For a little while we showed Saddlebreds and Quarter Horses. When I got into high school and moved into college, I stepped away from the AQHA pen for nearly 20 years and returned in 2003 to show my new horse Classical Halo. Hobbies: Besides the love to travel, I own and operate my own insurance business for the last 11 years. This at times can be difficult when

you show. Many times it is not unusual that I would have to run back in between classes to respond to something that is going on at the office.

Hauling up and down the road. It was hard on my horse and family to be on the road that much. Describe your horse’s personality. Rosie is one of the hardest running

horses I’ve been lucky enough to own. She gives 110 percent every run. She’s an easy keeper but when it’s time to run she’s all business. What do you think separates your horse from other horses? Her heart. She loves her job. How has showing horses enhanced your life? It’s a family affair for us,

YOUR STORY What year did you acquire your horse? I purchased Bo August 2008 from Jerry and Elaine Barrett of Winslow, Indiana. My husband and I saw Jerry run Bo at the National Pole Bending Association Championship show in June 2008. Jerry and Bo won the second division of the kindergarden class (horses 3-and-under). What made you want to show horses? I like the thrill of competing against the clock with my horse. What made you decide to work for this title? I didn’t even realize I was in the running for the limited rider until Jerry mentioned it to me that my name was in The Quarter Horse Journal. What is your favorite event? Pole bending, I like the challenge of weaving thorough six poles as fast as I can without knocking any down. What do you think was the hardest thing about winning this award?

Making sure that Bo and I had smooth, fast and clean runs. Also not knowing how good other people were doing at other shows.

Describe your horse’s personality: Bo is a very

curious and nosey horse. He would like to be in your pocket if at all possible.

What is the best thing about owning an American Quarter Horse? Gaining the achievements with

a breed of such versatility and good mindedness that makes them wonderful companions and competitors ACHIEVEMENTS

YOUR STORY How did you find this horse? In 2008, I bought Paddy. I owned her half

brother, Quaker Oaks, who died tragically in 2007. I contacted his breeder who offered me Paddy as a cutter/broodmare. She was in foal at the time and produced a marvelous colt I have named Charisma. What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? In February 2010 we were caught at an

AQHA show in a blizzard. I had to drive eight hours on a four-hour trip and due to the camaraderie of my fellow competitors they convoyed with me. It must have been an impressive sight, all those rigs together! Describe your horse’s personality. Paddy rules – don’t argue! “Bud” is a pleaser. What do you think separates your horse from other horses? In penning and sorting you develop a partnership of great intensity. You think, and your horse responds, the moment you have to think about riding, you just lost. So to have them as partners has brought me to this level.

YOUR STORY What year did you acquire your horse? We got Johnny in July of 2009. We purchased him from Jack and Karen Patton of Wenatchee, Washington. My husband used to ride the horse, so we knew how special he was. He was purchased with my daughters in mind. What made you want to show horses? I have always been involved in horses. I started showing Arabians in 1981. What made you decide to work for this title? I have always shown allaround horses, so the reining was very new to me and a challenge. Just thought that I would give it a shot and see how it went. What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? I had a great show season this year until

Johnny got hurt. I would have to say most fun and memorable would be watching my girls show and be able to compete on the same horse. It made shows fun and really brought our family together. Describe your horse’s personality: Johnny has a big heart. He is a very regal animal. I think he thinks very highly of himself. He does give us

a lot and takes care of our girls, but also has no problem objecting to things he doesn’t want to do.

YOUR STORY What year did you acquire your horse? My trainer, Laurie Hoopes, came across Micky at a horse show in August 2009. I was just starting to look for a new horse and really wasn’t in a position yet to buy another, but she took one look at his trot and said that we needed to try him out. She knew right away there was something special about him. He went home on her trailer from that show the next day. What made you want to show horses? My mom had shown a little bit when she was younger at open shows, so of course I wanted to do the same. My first horse show was when I was 9 years old, in 1993. What memorable, fun or adventurous experience did you have while exhibiting your horse this past year? In my preliminary round at the AQHA

World Show, I was the first to enter the pen for the amateur hunter under saddle. It was the most amazing feeling to come out of the tunnel and be the only one in the arena for those few moments – all eyes on Micky while the announcer was doing our introduction.

with his teeth hanging out like he’s smiling. He can be really playful too. At one of the shows we were at this past summer, I was sitting in a chair in front of his stall when he decided to grab his water bucket in his teeth, pulled it back as far as he could, then let go, spraying me with all the water from his bucket. I was completely drenched. How has showing horses enhanced your life? It’s a time-consuming hobby, and sure, throughout high school maybe I missed some dances and parties, an in college I spent a lot of weekends at horse shows instead of staying on campus to get the full college experience. But through showing I’ve met a lot of great people and witnessed a lot of amazing rides. Hobbies: Traveling, movies, reading, snow skiing, attempting to learn to golf and trying to find some time when I’m not at work or at a horse show to spend quality time with my very patient and understanding husband.

Equestrians with Disabilities Horses SHINERS ROMEO

YOUR STORY What made you want to participate in equestrians with disabilities events?

Horses of Hope began 14 years ago with the mission that showing would be part of our program. Describe your horse. Romeo has made the change from reiner to therapeutic riding horse fantastically. He has been with us four years, and every year, he seems more and more happy with his new job. Why did you decide to let your horse be used? Marcia Gillespie from Oklahoma donated Romeo to Horses of Hope four years ago. Describe your horse’s exhibitor. Forrest Terry is a tough competitor. No one knows the EWD patterns better then Forrest. Forrest and Romeo weren’t put together as a team until July of this year, so half of our show season was over. With Forrest’s determination and Romeo’s willing attitude, they obviously got things together to end the year on a high! Describe your horse’s personality. Romeo is really very quiet, whether he is out with other horses or being ridden. He never makes waves or a big fuss. despite his feminine appearance with all that mane, he loves to roll in the mud and dirt, which can make cleaning him up for a show

quite a chore! How has participating in equestrians with disabilities events enhanced your life? Our mission

at Horses of Hope is to “physically improve, spiritually enhance and emotionally empower the lives of individuals” and we feel that the EWD events provide an excellent opportunity to help us carry out our mission. Winning words. We are so blessed to have a great horse like Shiners Romeo. But we are even more blessed to have the support of the families and friends of our riders as well as the support of the showing community. The kindness that other competitors and judges show to our riders is amazing and what keeps us coming back for more.

CHIP CHOCOHOLIC

YOUR STORY What made you want to participate in equestrians with disabilities events?

On the recomendation of trainer, Jeff Mellot; he had observed the EWD classes and thought that would be a great thing for Chip to go on to do in his retirement. Why did you decide to let your horse be used? Jeff had watched the EWD events and strongly felt that Chip would be an asset to a program that had riders who competed. His history as a successful show horse had him prepared to do this job. Describe your horse’s exhibitor. Jessie Naaykens is a soft-spoken young lady who loves horses. She spends as much time as she can at the barn riding Chip and helping take care of the other horses. Chip has given Jessie the confidence to try many new things, go for job interviews and

even date! Describe your horse’s personality. Chip is a

feisty horse who loves a freshly bedded stall. He cannot wait to roll in fresh shavings. He also loves to take naps every afternoon. He is now jokingly referred to as the old man of the barn, with his thinning fore top and daily naps. He seems to be OK with the nickname though. He can still kick it up on a longe line like a young colt. What famous person does your horse resemble and why? Chip would be the Clint Eastwood of the horse world. Although he is aging, he is far from a has-been. He is still turning out award-winning performances and showing the youngsters how things are done. Winning words: AQHA should be commended for the addition of the EWD events to its roster of events. Zips Chocolate Chip Chip Chocoholic Ilini Skip Elena

Equestrians with Disabilities Exhibitors FORREST TERRY

Kansas POINTS EARNED: 4.5 Forrest’s story by coaches and mom Do you remember your first horse ride? In Louisana at a therapeutic NARHA center, bareback older horse; Forrest had no fear. He took right to it and has loved riding ever since, taking lessons since that time. He was 5. Riding is his sport – we had been trying other sports to see what he liked, like gymnastics, dance, softball and piano. We knew immediately when he took that first ride on an older, very gentle American Quarter Horse, that riding would be his sport. What year did you start showing? He started showing in fourth grade in the Special Olympics in Louisiana, but that was only once a year. When we moved to Missouri and heard about Horses of Hope, we were so thrilled that they had a show team. Forrest began showing in 2007. He loves being on the Horses of Hope show team and being part of that family. Describe your horse’s personality. Romeo looks like a pretty-boy with his long mane, but he really is rascal! It can be a challenge to keep that white mane and tail looking right when he likes to roll in the dirt.

Who is your mentor and why? Forrest has

many mentors and supporters. He really enjoys working with all of the instructors at Horses of Hope but I think Romeo has been his greatest mentor. Romeo has been very patient and willing while Forrest learned to ride him and he really came through in a pinch when Forrest had to change horses mid-stride this year. Hobbies: Singing, dancing, driving Papa around on the Gator to do farm/ranch chores, and the computer. Winning words: Competition in the Equestrians With Disabilities division has been very rewarding for Forrest and has provided a vehicle for him to learn and exhibit independence. This division has provided a perfect avenue for him to continue to grow and develop beyond his school years. We have all benefited from the experience.

Sweet Redemption

Lindsey Stevenson and RL Cocoas Version secure the 2010 A≤HA Amateur All-Around High-Point title. By Tanya Randall

in 2009, lindsey stevenson and rl cocoas version battled

Daniel Carlson and Are You Charlie for the coveted title of Featherlite AQHA Amateur All-Around High-Point Champion. On December 29, it looked like the title belonged to Lindsey, but with one day left to show, Daniel triumphed in the year-long, see-saw battle. “Talk about motivation,” quips a redeemed Lindsey, who hit the road again in 2010 to see if she could secure the title. The Penn State senior and her super senior gelding not only claimed the 2010 all-around title, but garnered high-point

136 A P R I L

2 0 1 1 THE AMERICAN QUARTER HORSE JOURNAL

championships in hunt seat equitation and showmanship. They also finished second in trail, third in horsemanship and ninth in performance halter geldings in the year-end standings. In their four years together, Lindsey and RL Cocoas Version have collected 1,381 amateur points and have earned a place among AQHA’s all-time leading point-earning pairs.

The Long Haul going from one year-long race into another was a

daunting task, plagued with potential burn out.

“After being second and so close to winning it the year before, going from hauling for one whole year right into hauling for another whole year,” Lindsey reflects, “in the spring, I was at a point where I didn’t know if this is what I really wanted to do. I wanted a break, a weekend off.” During the week at Penn State, the temptation was strongest, as it was at horse shows far from home where she knew few of the competitors. Yet, once she got back to familiar territory with her family of horse-show friends, her motivation returned. Her university schedule also added pressure, but luckily, her journalism major with a business minor played into her hands. “Being a journalism major, I really didn’t have that many exams, mostly papers that were due,” she explains. “I could do my work at the horse shows, since most everything was due online. It also helped that I didn’t have any classes on Friday.” Lindsey thinks people don’t realize how much time exhibitors must devote to showing when chasing a high-point title. She didn’t – at first. “I didn’t realize how hard it was going to be to juggle school and the horse showing and having a social life and everything,” she says. “It’s every weekend. It’s pretty much all you end up thinking about for that whole year.”

