SpaceCowboy - 2015-12-07 3:37 PM Agree with others in that the NFR is not everyone's dream. I would imagine some of the ladies you mentioned, have figured out they can make more money in the futurity world, so maybe they are not even trying to get there like they used to.

Come and run at a little jackpot in Oklahoma or Texas and you'll run against a bunch of girls capable of going to the NFR if they wanted to haul...

I can attest to this...we had a jackpot the other weekend with a NFR pattern and the fastest time was a 13.69 followed by a 13.71 (both horses owned by the same person)...

An NFR pattern is not the same as running at the Thomas and Mac. I doubt many of the horses who run at these NFR patterns on perfectly manicured ground could run the same time at the NFR.

Don't get me wrong, there are phenomenal horses that never rodeo, sometimes the jackpot horses suck at rodeos as they are not gritty enough, can't stand up to the hauling, the variety of ground conditions, and the atmosphere.

I definitely agree! I think it would be a different game if both cases were switched - put the nfr horses into a perfect ground situation, and put the jackpot horses into the trashy ground at the T&M and we would have far different outcomes!
