| Lisa is a class act both in and out of the arena, Louie is a hunk, love how his ears are black on the inside :).
Falllon is still going for it, she sucked up that first barrel last night. She does not seem to be safetying up too much to keep her average spot.
Christy Loflin sure is having a hard time staying in the saddle, wonder what that is about, does not seem to be the norm for them.
Glas to see Kaley and Sherry pull another check.

Location: Riding Crackhead. | Great minds think alike Rodeomom. I had the same thoughts on all points. Louie looks like a beefcake running down the alley. Last night the announcers commented he looked like a bulldogging horse. Its going to be a fight to the finish between Lisa and Fallon. Its getting exciting! |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | I love watching Louie's ears. You can tell the split second before he breaks to run because they go from forward to pinned and then BLAST OFF. Lisa does such a good job riding him too. Quiet, balanced in the middle, and guides him just enough to give him confidence and support. She is right up there with Charmayne and Sherry for me. |

I was thinking about that too! He's got to know what that song means. Lisa is such a class act. |

 If it Ain't a Paint it Ain't!
Posts: 8519
Location: Mansfield, Tx | She makes me nervous thou ... every 1st barrel she has a habit of lifting up her leg... I don't know if I should say habit or if Louie just gets that close to it and she knows it and that is her way of knowing she how to save the barrel...freaks me out everytime... but she DANG sure knows her horse and how to ride him..
where to put him and where her hands need to be... Love watching them run.
I think Fallon's 1st barrel wasn't as safe last night as it was in earlier rounds but her 2nd barrel is still "safe" to me.. b/c BabyFlo will inhale that 2nd barrel ... she doesn't need that wide of a pocket coming out.. but then again it may not be that wide .. it could be the camera angle... alot of things play a part in what and how we see things on tv... and of course it's always different when you are on the back of a horse...
As far as Christy goes... I love her... But I don't know what is going on... nerves maybe... I was thinking the same thing as mentioned above.. did she change saddles? |

Location: Texas!! | Did anyone notice that Kassidy's horse would wring it's tail at the barrels last night? It still turned really good, but I don't remember it doing that in the earlier rounds.... I hope everything is ok, after the slip it had the other night!!

| How is Louie bred anyway? I need to start paying attention to lines more so I'm prepared when my checkbook is ready to shop. I love his entire attitude and smooth style, I'd love to know if that was typical of his bloodlines.
There's so many there this year that would have some stellar runs if they could catch a break and keep the cans up, a couple really nice times just cuising home after they tipped...
I really want to see Lisa win this! She's a class act. Role models are made after the lights and cameras and microphones are shut off. |

He did it BAD in round 7. He looked ****ed, but then I thought maybe she had tuned on him, or gotten him feeling better last night because he was better. Or maybe he was expressing his displeasure at the ground conditions. I dunno. |

| Anyone feel like movin is getting heavier on the front end. I think maybe that's why christy's getting thrown forward so bad. I didn't notice it as bad the first rounds but you can really see it now. |

Location: 'Hawk Country | I think Lisa deserves to win it this year. She lost Louie after Houston until the CFR. Not that Chism didn't win a lot, but she didn't have Louie for 1/2 the year. |

Location: Northeast SD | Lisa and Louie all the way!! They definitely deserve it after the luck he had all year.. BabyFlo inhales that first!! I'm waiting for Fallon to cue her a half stride too soon and get it because that mare drops to turn as soon as Fallon lets her! I'm sure nerves are getting to Christy.. Heck if that happened to anyone that would be the only thing you'd think of running flat out to that first barrel.. HOLD ON! |

| I was wondering about Kassidy Dennison's horse, Eagle last night too. The 3rd barrel camera angle was head on when he came to it but it looked like something was wrong in his rear end. Hope he is ok. He is an awesome athlete. His turning style is so flowing and smooth. Reminds me of Lindsay Sears and Martha.
But I too am a LOUIE FAN FOR LIFE!!!!

Location: MS | I love Lisa and Louie. She is right there with Sherry & Stingray for me. I hope this is her year.
I don't think Movin likes this ground. Last year she was throwing Christy forward in the saddle some too and I don't notice her doing that in videos I've seen of her in other arenas. I think it's worse this year because of the dirt.
I noticed Kassidy's horse start ringing his tail in round 6 or 7 as well. I hope it's not a pain issue. |

He looked off to me too. Then he had that big stumble before the 3rd. Had me worried. Eagle wasn't firing or turning as hard last night it seemed
I LOVE me some Louie!! And Lisa is a class act. |

I agree but he's slipped a little under the radar. |

just a thought I think Fallon changing to a treeless was a game changer. Might change everything for Christy. Movin is a small powerhouse who looks nearly impossible to ride. I
i feel Christys struggle having also come froma jumper background. Im not really a treeless fan but it may work |