The Perfect Fit the one thing that lindsey didn’t have to spend a lot of

time worrying about was her ever-dependable mount and allaround machine, RL Cocoas Version. Bred by Roby Roberts of Reddick, Florida, RL Cocoas Version is a 1997 gelding by Good Version and out of Miss Cocoa Rocket by Joe Rocket. Lindsey purchased the gelding from Katie Jo and Eloise Jones at the 2006 All American Quarter Horse Congress. She had been at the event looking for a suitable all-around contender, when she saw a flier for “Cocoa.” “I had just come from looking at another horse that we ended up not getting,” she recalls. “I was walking to the bathroom and saw someone putting up fliers. I had looked at the fliers all week, so I went over and looked, and it was for Cocoa.” Lindsey first saw her future champion in the warm-up pen, and it was readily apparent that he’d been taking some time off. “He was this burnt orange color and had hair that was like an inch-and-half thick, and he had an extra hundred pounds on him; he looked like he was going to foal any day!” she laughs. When Lindsey got on him, it was magic. “I did a couple of lead changes, and said, ‘I want this horse.’ I knew right away that this was the horse for me,” says Lindsey, who celebrated her 20th birthday that day. The next morning, she got a sunrise phone call from her mother. “My mother called me and said, ‘Happy birthday!’ ” she laughs, “and I was like, ‘Mom, it was yesterday. Really, you’re forgetting what day my birthday is?’ She say, ‘No, but your present’s here.’ That’s when we got Cocoa.”

Born Showman lindsey,

23, grew up in a horse family. her parents, bill and Sandy Stevenson, trained horses professionally before she was born. “They gave up training when I was born,” she says. “They still have a breeding facility there. They don’t stand any studs anymore; it’s mostly a shipped semen facility.” While her parents were responsible for getting her started

in her show career, it was her trainers, AQHA Professional Horsemen Dan and Darlene Trein of Seville, Ohio, who got her started showing for the all-around. “Darlene put the polish to me,” Lindsey says. And Cocoa made her shine. After spending one year in the Treins’ barn, the gelding went to live with Lindsey’s parents. “I was very lucky that Cocoa’s the kind of horse that can stay at home, get turned out – my mom will longe him sometimes – put him on the trailer and go to the horse show and be right there with me every time,” Lindsey says. “He doesn’t need the constant work, the constant riding that a lot of horses do. When he gets to the shows, he gets right to work. He knows his job and doesn’t give me any problems at all.” Lindsey’s favorite event is horsemanship, but it might not be Cocoa’s. “I like the different components to the patterns,” she says. “I also like the outfits. If you ask Cocoa, though, I’m sure his favorite event is trail. He loves trail. Or halter. He usually gets to eat snacks during the halter, so he likes that, too.” Ironically, they won a high-point title in hunt seat equitation, an event that Lindsey says is Cocoa’s weakest. “I say that because I have to hold onto Cocoa so much, and he doesn’t like that,” she explains. “He doesn’t like to have a lot of contact. He likes to be able to do his own thing a little bit. He prefers western. He thinks he looks like a sissy in that English saddle.” Making the all-around and high-point titles even more special was the fact that many people didn’t think RL Cocoas Version was still capable of showing at such a high level because of his age, 14, and history. “The first show I went to everybody was like, ‘Cocoa has a new rider,’ ” she laughs. “It wasn’t Lindsey has a new horse; it was Cocoa has a new rider. People would say, ‘Oh, I had that horse in training.’ I thought, ‘Oh, great, my horse is more popular than me!’ ”

New Beginnings if all goes “according to plan,” lindsey will graduate

this spring. She thinks her business minor will play a bigger role in her career path, and she hopes to find a job that will allow her to continue showing. “I’d like to start as a sales rep at a company and work my way up,” she says. “A good friend of mine, Beckie Peskin, who shows with Robin Frid, works for Merial, and that’s more the career I want to go to, where the horses can be part of my job, but not my entire job. I want to keep my horse showing on the side so it’s always my ‘fun’ and never my job. I also want to have something that relates to it.” In the arena, Lindsey is already working on her future partner. Last year, she began showing Nothing But My Best in western pleasure. “I’m going to start showing him in showmanship and horsemanship this year,” she says. “This year is going to be more relaxed, getting a new horse into the swing of things.” As for RL Cocoas Version, Lindsey says he is for sale, and her mother might show him some to keep him in the public eye. “I’ve got this young horse coming along,” Lindsey says, “and he’s coming along pretty good, but he’s never going to be like Cocoa. I’m not trying to replace Cocoa, because there isn’t a replacement for Cocoa to me. Cocoa is my perfect match.” Tanya Randall is a special contributor to The American Quarter Horse Journal.

Molli Lyn Jacobs and Radical McCue wrap up the Featherlite A≤HA Youth All-Around High-Point title.

A

at the 2001 aqha convention, master of ceremonies tom

Persechino called Molli Lyn Jacobs to the stage twice. The precocious horsewoman from Dover, Ohio, won the 2000 Justin Rookie 11-and-under championship and was highpoint in youth halter geldings with Inevitably A Mr. On stage, the 8-year-old was asked what she wanted to do next, since she had accomplished so much at such a young age. Her answer, “I want to ride. My dad’s a halter horse trainer, and I want to ride.” In 2010, Molli rode her way into AQHA history books as the Featherlite AQHA Youth All-Around High-Point Winner with Radical McCue. They also collected youth high-point titles in showmanship and performance halter geldings, and finished third in trail, fourth in horsemanship and fifth in hunt seat equitation.

she says. “He always knew what was coming next. You always had to do something different when you were warming him up and not work through the entire pattern. In the beginning, he would get nervous, but as we started to do better, he became more calm. It ended up being one of my favorite classes with him.” Next to winning the all-around title, the showmanship title was right up there on Molli’s to-do list. Seeing her win both made her father “doubly proud.” “I think if it had come down to it, if she had lost the showmanship, it would have broke her heart,” says Randy, who credits his own experiences in the class as a youth with making him the showman he is today. “She really wanted that class. Once she had the all-around wrapped up, she said, ‘I want to win the showmanship. That’s my class.’”

like most high-point contenders, molli and cue eased into

and wife Holli grew up in her family’s halter horse operation. Randy suspects his daughter’s love of riding came from her mother. “My wife showed a lot when she was younger,” says Randy, noting that was how they met. “Molli’s definitely followed in her mom’s footsteps in her ability to ride and do well at it.” “Ever since I was little, I always wanted to ride,” says 18-year-old Molli. “Everybody gave my dad a hard time about it.” Randy says he did take some pretty good razzing from his fellow trainers, but shortly after Molli made her announcement at the 2000 convention, he found her the perfect horse – Sit Back N Cadillac. “He was my dream horse,” Molli recalls. “He was a saint.” Randy says he was looking for a very broke horse that would teach Molli how to show, and he found that in Sit Back N Cadillac. “We wanted something that was going to pique her interest and keep her interested,” Randy says. “We didn’t want to start out with a young horse and get her scared, because I’ve seen that happen too many times. That horse taught her a lot about riding. Looking back, you could say it was the best thing we did, or the worst thing, because it developed a life-long interest in showing.”

the year. “In the beginning of the year, we didn’t show as much because we were still trying to figure out if we were going to be running for the title or not,” she explains. “We were just seeing how things were. As the year progressed, we were doing well, so we decided to go for it. We were up and down the roads quite a bit. We only got a few weekends off here and there.” Their high-point journey took them through 16 states. Even when Randy’s clients’ horses stayed home, the Jacobs family was off to a show somewhere. “The stress involved with going week after week at times was overwhelming,” Randy says. “Not that we didn’t enjoy

with Radical McCue, aka “Cue.” Bred by Robert and Ann Perry, of Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, Radical McCue is a 2000 bay gelding by Radical Rodder and out of Jetterri McCue by Tuff Joe Jet. “He’s very athletic and very strong,” says Molli, a high school senior at Garaway High School in Sugarcreek, Ohio. “You could put him through anything, and he’s going to come out stronger than before.” Molli says showmanship was her favorite class with the gelding. “He’s amazing at it,” she says. “It was the first class that really clicked for us, and it was a lot of fun to show.” Although it took them longer to figure each other out, horsemanship also became one of her favorites. “One of the things that we had to do was work through mind games with him, because he’s so smart,” JOURNAL PLUS A P R I L 2 0 1 1

it, but to go week-in and week-out like that takes its toll.” Throughout the year, Molli showed under the direction of Tommy, Beckey Schooler and Bruce Vickery. “Tommy actually placed Molli with the horse, and without him, we wouldn’t have the horse,” Randy says. “Bruce helped her a little bit through the summer. Beckey Schooler went above and beyond to help Molli. We couldn’t have done it without the three of them.” Molli also had her dad’s expertise to draw on. “He went with me to most of the shows,” she says. “One of the things I used to have a problem with was I would never completely show. I always wanted to be correct and show safe. He told me if I ever really wanted to win anything big, I needed to go for it and trust in my horse.” During the summer, the family showed together – Molli, her dad, and younger brother, R.J. At the 2010 Built Ford Tough AQHYA World Championship Show, Molli won the world championship in 2-year-old halter mares with RTH Style And Grace, while her brother won the title in 2-yearold halter geldings with Happy Hour. The year provided “memories of a lifetime,” Randy says. “I’ve got three boys, and she’s my only daughter. She’s always been a daddy’s girl. It’s sure going to be hard to send her off to school, but I sure enjoyed the time we got to spend together going to horse shows.”

champion equestrian team. “Since I was in middle school, A&M has always been my dream school,” she says. “My mom went with me to visit, and we really loved the down-to-earth atmosphere and how everyone seems really genuine. The school has many traditions. Even their academic programs are very good. And, they have a great team on top of that.” Molli plans on majoring in biomedical science. She hopes to attend pharmacy school following her undergraduate education. She’s not sure how much showing she’ll be doing once she’s at Texas A&M. Cue was sold to Kelsey Urban, but Molli plans on finishing her youth career with a new horse, Taylored By Deluxe. “I’ll at least show through the summer and at my last (Ford) Youth World,” she says. “I know I’m going to have a heavy load at school, so I figured I’d just wait and see.” Looking back, the expense and the miles of showing in exchange for a college education is a fair deal, Randy says. “The only thing I can say is with the kind of scholarship she got from A&M, it will more than pay for the money we spent hauling and training,” Randy says. “It’s not cheap (to show), but I don’t know how you could raise your kids any better. It gives kids something to do and keeps them off the streets. She’s going to get a college education out of the whole deal.” Tanya Randall is a special contributor to The American Quarter Horse Journal. To comment, write to [email protected].

Four Bonnie Bay Michael and Kim St. Clair’s Four Bonnie Bay wins the 2010 Featherlite A≤HA Open All-Around High-Point title.

