Location: Red Raiderland | Someone posted the draw last week and yep it is going to be a blood bath there. Gulp! It will be incredible to watch, though.
Unfortunately with all these big names it will surely drop everyone down a "D" from our usual runs on Sat since they can CO from the American.  |

Hmmm .... they just posted the draw yesterday am...
but any way... you are correct... it's going to be incredible to watch...
since i didn't enter I didn't read any of the rules... so, I didn't know if it was part of the D on Sat.

| Yeah, they posted the draw this week, but the list of entries was posted last week and wow!  It will be interesting to see how all of these great talented youngsters do against those names that have been around for decades! Glad to see so many of them CO to the open 5D Saturday. That will make a heck of a payout. All I can say about faster times is maybe it will keep me from falling in the cracks!  |

Location: Texas | Yep. It's the final countdown thats for sure. I ran both of my mares last Saturday and I didn't have the run on Bunny I was hoping for to send us off to the qualifier. Lucy felt great but I did something stupid at the third barrel so my riding will have to be absolutely spot on with her to clock. I'm hoping Bunny and I got our "out of sync" run out of the way so we will be spot on for Glen Rose. NO PRESSURE GUYS. |

| We are going to webcast the event for FREE - no pay for view - VisWorks will be the official videographer and PixelWorx the official photographer. I will put a link up on the BBR website www.betterbarrelraces.com that will take you directly to the webcast.
As for the draw - I posted the final draw last night, and we posted a list of entries last week, but that list didn't include a draw number. For clarification, all entries into The American, must also enter the open, and they have the choice to either carry their time from The American to the open, or to make an additional run. Given that Win$More just had a race at Glen Rose 3 weeks ago, we recieved many entries from people who were planning on entering The American. In fact the winners of both or Saturday and our Sunday show are both entered in The American. I will say one thing though - It's gonna be some GOOD WATCHIN!!
Good luck to all who have entered and have a safe trip, and we will see you in Glen Rose.

Since the expo keeps the stalls and RV's locked, contestants must come to the show office so we can get them unlock - all of that will begin when the office opens at 1 on Friday - |

| Due to a technical issue, two different times have been advertised on when the office will open - because of this, we will be opening the BBR OK/TX regional finals office at Noon and we will sell exhibitions from 1 to 2 - @ 1pm, we will open up the remaining exhibitions for sale and there will be a limit of 2 exhibitions per horse entered. |

As per PixelWorx Instagram account it's a 14.786 / Lisa Nicholas. Picture was posted 54 minutes ago! I'm not on FB, so that's my best bet for updates. |
