WHOA Versatility Show
June 16, 2019 • Brownsville, Tennessee
After a very successful horse show
on Saturday the T & S Company left
early Sunday for Brownsville KY.
With very little traffic we arrived at
the show ground early and started
doubting the success of the show
what with it being Father’s Day
+ the weather forecast was NOT
conducive to a good show. Imagine
our delight when trailer after trailer
filled with horses spilled onto the
picturesque Brownsville Saddle Club
Show grounds. After being rained
out TWICE Mother Nature gave us
a break and although cloudy the rain
held off and the breeze felt good.
Our honorable judge, Dean Craw-
ford handled the large classes with
expertise and promptness.
Sixteen (Yep I typed 16) entries
challenged each other for the blue
in the Trail Class with the winner
being Belle of Rocky Hill, a Starnes
owned and trained entry ready to
claim her place in the trail fame
domicile. Every class had at least
one entry. THANK YOU to all who
came out and shared Father’s Day
with WHOA.
One hundred eighty six entries
were the total AND this is without
the usual versatility classes. WHOA
rocked the week end of June 15 and
16 If you missed either show you
missed a good one. I was shocked (
pleasantly) by the number of youth
entries on Saturday. Welllll Sunday
proved just as shocking with 8 youth
riders in the 4 H Class and 14!!!!!!!
In the Youth Flat Shod. Yipeeeee!
Come on out youth and make those
“mature” folks work for their rib-
bons.

New comers to the WHOA show circuit, Brenda
and Louis Highfield. The long haul from Lancast-
er OH was worth with the trip. Troubles Touch Of Gold and Steve Ponder proved
to be too much trouble for the other entries as
they bested a large field of nice horses.
J and T Stables had a terrific day. Young Taylor
Harvey won four firsts with Ample Cash Down. Pretty, Tammy Sapp aboard an equally pretty,
Grady. Wolf just out prettied the competition to
Winn the Lite Shod Class.

Fourteen good moving entries made the selection
tough for Judge, Dean Crawford.