W

when mike st. clair of kahoka, missouri, purchased an

unruly yearling colt at the Haythorn Land & Cattle Co.’s 2006 production sale, he was looking for a future superstar that once proven would set Mike’s breeding program above the rest. In 2010, Four Bonnie Bay exceeded Mike’s expectations with five AQHA high-point titles, including the coveted Featherlite Open All-Around High-Point. “He’s just one those horses that we may never have another one (of) that good in a lifetime,” Mike says. “He has done pretty good for us. I don’t have a trophy room big enough!”

Purchased Promise mike and his wife, kim, started out in the horse business

in 1980 with a granddaughter of Cutter Bill, which they lost just four years ago. As their family grew – they have four grown daughters and three grandchildren – so did their horse operation. Today, they have a herd of 50 mares and six stallions, along with several young horses in training. Each fall, St. Clair Farms partners with five other ranches for an annual production sale, the Nebraska Quarter Horse

By Tanya Randall Classic, in Ogallala. Mike typically has nine to 10 finished horses in the sale as well as another 10 to 15 that have been started in the roping arena. This year’s sale is August 27. Four Bonnie Bay, affectionately known as “Spur,” is part of Mike’s plan to improve the marketability of his horses at the production sale. “We felt like we had to differentiate ourselves in today’s market and show that our horses can really do something,” Mike explains. So he made a call to Craig Haythorn, looking for a stallion prospect. Haythorn Land & Cattle Co. won the inaugural presentation of the AQHA-Pfizer Best Remuda Award, which is presented to a ranch in recognition of its ranchraised and -used American Quarter Horses. “I called Craig and said, ‘We’re going to have to step up,’ ” he says. “I’ve got to get some younger stallions and show them to promote the program. I need a horse that’s going to be an athlete that I can go show and win. He told me, “I got the horse for you, but he’s not very people-friendly.’ ” It didn’t take long for Spur to lose his ranch-raised wildness. As a 2-year-old, the son of Figure Four Chex out of Bay

Bonnie Raindrop, an Eddie Eighty daughter out of a Driftwood Ike mare, went to Brad Wilson in Arthur, Nebraska, to prepare for the Haythorn Futurity. (Brad, a familiar exhibitor at the Working Ranch Cowboys Association finals, has been named the top hand at the World Championship Ranch Rodeo three times and has led his team to five world championships.) The Haythorn Futurity is an event that is a combination of reined cow horse and working ranch skills. Although the stallion won a little money, he didn’t do as well as Mike had hoped. After the futurity, Mike sent Four Bonnie Bay to AQHA Professional Horseman Luke Jones, who is a reined cow horse and rope horse trainer in Allerton, Iowa. The stallion took to the roping events like a duck to water. “He was extremely natural,” Luke says. “He’s very goodminded, has a lot of run and a lot of stop.” Luke took Four Bonnie Bay to eight shows as a 4-year-old, earning a performance Register of Merit and qualifying for the AQHA World Championship Show. Spur also caught the attention of master showman and roper AQHA Professional Horseman J.D. Yates of Pueblo, Colorado.

Big-Time Contender at the tulsa holiday winter circuit, j.d. struck up a

conversation with Luke, telling him that he thought Spur could be a serious contender for the junior high-point allaround title. “I thought he was a big, strong horse that was very talented

in all the roping events,” J.D. says of watching Four Bonnie Bay. “He’s the kind I like, the kind I want to rope on anywhere – jackpots, rodeos or horse shows.” As it turned out, Luke had one too many junior horses to show while J.D. only had one. After meeting with Mike at a show in Nebraska, a plan was hatched. Luke would train and haul the horse, and J.D. would show him. “When I got on him, he felt as good as he looked,” J.D. says. “Luke should get all the credit. All I did was pilot the horse at the shows. Good horses will show themselves. All you got to do is not miss on them. He’s that kind of horse.” Although J.D. said the plan was to “play it by ear and see how things went,” Spur had 350 points won by June. That gave Luke the opportunity to jackpot rope on the horse during the summer. At the 2010 AQHA World Championship Show, a little hiccup in the tie-down roping took the stallion out of the Farnam Superhorse running. He still finished fourth in the junior heading and third in the junior heeling. “We were happy with that,” Mike says. “J.D. and Luke told me as hard as they’d been riding the horse and as much as we were showing him, it was going to be a little harder to win something at the World Show because we were riding him in so many events.” But by year’s end, the stallion had captured the junior and open all-around honors as well as the title of high-point tiedown roping stallion, open and junior high-point heading horse, and high-point open heeling horse. He was also in the

JOURNAL PLUS A P R I L 2 0 1 1

top 10 in performance halter stallions. “It turned out to be a good deal for all of us,” Luke says, “J.D. and I and the owner. Jay Wadhams roped the other end for us all year, and we couldn’t have done it without him, either.”

What the Future Holds in just two shows, four bonnie bay has already qualified

for the 2011 World Show in performance halter stallions, and heading and heeling. He lacks a handful of points to qualify in tie-down roping. The plan is to make another run at the Superhorse title. “He’s actually going to come home this spring and breed some mares,” says Mike, who serves as the director of manufacturing for Griffin Wheel, a division of railway wheel manufacturer Amsted Rail. “Luke wants to take him and rodeo a little on him this summer. Then we’ll take him to the World Show.” The stallion’s first foal crop hit the ground in 2008. “I’ve got seven 3-year-olds by Spur,” Mike says. “We’ve rode all the geldings, and every one of them is an athlete. We’re getting ready to show one right now. Luke has three of them, and I told him to pick the best one.” Luke will also be showing Mike’s next performance stallion,

Boonlight Wilson, a 4-year-old son of Boonlight Dancer and out of Roosters Cute Wilson, a money-earning daughter of Gallo Del Cielo. “We’re spending our money to really get this one promoted this year,” Mike says. “We had him at one futurity last year, and he placed in the top 10. I want to show him a couple of times, get (a Register of Merit) on him and see what he can do.” Like Four Bonnie Bay, Boonlight Wilson will be showing in heading, heeling and tie-down roping. Mike said having Spur win the year-end all-around title was by far the most gratifying victory. “The all-around probably means the most to us,” he says. “He stayed sound through this whole thing, and I think that says a lot. When I look at a horse, I’m looking for that all-around horse that can take the pounding over and over again, being on the road and still be successful show after show after show. “To win the World Show, you win one show. To win the high-point, you have to compete against those same horses that are at the World Show over and over again – and you have to beat them.” Tanya Randall is a special contributor to The American Quarter Horse Journal.

amazing, isn’t it, where the american quarter horse can

take us? We can ride back in time … or to a peaceful place where the suffering in our life doesn’t exist … or we can ride the hills like an 11-year-old cowboy, astride a trusted friend. Read on to meet three AQHA members whose Quarter Horses have transported them to those places – and who, along the way, have logged 5,000 hours in the saddle, earning them the top award in the AQHA Horseback Riding Program and a custom Montana Silversmiths belt buckle. The Horseback Riding Program rewards participants for spending time in the saddle, no matter whether it’s for work or play, and awards start at the 25-hour level. There’s a division for folks who ride American Quarter Horses and another one that’s open to all breeds. Where could time in the saddle take you?

James Fairbourn and Surf N Beer

Go West, Young Man! james l. fairbourn of provo, utah, earned his hours the

old fashioned way – literally. It all began in 1993 when he challenged himself with a very special goal. “My ancestors were Mormon pioneers who came out West in wagon trains in the mid-19th century,” James says. “I’ve always admired them, so I made it a goal of mine to follow their trail on horseback – just as some of them traveled – in honor of the 150th Mormon Trail anniversary in 1997.” Such a challenge required a horse who could be ridden in all weather and terrain, and who was brave enough to cross wild waters. James went to a friend, American Quarter Horse breeder Ron Pace, seeking such a horse. “He lined me up with this colt named Surf N Beer, aka ‘Bud,’ that he was certain could develop the toughness and stamina to carry a rider 1,100 miles – from Omaha, Nebraska, to Salt Lake City – in only two to three months, just like the pioneers,” James says. “Ron told me, ‘That’s a horse that’ll never quit ya!’ And Bud has proven that statement dozens of times over.” James took the 2-year-old colt home and began training for their arduous journey. “I spent hundreds of hours training Bud for everything I knew we would face on our journey. We rode day and night in all kinds of weather, on dirt trails or gravel roads. … I had to get him used to all kinds of terrain, crossing railroad tracks and bridges and fording streams and rivers.” As Bud learned to tackle the elements like a pioneer’s mount, James went to Ron’s son, Weston Pace, to learn how to do his own blacksmith work. Not only was shoeing Bud a practical skill, but James also began paying attention to how many miles a set of shoes would last. “Then I prepared shoes with borium on the heels and toes to get some extra mileage,” James says. James, an AQHA member, had been training for three years when he learned about the Horseback Riding Program. “It seemed to me that the goal of riding 5,000 hours lined up nicely with my own goal, so I signed up,” James says. And even though he had already spent many hours in the saddle, James started logging from zero – “same as everybody else in the program.” As James’ pioneer challenge approached, he learned of other folks who had the same goal and were forming a wagon train to leave Omaha in late April 1997. Joining up with them, James and Bud became outriders on that wagon train, helping out the teamsters with any of their needs, like run-

ning errands and messages from one part of the line to another. “Our four years of training for that journey paid off, as Bud was among the best-prepared, toughest and most athletic of the horses making the trek to Salt Lake,” James says proudly. “And Bud was the only horse of that company that swam across rivers like pioneer horses had to do! We swam across the Sweetwater and Green rivers in Wyoming, which were running unusually high that summer.” Completing their journey, James was amazed at how many hours he spent in the saddle. “It never occurred to me to do the math ’til this year (2010), but I found out that 5,000 hours is greater than all the hours of daylight in a year. What a shocker!” Yet James insists it’s time well spent and was an educational experience. Since logging more than 300 hours on their Mormon Trail adventure, he and Bud have taken up other historical challenges. “Bud and I have been participating in the annual Pony Express re-rides for the past few years,” he says. “We carried the mochila (mail bag) five times on June 16th for a total of 14 miles through central Wyoming – all at the lope! Not bad for a 19-year-old horse packing more than 250 pounds of rider, saddle and mail.”

