Gold Buckles Dreams Are Realized at 52nd Wrangler National Finals Rodeo

revor Brazile smiled from ear to ear, pumped his fist to the crowd and walked out of the Thomas & Mack Center arena with his second Triple Crown in four years. The Decatur, Texas, cowboy won the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo tie-down roping average and finished second with partner Patrick Smith in the team roping average to secure world titles in both events to go along with his record eighth all-around crown, which he clinched in Round 2. In front of a sold-out crowd of 17,683, Brazile won his first tie-down roping

average and first team roping gold buckle en route to becoming just the third cowboy in PRCA history to become a multiple Triple Crown winner. He joined ProRodeo Hall of Famers Jim Shoulders (1956-58) and Everett Bowman (1935, 1937) with that distinction and became the first contestant in ProRodeo history to earn $500,000 in a single season with his $507,921. “It means so much to me, because I think everything has got so specialized,” said Brazile, who now has a total of 14 world titles. “Nobody shows up and does three events on the same horse anymore, because it’s so competitive. That’s why I work my tail off every year, because of the respect I have for my competition. I don’t take these championships lightly, because I know how tough the field was. I’ve been blessed.” Brazile joined Bowman as the only cowboys to win Triple Crowns with two different event combinations, as his first trifecta came in the all-around, tie-down roping and steer roping four years ago. Brazile pocketed $211,509 at the Wrangler NFR, a PRCA record for the most money won at a single rodeo, and far more than the previous record of $149,099 he set in 2008. Because of those earnings, Brazile won the Wrangler NFR’s all-around title and also earned the inaugural Ram Top Gun Award – which included the keys to a 2011 Ram 3500. Brazile and Smith, the 2005 world champion heeler, won the team roping world championship ahead of Clay Tryan and Travis Graves. They had a 7.5-second run in Round 10 and placed in eight of 10 rounds in Las Vegas on their way to the world titles. Brazile and Smith earned a whopping $120,419 at the Finals to become the first

team ropers to eclipse the $200,000 in season earnings and jump from eighth to first in the PRCA World Standings. Brazile finished with $201,392, with Tryan in second with $184,739. Smith tallied $202,189, while Graves was second with $185,784. “When I won the team roping, that was something they weren’t expecting me to do at all,” said Brazile, who did not lead the heading standings during the season until the end of Round 10. “Then that put even more pressure on me in the calf roping; I’d already done it where they didn’t expect me to, I sure couldn’t screw it up where they thought it was a lay-up.” Their money totals broke the previous team roping single-season earnings record of $189,568 set by Matt Sherwood and Randon Adams in 2008. “What a difference a year makes,” Smith said. “Last year was a humbling experience. We came out here third in the world last year, had a great chance at a title and left here with $2,700. This year, we came out here eighth without really any chance and ended up winning the world title. It was an exciting and fun week, and I’m grateful to be standing here.” Luke Brown and Martin Lucero won the Wrangler NFR average with a 65.5-second 10-head total and climbed to third in the world after finishing as the only team with 10 qualified runs. In the tie-down roping, Brazile finished with $233,827 to claim his third gold buckle in that event in four years (2007, 2009), with his brother-in-law, Tuf Cooper, in second with $203,968. Brazile’s Wrangler NFR average crown came after he won one round and placed in at total of four continued on page 2

JANUARY 2011

Competitorial

o, as 2010 winds to a close I have to say that it was all and all a pretty good one. Sure, the economy could have been better…but then…it could have been worse. I received an email from a friend of mine a couple days ago that pretty much summed it up. If you have food to eat, a roof over your head and clothes on your back, you are richer than 80% of the people in the world…. so things are pretty good. As this issue finds you during the holiday season, let me just wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a prosperous 2011. What about that NFR? I know there was plenty of talk of how the economy has hit the PRCA pretty hard, but it was hard to tell from the product the PRCA put forth at this year’s NFR. Not unlike the tremendous product the USTRC put forth at its recent NFTR in the midst of a suffering economy, this year’s NFR was as good as any I’ve seen. Top quality rodeo is just good to experience and there is nothing that comes close to the quality of the NFR and the job the PRCA does in bringing the production to light. As always there were things I wish

