Thompson Reigns Supreme in Juniors
Great Appy Reining continues in Tulsa, OK at the 64th Annual National ApHC Show! Wednesday evening brought the Junior Reiners into the Ford Truck Arena with a total of 7 entries. Pattern 8 was the judges choice and 4 of the 8 competitors scored in the 200’s – a very impressive showing. Non-Pro Jane Cairo (Miami, FL) had the 4th draw and after an almost flawless, well-executed go, she and Duntattooedavaquero were sitting in 1st place with a 208. But, it just wasn’t good enough, as the last contestant was Terry Thompson (Aubrey, TX) aboard Whiz N Onasign and Thompson showed why he is the master – a perfectly executed round with precision for each maneuver displayed by both horse and rider – earning Thompson a very impressive score of 210 1/2 and the championship! Great job by all and congratulations to Jane and Terry!