Horseback Riding Program. After learning about the program on RFD-TV, Colby signed up because he “likes to ride as much as possible.” With his red horse, Harmon Redberry, or “Rusty,” Colby spends his hours participating in rodeo and 4-H events and riding around cattle on the famed Four Sixes Ranch in Guthrie, Texas. Although his hometown is flat with a lot of wheat ground, Colby likes riding Rusty around McLean, Texas, where he says there are “rough surroundings.” A cowboy on the range needs a trusty horse, and Colby knows he has that in the 12-year-old Rusty. “I purchased him 3 1/2 years ago from Jack Horn of Coleman, Texas,” Colby says, “and he takes good care of me.” Colby remembers one time he knew he could rely on his chestnut gelding. “I rode Rusty down a mountain no one had gone down before. … We were jumping bear grass when I fell off, and my stirrup flipped to the wrong side with my foot caught in it. But Rusty just stopped,” Colby says. When asked if he was surprised by how many hours he spent in the saddle, Colby says, “Yes, I like to ride, but I didn’t realize how much!”

would still be up – so she’d go out and ride. “Instead of bringing the horses back to the barn to saddle up, I’d just go into the pasture with a rope halter and climb on my bay mare,” she says, referring to 16-year-old Oquinns Parr Three, a mare she bred and raised. A self-employed farmer, Mildred would then inspect her Magnolia, Mississippi, property by horseback, checking fences and timber until dawn when “the world wakes up.” These early morning rides became something spiritual to Mildred. “On cloudless nights, when I go out, all the stars are twinkling … I get on my mare and ride into the middle of the open pasture, put my head back on her rump and try to find all the constellations,” she says. “No matter what happens later, I’ve had a good day.” As she began riding every morning, a friend who earned the 5,000-hour award in the Horseback Riding Program told Mildred about the experience. “I didn’t look into it, but then I saw the buckle she earned. … I was still riding every day, so I signed up,” Mildred says. Troubled about her husband’s illness, Mildred focused on the 5,000 hours as a positive and attainable goal. She already began her days riding, but now she made time in the evenings to saddle up. “Sometimes, at the end of the day, when I’m so tired it’s hard to put one foot in front of the other, I just sit a few seconds on the back of my mare and feel the tiredness melt away,” Mildred says. After her husband died last year, Mildred thought she’d quit her early morning rides, but she realized she has “become addicted.” “These horses give me so much joy … it’s a spiritual thing,” she says, adding that she signed up for the program again and looks forward to another 5,000 hours of riding. Besides riding at home, Mildred takes her horses to local shows for her great-grandsons to ride in the walk-trot classes. She also provides her horses for mentally disabled riders to show.

PH OTOS COURTESY OF KATHERINE TILLISO N

“on one of the latter rides, there was a lady who had driven, by herself, all the way from California with a rented horse and trailer,” says Katherine Tillison, remembering an AQHA trail ride in Davis, Oklahoma. “I, of course, wanted to win the (AQHA Frequent Trail Rider Award), but at that point I thought, ‘Oh well, I might as well just forget that aspiration!’ ” Yet Katherine did win the award, a Tex Tan saddle, which honored her for attending more AQHA rides than anyone else in 2010. “I just had a little talk with the Lord, saying, ‘If I can win it, great, but if not, I totally understand,’ ” Katherine says with a laugh, “because I can’t compete with people who fly or those who rent horses here and there. My horse traveled

everywhere I did.” And they covered a lot of miles. Katherine and her 11-yearold black mare, Decks Last Black, or “Saffy,” went on 13 AQHA trail rides in seven states, including Oklahoma, Texas, Iowa, Colorado, Kansas, Missouri and Arkansas. “When you get to go to different parts of the country and see the different spectacular views, it’s just impossible not to marvel at what God’s made for us,” says the Wellston, Oklahoma, resident. Although she’s just a regular rider out on the trail, it’s Katherine’s exceptional gratitude that could be the driving force behind her win. She sees each trail ride as an opportunity to appreciate “what God has created for us, if we’d just stop and look at it.” “It reminds me of my little granddaughter (who), when she was 3 years old, would pick the tiniest flower and say, ‘Look, Mammy!’ (Trail riding) is appreciating something I would have previously just walked by and never noticed,” Katherine says. And each trail ride of 2010 offered something wonderfully different. “Iowa’s fall foliage was just beautiful, and there were rock bluffs and river crossings – not just streams but really a river,” Katherine says of the Scenic View Ranch in Monona. Elk ambled by as the riders rode through the woodlands, then she and her husband, Andrew, took a stagecoach ride before camping. “It was a lovely campsite, right on the river, and October’s weather was just perfect.” Yet her favorite ride of 2010 was at the Hoot Owl Ranch in Kenton, Oklahoma. A trail rider for years, Katherine began attending AQHA rides in 2007, and she has forged many friendships. “That ride consisted of close friends we’ve acquired from these AQHA rides. There were wonderful campfire stories, with entertainment from Geff Dawson, a cowboy poet, singer, guitar player, genuine ranch cowboy from Kansas … a real authentic, fun person to be around,” Katherine says. They also got to round up cattle at a neighboring ranch. “Saffy actually was used on a giant cattle feeding operation called Weborg Farms of Bridgeport, Nebraska, so she’s familiar with the cattle work,” says Katherine, who picked up the mare as a 4-year-old at an auction. “I chose her from 350 Quarter Horses at that auction. It was a three-day event, and I met the cowboy who rode her on the cattle-feeding operation,” she says. “We were just a match, and I’ve never regretted it.” Katherine remembers the first time she tried buying a Quarter Horse. “My grandmother knew how badly I wanted a horse and was determined to get me one,” she says. “My grandparents took me to

an AQHA show when I was 7 or 8 years old … I had saved up $20 from doing chores on their farm, and my grandfather asked a man there how much $20 would buy – this was in the 1960s – and the man said, ‘Maybe a front leg!’” Katherine says with a laugh. “I was so discouraged; I thought I’d never be able to afford one!” After starting out with a pony named “Charlie Brown,” Katherine finally got her first Quarter Horse named “Taffy.” Since then, she has never been without horses. Katherine raised her daughter with horses, and now they’ve passed the love on to her granddaughters. “I think girls are prone to being bitten by the horse bug, which stays with them for life,” Katherine says. “I’ve heard a saying – bless the heart of a husband who marries a horseloving wife, because it’s not just the horse but the tack and trailer and whole gambit of expenses that come with it!” Katherine was blessed with such a husband, who actually went on many of the 2010 trail rides with her. “My 1-in-a-million husband kept everything running and had a good attitude toward helping me achieve my goals,” she says. It was a goal she happily marked off her “bucket list.” Katherine will keep on riding. And although she appreciates the simple things in life, she now allows herself a few luxuries – like a horse trailer with living quarters. “We had to rough it for many years,” she says. “My husband, for the longest time, would say, ‘There’s nothing like a wood stove!’ But whenever you get somewhere at night, and you’re freezing to death, it’s nice to have a heater that just automatically comes on!” To learn more about AQHA trail rides and see the schedule of 2011 events, visit www.aqha.com/riding.

Since the beginning, the King Ranch has been breeding American ≤uarter Horses for ranch duty. By Becky Newell

F

for just under 2 cents an acre, capt. richard king

established the King Ranch in the early 1850s with the purchase of 15,000 acres in south Texas. The Kleberg name entered the family tree just a generation later when Robert Justus Kleberg, an attorney who had handled the Captain’s business matters, took over management of the ranch after the Captain’s untimely death. “When (the Captain) died, he and his wife, Henrietta, had put together 600,000 acres, which was unbelievable for that time,” says Capt. King’s great-great-grandson and AQHA Past President Stephen J. “Tio” Kleberg. A year after the captain’s death, Robert married Alice, Capt. and Mrs. King’s daughter. Robert and Alice had five children: Richard “Dick” Mifflin, Henrietta Rosa, Alice Gertrudis, Robert “Bob” Justus Jr. and Sarah Spohn. However, it was Dick and Bob Jr. who, with their mother, continued what Capt. King started. Dick became a lawyer and politician who made the King Ranch name well known on the East Coast. When the boys’ father became ill in 1916, 21-year-old Bob came home from college to run the ranch. Bob Kleberg Jr. loved King Ranch. But more than that, he loved the science of genetics. As a result, the breeding of horses – specifically, American Quarter Horses – became his passion. When Capt. King was alive, there were times when horses numbered in the tens of thousands on the ranch. But they were predominantly Thoroughbreds. They were good horses, but they didn’t have the mind, agility and cow sense that was needed on King Ranch, Bob reasoned. He thought Quarter Horses or Quarter Horse-Thoroughbred crosses that retained the Quarter Horse conformation were more suited for ranch work.

The Sport of Kings breeding and racing thoroughbreds was a backdoor means

for Dick and Bob Kleberg Jr. to access financial institutions on the East Coast. “When King Ranch was going through its tumultuous times after Mrs. (Henrietta) King’s death, there weren’t any large financial institutions in Texas,” Tio says. “My grandfather, Dick Kleberg Sr., and Bob Kleberg had to go to the East Coast – New York and Boston – to get funding for the ranch.” As it turned out, most of the big names involved in the East Coast banks were also heavily involved in Thoroughbred racing. “ ‘How do you get to the finances? You get involved in racing,’ my grandfather reasoned,” Tio says. “Actually, my grandfather and Uncle Bob were intrigued by racing. They loved the breeding aspects and the challenge of producing horses for racing.” For novices, they did all right. “In 1943, the ranch produced Assault (TB),” Tio says. “He

Stephen “Tio” Kleberg

was a clubfooted horse that had gotten injured on a surveyor’s stake.” The ranch’s vet recommended putting the colt down. “But my grandfather and Bob Kleberg said, ‘No, let’s run him,’ ” Tio says. “They probably had a side bet on whether he could run at all.” In 1946, Assault won Thoroughbred racing’s Triple Crown, the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes. Four years later, the ranch campaigned Middleground, who won the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont and finished second in the Preakness. The ranch divested itself of the Thoroughbred program after Bob Kleberg’s death in 1974.

The Quarter Horses long before the ranch began its successful but short-lived

Thoroughbred breeding program, Bob was breeding Quarter Horses, looking for the right combination of genetics. And it all began with a sorrel colt that the Kineños called el Alazan Viejo, or the Old Sorrel. In 1915, Bob visited George Clegg’s ranch at Alice, Texas, and was shown a band of mares and foals that George was particularly proud of. The mares were Thoroughbreds, and the foals were all by a one-eyed son of Peter McCue named Hickory Bill. Bob was impressed with the foals but because he wasn’t old enough, he didn’t have the authority to buy horses for the ranch. So, he sent his cousin, Caesar Kleberg, who did have authority, to pick out a stallion prospect. Caesar bought Old Sorrel and his mama for $125. “When he was broken and tried for cattle work,” Bob wrote, “Old Sorrel proved to be the best cow horse we had ever had on King Ranch. He was exceptional as to beauty, disposition and conformation, smoothness of action and fine JOURNAL PLUS A P R I L 2 0 1 1

handling qualities. Having seen other stallions, even after they had proven their merits for breeding, carry on for only one generation, we determined, if possible, to perpetuate the wonderful qualities of this stallion.” Bob’s method for the perpetuation of Old Sorrel’s type was line breeding, in which only the most superior individuals were used. Naturally, the superior stallion was Old Sorrel, and Bob bred him to 50 of the ranch’s best-handling, bestriding Thoroughbred mares. He was looking for the following characteristics: intelligence to learn and to remember what is expected; alert, yet without nervousness; strong-muscled enough to carry good weights, yet be agile under saddle; speedy enough to outrun the fastest steer, yet compact enough to have an easy and ready maneuverability. The offspring of Old Sorrel and the Thoroughbred mares included Little Richard, Cardinal, Solis, Macanudo, Hired Hand, Babe Grande, Little Man, Tino and Melon. These stallions were selected as sires because of their likeness to Old Sorrel’s conformation. The King Ranch crew even “test drove” Old Sorrel’s offspring to weed out the horses that didn’t have the agility and cow sense needed. Then, fillies from the Old Sorrel-Thoroughbred cross were bred back to Old Sorrel. The results, according to Bob, “while encouraging, were not exceptional.” However, when Solis, Macanudo, Cardinal and Hired Hand were likewise bred to the daughters of those Thoroughbred mares, the results “were like magic,” Bob said. The King Ranch Quarter Horse breeding program was well established by the time AQHA was formed in 1940. Old Sorrel sired 116 registered American Quarter Horses before he died in 1945. But by the mid-1950s, every Quarter Horse produced on the King Ranch carried Old Sorrel’s blood. Old Sorrel was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in 1990.

