| That mare is amazing and she's only 4! What do these girls do to already have their 4yos running with nfr horses. (Training methods etc) I know breeding and just raw talent have a lot to do with it but it has a lot to do with their methods and I'm just curious. |

Agreed. Seems like she could win on a jackass. I don't see her slowing down anytime soon, but when she does I sure hope she'll put on clinics let us all learn from her. |

Yeah, she sure can jockey a horse! (And apparently train too). Gal's got talent. |

She sure is a hand on a horse - it doesn't hurt to help bring out the talent in a good one  |

Who rides her babies while she's on the road? She is a heck of a jockey, for sure! |

   Location: South TEXAS | also this mare was on the road with her last fall so that helped the traveling portion im sure. IMO, you cant be scared to let them do it. you can always back them down some, but you have to ask and see what they have and what they are willing to give you. I think she does that well. |

No one. She trains on them hard when she's a home and then they get a break when she's gone. She has someone put them on the walker/eurociser for her so they're ready to go back to work. We were talking about how she always seems to have them ready by Lances futurity in February, but she tried to go to Arizona this year and she said her colts weren't ready for that; it was too soon. I wish I had a tenth of her horsemanship abilities. |

I read that too, that she gives them time off while she's gone so that they can grow up a little and she said they're usually ready to come back and work even better than before. |

I know Sabra did ride some. I don't know if she still does or not. Does she rough break them herself, or have someone break them. I know she bred this one, but I just wonder, does she have a large breding program, or mostly buy prospects?

        Location: The Oklahoma plains. | I find it interesting that she can win on one Latricia trained and Latricia can win on one Brittney trained.
I am honestly thinking Brittney may be one of the best there is in the sport right now- as far as train and jockey at rodeos and futurities- she is a bad a$$ |

| Shes far braver than I would be!! I dont think id bust out a four year old at Calgary thats a tuff tuff rodeo. Id be to scared of scaring a young horse off rodeos.
I mean no disrecept by that, shes doing a great job and I dont hold a candle to her but thats alot to ask of a four year old, it will be exciting to watch her career for sure! I bet she will run nice at Tomas and mac! That mares one of them freaks you can only dream to own! |

I'm not sure she has any fear and that is a big reason why she's so good. LOL Crap, she brought out a 5 year old at the NFR, not a huge step from that to running your kick-ass futurity horse at Calgary.  |

| Dash Ta Fame sums it up pretty well. Those horses are so trainable and have the heart that it takes to be a barrel horse. Combine that with a good trainer and you get a winning combination. That is why Dash Ta Fame is a leading barrel horse sire and why these horses are the FIRST choice for futurity horses. |