Brazile Wins

were different, but it’s hard to find much fault in the overall product. As for the outcome, every year it seems there is a race for the world title that captures your attention. Who could help but root for Trevor Brazile? I know it’s been done before, but what he did was pretty spectacular. It always makes it easy to pull for someone when they happen to be a good person to boot. Brazile certainly fits the bill in that regard as well… I’m happy for all his success. NFR qualifiers from Arizona and New Mexico did their part to “represent,” but it just wasn’t in the cards this year to bring home a world title. Taos Muncy (Corona, NM) had us all on the edge of our chair at last year’s NFR, but just couldn’t seem to get going this time around. Sydni Blanchard was the lone barrel racer from our region, but no one in the barrel racing was a match for Sherri Cervi this year… what a beat down she handed down this season… Wow! As usual, Arizona sent a contingent of team ropers, none more notable than Derrick Begay. What a meteoric rise he’s made in the last couple years. I was glad to see him representing not only a long

and prolific history of Arizona ropers, but also his fellow Native American ropers. It would not surprise me a bit to see a bunch more from the Indian rodeo ranks make the jump and follow in Derricks footsteps in the coming years. There’s always been a lot of roping talent hiding in the four corners region… Derrick may well be the one that opens the floodgate on that talent. One thing I couldn’t help but notice in the team roping is that every one of the “young guns” are familiar names and faces. It doesn’t seem like it was that long ago that most every one of them were competing (and winning) in the novice divisions at USTRC events. Even then it was evident that these guys would find their way to the pinnacle of the sport if they stayed committed and on track, so in that regard, I guess it’s really not a surprise to see them under the lights at the NFR. I think it’s a compliment to the sport that it continues to nurture young talent, and to the USTRC that provides them a place to compete. As I punch out the last of these words on my keyboard, one more year comes to a close, and with it, a bunch of good memories from the months past… what a

score in Round 10 to clinch the title, and he finished fifth with an 85-pointer on Frontier Rodeo’s Delta Ship. McDaniel, the 2008 world champion, won the average with a 10-head total of 836.5 points, five points better than Mote’s total. “My goal was obviously to win a world title, but it was pretty far-fetched coming into this,” Mote said. “Ryan (Gray) got hurt, and that opened the door. I hate to take advantage of his misfortune, but it was an opportunity, and things started coming around for me. I had a game plan to just get a good spur-out and make a good ride (in the final round), and here I am.” Another cowboy who found his way back to the world champions’ stage was steer wrestler Dean Gorsuch, who won his

first world title in 2006. Gorsuch, of Gering, Neb., tied Billy Bugenig for the Wrangler NFR average title on his way to his second gold buckle. He and Bugenig each took home $40,673 for the average split, and Gorsuch’s $93,774 in Las Vegas earnings propelled him from third to first place in the final PRCA World Standings. Gorsuch – who won one round and placed in a total of six rounds – finished the season with $186,477, while Canada’s Curtis Cassidy was second with $166,775. “I went at it every night, and it felt great,” said Gorsuch, who also won the Wrangler NFR average in 2006. “I did everything I could do. My hazer, Del Kraupie, my best friend, did great all week

whirlwind it’s been. As usual, there’s no slowdown in sight, but I hope that all of us take just a extra moment or two, to really appreciate those people who make our lives better. So, to start it off, let me thank all of the thousands of readers of The A ll-A round, as well as all those who advertise in it. Merry Christmas and best wishes,

rounds to finish with a 10-head time of 88.6 seconds. Cooper, who won Round 10 with a rodeo-best 6.9-second run, was second in the average with a 96.7-second total. Cooper won an event-best $96,599 in Las Vegas and finished second to Brazile in the PRCA World Standings for the second consecutive year. Bareback rider Bobby Mote, who came into this year’s Wrangler NFR in fifth place in the PRCA World Standings, won his fourth world title after finishing second in the average behind Justin McDaniel. Mote, of Culver, Ore., won two rounds and placed in seven en route to $115,099 in Wrangler NFR earnings and another gold buckle with a $204,484 total for the season. Mote needed only to have a qualified

The Big Turkey

hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving spending time with family and friends. Congratulations to all of the winners at the “Big Turkey” in Arizona last weekend! Tom Saganitso and Ray Lane collected that big $5,000 check in the #10. Also, congrats to Umberto Guarduno and Boots Maria for topping the #8 ropers. Both of these ropings had low entry fees of only $50 per man. The #8 roping is exactly how I wanted it – there were 238 teams competing, we brought 30 teams back to the short round and a 34.92

on three steers still won saddles. These times show what happens when you compete against a level playing field. It looks like we figured correctly that the amateur ropers needed a place to rope if you consider the number of new ropings and producers now targeting amateurs. From “Amateur this,” to “Amateur that,” they are copying our ideas with capped ropings, forced drawins, and guaranteed prize lines. It’s said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! Just know that you can keep counting on us to lead the way.

