WTRHA - San Angelo Results: Congratulations to Pam Schroeck - Her good horse by Dunit, 'Dusty Dun Tivio', was 3rd in the Open and tied 1st in the Intermediate Open! Unofficially, Dusty will be the Year-end winner in both of these divisions!'I'm Not Talkin' Trash', Pam's good little Rookie partner these past years, got a 'retirement' party - with carrot cake and lots of attention! He goes out in style, giving Pam two good runs, great pix, a win in Primetime Rookie, and splitting 3rd place in Limited Non Pro!
'Talk About Flash' and Shelly Liggett had a good weekend - placing 4th in the Limited Non Pro, and 2nd in the Novice Horse Non Pro - and a check -'Carlie' now has a start on an NRHA record!
'Glory's Last Squall' had a good run in the Novice Open with Bruce, placing 2nd! Congrats to the Peloquins, his owners - they have been busy dodging the last two hurricanes, and are looking forward to the end of 'hurricane season'!!
'Sprezzatura', or 'Ice' as he's known, and Kary Key were on their game thi
s past weekend as well! They were 2nd in the Non Pro, and tied to win the Intermediate Non Pro and Limited Non Pro! Unofficially, it looks like Kary and 'Ice' will be the WTRHA Year End Champions in all three divisions!Kary also showed her good filly, 'Star', sired by Who Whizit, in the Limited
NP Futurity on Saturday - this was her first time to show, and everyone was very proud of them both - Kary showed one handed thru the whole run, and upped the level of difficulty there - and 'Star' was a good girl, only giving the judges and scribes a brief look, but got thru the run nicely, and looking every bit like a she will be a consistent show mare for Kary next year in the aged events and beyond!Eileen Crane had a nice run on 'Hang It To Em' in the Rookie, and was 2nd in the Primetime Rookie - look for 'Louie' and Eileen at the NRHA Futurity, showing in the Rookie of the Year competition!
One more show left for 2008, before the Futurity - SWRHA is coming up in October - Ardmore, OK! Good luck to all that plan to show in Ardmore!!

REGIONAL FINALS RESULTS - TULSA, OK: A big congratulations to Eileen Crane! Eileen showed her good gelding, Hang It To Em, in the Affiliate Rookie Finals, and did just that - 'hung it to em' for the win in both the Rookie Affiliate Finals and the Prime Time!
Eileen had a very emotional ride - as 'Louie' started and finished almost every maneuver in the plus column, she knew this was their best performance together so far! After completing her run, Eileen got to hear those words we all would like to hear when we know we've put a good run together....'THE SCORE......220!! We wish Eileen and 'Louie' good luck this December, as they will be traveling to OKC for their final run of the season - Rookie of the Year! (photo credit: Primo Morales)
We would also like to congratulate Pam Schroeck and 'Im Not Talkin Trash' - her good partner in the Rookie division - Pam and 'Taddy' ended up 6th in the Prime Time Rookie Affiliate - good job!
Bruce showed Pam's good stallion, 'Dusty Dun Tivio', to an 11th place finish in the Intermediate Finals - adding another check to his earnings. Pam is looking forward to having Dusty step in for Taddy next year as her Rookie/NP partner - Bruce will probably get to show him a few more times, tho!
And, last, but certainly not least, we need to give Kary Key a big 'honorable mention' here - Kary and her good boy, 'Sprezzatura', better known as 'Ice', would be getting a big congrats here for 2nd place in the Ltd NP Affiliate class, if not for that 'extra' turn-around at the end of the run! Kary and Ice are nothing if not exciting to watch, always giving it their best efforts - we have learned to expect nothing less!!
Congratulations to everyone that attended the show - we are very proud of you all!! We will post pix when we get them!
