| Love how Lockhart only went to 39 rodeos and some are at 97. Tells you that the horses she rides are a whole nother caliber!!! And her horses won't be dog tired and sore when the NFR gets there. |

| Some of the gals get invited to the high dollar rodeos that others don't get invited to. Right? Or do I misunderstand it. I was under the impression that some of the girls HAVE to haul to twice as many or more rodeos as to get their foot in the door because they're going to lots of smaller money rodeos/shows....doesn't always come down to caliber of rider/horse. I don't rodeo myself and could be misunderstanding what I've heard others say, though.

The $100,000 in Calgary helped with that a lot! |

She's got the best horse in my opinion in the whole industry right now. She can pull that off with him because he's so solid and consistent. He goes out and makes the same fast run every time. Even on his off days he still puts down a solid pattern. A lot of the other horses in the top 15 don't have that going for them. In my opinion that's a better horse than one who can run hard, but knocks half the runs. One of those top 15 was at a local rodeo a couple weekends ago and didn't have any clean runs on any of the horses. I can see why it takes close to a hundred rodeos for some to qualify. At least some use several backups and don't use up their best ones. |

TOTALLY AGREE! The invitational rodeos should not count. Someone didn't have their thinking cap on when that rule went down. It's a very unfair advantage given to an elite few. Really, really wrong.

Fallon taylor only ran Flo about 48 times before she sent her home and started seasoning colts. I'm sure she wasn't the only one that used her main horse in the beginning then let back ups or colts pick up the slack after that. |

You do know that only $50k of that counted... right? |

Location: Golden Gulf Coast of Texas | Looks like there are only two under 40 rodeos and they both got at least one big check. There is no doubt that winning one of the big invitational rodeos almost assures you of a ticket to the NFR. I just don't think it's fair to count any rodeos unless everyone has a chance to compete there. I wonder if this is the most ever qualified with over $100k in earnings? Can't wait to watch this year!

I'm also excited for her. I had never heard of her until a week or so ago... but I hope she rocks the nfr. I always end up cheering for the ones that have a good story behind them. Wouldn't that be something if she went and did awesome. I would probably cry thinking about Rachels parents. |

I think the best part of the story is that rachel trained blaze from the ground up. Most girls who do well in high school are riding horses they bought already winning.. That horse really is a part of Rachel and I can only imagine how proud her parents will be to see him run down the alley way at the T&M.. |