High Noon’s 2011 Western Americana Weekend Event to Celebrate the Rich Heritage of the American Indian

igh Noon Western Americana of Los Angeles (CA) is extremely honored to announce that their January 29-30, 2011 Western Americana Weekend Event will begin their year-long celebration of the powerful cultural and historic influences that the more than 560 American Indian tribes have had on the this country. Their culture, spirit and endurance are deeply woven into each of our lives. High Noon is committed to ensuring that, through education and promotion of who they were and continue to be, that their culture will continue to thrive and grow even stronger. 2010 for High Noon was a landmark year, seeing record sales in both Mesa (AZ) and New York fueled by the Roy Rogers Museum sales and the Maximilian saddle, being catapulted to the front of major media with a two-page spread in the Wall Street Journal and countless other national media attention from ACB News to CNN. “2010 was an amazing year for the American cowboy,” says Linda Kohn Sherwood, co-owner of High Noon, “but we are ready to take a step back and turn our attention to those peoples who created the backbone of our land.” To that end, this year’s January 29, 2011 High Noon Western Americana Auction will feature some of the most important American Indian art and artifacts to ever come to market. “It’s through offering these treasures from these powerful nations, that we can do our part to ensure that their legacy is passed on to future generations,” said Kohn Sherwood.

The High Noon Western Americana Antique Show — January 29-30 The event will begin Saturday morning, January 29th at 9 a.m. when the doors to the most extraordinary Western Americana shopping experience will open. For two days, Saturday and Sunday, over 150 of the nation’s finest exhibitors featuring the best in historic to contemporary Western Americana will fill the exhibit halls. The richness of the West will be exemplified in the fine selection of antique cowboy, Native American and Vaquero art and artifacts to name just a few. On the contemporary side, shoppers can indulge in original creations from some of the country’s top artisans in leather and silver — from clothing to furniture.

The High Noon Western Americana Auction The January 29, 2011 High Noon Western Americana Auction will feature extremely important pieces of the history and heritage of the American Indian. Sioux, Plateau, Kiowa, Cheyenne, Blackfoot and other tribes will be represented. Among the highlights in this category is a Plateau Pony Beaded Dress, circa 1860 in fine condition, estimated to achieve $40,000 to $80,000. Surpassing this estimate will be a Sioux Man’s Beaded Shirt, circa 1880 also in fine condition. A wonderful Cheyenne Beaded Baby Carrier, circa 1880 is estimated at $25,000 to $50,000 followed by an enchanting Sioux Quilled Elk Dreamer Dress (estimate: $30,000 to $50,000). American Indian offerings won’t be the only category with extremely important lots. Likely one of the most important collection of bronzes to come to market will also be offered. Works by Joe Beeler, John Coleman, Harry Jackson and Bill Nebeker, among others, will draw national bidding. Coming from Joe Beeler will be his signed bronze on wood base Crazy Horse expected to achieve $15,000 to $25,000. Keokuk Sac and Fox Chief, a signed bronze in wood base by John Coleman is estimated at $6,000 to $8,000. Western American fine art offerings will also be exceptional with artist Will James highlighting this category. Entitled Wild Horses this important signed oil on board is estimated to earn $50,000 to $100,000. For over 20 years, High Noon has deservedly earned a reputation for representing the most important and finest saddles in the world. This is what caught the attention of the Wall Street Journal resulting in their September 21, 2010 two-page editorial coverage of saddles as an investment with High Noon noted as the auction house which represents the finest and most important. The January 2011 auction won’t disappoint saddle collectors. Several historic saddles will be offered with three Bohlin saddles at the top of this category. An Edward H. Bohlin Machris Model Parade Saddle is estimated at $35,000 to $60,000 followed by a Taxin model Edward H. Bohlin Parade ensemble expected to achieve $40,000 to $60,000. An Edward H. Bohlin Dick Dickson Jr. Saddle is estimated at $25,000 to $50,000. Furthering exceptional works from Bohlin will be truly one-of-a-kind pieces from the car of a Southern California, Yucca Valley personality. From the Bohlin mounted longhorns on the front, to the Bohlin engraved Colt knobs, handles, Bohlin saddlebags and the Bohlin silver saddle center console, these works of art that comprised this vehicle will all be sold as separate lots — nothing like it ever seen before! Even Elvis’ signature (among others) adorns the tonneau cover! And yes, as expected, the High Noon auction will feature the finest bits, spurs, gun rigs, and as always, captivating pieces of Western Hollywoodiana. Boots? Oh, yes,

Highlighting the important bronze collection will be Joe Beeler’s signed Bronze on wood base “Crazy Horse,” expected to achieve $15,000-25,000.

Three Sioux pictorial beaded vests, c 1880’s. Each estimated approx $6-12,000

This rare and important Sioux Man’s Beaded Pictorial Shirt, c 1880 is expected to sell for $50,000100,000

USTRC - Insider 2011

eam roping is a great sport and it’s a pretty good business for those who have the ability to weather the storms, taking the little that can be wrong and weigh in balance with so much that is right. For the majority of ropers in the USTRC, team roping is their escape from everything else that demands their attention; be that work, relationships and lately, how the bi-polar economy is affecting their daily lives. It does seem that we wake up in a different world almost every day and I, for one, am glad I am involved in a sport that, for the most part, stays the same in its ability to deliver challenging competition, a chance to win some significant cash and more importantly, the opportunity to spend time with our families and people we enjoy. Over the past couple of years, events in our country have taught us that change for the sake of change isn’t always a good idea and adding bells and whistles to something doesn’t necessarily make it a better product. Yes, change has happened in the USTRC, but not without thought and input from the members, which USTRC has received more of in this past year than perhaps any other. USTRC has been a very successful organization for the past 20 years for good reason and I believe three characteristics of USTRC are key to that success.