Then There Was Wimpy one of old sorrel’s grandsons, actually a double grandson,

became one of the most famous horses in AQHA history. By Solis and out of Panda, a daughter of Old Sorrel, Wimpy won the 1941 Southwestern Livestock Exposition in Fort Worth,

Texas, and the honor of being named P-1 (“P” stood for permanent) in the AQHA Stud Book. “We wanted the best breeders to bring their horses to Fort Worth,” wrote AQHA’s first secretary, Bob Denhardt, in a 1964 Quarter Horse Journal article. “No. 1 in the stud book was one of the incentives we offered to get them to trail their horses all the way to Fort Worth for the new, small, untried and little-known organization.” Foaled in a King Ranch pasture in 1937, the chestnut colt had only a white star on his forehead and a left hind foot white to the fetlock. By the time he was 4, Wimpy’s name didn’t match his build. He stood 15 hands and weighed nearly 1,200 pounds. He didn’t exactly resemble the “bulldog” Quarter Horses of the day, but he wasn’t tall and lanky like his Thoroughbred relatives, either. He also possessed the levelheaded disposition Bob Kleberg desired in his horses. Wimpy sired 174 registered horses, including Showdown, Silver Wimpy – who sired Marion’s Girl – and Bill Cody, the foundation of the Joe Cody line of reiners.

More Progeny rey jay, a stallion by the king ranch’s rey del rancho,

had Old Sorrel five times in the first four generations of his pedigree. Two of Rey Jay’s grandsons were the famous cutting horses Colonel Freckles and Freckles Playboy. One of Macanudo’s sons was Pep Up, sire of matriarchs Peppy Belle – mother of Peppy San and Mr San Peppy – and Shady Dell, dam of five AQHA Champions, including Poco Dell. In the 1970s, when Tio went shopping for a new stallion for the ranch, he picked Mr San Peppy, a grandson of Macanudo. By the time Tio found Mr San Peppy, the 8-year-old sorrel stallion had already made a name for himself in the professional cutting arena. At first, the ranch test-bred some mares to Mr San Peppy. The next year, it leased his services with an option to buy him. Extremely pleased with the first two crops of colts, the ranch purchased the stallion in 1976. “Mr San Peppy had conformation, disposition and tremendous athletic ability,” Tio recalls. “We didn’t know he was

going to be a sire. But by the time his third foal crop arrived, we were starting to train some of his foals and realized he was a superior individual who would add to our genetics what we wanted in our horses.” Mr San Peppy had more than $107,000 in National Cutting Horse Association earnings and sired more than 1,300 registered foals. He died in 1998 and was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in March. Today, half of the ranch’s broodmares carry Mr San Peppy’s blood; the other half carry that of his son, Peppy San Badger, aka “Little Peppy.” He, too, made a name for himself in cutting and won more than $170,000 in NCHA competition, and was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in 2008 “Mr San Peppy and Little Peppy were two different horses,” Tio says. “Mr San Peppy was very rugged, a tough kind of horse. The faster and dirtier the calves were, the harder he worked. Little Peppy was more like a ballerina – very agile and light-footed.”

Celebrating a Legacy 2003, king ranch celebrated its 150th anniversary. Today, King Ranch has 825,000 acres in South Texas, the 5,000-acre Cannonade Ranch along the Guadalupe River in central Texas and 75,000 acres in Florida in citrus, sugarcane and sod. King Ranch continues to be on the forefront of innovation in farming. Today, King Ranch’s integrated farming operations apply the same dedication to pasture improvement of the ranch’s early days to the cultivation of crops as diverse as cotton, milo, sod, citrus fruit, sugar cane and vegetables. in

King Ranch (through its presence in Florida) is the largest juice orange producer in the United States. Additionally, the early and ongoing commitment to growing quality rangeland grasses has a modern counterpart in King Ranch’s highly productive sod operations in Florida and Texas. The ranch is also one of the nation’s largest cotton producers. And the ranch’s work with genetics and line breeding isn’t limited to its equine operation. In the early 1900s, Robert Kleberg Jr. and Dick Kleberg developed the Santa Gertrudis cattle breed, which is recognized worldwide as being able to function productively in hot, humid and unfavorable environments. More recently, the ranch developed a composite breed of cattle that, in addition to withstanding harsh South Texas and semi-tropical climatic conditions, better responds to the changing tastes of many contemporary beef consumers. What would Capt. King think of his empire today? In a time when old ranches are being broken up and sold so that the descendants of the ranches’ founders can have their inheritance in cash instead of land and cattle, Capt. King would be pretty proud that his kin have kept his dream alive and in business. He probably wouldn’t have imagined that the ranch would be employing sixth-generation Kineños today, Tio told America’s Horse in 2003. “It’s also an accomplishment that the ranch continues to be a private, family-owned business,” Tio adds. Today, there’s no question that King Ranch would bring more than a few cents per acre. But how do you put a price on a legacy? Becky Newell is editor-in-chief of AQHA Publications.

Back to Basics Working straight and lengthening strides

T

By AQHA Professional Horseman Lynn Palm with Christine Hamilton

to achieve balance and responsiveness in all transitions

and control of speed in any gait, working on a curve is a necessity. Through bending, you encourage more weight and balance onto the hind legs, and that supples and strengthens the horse. When a horse is balanced, you’ll hear it said he tracks “straight,” that his hind feet track where his front feet take off. The hips are in line with the shoulders, and the head and neck are in line with the shoulders and hips. When a horse maintains perfect balance on a curve, we call that “straight while bending.” You must first establish a horse’s balance and straightness

on a curve before you can establish it in a straight line. It’s not necessarily easier for a horse to track straight on a curve than on a straight line, but it is often easier for the rider to diagnose when the horse isn’t straight when riding on a curve. When a horse gets crooked on a curve, there are more obvious signs from the horse. Once your horse is balanced while moving in a straight line, then you can work on increasing or decreasing stride length. Lengthening the stride means the stride gets long and covers more ground. It’s not making the stride faster, with the legs moving quicker. The horse relaxes and stretches, extending the stride without speeding up the legs.

C HR ISTIN E HA M ILTO N

RIDER’S TIP: SEEING STRAIGHT You can identify “straightness” or “straight while bending” by watching a horse from the ground. When a horse is moving “straight,” the hind legs track right where the front legs take off, whether he’s moving on a curve or on a straight line. AQHA tells judges in western pleasure classes to watch for horses going straight down the rail on the long side of the arena. If the horses have their hips canted in, that’s not straight: The hind legs do not track where the front legs take off. The rules say the horse must be tracking straight.

It’s typically best to teach a horse to lengthen a stride on a straight line. When you want to slow a stride, you bring a horse to a curve. When you want to lengthen, it’s best to go in a straight line because then the horse has the freedom to go forward.

Common Problems whether your horse is tracking in a straight line or on

a curve, your goal is for the horse’s body position to stay straight. If the body is straight from the poll to the dock, you will get the quickest, smoothest results in your transitions as well as in how you regulate your speed at any gait. When the horse gets crooked – his head is to the left or right; there’s a bend in the body; or his hips swing in or out – the horse will have poor transitions and will lose rhythm in his speed or break gait. When crooked, the horse doesn’t have his weight distributed evenly on his legs so his body alignment is not correct. He’ll have a fast, hurried, choppy stride, and the transitions will be rough, abrupt or have resistance. If you ask a horse to lengthen his stride and he’s crooked, he’ll get on the forehand, the stride will get faster and the legs will move quicker. A lazy, laid-back horse will bring his poll up and invert his back or invert the topline. When that happens, he won’t go forward and won’t lengthen the stride at all. A more sensitive or delicate horse may pull outward or pull downward with his head. If he pulls outward, he’ll get too flat in the body and won’t step under with his hind legs. He’ll lose hind end engagement and roundness in the body. If he pulls downward and the poll gets below the topline, then he’ll put too much weight on the front legs.

What To Do Establish natural carriage the first balanced speed i want to create in a horse is his

natural speed. If you watch a horse at liberty or on a longe line, he travels at a comfortable speed because of his natural length of

stride and conformation. That’s the same pace and the rhythm of stride that I first want to create with him under saddle. That’s something that people often don’t think about. They get on their horses and are always creating a speed, like always wanting to go slow. Instead of having in your mind how fast you want the horse to go, start with making him really comfortable and balanced in his natural carriage, on curves and straight lines. Doing that has been good for me in building a foundation in my young horses. I give them the time to learn self-carriage according to their natural way of going. It’s also what I’d recommend to begin with if you were just establishing a relationship with a new-to-you older horse. Lengthen before shortening next, i always teach my horses to lengthen the stride in

every gait before I ever teach them to go slower than their natural length of stride. It’s easier for a horse to learn to lengthen than it is to go slow and collect, because of the way that they’re made. When you lengthen the stride, just as it is when you slow the stride, you have to develop the horse and allow him time to gain another balance. When the horse speeds up, he loses his comfort zone in what you just got really solid with him. When you go faster, he can change. The lazier horse picks the poll up, but he doesn’t want to go forward; he doesn’t understand what you’re doing; it’s difficult for him. The sensitive horse gets quick-thinking and hurried in his stride. JOURNAL PLUS A P R I L 2 0 1 1

You have to develop a confident attitude, a reaction to the horse’s understanding of how to lengthen the stride. When he genuinely lengthens the stride and has correct balance, then he’s doing it with relaxation and strength. If he’s tight and stiff and hurried, you’re only going to quicken the stride and the horse will be running in his gait. It’s easy to see at the trot. Instead of a quick “dt-dt-dt-dt,” you want a “tsch---tsch---tsch---tsch,” with a longer tempo. Teaching him to lengthen first also preserves or makes stronger the correct cadence of each gait: four-beat walk, twobeat trot and three-beat canter. Progress through the trot the trot is your best gait to really get results lengthening

strides because it’s a two-beat gait, and it’s easy to ride in good timing with your horse with your aids. You’ll feel more results with your trot first because you’ve got forward motion in your favor. I do the beginning stages with the walk, because I’m working slower, and I have an easier time with my aid sequence. My horse has more time to accept what I’m doing and learn it. Then I perfect it and gain a lengthened stride through the trot. Then I go back to the walk and get more lengthened stride with the walk. And then last, and it takes the longest, is working on the lengthened stride at the canter. Keep forward motion and contact with the reins when the horse lengthens, you’ve got to keep forward

motion: You drive forward with your seat and leg, encouraging him to step under behind, and you maintain a light contact with the rein to balance his head and shoulders, keeping him light on the forehand. Don’t let him nose out and get long. Keep his back up, enabling him to reach under with his hind legs. If my horse wants to get long and flat in his body, I keep encouraging with seat and leg, and close my fingers with a little upward tension on my reins to keep the forehand coming up. Keeping the forehand up is key to getting a longer suspension to the stride, the horse lengthening and holding the leg out longer from the shoulder. Even if I’m riding a loose-reined western horse and I want to extend the jog, a light contact with the reins is going to help balance and control the forehand from the wither to the poll. It’s also going to give me connection from my legs to my hands, which is the horse’s back legs to his mouth, and that light contact allows the horse to stay longer in his stride, with more suspension to the stride. If there’s no contact in front, he’s just going to shuffle and quicken his stride as I ask him to go forward. Keep the horse in mind with a laid-back or lazier horse, or a horse that doesn’t

want to go forward, you must work on lengthening any gait on a straight line, because the straight line encourages forward motion. Also, taking him outside of the arena is a must! When you take him outside the arena, the horse gets more curious and it intensifies his sensitivity. That should help that lazier, laidback horse to go forward. With the more delicate, sensitive horse, working on lengthening the stride is often better on a curve. It can be better with younger horses, too. As you work on lengthening strides, a more sensitive horse often will just speed up on a straight line. They get quick and fast-thinking and stop understanding what’s going on.

