Lots Going On

We got our invitation to the Sharon Camarillo Classic to be held in Sterling, Ill October 1 0 3rd.
This is an invitation only event for horses and riders who have graduated from a Sharon Clinic, which we did a few years ago. I don't remember when I have had more fun and worked so hard as I did that weekend but it was fun and she is a wonderful teacher. She does not teach Barrel Racing she teaches horsemanship and everyone could learn from Sharon no matter what you ride, if you can put your ideas about barrel racing aside and pay attention to what is going on in the ring.

Anyway, that is certainly a change to show folks just what Standardbreds can do. I'm no sure if we will go this year or not.
Then there is the NBHA World championships also in Oct in GA, we could go there also and I know we would be the ONLY Standardbred there also.

I think I am going back and do some running with him this summer to qualify him for the FIFTH time for the Worlds and get him another wild card and a state championship.

I LOVE the timer as it doesn't lie and pay off judges and all the other wonderful stuff that happens in the show ring. Besides, when we are running we are way far outside the box of what duncan was bred to do and it certainly is a lot more fun that the show or dressage ring.

So, I have to talk to the big guy and see what he wants to do and we will go from there.

We are a Plat inium sponsor at the National Standardbred Show, but, I'm not sure if we will go or not time will tell.