SUSTAINABILITY Many USTRC ropers come from an agricultural background, so the term “sustainability” is a familiar one, and has long peppered the conversations of analysts and producers over the years as they discuss how best to keep crops, livestock and the markets sustainable. Sustainability is the capacity to endure and this past year, USTRC has shown that capacity. Never before has the sport of team roping faced the challenges it faced in 2010. There is no denying that entries overall were down in the sport, as they were in almost every other segment of the horse industry. Actually, USTRC was, in a sense, lucky, as the downturn actually came much later to our sport than it did other segments of the industry. This is a pay for play sport. We all gamble when we decide to pay an entry fee and rely on a string of hopes. Hope that we draw a good steer, hope that our partner catches and hope that our time falls in the money. There is no gamble, however, in the assurance we have of enjoying the sport, which is what makes it a passion for so many. But when ropers don’t have the amount of discretionary income to compete, they either make the choice to stay closer to home, rope less or not to rope. Ropers I have talked to made those choices, most of whom say they roped less or stayed closer to home, roping in local jackpots and the like, yet there is room for optimism. One of USTRC’s initiatives over the past year was to create a two-way conversation with its members to learn more about what matters to them and it’s been the only roping organization to do

so. Much of this was accomplished through a series of surveys that were conducted after several USTRC sanctioned events and the National Finals of Team Roping. Ropers tell us that they do plan to rope more in 2011 and rate USTRC highest in the areas of production, customer service and fair classifications when compared to other roping organizations. I have to give all the credit for those ratings to a USTRC staff that is unequaled and a line-up of professional producers who continually strive to do better. The USTRC has endured one of the toughest economies ever, and yet, has continually brought the best in professionalism to our members. No matter how big or small the roping, our ropers always found the same level of courtesy, quality of production and assurance of fair competition. Our staff and producers never stopped finding ways to meet the demands of ropers despite tighter budgets and shrinking margins. I also have to commend the resiliency of the ropers. Your passion for this sport never ceases to amaze me and for many of you, finding the resources to rope got tougher, but you did it. I also appreciate it when your passion causes you to pick up the phone and call me or one of our staff and let us know what you like about USTRC or what you’d like to see changed to make USTRC and the sport better. If you talk to our staff, the goal is and has always been to please 100 percent of the people 100 percent of the time. Realistically, that’s not possible and admittedly, it’s disappointing and somewhat disheartening to get those calls critical of a decision when that decision was made in the best interest of the whole. Don’t misunderstand. There are a lot more critical calls that come to our offices on a daily basis than positive ones. That’s human nature and that’s business. This is another area our surveys have helped in getting a better grasp of the majority view versus a vocal minority. For example, our surveys told us that moving to higher average pay in 2010 was more likely the call of a vocal minority and, as a result, extended average pay and incentives are back in 2011 because it appears the majority want to see the payout dollars go farther. I suspect the truth is somewhere in between and that most ropers are more interested in a fair chance to win than in anything else.

ropers. Fact is, ropers have more available to them than ever before to learn about the sport and practice with tools that weren’t available ten or even five years ago. Web sites, videos, mechanical steers, more clinics . . . are all tools that are making our game an even more challenging sport, and that’s what makes team roping stand out from all other sports. Because of the ratings system, specifically TRIAD, team roping has the most even playing field of any of the “rodeo” sports. From nine to ninety, ropers can find a place to compete no matter their age or skill level. I’m proud of that fact and so are others, because USTRC continues to do the heavy lifting when it comes to ratings and freely shares its information with producers about those ratings, even when those producers choose not to affiliate. It’s that important. So, admittedly, I am often left scratching my head when some point a finger at USTRC for rating people out of their ability to compete. That accusation is totally contrary to USTRC’s ability to conduct business. Rating people out of competition means lost business, but rating people fairly and as accurately as possible means fair competition. The latter certainly outweighs the former and it’s only common sense to do it that way. Do people get missed? No doubt. Skill levels can improve in an incredibly short amount of time and the data or that person may not be seen in as little as couple of months. In the meantime, that person has gotten more competitive. While ropers want to get better and work long hours in the practice pen to get there, they don’t necessarily want their improved roping skills to show up in their rating. USTRC depends on its producers to let us know about those people and is one of the reasons the ratings dials are no longer visible on the member page. While our members say they like the ability to view their dials and ratings in that manner, our producers tell us a different story, saying ropers threaten to boycott them if they provide that information to USTRC. Again, the minority manipulating the majority, but getting the data and keeping it fair outweighs the value of making the information available online. Fact is, the wolves need the sheep, but USTRC isn’t in the business of feeding the sheep to the wolves and won’t ever be.