RIDER’S TIP: HAND GALLOPS One thing judges often ask for in hunt seat equitation is the hand gallop, and that’s in two-point position. Changing direction on the diagonal is a perfect exercise to prepare yourself and your horse. Start out in an established, balanced canter on the short side. As you come out of your turn onto the diagonal across the ring, gradually increase the length of stride. Start with your seat, then as you rise up into two-point position, close your leg and maintain contact with your reins. You can’t use your seat in two-point, but you could do a three-point position (a half-seat) where the seat lightly touches the saddle. Increase the length of stride with your leg aids and keep connection with the reins. Then the horse can lengthen and have a longer suspension in the stride. At the end of the diagonal line, come back to a trot. Make a 15-meter circle coming out of the diagonal at the other end of the arena if you’re going to come back to a posting trot. You could also practice doing a lengthened canter to a halt. Finish the halt right before you reach the corner for your new turn.

Changing direction on the diagonal to work on straight lines and lengthening a horse’s

stride, a figure that I love to do is “changing direction across the diagonal” of the ring. This figure begins as you track along the rail on the short side of the arena. Once you make your turn to the long side of the arena, instead of continuing along the rail, you track diagonally across the arena in a long straight line to the opposite corner, and then continue along the rail there into the curve of the short side at the other end of the arena. It changes your direction of travel along the rail. To work on lengthening strides at any gait, establish a balanced gait as you track along the short side of the arena and make the curve onto the diagonal. Then gradually lengthen the stride through the diagonal. As you approach the opposite corner, transition down again, either to the slower stride or down a gait. You can either continue with that slower gait into the curve of the short side of the arena, or go back to a medium length of stride. At the end of the diagonal, I often do a circle in that opposite corner. I ask my horse to slow down before it, but I also let the circle help me slow the horse down. I create a circle sized according to my horse’s level of training and ability, usually between 10 and 15 meters in diameter. Keep these things in mind as you perform this figure: • Make a gradual curve

People often want to cut the turn short. But to be really balanced, you want to make a large, wide curve to a gradual straight-line diagonal. • Create forward energy

As I start the figure through the curve on the short side of the ring, I create more forward energy with more weight in my saddle. If I’m at the walk, then it’s more of a forward and back motion with my hips. I support with more contact with my

legs: my leg position is just 2 to 3 inches further back than normal, but I avoid gripping. I keep contact with my reins. • Watch the inside rein

When going from the curve to a straight line, the most common riders’ fault is to pull too much on the reins, especially the inside rein. It causes the horse’s head to stay flexed inward, to the inside of the diagonal track. It causes the horse to track crooked. The horse’s shoulder and hips will go to the outside; or, the shoulder can drop inward and the hips can swing outward. It’s a perfect setup for the horse to go faster in his stride rather than lengthening the stride. • Do just one circle

It should be your goal to do just one circle at the end of the diagonal. If you don’t attain a slower gait through that one circle, then change gaits and slow down. If I’m working at the trot, I’ll go right to the walk. I won’t keep doing two and three and four circles to try to get a slower speed. I do one circle, come to a stop, look back at my tracks and assess what happened. Maybe I didn’t get my horse straight coming out of the turn onto the diagonal, and he tracked crooked. Or maybe he pulled down in the reins and got on the forehand so the stride got quicker, and that’s why he didn’t slow down more. Maybe I was late with my cues and didn’t give him enough time to gradually slow down. Or as I slowed down, I let go with my reins, and he got too long and flat on the forehand, carrying too much weight on the front legs. Those are the kinds of things you’ve got to think about so that when you do this exercise again you can be early to improve your horse’s response the next time.

BIO

LYNN SALVATORI PALM, long associated with AQHA Superhorse Rugged Lark, has more than 30 AQHA world championships and reserve world championships and four Superhorse wins in her list of accomplishments. She is also a well-respected AQHA judge. With her husband, Riding Master Cyril Pittion-Rossillon, Palm owns and operates Palm Partnership Training out of Fox Grove Farm in Ocala, Florida, and Royal Palm Ranch in Bessemer, Michigan. They offer several classes for beginning to advanced riders from both locations (www.lynnpalm.com).

Changing Direction On the Diagonal I use changing direction on the diagonal in my training program in several different ways: • For the horse that has trouble going straight on the long side of the ring, it can be difficult to make the change in body position from going “straight while bending” on the short side of the ring, to “straight” along the rail on the long side of the ring. Going from the curve to the diagonal straight line is a more gradual change and easier than going from the curve to the straight line down the long side of the ring. • To introduce going straight at the trot or lope with my young horses, through the diagonal of the ring. • Simply to work on my horse’s balance while going straight in all three gaits.

• To lengthen strides at any level. It can help you lengthen a trot in training a green horse; extend the trot or jog for hunter under saddle or western pleasure; or improve a hand gallop in hunt seat equitation. In the above diagram: Horse No. 1 is tracking straight while bending into the curve. Horse No. 2 is tracking straight on the diagonal. Horse No. 3 is not tracking straight. The rider applied too much inside rein making the turn from the corner onto the diagonal. It caused the horse’s head to stay flexed inward, his shoulders dropping inward and his hips swinging outward. It can cause the horse to go faster in his stride rather than lengthening his stride.

BET There are few things that make a photographer happier

P

than great light, good horses and a nice outdoor arena.

photographers love to take pretty pictures of awesome

horses, but we’re usually stuck trying to capture light in dusty, badly lit indoor arenas or horribly back-lit covered arenas. I know: The purpose is to create great riding conditions, not great photographic conditions. Still. But the sunny Sun Circuit on February 1 in Scottsdale, Arizona, was almost perfect. Working for the Journal, I need to capture images from all the classes, so I made the rounds from western riding to trail. Late in the afternoon, I joined Brian Baldridge of Jeff Kirkbride Photography at the in-gate to shoot some reining. Jeff Kirkbride Photography is the official show photographer; the Journal has permission to shoot at any official AQHA show. The sun was tipping to the west, and the light was pretty. The only big downside was the cold, blustery, westerly wind that bit into our jackets. The wind was doing a good job of blowing riders’ hats off in the run-in and sending them rolling down the arena to the waiting gate crew standing behind an arena banner as a wind break. Brian and I took photos and compared the digital results. Brian is after exhibitor images for Jeff to sell; me, stock images and show coverage for the magazine. It’s fun to trade

By Christine Hamilton tips and compare cameras. Before long, Brian made the comment that if a magazine prints a run picture from a reining go, he, as a photographer, immediately suspects that the event photographer didn’t get the almighty, ever-elusive Slide. And then he challenged me to a duel: Catch the classic slide in one shot, no rapid-fire shutter, best out of 10, for a $5 cup of coffee. You’re on – I’m a coffee-holic. We battled the wind and the dust flying into our faces. We could hear the camera shutters, so we knew the other had kept to the one-shot rule. After every slide, we compared and mutually judged the best amount of dirt and front legs nearest to midstep – one knee curled, other leg stepping forward. It’s easier with a big-stopping horse. Of course, Brian makes a living shooting the reining (and all AQHA classes) and does it all day long; he also competes in reining. I kept with him for several slides, but then he took two in a row for the win when I snapped early. Dang it. Christine Hamilton is an editor for The American Quarter Horse Journal.

SUPER SUN CIRCUIT By Christine Hamilton The 38th Arizona Quarter Horse Association Sun Circuit was one for the record books. Mark Harrell Horse Shows reported 13,982 shown in the AQHA classes alone from January 29 to February 6 at WestWorld in Scottsdale, Arizona (numbers unofficial). The four split/combined shows (making eight AQHA shows) ranged from roughly 2,900 to 4,100 shown, making the combined total for the 2011 circuit well above the 13,900 mark. The National Snaffle Bit and National Reining Horse association classes, as well as various jackpot classes were equally as strong. That is a marked increase from the 11,682 total shown in 2010 and 11,841 in 2009, all reported by Mark Harrell Horse Shows. The key was making the show exhibitor-friendly in the schedule, in prizes and in new competition formats, according to AQHA Professional Horseman Doug Huls, 2011 Sun Circuit show director. “We added activities, like the Levels classes in pleasure and hunt seat classes, the Cinch Timed-Event Challenge Roping and National Reining Horse Association classes,” Doug said. “We looked at each area of the horse show and enhanced it a little. New for 2011, the show crowned an All-Around Cowboy in the cattle events – won by AQHA Professional Horseman Brad Barkemeyer of Scottsdale – and a Super-Select High-Point winner – M.A. “Tommy” Thomas of College Station, Texas. The new Downthe-Fence Challenge in the cow horse was won by Michael Berg of Temecula, California. “We had so much to give away,” Doug continued, “from the boots in the halter and the cash; there was $2,000 given away in each of the Levels classes, and all the random lucky-exhibitor prizes. Great sponsorships allowed us to give away a ton of stuff. “We also set it up so you could rent permanent stalls for half the show, so that cut down the expenses, especially for the ropers.” Even though the weather was much colder than normal for Scottsdale, the sun stayed out. Doug commented: “The roping (entries) didn’t go up that much

(from 2010), but there were several more planning to come but got snowed in because of the weather.” The most-heard compliment by far was for the show’s schedule. “We got done by 6 p.m. just about every day,” Doug said. “The youth pen went late one night, until about 10 p.m.; it was the only pen out of the five going that wasn’t done by 6 p.m. “(At WestWorld), we’re blessed with a lot of arenas that we can show in, and we were willing to let the western riding and trail work at will. It allowed exhibitors to get where they’ve got to go. It’s amazing for a show to have that many numbers – like 120 in senior trail – and be done showing by 6:30 p.m.” Find the Circuit Award Winners at www.suncircuit.com.

