It’s been a long while since I’ve update on OTRR, but to be quite honest barrel racing hasn’t been on the agenda a whole lot this winter! I sold BLY Valiance Hooker last fall and I look for her to have a successful career with her new owner. Here is the reality and truth of it, when your first barrel horse is such a great horse, a winner, a pleaser….it’s hard to jump on the next one and be happy with it. Hooker is a very nice mare, but she just wasn’t the horse for me. So I decided to move on…I vowed that I would take my time finding my next horse and get EXACTLY what fits me. It didn’t take long for the right horse to fall into my lap. A good friend of mine’s daughter was starting her career and had a 4 year old gelding that she had to part with. So “Atticus” made the long trek from Texas to Indiana. He is an own son of Bully Bullion out of a Jet of Honor daughter. So far, Atticus is proving that he is exactly what I want to send down the alleyway. Although I don’t think rodeos will be in our immediate future, I plan to haul him to jackpots this year and get him nice and solid. Then we will see what the future holds for him! I am VERY excited to start the year off fresh with a new horse and see what is in store for us!
you go girl!! I love you!!
