I was once the little girl on the powerful gray horse running against the adults. The hatred was insane. I'd love nothing more than to see this little girl take it all! Go all the way Chayni!
I admire the heck out of her but I also admire her parents for getting her that nice horse and to the barrel races. Kudos to them. |

That horse has been in the family for quite some time. Grandma and Mom have both won a pile on him. Glad to see Chayni being paired with such good partners to teach her proper, winning ways! |

Very cool how 3 generations have won on him, what a special horse. Yes Wrap, Chayni has been taught well, she is one heck of a hand. I will be on the edge of my seat when she runs hoping she smokes a fast one. I have always loved watching the kids who can ride lay down a run. |

Location: Ft Worth TX | I have hesitated on posting this but here it goes. I am so tired of all the negativity surrounding KIDS that made it to the American or to the Semi Finals. Kids are the FUTURE of the barrel racing industry- they qualified fair and square just like everyone else did. Who cares that they weigh less, wore a magic seat, had the night with "good ground" at semi's... Let me ask you- for those that feel the need to be low enough to knock these kids- Could you run their horse and do what they did? That 9yo girl that won semi's can FLAT RIDE, and RIDE that horse VERY WELL! She would have qualified if ground was like it was the first night, all the nights- either way she would still be headed to the American. For those that feel the need to be ugly towards the 15yo that wore the magic seat- SHAME ON YOU. She tried as hard as anyone to make it- there are NO RULES against using a magic seat so why not use it? I find it DISGUSTING adults feel the need to Bully the FUTURE of this industry making it somewhere they COULDN'T fathom ever doing from their couch! All these adults are is JEALOUS and need to get over themselves!
Chayni, Allie, Max, McKenzie they all did GREAT and regardless of what thos of you behind the keyboards think they worked their butts off to!!! |

We all watch the news thinking how disgusting cyber bullying is and how dare some kids be so mean to other kids but yet look at how the adults freely bash kids. The rude comments towards those kids IS cyber bullying and it is disgusting. Think it, talk to your friends about it, but do not post it on a PUBLIC forum for those kids to read. I think people forget how many people come on this site and read these comments. |

I can tell you i am so disgusted by all the adults bashing these kids on FB and on here- I don't see why we cannot be happy for them! If these kids are this awesome now think about how exciting the future of barrel racing is going to be! and Allie rode hard to and TBH she still popped out of the saddle even with the magic seat so its not like she was strapped down and flopping she was RIDDING that horse HARD and doing it WELL. |

Her riding reminds me of a person who has rode a lot in the mountains or on some hills.
In that manner a horse and the rider become so in tune with each other. |

Wow, have not seen the bashing on FB and glad of it. I saw Chayni run at the Glen Rose qualifier, she tied for 4th out of over 200 entries of the toughest horses around- all run on the same dirt on the same night. I was a drag behind her in the open the next day and congratulated her and her dad- nice, nice family. |

All I've seen on FB is a whole bunch of people really excited to watch a tiny cowgirl on a big grey horse go smoke a pattern on Sunday. Apprently I've missed the drama...LOL! We see her all the time at jackpots on different horses, and she works her tail off. Her mom is always right behind her tuning on her riding. It's fun to watch. |

| That Facebook post was horrible! Likes seriously the best ADULTS in our business picking on a couple kids who probably will never have the horse power nor the money to go somewhere big and then person after person kissing up the the chouest's and destri commenting on it and dogging these teenage girls. Not to mention blacklisting them from a show they'll never have enough money to go to anyway. I thought it was very IRONIC all in the name of "anti-bullying", did they not realize they were just bullying back by doing all that?!?!?! |

I never understand adult women acting the way they do when there is a kid winning!?! No different than when the Steinhoff girls were winning a lot, then Mesa Leavitt, etc. It is tacky and shameful. No wonder kids are so mean these days because apparently their mothers are too! JMO

I really want to point out I never meant it to sound like I was dogging this girl. She is a good lil rider and very determined to win but I strongly disagree with the soliciting of money, the way have acted after they wrecked the rig they borrowed, and the fact that they are running the horse again at the Patriot after this wreck. The lil girl is not the issue. The way the parents and step parents have acted is a HUGE issue and its not right that they are asking for charity or that they are asking the horse to run again. BTW the aunt or grandmother set up that go fund me account and the aunt has been in trouble for embelezing money before...just an FYI! Please don't delete this people need to see it as much as they need to see the "Lydia Cup" thread.

| I had a long thing typed out and it went poof and disappeared so I will keep this short. I live by the rule to treat others as I would like to be treated.
I am old now and don't really put up with other people's bull schit so I am going to unfriend any "friends" that are full of it.
Also, when I first posted this I certainly was not trying to take away from anyone. Everyone ran on the same ground. Everyone who qualified had to work hard and beat a lot of riders to get there. I am sure that when the gate opens it will be a tough set of competitors. Wish all of you good luck and can't wait to see who comes out on top. |

She was 14?? They made a big deal about her only riding horses for 2 years. She was strapped on and just along for the ride, horse was way too fast for her to keep up with. I don't know who in their right mind would strap their kid on a horse going 9-0 when they obviously don't have the ability or experience to stay on and ride it.
Flame away... Just not something I would let my kid do. Learn to ride first. The gal you were referring to also had a brother that ran in the slack, he also was strapped in. They were trained by a well known trainer that I have no respect for and needs to teach these kids a little horsemanship before putting them on these high powered horses. Everyone can flame me too.

Location: Buffalo, TX | There will always be haters and bullies....
1..They don't want the kids to run because of the weight...then how do you account for the ladies who weigh under 100 lbs?....handicap them?...LOL
2..They don't want the guys to run because of their strength....but nothing is said about most of them weighing 150 or more....
The truth is...haters and bullies want to win by eliminating the competition one way or another....ignore them....congratulations to whoever comes out on top Sunday....it'll be the team who handles the pattern, atmosphere, the ground, and their nerves the best that day....
