ner. B.J Richards had the winning ride on Daddy Says Yes who is by the Cash Doctor while Dickie Gardner claimed reserve with Master Cruiser by Master Of Jazz. Both of these colts are NICE! Tiffany Calendar topped a large class of Country Pleasure Amateurs on Just Charlotte. That smile lighting up Tiffany’s face will be hard to wipe off! The Country Pleasure Amateur Riders 60+ was a tuffy. Riders did not look the age requirement but their experience came in handy. Lindy Holt steered Hey Charlene to the blue with Linda Sisk and Rich and Rare right on their heels. Great class Congratulations to all. Racking Country Pleasure Western put on a show for the audience with two entries from the Jim and Jason Morris Stables first and second. Jason Morris and San Diego were first and Nicholas Ellis was second with Jazz Valor. The Red Light District and new owner Ashlyn Avent won the Classic Trail Pleasure AOT with a excellent ride. Maggie Moore guided the Maiden winner to an im- pressive win in the Trail Pleasure Two Year Old class. Jennifer Batts was having a good show with her horses, always in the top money. Allens Danni Delight claimed the blue in the Classic All Day Championship! They looked good wearing that blue horseshoe! The twenty entry class of All Day Pleasure Novice Horse/Novice Rider class was stacked with talent, I’m A League Of My Own walked out with the blue amid cheers from the crowd for Chelsey Lynch who was over- come with emotion. The next class, the SPEED Racking Class, brought the house down with the good riding abilities of the rid- ers AND the death defying speed of the speed racking horses WOW!!! The crowd was electrified by JD Prime- time who went so fast I couldn’t keep up. Never missing a beat for TJ Safewright King it was an awesome sight as this pair literally laid down in the curves with their blazing speed!!!!! This was a MOST exciting class! Things calmed down as Jackie Dean and I’m Thun- derstruck smoothly walked to the win in the Trail Plea- sure Junior Horse for Peggy Fraley The Flat Shod Bareback Class proved one doesn’t need a saddle to show off the smooth gaits of the walk- ing horse. Lisa Weaver never moved on the back of the smooth walking Juan Carlos to be awarded the last blue of the night!!! The crowd at the Miller was really supportive of their favorites. It was very gratifying to hear the cheers and see the smiles on the faces of not only the first place winners but winners placing lower. It appeared everyone was having a LARGE time! Yay!!! Friday!!!! Depending on how you view it we are almost done!!!! Or Oh No just two more action packed days. Just two more days to try for a gorgeous horseshoe of roses!!! Soooo go get ‘em!!! Morgan Hodge and She’s Doubly Delightful were beautiful in their presentation of the colors. A little info concerning Doubly Delightful is that she has been out of commission raising foals for a couple of years. One of which won the Two-Year-Old All Day Pleasure just last night. Morgan borrowed her from owner, Jennifer Batts to give lessons to students. She’s Doubly Delightful has proved that she isn’t ready to be retired just yet as she has won nice ribbons all week for Morgan and owner, Jennifer Batts. A special presentation was held honoring Betty and Charles Tisher. Mr. Tisher has been the stat keeper at the International for years and this year “retired” from this position. The International just doesn’ t seem the same without Mr. and Mrs. Tisher on hand. Please read the dedication to this lovely couple in this issue. Buck Naked claimed the Classic All Day Pleasure Championship for the Chip Carrier family with Bon- nie Carrier making the good ride. This pair are really clicking. Hannah Myatt is responsible for the duo doing so well. So far there have been 1,585 horses come thru the 17