LET’S MAKE A DEAL

Which would you pick? The wad of cash in the game show host’s hand? The item in Trailer No. 1? Or whatever’s in the Farnam Mystery Box? The midshow exhibitor’s party at Sun Circuit featured a steak dinner and rounds of the game show “Let’s Make a Deal,” horse show-style, with thousands of dollars in cash and prizes at stake. The evening was sponsored by exhibitors Ken and Laina Banks of Schulenberg, Texas. Game-show host (and AQHA Professional Horseman) Tom Foran of Ojai, California, walked the audience, offering chances to make a deal. The audience was hooked when the first mystery box revealed an iPad, and the suspense built when it took a while to catch the prize in Trailer No. 2 – a ferret. Prizes included the “Laina Banks Money Bank,” a toilet seat and plunger, a 55-inch flat-screen HDTV, a pair of chickens, a luxury vacation getaway and a bag of charcoal for living-quarters trailer grilling. The best prize was an evening of family friendly fun, and a perfect break from the show.

Cold weather and power outages delayed competition in San Angelo, Texas, during the first part of the NRCHA Celebration of Champions week and the Circle Y Derby, but the competition went on. On February 1, Boonie Tunes, owned by Danny Poole of Texline, Texas, won the NRCHA Circle Y Ranch Derby with Boyd Rice aboard. Boonie Tunes, a 2006 red roan stallion by Peptoboonsmal and out of Shiney Tari by Shining Spark, came from behind to win in the final event, the cow work. “He was good in the cutting,” Boyd said. “We cut some soft cattle, but he worked well. He was the best he has ever been in the rein work, and we were a 147.5. The cow didn’t run as hard as she could, but my horse was just perfect and gave it everything he had.” The Circle Y Derby was the stallion’s third cow horse event. Boyd has shown Boonie Tunes to $46,791 in National Cutting Horse Association earnings. Tuckers Smart Cat placed second in the open but was first in the intermediate open with Lyn Anderson of Madera, California, riding for owners Barbara and David Archer of Clovis, California.  CD Ben and John Swales were the winners in the limited open for owner Mary Reti of Elnora, Alberta.  Moon Me Pepto and Doug Williamson won the novice open for owner Barbara Hastings of Glendale, California. On January 31, in the Derby non-pro division, Tammy Jo Hays of Tishomingo, Oklahoma, rode Moonstruck Nic to a 431.5 total. Moonstruck Nic, a 2007 bay gelding, is by Nic It In The Bud and out of Moonstruck Cat by High Brow Cat. “I was just thrilled with him,” said Tammy Jo, who owns the horse with her father, Walter Greeman. “He stopped big and did everything he was supposed to.”

a Point

after a long day with four grueling western events,

half a point separated the top three exhibitors February 6 in the World’s Greatest Horseman competition in San Angelo, Texas. Russell Dilday of Porterville, California, won a record-breaking third title on Topsails Rien Maker, the horse he owns with Kevin Cantrelle of Raymond, California. Topsails Rien Maker is 1999 sorrel stallion by Topsail Cody and out of Jameen Gay by Toby Gay Bar. Just half a point back, Ron Emmons of Ione, California, and AQHA Professional Horseman Todd Crawford of Blanchard, Oklahoma, were tied for second on Olena Oak and 2010 AQHA Farnam Superhorse Play Dual Rey, respectively. Olena Oak is a 2002 sorrel stallion by Smart Chic Olena and out of Fritzs Oak E Doakie by Doc’s Oak. Play Dual Rey is a 2003 sorrel stallion by Dual Rey and out of Hiccup N Play by Doc’s Hickory. The first event in the World’s Greatest, part of the National Reined Cow Horse Association Celebration of Champions, was the herd work, an event similar to cutting except that reining the horse is allowed during the cut. “This morning, I knew I had to step my cutting up because in the prelims it was too low a score,” Russell said. “I thought he was as good in the cutting as I’ve ever felt. Of course, Todd has a great run, marks

a 220, and he’s three points up (above our 217).” Ron and Olena Oak were right behind Todd and “Raymond” with a 219. Next up was the reining, where Ron was making an adjustment. “He was a 205 in the prelims, and he was really good down the fence and in the roping to get me back in, so I rode him a little different in the reining,” Ron said. “I didn’t push him as hard, just cruised along, made a good run and let the chips fall where they may.” Todd and Raymond marked a 221 in the rein work, with Russell and “Slider” right behind at 218. Ron and Olena Oak were snug behind in fourth place with a 216. “I’m first (draw) in the (steer stopping), so there’s no sense playing that safe,” Russell said of his game plan. “Everybody here ropes really good now, especially when you have people like (AQHA Professional Horseman) J.D. Yates showing up – holy cow!” After the steer stopping, Todd was in first place by two points. Ron and Russell were tied behind him. The final placing would depend on the cow work. All three horsemen knew that going fullout was their only option to win.

“I got lucky and drew fourth, and Todd and Ronnie were both ahead of me, so I knew what they marked,” Russell said. “Of course, Todd’s really good again, then Ronnie ties him up and then I have to bump them. No safety – I just tried to go. My first turn, that cow was a little tricky. I wished I had got by a little sooner and maybe (the score) wouldn’t have been so close, but he just smoked the second turn and then the circles – who can run that hard and get those cattle like that?” Russell knew he’d given everything he and the horse had, and he looked up at the scoreboard to see the results. “(I was) hoping beyond hope that (the score would) be a 19 and

tie at least,” Russell said. “I don’t even know what I thought.” Meanwhile, Todd and Ron had gathered at the end gate to watch Russell’s run. “We knew Russell could be huge down the fence,” Ron said. “He’s proved it time and time again. We were just waiting to see what happened, and that’s what happened.” The score was 219.5 – good for the win and the check for $30,000, a boost to 12-year-old Slider’s earnings. “This put him over $300,000,” Russell said. “He should be

the first one to break that threshold, and I really wanted to do that. For him and for the (sport of) cow horse, too, to see that horses can make money at this age. Unlike so many other horses that win a lot of money, he won next to nothing when he was young and I was young at the Snaffle Bit. To be able to go and win $300,000 after your 3-year-old year is really – it’s an accomplishment for him and our whole association, our whole industry.” Russell praised his competitors. “There’s not a bad horse in that herd,” he said, waving his hand at his fellow finalists. “There’s nothing in this herd of horses but some bad luck. That’s the only way they sort out the winner here. We just had less of it.” AQHA Professional Horseman Casey Hinton, one of the Play Dual Rey partners who own Raymond and filled the stands to cheer him on, shared that sentiment. “I think it was one of the best finals I’ve seen to come down where three horses were a half point from winning,” he said. “I thought it was a phenomenal class. It’s always good to come to the show when you’ve got one capable of winning – to get that close, you’ve got to be happy with your performance and the effort of your horse. Todd did a great job.”

AQHA Professional Horseman Todd Crawford of Blanchard, Oklahoma, and Play Dual Rey had the highest scores in the finals of the World’s Greatest Horseman competition in the reined work and the herd work.

AQHA Professional Horseman J.D. Yates of Pueblo, Colorado, won a berth to the World’s Greatest Horseman competition through the 2010 Battle in the Saddle. With Bald N Shiney, J.D. had the highest scores in two of the preliminary contests, putting the two of them into the finals, where they placed seventh overall for “Hank’s” owner, Nelle Murphy of Burneyville, Oklahoma.

A Year of Firsts It was history in Houston for the 2011 Pfizer Versatility World. By Christine Hamilton and Larri Jo Starkey

O

once the first competitor stepped off its trailer at the

Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, the excitement didn’t stop until the final two placings were announced for the open world championship at the Pfizer AQHA Versatility Ranch Horse World Championship Show on March 9-11. There were a lot of firsts for this year’s show. For the first time, the amateur world championship was won in a clean sweep: Holly Major of Fowler, Colorado, and Chica Shine took all five classes in the versatility ranch horse competition – ranch trail, ranch riding, ranch cutting, working ranch horse and ranch horse conformation. In their first appearance at the Pfizer Versatility World, Mozaun McKibben of Whitesboro, Texas, and Lil Ruf Catalyst won the open in a down-to-the-last-class tie-breaker. The first international competitors made an appearance at this event. Riding American-owned horses that they leased, these three amateurs from Germany competed at the Pfizer Versatility World: Rolf Siegle, Josef Goeggel and Andre Weber. For the first time, show competition was broadcast via live-stream video on the Internet along with The American Quarter Horse Journal interviews of the world champions.

And the show moved to Houston in March. Though some exhibitors lamented the long haul, the weather was warmer and the Houston hospitality was second-to-none – the volunteermanned show fed exhibitors three hot meals a day during the competition. But one thing stayed the same – horses with heart and riders with courage giving their all for a shot at a world championship in one of the industry’s most demanding disciplines.

Clean Sweep in a history-making clean sweep, holly major of fowler,

Colorado, and her stallion, Chica Shine, took the amateur world championship, winning all five of the versatility ranch horse classes. “It’s amazing, it feels absolutely incredible,” Holly told The American Quarter Horse Journal after the win. She showed the stallion, a 2004 son of A Chic In Time and out of the Shining Spark mare Shining Smart, to fourth in the 2010 Pfizer Versatility World.

really level-headed in the whole show and really showed her horse tremendous.” Mike took the open reserve world championship with their homebred mare, Black Hope Stik, by Smart Whiskey Doc, the stallion Mike won the open world championship with at this show in 2009 and 2010. It was a happy drive home for the Majors and their two young daughters, Shanae, 8, and Kiana, 3. “I think we’re both excited,” Holly said, the win still sinking in. “It’s been a cool show.”

and Lil Ruf Catalyst were crowned the open world champions at the 2011 Pfizer Versatility World. Mozaun owns the 2006 stallion by Lil Ruf Peppy and out of Foxy Catalyst by Taris Catalyst with fiancé Hilary Zimmerman. They saw something in the black horse when he was a yearling. As a 3-year-old, Lil Ruf Catalyst began competing in working cow horse events, and it was his skill in that event that made him a champion. The overall open world championship was tied at the end of the ranch horse conformation – AQHA Professional Horseman Mike Major and Black Hope Stik won the class and Mozaun finished fourth. In versatility ranch horse competition, the tie-breaker class is the working ranch horse and Mozaun and Lil Ruf Catalyst won that with Mike taking fourth. “It’s a little nerve-wracking,” Mozaun told the Journal after the win. “You’ve got a lot of different events to do with the same horse, and it started out a little rough for me. We started putting it together, and it turned out all right. He’s just a real nice horse. He’d probably be better if he had a better jockey.” Mike and Black Hope Stik ended up with the reserve; the two also won the inaugural Battle in the Saddle ranch remuda contest in 2010 and, in October 2010, won the first Project Cowboy competition. Third place went to Josephs Catchum All, shown by J I M J EN N I N GS

Adams, Oregon, took third with Chickalena Superstar; the pair finished sixth at the 2010 show. “We got (Chica Shine) as a 4-year-old out of Texas,” Holly said of the sorrel stallion. “I’ve been showing him a few years … just coming along with him as a snaffle-bitter and now a bridle horse.” He is also a money-earner in the National Reined Cow Horse Association. “The more time we spend together, the better we get,” she continued. “But I’d have to say it’s all God. It just finally happened and came together.” At the end of day on March 9, Holly and Chica Shine had won three classes – ranch trail, ranch riding and ranch cutting – but she wasn’t taking anything for granted. “It’s all tough. There’s not anything (easy) for us,” Holly said. “It’s kind of been a struggle for us all the way through … everything is so difficult. We just work on all of it. You think you get one piece done and something else falls apart. You never know.” She continued: “Three years ago, I had a really big lead (with Love A Little Devil) and then I came back and kind of bombed in the next two classes and wound up being third. So, I was so worried we were going to have a repeat!” Her husband, AQHA Professional Horseman Mike Major, encouraged her to just keep going like she had been, for the final two classes. “It’s the same advice she’s always given me,” Mike said. “She’s always kept me more focused on the show and what to do because she’s got a really good eye on what to do.