COMMON SENSE There is no way to talk about team roping without mentioning classifications, and no, unlike one phone call we received, a monkey could not do that job. As a matter of fact, it is probably one of the most thankless roles in USTRC, but without a doubt the most important. TRIAD, or Team Roping Information and Data, is unquestionably the most objective classification system available, though it’s never been presented as perfect or infallible. On any given day, at any given roping, a roper can rope above or below his or her number, especially if they happen to be one of our younger

STANDARDS Someone asked me the other day why USTRC continues to hold ropings in expensive facilities and at the same level it always has when it could easily go to less expensive facilities, a lower level prize line and lease local cattle. USTRC could therefore cut its expenses and thus lower its entry fees whereby ropers would find it more affordable. Ropers would also find it less than the quality than they expect and deserve. USTRC ends with the word “Championships” for a reason. Besides revolutionizing the industry with a

ratings program, USTRC brought a level of production to the industry that developed a new standard of professionalism and expectation from the roper. Great producers want to be a part of something that insists on that level of professionalism and believe in what it’s done for the sport. It’s no accident USTRC’s network of producers is the very best in the industry. USTRC shares its brand and its business with these folks whose integrity brings new dimension to the sport every year. We’re in total unison when it comes to upholding the high standards ropers expect at a sanctioned event. A great facility, quality prizes, great cattle and professional staff are not subject to compromise and every bit worth the cost. Even though the woes of the economy have affected some regions of the United States more than others, USTRC and its producers remain committed to the continued development of the sport. As the economy improves the Midwest and the east are poised for growth much like the western and southwestern states experienced in the mid 1990’s. We are seeing a true balance of skill and talent in the sport across the nation, whereas, not that many years ago, most of the talent was in the western and southwestern states. Not so anymore. The quality of horses and level of skill has improved from coast to coast-making team roping across the country more exciting and competitive. I recognize that our friends in the west and northwest continue to struggle. USTRC can’t help the economy and it will likely take that area of the country a little longer to come back. Sure, it’s easy to walk away when times get tough. That happens in business all the time. Shut down the less productive areas, work on those growing markets and save yourself. USTRC doesn’t work that way. We’re here for the team roper and we’re not going to turn our back on that part of the country. We want to provide ropers in those areas with opportunities to qualify for their Regional Finals, as well as the National Finals of Team Roping. If that’s not their goal, we’ll bring other events so they can get the quality standard delivered to their area. Yes, if you ask me, the sport team roping is doing just fine, but there is always room for improvement and growth. At its core, USTRC is doing what it’s supposed to do and that’s providing fair competition in a professionally managed and family friendly environment. USTRC will continue to lead the industry in providing a level playing field and representing the sport to the rest of horse world, along with sharing the sport internationally. The USTRC family is looking forward to 2011 with great anticipation, The 2010 Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping was a tremendous encouragement as were those of you who took the time to stop by and offer a hello, a thank you or an encouraging word. Thanks for you continued trust in USTRC. Kirk Bray

My Cowboy Heroes

Being Shot At Story and Photos Compliments of Jim Olson

CRX’D

I’

been to war, never lived in a foreign country, or anything you might normally associate with being shot at. I was shot at by the law, but didn’t deserve it! I was innocent! It was a little misunderstanding involving a trigger happy cop, mixed with bravado and beer. It went something like this. My buddy and I had just broken down in a “borrowed” pickup truck on a long stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere. I say “borrowed” with a little emphasis to it because…let’s just say the vehicle was a little over due to be returned to its rightful owner. Some might say it was a stolen pickup at that point, as a matter of fact, some did say it was stolen, but I will contend it was borrowed. When that pickup truck quit running and left us stranded on the side of the highway, we were tool-less and clueless. There weren’t any phones around for miles in any direction and things didn’t look good right CRX’Dabout then. So we just took off walking in the direction where there should be a pay phone. It was about dusk and before it was said and done we wound up walking ten miles or so in the dark. Boy, did our feet hurt before long. We had both just purchased brand new Tony Lamas! Several cars passed us that evening and into the night, but nobody would stop to help. We were a little put out by their rude behavior, but looking back on it now, I guess the mean blue heeler cow dog growling at everyone as they passed or slowed down, and the fact we had taken with us the most important thing from that broken down truck (the remnants of a 24 pack of beer)…well I guess I can see why people may have been a little leery to stop. After walking several hours, we arrived at this little convenience store and bar combination at a highway junction in the middle of nowhere. You know the kind of place, two highways intersect there, but there is no town around for quite a ways, so some enterprising individual opens up and sells cold drinks, tee shirts, gas and souvenirs to anyone willing to stop. Of course, there are always the local cowboys who don’t want to drive all the way to town to get alcoholic drinks also. Anyway, this little place just happened to have a pay phone on the wall on the highway side of the building. Perfect! It was pretty dark that night, everywhere except the parking lot area that is, which was well lit by a street light. Of course, there wasn’t anyone around, as expected, since it was about midnight on a weekday. Now, we can call a friend in the next town to come and rescue us. The only problem was...no change. But that’s okay; we’ll just wake up the feller who owns the establishment. He lived in the quarters attached to the rear of the building. Besides that, maybe we could convince him to sell us more beer while he’s at it. Well, we went to banging on the doors

