Lets hear from 3X NFR Qualifier Jolee Lautaret
Jolee of all the rodeos you attend a year, is there one you look forward to the most?
I would have to say Salinas for a number of reasons. First, the committee there is so good to the contestants; it makes it nice to go. Second, you make three go rounds and possible a fourth with the short go so you get to hang out there in one place and it’s almost like a vacation. The last few years, my fiancé Allan Jordan was judging the rodeo, so it meant time to spend with him, which is in short supply during the summer when we are both on the road quite a lot. The weather is great and the conditions are good for the barrel racers – you don’t have to worry that you’ll make the long drive and the ground will be bad or things like that.
I always love going to Pendleton, though we don’t go every year due to the distance from home. That is just one of the most fun barrel races you can compete in. Who wouldn’t love getting to just run that much?
Williams, Arizona was a favorite of mine, but it is no longer a pro rodeo. But they were also wonderful to the contestants and really took care of the ground.
Jolee I noticed you are going to sell 2 Embryos from Belle, tell us about Belle, and your relationship with her, and how you came to this decision?
Belle is an awesome mare and I just love her. She can be challenging but I think that makes the wins more special. She definitely has her own opinion on things and makes me work. She is out of the great sire Sticks an Stones and a half thoroughbred mare so she can really run. She is AAA rated on the track and has her AQHA Register of Merit for Racing. Her speed has won me lots of barrel races. She is so athletic and doesn’t always make the prettiest turns, but she can turn as quick as anyone. I have run sixteen second patterns on standard sets and won in little buildings like at the NFR. She is very versatile that way. And, especially when she was younger, she could stand up on anything, which is exactly what you need to rodeo. She very rarely slipped and only fell once, at Ellensburg. She has a ton of heart and is a very gutsy mare.
I didn’t get her until she was eight. She had been on the track until the age of five and then sold to be used for calf roping. I have often thought how much I would have loved to get her as a young horse and be able to put my own foundation into her. Unfortunately, when you buy an older horse, there is a certain amount of old habits and things they were taught prior to you with which you are dealing. She has so many great traits to her, that I have always wanted to raise some babies and see how those abilities pass to the next generation and to have the chance to start them in our program, and therefore, not be dealing with anyone else’s issues. In hindsight, I wish I had pulled an embryo or two back when she was still running full time because the babies would be old enough to be competing now, but it just wasn’t on my radar at the time. I am hoping we can put a few out there now and I can get one too. Because of her age, I know we are limited in the number of babies we might be able to get now. I would love to see several Belle babies competing and winning in the future.
Jolee since you have qualified for 3 NFR’s is there one run that sticks out to you?
There actually are several runs that I remember. I was lucky enough to win two go rounds in my three trips there, so both of those runs are special to me. The first, round 7 in 2002, I won on my Mom’s horse Twinkie. Belle wasn’t right that year so I got on him in the fourth go. It was tough to get off my main horse and then, in the sixth round, Twinkie propped me going into the second barrel and I nearly fell off. I was so embarrassed! Then, we came back and won the round the next night. That was cool.
I won the second go in 2003 on Belle. I was so excited so win one on her. She was doing so well that year, and to win one on my number one horse was fun. She ran a 13.7 that night, which was just a few one hundredths off the arena record at that time. To do that that early in the rodeo was unusual and very cool.
The last run I made at the Finals, tenth go in 2004, is another I will remember and cherish. That year, Belle was off her game a bit and not clocking good in the rounds. We had made nine clean runs that year so I knew if I could get through that tenth go, I was going to win a good average check. When she took off in the lane, I hung up my belt buckle to the saddle horn! I was stuck over the front end all the way into and around the first barrel and I was just sure I was going to screw up nine go’s worth of work. Luckily, I came loose between first and second and finished the run cleanly. For anyone to make it clean ten runs in a row in that set up is quite an accomplishment. I took a lot of pride in it, because Belle was always tough to get through clean indoors; her big stride into the turns often put me by enough to drag the barrels leaving the turn. At any rate, that run was an adventure, and the accomplishment of a big goal for me.

Saddle bronc rider Jesse Kruse takes 4th round
LAS VEGAS—Jesse Kruse won the fourth round of saddle bronc riding at the National Finals Rodeo on Sunday night to increase his lead in the world standings, scoring 90 points on Hell’s Half Acre.
Kruse, from Great Falls, Mont., leads the world standings with $148,576, followed by Heith DeMoss of Heflin, La., at $113,928. Kruse’s 90 was the best score in the first four rounds in the 10-round finale.
“It feels great to win a round after all the trouble I had in the first three rounds,” Kruse said. “It sure makes my injury feel a lot better. I’m just a little dinged up; my left foot. … I could have ended up breaking it again.”
In tie-down roping, six-time world champion Cody Ohl of Hico, Texas, won with a 6.6-second run, just a tenth of a second off of his event record.
“I was to the point where I was roping really good the first three rounds, but I hadn’t won anything,” Ohl said. “But my confidence was still high. I just didn’t have any luck on the ground. Everything just happened perfect tonight.”
Trevor Brazile of Decatur, Texas, who had an 11.9-second run to fail to place in the top six, leads the standings with $137,339, followed by Clint Robinson of Spanish Fork, Utah, at $129,697.
In bull riding, Bobby Welsh of Gillette, Wyo., won with an 89.5 on Silent Image, while B.J. Schumacher of Hillsboro, Wis., was second with an 89 on Smilin Bill. (read more)
National Finals Rodeo: Horse helps Saddle Bronc Rider, Cody Wright win round..
The saddle bronc rider from Milford, Utah, did it early and often at last year’s Wrangler National Finals Rodeo on the way to his first world championship.
This year, it took him until Round 3 for his first big paycheck $17,139 riding Surprise Party of Sankey Pro Rodeo for 86.5 points to win the round.
After not placing in the first round and finishing sixth in Round 2, Wright was ready to move up.
“You’re anxious to hopefully draw a horse that you can make a good ride on. You kind of beat yourself up because you figure everything here, you ought to be able to win on. Sometimes that’s the case and sometimes it’s not. It feels really good to have won a round.”
Wright said he was happy when he saw the horse he had drawn.
“That’s just a great horse,” he said. “She’s in every short round all year long. She’s usually in the TV pen. She’s always good.” (read more)

D.V. Fennell earns his first paycheck at National Finals Rodeo
LAS VEGAS – His motor’s running now.
D.V. Fennell knew he’d have to overcome the nerves and commotion that comes with a first-time Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualification. Even though he’d never played on the biggest stage in the sport, he’s been around long enough to know its affect on the players.
“We’re just getting started,” Fennell said Friday.
Born in Utah, Fennell is an Oklahoma-raised cowboy now living in Neosho, Mo.
“I was more me today,” he said. “Yesterday, they ran in one of those nice horses under me. You make your first NFR, and you’re ready to nod your head on a man-eater, and she sat down and twitched her ears at me. Looking back I made a good ride yesterday, but it just didn’t fit right.” (read more)
