WHOA Versatility Show
October 20, 2019 • Murfreesboro, TN
The WHOA Show held at MacGregor Stables was
just as nice as the lovely day. We were pleased to see
exhibitors from several states such as Georgia, Kentucky,
North Carolina, Virginia, Hawaii and then the ones
from across the big pond Italy! WOW! WHOA was
glad to see all of you including our in state exhibitors.
Personally I was delighted to see Victoria Martocci in
the show ring . It’s been awhile but Vitoria hasn’t lost her
touch. She still knows her way around a show ring and
did excellent jobs of piloting Dr. Gladney’s two horses
in winning form. Big Time Charlie strutted his stuff to
a blue and later in the show Lite ‘Em Up proved just as
adapt at walking her way to the winners circle. Good to
see you Victoria---try not to stay away so long!!
Scot and Lynn MacGregor had their facility immac-
ulate for our show. They had worked hard to have every
little thing ready for the show and it went off without a
hitch. Thanks to them for the use of this awesome facili-
ty. A huge thank you to the Bowlings and PWHAT who
loaned WHOA their sound system for the show. While I
am offering up thanks a must thank you goes out to Lori
Finch for the delicious brownies that served as appetiz-
ers until the pizza arrived. WHOA graciously furnished
pizza to all the exhibitors. Then an afternoon snack was
provided by Marilyn Carter’s popcorn. Don’t know what
she does to make it sweet but the popcorn is different
and delicious. THANKS TO ALL!
Ken Estes was the capable judge for the show and
his lovely wife, Elaine, pitched in to help by running
judge’s cards to the announcer and handing out ribbons
when the ribbon girl (and I use that word loosely) was
off taking pictures. It takes a village to put on a show
and thankfully the WHOA shows are filled with willing
volunteers.
In addition to the weanling and yearlings this show
had horses previously unseen in the show ring and they
did excellent jobs. Looks as if the future is bright as the
youth continue to show up and show out. All in all it
was a lovely day indeed.!