ve been shot at! No…it wasn’t a jealous husband, a jealous boyfriend or anything of that nature (although it may have been warranted a time or two). It wasn’t over a horse trade, a cattle deal gone bad or because I held someone up. Never

and windows to the little place hoping to rouse somebody to come give us some change…and of course, more beer. After several minutes of banging and hollering, to no apparent avail, there suddenly appeared a pistol waving storekeeper out of the darkness! “Whoa now feller, there’s no need for pointing a pistol at us!” is what I told him. But he just started hollering that we were trying to break into his store and he had called the law already. “And besides that, I got word they’re looking for a couple of desperadoes that stole a pickup truck,” he said. “I don’t suppose you two are them?” “Nope, not us,” my friend told him. “Now wait just a minute; if we were trying to break into your store and were wanted by the law, would we be making so much noise trying to rouse you out of bed? No! We just want some change…and maybe a little beer. That’s all…can you help us out?” It was a perfectly good sounding explanation to me, but mister storekeeper wasn’t having any of it. After trying to talk to him for a minute and getting nowhere, we decided to leave as the dog was getting awful nervous and growling at the ol’ boy. I told him, “See ya!” and turned around to walk towards the highway junction. My friend followed suit. The irate store keeper hollered, “Stop!” and that the law would be there any minute. Well, let me tell you, we were tired, sore footed, and in no mood for him or the law at that moment, so we kept right on walking. He hollered, “Stop!” again and said, “I’ll shoot,”…but luckily he didn’t. We were hoping he wasn’t coyote enough to shoot us in the back. We kept our hands in plain sight. No tellin’ what that over-reactor would do with that pistol. In just a few minutes we were out of the light by the store and were in the darkness near the highway junction. I had a suspicion that we better get hid out before the law got there. Sure enough, in a short time, this black patrol car comes sliding to a stop in front of the little store. We could see all this from our hiding spot which was in some brush a little north of where we had left the lighted parking lot. Apparently the pistol wielding store keeper and the highway patrolman knew each other. We could hear some of what was said, and mister storekeeper wasn’t doing us any favors at all. He painted a bad picture of two drunken cowboys trying to break into his store, then the bar, and then his living quarters. Oh yeah, they are very drunk and dangerous, demanding more beer…and they have a vicious attack cow dog with them! They fit the description of the desperadoes wanted for stealing the vehicle also! “You sound like a pretty bad hombre,” I told my friend. “I think they’re talkin’ bout you, not me,” was the comeback. So this store keeper and the highway

patrolman head into the direction whence we had gone. Pistols drawn! As they approached the darkness, some wild animal made a lot of noise in the brush about the same spot they thought we should have been hid out. It was just a little south of our present position and we had a good view of it all. The highway patrolman hollers, “Freeze!” and points his pistol at the brush. God must have been looking out for two drunken cowboys that night because what ever was in the brush took off running south. You could hear the brush crashing as it tried making its get away. Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! The highway patrolman fires four times in rapid succession at the noise of the crashing brush. “Holy smokes! That sorry *#*#*# is firing at us!” says my partner. “Or at least what he thinks is us,” says I. “Lets get the heck out of here, that guy likes to shoot first and ask questions later!” While the patrolman and the storekeeper probed the scene of the shooting, we got the heck out of there in the opposite direction, muy pronto. We were careful not to make much noise while at it, just wanting to put distance between us and mister trigger happy highway patrolman. It sure was a long walk to town that night, especially since we kept to the brush and avoided the roadway from there on out. We didn’t arrive at a friendly location until just after dawn the next morning…tired and hobbling pretty badly. The next day we located the rightful owner of the pickup truck and helped him get it back home and running once again. We also persuaded him to talk to the judge with us for apparently we’d become wanted while out on our little jaunt; all charges were eventually dropped. A couple of days later we stopped by the scene of the incident at the highway junction. Being extremely careful to avoid the little store and its owner, we found a bloody trail leading to the south. Couple hundred yards later, we came across a dead deer in the brush…shot 4 times! “That could have been us!” says I, as a cold shiver ran down my spine. “We sure are a couple of lucky cowboys,” says my friend. “Being shot at ain’t so lucky, but that deer taking the fall for us shore was.” The moral of my story is; If you steal a truck, ‘cause you’re down on your luck Don’t take it too far, and avoid the bars When needing a quarter, don’t wake the owner If avoiding the cops, don’t take long to stop When you want more beer, don’t wind up like that deer!

