 My Heart Be Happy

Location: Arkansas | So what did y'all think about the first round, overall? |
|

|
| Horrible footing as usual. Some super nice first nfr horse. |

| Typical NFR round 1 fashion, the ground sucked. I’m surprised the times were that fast given the slipping. Hopefully it gets fixed tonight. I was really worried for Slick, Duke and Paige. My heart hurt for Lisa. Rosa worked awesome though. |

Seems like ground was worse at the start. Hope Slick is okay. He looked off after that. So frustrating for the ground to be like that. |

Location: Arizona | Not surprised with Hailey and Sister, she had top of ground. Tonight I think she has bottom ground so we will she how she clocks. Sad to see Lisa hit, Rosa had an awesome run and so did Kylie Weast, wow her run was nice!! I sure hope they do something with the ground. |

Location: Middle TN | The first NFR run for Tracy Nowlin on a $1,800 mare Dolly Jo got her a check - so dreams do come true. Kelly Bruners first NFR run was a nightmare I think I have had. Lets she what Hailey and Sister do from the bottom tonight - then we will see - I'm thinking they are gonna be hard to beat - bad ground or not. I'm just couch coaching so not gonna bash anyone... I like seeing lots of new faces and a returned favorite.
Oh and whoop whoop - Slick is back. Anyone know why Micheal hasn't been riding him? I hope she is ok. |

| Yeah the ground wasn't great, not surprising. I was worried about Slick and Duke. Duke handled it well but Slick was struggling and looked off.
I will say, Tracy Nowlin is the girl I am cheering for and she can ride!! I was happy for her last night. I thought Rosa rocked it, I am always a Lisa fan. That barrel made my heart sad. I am glad she was on Rosa and not Louie until they get that ground fixed. |

The ground got better towards the end. If the ground isn’t fixed, I don’t think being bottom will be an issue for Hailey. |

Location: Missouri | I didn't realize one of the gals (Jessica Routier) has 5 children. Man. What an inspiration. If she can get to the NFR as a momma of 5 then surely I can manage to actually have a consistent season next year and get back into the top of the 3d as a mom of 2!  |

| The ground is always the hot topic....usually because it sucks and it did!
Slick had a rotten first because of ground and said NOPE at 2nd. Don't blame him!
Felt bad for the girl who's horse ran up the fence. Haven't followed some of them, so I don't know if that has ever occured before, but has to be heartwrenching and depressing on that stage.
Also heartbroken for Lisa. Saw Rosa this summer at our rodeo in the absolute slop and you'd have never known it. She ran a low 17 anyways. There were only a couple of 17s ran all week. Was happy for Tracy Nowlin and her $1800 self made super horse. Unicorns are out there! |

Location: MN | Hailey's Sister and Slick both slipped in the same exact spot. That was scary. It's going to be a tough NFR this year but Sister looks really solid, as always. Rosa looked great! I hope they can keep up barrels going forward if she doesnt break out Louie.
The horse that ran up the fence, apparently he's a hit or miss. If he wraps his first, its wicked fast. He wasnt feeling it but holy was he flying.
Really hoping the ground holds up tonight!

Location: The Lone Star State | Felt bad for Kelly Bruner, she is a hand and has an arsenal of horses. Suzy got her there but will be interesting to see if she stays with him or pulls out pinkie! SHe will get it figured out. Shes a DVM so if he is hurting she will fix it! |

Ya...too much money on the line to be a miss!! He looked SUPER strong...she definitely has her hands full with that one!
Was it last year that Tibby ducked the 3rd in the first round or the year before? I think she had done that a time or 2 before as well. It happens to the best of them!

I was curious why Stevi Hillman is riding Slick this year? Can anyone fill me in? Thanks. |
