Location: Montana | BS Hauler - 2015-02-25 1:50 PM Why should female horses have to run against male horses. That not fair either. Its no wonder why there are no male barrel racers on female horses because they just can control that female mind.

Mighty Broke - 2015-02-25 1:41 PM SaraJean - 2015-02-25 2:39 PM Mighty Broke - 2015-02-25 12:34 PM SaraJean - 2015-02-25 2:30 PM I want to know when everything in life got about being fair. Next qualifications could be that you only have to compete against horses in the same price range as yours so those of use with $5000 horses don't have to run against $50,000 horses. And then maybe those that can afford trainers should have a class seporate from those who train their own.....NOTHING in life is fair so I don't get why so many make such a big deal about wanting a fair chance against their competition. Nobody is forcing anyone else to compete, so if you don't like the playing field & rules....stay home. SaraJean---this is exactly my point. This was meant as a joke. LOL
When I ran the paint in my avatar at the Reunion at Joseys, I am sure that I was riding about the cheapest horse there. It was also his first barrel race ever. Picked him up from the trainer on Wed. Ran on Fri. He went on to become Res. World Champion in poles. I am sure that there were some horses that were in the six figure range--mine was in the three figure range.. My suggestion is that if you don't want to run with the big boys, don't.

Location: Where I am happiest | Well while we are at it, you also should eliminate all Dash Ta Fames, Firewater Flits, Frenchmans Guys, ( Goes for grand get on these also) Designer Reds, and A Streak Of Flings. or maybe we should also add no horse allowed who's sire stands for more then $1000. That should about do it.  |

| I think we would solve everything by having all entered get a check at the end of the day. Everyone pay a fee, run the race, pay as many places are people entered. The winner would probably get like 2% of the pot and last place 4 d with all 3 barrels down would get about 7cents. LOLOLOLOL |

I came back to add. There are more "cow" horse sires getting in the incentives now. There are a couple die hard cow horse people who are now barrel racing, and I just saw A Streak Of Fling colt advertised for sale out of a direct daughter of Highbrow Cat who herself had won $65,000 NCHA moneys.There is no other reason they would breed a mare like that, that way except a bigger market. Our sales yearlings are now bringing more then the reined cow horse yearlings and weanlings are moving way better then theirs. They cant hardly sell their weanlings anymore and barrel bred weanlings are moving for GOOD money!. We are no longer the red headed step child using everybody elses rejects.