Business Administration. She also took numerous Masters courses and lacked only the writing of her thesis to complete her Master’s Degree. While at Utah State she was a great asset to the rodeo team and competed in barrel racing, goat tying, and breakaway roping events. Her accomplished skills in the arena and her engaging personality helped her become an ambassador of the state when she was crowned Miss Utah State Rodeo Queen. She also held many other rodeo queen titles across Utah and Colorado. While at Utah State she met the love of her life, William “Bill” Dee Cornia, Jr. from Randolph, Utah. They were married in the Ogden Temple on August 16, 1974. They moved to Randolph in 1976 where she began working for the Rich County School District. She was the Business Administrator and School Board Clerk for 34 years and thoroughly enjoyed her job and all the people she worked with over her career. Tricia was a devoted wife and mother to her three kids and husband. Over the years she followed the Rich High School basketball team, and her two sons and husband, as they played and coached across the state. She also supported her daughter while she followed in Tricia’s footsteps, participating in many rodeo events. In addition to these activities, she was also bookkeeper, announcer, and secretary for the family’s team roping business. Tricia and her husband Bill, along with their family, have produced many great events which helped evolve the sport of team roping in Utah. For many years they have been the producing agents behind such great USTRC sanctioned team roping events as the Red Desert Classic and the Dally for Dinosaurs. In addition to her full time job and her support in the team roping arena, Tricia dedicated herself to many other areas of life where she no doubt knew she could help others. She was an active member of the LDS Church and served in many positions over her life including Primary Presidency, Young Women’s Presidency, and Visiting Teacher. She was also an active member in community and civic affairs where she gladly volunteered her time. Tricia lost her long fight of a virus that affected her heart and passed away on December 2, 2010 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Tricia was preceded in death by her mother and father; a still-born son, Chase Cornia; and her in-laws, Dee and Helen Cornia of Randolph. She is survived by her husband, Bill; her three children, Jodi and Ben Clements of Stephenville, Texas; Lex and Lisa Cornia of Evanston; and Jade Cornia of Randolph. She is also survived by two grandchildren, Tess and Brady Cornia of Evanston; and by her two brothers, Mark and Marlene Crowther of Sanford, Colorado and Mack and Luella Crowther of Sanford; and her in-laws, Jim and Kristie Thornton of Evanston and Pete and Pam Cornia of Randolph. Funeral services were arranged by Crandall Funeral Home and held in Randolph Chapel on Tuesday, December 7, 2010.

Nine-time NFR qualifier Lee Cockrell dies at 77 Lee Younger Cockrell, who qualified for the National Finals Rodeo nine times as a tiedown roper and won the 1966 NFR average title, died November, 19 at the Presbyterian Manor in Lawrence, Kansas. He was 77 years old. Cockrell grew up on his grandparents’ O.H. Ingrum Ranch east of Pampa, Texas, where he learned the cowboy skills that led him to a successful career as a high school, college and professional tie-down roping champion. He won the College National Finals Rodeo tie-down roping title in 1954, capping an unbeaten season at Hardin-Simmons University, and established himself as one of the event’s most consistent performers over a 15-year span in the Rodeo Cowboys Association. Cockrell qualified for the inaugural NFR in 1959 – where he won Round 10 in 11.3 seconds, the fastest time of the rodeo – and took part eight more times in 1963-68, 1972 and 1974. In 1966, he placed in four rounds on his way to winning the NFR average with a cumulative time of 124.5 seconds on eight head in Oklahoma City, beating runner-up Junior Garrison by more than five seconds. Cockrell was the only tie-down roper in the 1960s to win the so-called Grand Slam of that era – rodeos at Madison Square Garden in New York, the Cheyenne (Wyo.) Frontier Days, the Calgary (Alberta) Stampede and the Grand National in San Francisco. At the Greeley (Colo.) Stampede, the largest of all July 4th rodeos, Cockrell won nine roping championships from 1958-69 on eight different horses. He continued competing in roping contests in over-45 Senior Rodeo Association events, and in 1993, at the age of 60, Lee

