| I was looking at the Draw for the Greg Olsen in AZ. One gal is entered on 13 head of horses in the open!! And I think same person has 6 or 8 head just in the futurity. SOme of them could be the same horses but 13??? I would never survive! LOL |

| Unless they all run exactly the same....
I can ride. I can ride one horse well, two maybe, if they have similar styles. But 11!!!! You GO girl! |

| Wow, I run 3 and am beat when I get home. That is talent to be able to mentally adjust to each horse. Are they all hers? |

| I just watched one of Jolene Montgomery videos and she talked about how she had 17 horses in training. Major clappy hands to those who can set their mind to do it and get it done. I bet they are just as fit as any athlete around. 
I'm a wimp, I would die LOL. 3-4 is enough for me.
If she is entered on that many in the open, I'm guessing the futurity horses are carry overs. Maybe Derby horses too if she is entered in those.

| That's when you have a tag on each one with notes about their style and things to remember about them, or notes on their previous run so you can remember how it needs to be rode! Impressive |

Sherry Cervi usually will show up with 6 at Buckeye. I have to admire her. She does well it seems she handles all well. Jolene with 13 is just staggering! I'm sure she has good help. |

| At some point I would love to talk to her. I wonder if she has a couple helpers that can ride and train with her. And as mentioned above, keeping them all fed properly, vet care, teeth, and I can't imagine her farrier. Lol |
