It’s hard to see somebody else Riding Riley’s great horse Lucy but super proud of Riley letting my niece and her Cousin ride her while she is looking for a new horse. Riley and Lucy have won so much, set arena records , and built as a team. Lucy is like Sea Biscuit small bit has the heart. This little mare loves to run and compete. Lucy is a little older and Riley has out grown her But it’s nice to see her making another little girl dreams come true. We can still run her if needed and she is going to give Riley everything but she can’t take the day today rigors!!

Riley had a pretty good weekend at the Region 10 Jr High rodeos. 3rd and 4th on the bottom of the ground both days. Her and Gator are really starting to click. This afternoon she said “ Dad my confidence right now is above my head!!” She is off to San Antonio to run tomorrow in the Open Barrel Race. She will be running against the best in the world. She tipped one over 2yrs ago to win it . Hope they get back there without the tipped barrel

Abbey and Buddy made some really good practice runs today. Got a couple of weeks before the final 2 CTYRA rodeos in Hamilton.
Abbey rode Cowboy today as well and they ran some very good barrel patterns as well. She actually clocked the fastest time of the day on Cowboy. It has her really thinking hard of running Cowboy in the barrels and running Buddy in the poles

I’m the Roughstock Director for Region 10 Jr High. A young man got disqualified in the Steer/Jr Bullriding. And parents got upset This same Judge has thrown the Flag on me at both the Highschool, College, and PRCA level and he has flagged Riley out as well. He is a multiple time NFR Judge . I asked him once why he was so hard on me and he said “ because you rode to good to make those mistakes”. That being said this is how I responded to the parents and it’s what I preach to Riley

A little over a year a go Riley and Gator had their accident. Both got hurt, Riley a fractured arm, messed up shoulder, a concussion, pulled muscles in neck. Gator a horizontal tear in his suspensesary tendon. She got released 2nd week of May. Gator mid August. It’s taken both of them to regain confidence and trust in each other. Last 4 days 4 runs and they got faster each run. Last 2 day’s she competed in San Antonio’s Open/Youth Barrel Race and she Did well and placed both days and finished 18th today in the open against some of the best barrel racers in Texas and the country. In the open youth today she finished 3rd today and 7th out of the top Youth barrel racers in the State and Country. There were a couple hundred entered in each. Not sure where in the average she will fall but she is in good shape. Both of them are starting to believe again. Riley told my Confidence right now is so high!! I love hearing that and have been waiting and praying to hear those words. Belief in yourself, in this game is more than half the battle!!! Super proudLast edited by BrandonA; 02-11-2020, 08:42 PM.