This is the biggest thing that’s ever happened to me in the horse business.” Mozaun also ended up 11th on SLJ Smart Like Hen and says he was only able to show two horses because Hilary kept them warmed up for him between events. After thanking the city of Houston for its hospitality, Mozaun talked about the importance of the event to him as a rancher and a breeder. “Right now, the horse industry is focused on one event for one horse, and this is one of the only places you can come and have this many events on the same horses. It’s tough to do and

it’s not done much,” he said. “I want a horse that I can take out of the pasture and go do something. If I take my rope down and rope something, I can do that, or if I have to cut a cow – whatever I want to do, I can do. “I think the halter (portion) is important, too. If you breed and raise horses – everyone likes to ride a pretty horse, but sometimes our prettiest ones aren’t our best ones. If you throw the halter in the competition, it really stirs up the pot.” Besides competing in versatility ranch horse events, Mozaun competes in roping and cowboy mounted shooting. He said that he and Lil Ruf Catalyst will be back next year, and he has some young horses that will be in the mix next year. Pretty ones, he added with a smile, for the halter part of the competition.

Competition Camaraderie “it’s consistent speed, consistent direction and length of stride, and you’ll get all of these obstacles,” summed up AQHA Professional Horseman Nancy Cahill. That’s the secret to beating the challenge of a ranch horse trail class. It was March 8, and the riders in front of her were headed to Houston for the 2011 Pfizer Versatility World, and stopped at Nancy’s for some pre-show trail tune-up. It was a unique group – two longtime ranching horsemen, Jimbo Humphreys of Dickens, Texas, and Bozo Rogers of Watrous, New Mexico – and three amateur riders from CH RISTINE HAMI LTON

OPEN VERSATILITY RANCH HORSE WORLD CHAMPION

Germany, the first international competitors to compete at the Pfizer Versatility World – Josef Goeggel, Andre Weber and Rolf Siegle. Their presence at Nancy’s sums up a lot about the versatility ranch horse competition in general: For one thing, competitors are serious about their horsemanship. Seasoned horsemen, all, they were eager for the additional insight a multiple world champion all-around trainer could give them on trail. For another, they’re determined to help one another with that horsemanship. The Germans arrived March 2. Qualified in Germany, they arranged to ride leased horses from American versatility ranch horse competitors. Rolf rode Chic Packin, the 2010 open J I M J EN N I N GS

Josef was originally to ride Laurie Shelton’s Ima Little Tequilla, but a lameness prevented the horse from showing, and Josef ended up on BJ Smart Jewel, owned by Justin and Toni Kay Tolle of Jacksboro, Texas. Once in the States, the German trio headed straight to Texas cattle country with Bozo and Jimbo. They stayed a few days at Jimbo’s place to “fight with Texas cattle” as Andre said with a laugh, in the wind and dust. They also needed to get to know their horses. “We did the working cow and cattle training,” Andre explained. “We are not used to such tough cattle in Germany because they are more broke. (The American cattle) are very fast, very sensitive cattle, and we are not used to that. Ours are a little bit slower … they are used to people.” In Europe, competitors can rope cattle but are not allowed to dally – so all of the men worked on their roping, too, with help from Bozo and Jimbo. They stayed in a bunkhouse at Jimbo’s, cooking steaks and getting a taste of the real American cowboy life. The men have all traveled in the United States and are fluent English speakers – understanding even Texas-accent-laced instructions.

On March 7, before the competition started March 9, the group hauled down to Nancy’s in Madisonville, Texas, to get some trail coaching. “I said, ‘I don’t know a whole lot about this trail stuff,’” Bozo said, wanting to give the Germans even more chances to get familiar with their horses, “So I called Nancy. And we needed a place to stay before we headed to Houston.”

Bright and early March 8, the men saddled up to slow down for trail. They practiced first on seasoned trail horses, to get the feel of the obstacles when the stride is right, and then moved to the horses they’d be competing on. “The hard part for us, you know, we go over logs and around all kinds of stuff (on the ranch), but it’s not in a set position, and it’s not such a tight control deal,” Bozo said. “And our horses have a longer stride.” Part of the challenge for the Germans was to ride with a looser rein, Bozo explained, and allow the horse “to look like a ranch horse but still have the control you have to have to get over (obstacles) like this.” It’s part of the beauty of the versatility ranch horse event, he added: “Going from the extreme of going fast in the reining or for the cow, and then to slow down for the trail. “It’s been a community effort to get this deal done,” Bozo said with a smile. But that’s just the way things are done in the American Quarter Horse ranching community, competition included.

Timed-Event Championship Kyle Lockett picks up his second ‘Iron Man’ victory. By Larri Jo Starkey Photos by Larri Jo Starkey

K

kyle lockett of visalia, california, carried a 51.7-second

lead into the last performance and from there into a second title at the Wrangler Timed-Event Championship on March 6 at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma. Kyle’s first victory was in 2005. The Timed-Event Championship is sometimes called the “Iron Man” event because 20 cowboys must compete five times in each of five timed events during two and a half days: steer wrestling, steer roping, tie-down roping, heading and heeling. “I tell you what, it made it a lot easier into this fifth round to have a bit of a lead just so I didn’t have to worry about it as much,” he says. “I’ve still got to go catch the cattle, but if I’m late in the heading or heeling, it’s not as big a deal. I’ve just got to go stop the clock.”

Competitors line up in their ranking order from 20 to 1.

Kyle’s composite time of 308.8 seconds for 25 runs translates to about 12.3 seconds per run – good enough for the $50,000 check for the winner of the event. Reserve champion went to Trevor Brazile of Decatur, Texas, who picked up a check for $25,000. ProRodeo Hall of Famer Paul Tierney of Oral, South Dakota, added another title to his long string of awards: the 2011 Clem McSpadden Pioneer Spirit Award, which he received March 5 during the fourth performance of the Timed-Event Championship. Paul, the oldest competitor at age 58, has been riding in the five-event challenge for all of its 27 years.

AQHA Shows Most AQHA shows offer a variety of classes (English, Halter, Western) and divisions (youth, amateur, open) for competitors of different skill levels. Some shows may offer novice classes for the youth and amateur divisions and some offer the special Select classes for amateur exhibitors who are 50 years of age and older. Below are additional show formats which various show managements offer to meet exhibitors’ needs. Double Judged/Double Point (**DJ/DP*) Want to earn points fast? Then a double judged/double point show might just be the ticket for you. This format features one show with two judges, meaning that your top placings could earn two sets of points without having to exhibit twice. Double judged/double point shows are primarily found at major livestock shows where there are a large number of exhibitors. The majority of exhibitors who attend these shows are highly competitive, so expect top-quality exhibitors and American Quarter Horses. Expect to pay two entry fees. Split/Combined (**S/C**) Another efficient way for exhibitors to rack up more points is to attend a split/combined show. Any two consecutive shows (like a Saturday and Sunday show) can be combined into one show and split over two days. There are two judges and two sets of points and the class is held only once - a real bonus for exhibitors who are trying to qualify for the World Shows or earn year-end awards. Expect to pay two entry fees. Special Events (**SpEv**) Want to meet more people who show in the same event as you? A special event just might be the ticket. Special events – as the name implies – may feature two single events like team penning and cutting, barrel racing and pole bending or roping events like team roping and calf roping. The serious and the casual competitors attend these special events. A single set of points is awarded at each special event. Livestock Shows & Fairs Some of the largest AQHA shows are held during livestock shows and fairs. These collective events, which feature shows for other livestock, offer all levels of competition including youth classes. The number of entries may be high, and you can find seasoned and casual exhibitors. All-Novice Shows (**All Nov**) Have some fun showing while getting your feet wet at all-novice shows. These events are specially designed for exhibitors who have not yet earned 40 novice points or 10 performance points, which means that you’ll compete with people of similar skill levels. All-novice shows are hosted by AQHA

state and provincial affiliates, and are usually held as stand-alone events or can be held during an open (non-AQHA approved) show. Alliance Shows (**AL EV**) You can earn AQHA points by competing at shows hosted by AQHA Alliance members - National Cutting Horse Association, National Reining Horse Association, National Reined Cow Horse Association and National Snaffle Bit Association. Approved events award points based on the AQHA system to those exhibitors who like to show in both organizations. You can expect all levels of competitors. AQHA rules are applicable, and exhibitors must meet AQHA ownership and eligibility requirements. Versatility Ranch Horse Competition The Versatility Ranch Horse competition demonstrates the versatility of the working ranch horse in five categories – ranch riding, ranch trail, ranch cutting, working ranch horse and ranch conformation. To be eligible for points in the Versatility Ranch competition one rider/one horse must enter all five classes. Credits will be applied per class according to the placing received based on the number of horses competing in that particular class. AQHA points are awarded based on the total earned credits from each class that determine the final placing. There is an open division for horses shown by the recorded owner or by immediate family members or shown by a full-time employee (six months or more). A Youth division also is offered to exhibitors 18 or younger (age as of January 1) as long as they are the recorded owner or exhibit a horse owned by their immediate family members. Youth exhibitors may show horses owned by a ranch where the exhibitor’s family is a full-time employee (for six months or more). The Versatility Ranch Horse competition promotes the athletic ability and versatility of the horse. AQHA Equestrians with Disabilities The Equestrians with Disabilities is for those who wish to compete regardless of their physical or mental abilities. The competition consists of three classes:­walk and trot hunt seat equitation on the flat, walk and jog western horsemanship, and walk and jog trail. The classes can be held at AQHAapproved shows or can be stand-alone competitions. An Equestrian Proficiency Card from the North American Riding for the Handicapped Association (NARHA) and/ or a special adaptive equipment and riding ability form can help exhibitors when entering these events since the card provides show managers information about their abilities.

Explanation of Codes

In addition to the above codes, the following codes will also be used: al – all day fee; of – office charge; ha – halter; pe – performance; **Sp Ev** – special event; **DJ/DP** – double judged/double pointed show, **S/C** – split/ combined (combined/split) show. Three different dollar amounts are listed after specific classes, such as roping and team penning. The first amount is the cattle charge; the second is the entry fee; and the third is the payback. Ex: $30-$60-$45. All fees listed for team penning are per team. For speed events, the first amount is the entry fee and the second is the payback. Ex: $30-$20. The term “DL-” with a date following, signifies the entry deadline for that particular class. Entry deadlines may differ for separate classes within one show. The following is a list of shows for the next two months, arranged in alphabetical order by state. The date is the date the show is to be held this year. The city is the site of the show, and the numbers on the right indicate the number of entries in open, amateur and youth for last year. If the show is a new one, it is listed as such. Special Events will always be listed as “new”.
