An honourable invitation was gladly accepted, for Barrel Racing to be included on the AQHA Breed Show Schedule for the first time ever in th UK. It was great to represent the Barrel Racers in the UK along with 10 other riders who entered.
Soverign Quarter Horses were the host of this years event and the barrel racing was slotted in around 5pm each night.
A great couple of days racing and a strong showing of supporters made the event a success.
There were a few prizes and awards along the way including cash prizes for each evenings Hi Point winners, rosettes for placings down to 6th in each class and a AQHA embroidered rug for the winner of the entry with the most points riding an American Quarter Horse.
​
The prize money was split between Ryleigh, Sally, Greg & Michelle on Friday night and was split between Ryleigh and Greg on the Saturday Night.
​
The overall Hi Point winner on a Quarter Horse was Sally Riding Joe ammassing 17 points over 2 nights.
​
2 great nights of competitions which were ran to full international standard, made great practice for our riders heading to the US soon and a fabulous experience overall.