averaged 9.7 seconds over four rounds to win the Legends of Rodeo National Finals. In 1991, Cockrell was the first rodeo champion to be inducted into the Panhandle Sports Hall of Fame in Amarillo, Texas. In addition to his record-breaking rodeo career, Cockrell was a successful farmer and businessman, operating Lee Y. Cockrell Enterprises on I-40 East in Amarillo, Texas, where he ran a Western store, held match ropings, conducted roping schools and manufactured rodeo equipment. Cockrell trained some of the most famous roping horses used by other tie-down roping greats, like Dean Oliver and Glen Franklin. Cockrell was preceded in death by mother Alice Ingrum Gray, stepfather Holly Gray and his first daughter, Teresa Lee Cockrell. He is survived by daughters, Trena Sue Cockrell-Santee of Lawrence Kan., and Lara Lee Cockrell-Larson of Honolulu; and three grandsons, Edward Weston Santee, Hollis Ingrum Santee and Chase Crawford. A cremation is planned. A memorial service and burial will be held in Pampa, Texas, with a date to be announced soon. Memorial contributions may be made to the Parkinson’s Foundation and sent in care of Lawrence Chapel Oaks, 3821 W. 6th Street, Lawrence, KS 66049. Online condolences may be made at www.barnettchapeloaks.com.

Kinkead was a cowboy from an early age, helping his father with the family ranch in eastern New Mexico, and he entered his first rodeo competition at 12, riding his beloved pony, Popcorn, at a race on a dirt track in Quay Valley to win $10. He went on to participate in all rodeo events, but his real love was in roping, especially steer roping. He qualified for the NFSR in 1970, 1973 and 1977-78. His best season was 1977, when he finished eighth in the world standings. One rodeo announcer said that Kinkead had thrown enough loops in his lifetime to reach around the world. He honed his roping skills working on the family ranch, roping cows and calves when they were being doctored, and for the spring branding. Kinkead was an avid horseman and was well known for being a good judge of horses, always riding top quality horses. He was a great horse trainer and coach for many competitors, including his daughters, who went on to compete at the collegiate and professional levels. He is survived by his wife, Letty Jo; daughters, Linda (Tom) Johnston of Junction, Texas, and Donna Patterson of Normangee, Texas; three grandsons, Pard Patterson of Normangee; Lewis Fordtran Johnston of Junction; and Kinkead Johnston of Sweetwater, Texas; nine great grandchildren; a sister, Dorothy Farmer; a brother, Jimmy Kinkead and many nieces and nephews. Services will be held in Tucumcari, N.M., at a date to be determined. The family suggests that donations in Kinkead’s name be made to VistaCare Hospice, 1001 Water St., Suite B-100, Kerrville, TX 78028; the Kimble County Library, 208 N. 10th St., Junction, TX 76849, or the charity of one’s choice.

CBR - Championship Bull Riding 2011 CBR Tour

JANUARY 2011

BP Super Series will feature five series of three rounds each with eight contestants per event; two Semifinal Rounds with 10 contestants per each event; one Wild Card Round with 12 contestants per each event; and a Championship Round featuring 10 contestants per each event. This format will result in 40 contestants in each event. “RODEOHOUSTON™ has always featured bull riding’s best and toughest cowboys,” said Joe Bruce Hancock, general manager of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™. “Having the CBR World Champion as part of our rodeo continues that tradition.” Since earning over $150,000 and his first CBR World Championship in Kansas City last month, Luke Kelley has been in the back woods of Illinois, guiding deer hunts for his company K&W Outfitters. After learning that his CBR World Championship earned him a birth into RODEOHOUSTON™ 2011, Kelley was all smiles, “That is awesome. I have always wanted to compete at RODEOHOUSTON™. This will be a great opportunity for me to show the world what CBR is all about!” CBR President Tuff Hedeman, who won the coveted Bull Riding Championship at Houston in 1996, said “It is an honor for the CBR World Champion to be recognized and included on the list of contestants at one of the greatest rodeos in the world. We look forward to Luke representing CBR in Houston next year.” For more information on RODEOHOUSTON™, visit www.hlsr.com, or call 832.667.1200.

he New Year is here. Christmas has passed and we can all look forward to spring, which is just around the corner. I hope you had a great Holiday Season and like me you, too, are looking forward to the next 12 months and have set some goals that will help make you a better person. Now onto the meat of this month’s column – Gimmicks. Think about the sports we all enjoy. They have lots and lots of gimmicks involved in them and really it is these attention-grabbers that make or break the sport. Look at team roping. The 85% payback ropings and the WSTR events are nothing more than a gimmick. This gimmick obviously works - ropers everywhere are taking to it like ducks to a pond. I also believe these events are good for ropers. Who would not like to win more? But, overall it is just a marketing device that gets you to attend the event and if you look at the overall picture it probably lacks in areas where other events shine. I bet in a few short years, the gimmicks that we are all enjoying will not be as intriguing as they are now and maybe even buried. Look back at the original Booger Barter truck giveaway events. That may have been the biggest gimmick in the team roping arena of all time. Now, I don’t want to kick any dirt on Mr. Booger Barter, and really applaud him for his circus-style approach to team roping. What he did was market or gimmick up the sport to

fill his pocket which he did for many years, and ropers allowed it because they liked the gimmick. Try to give away a truck and a pile of prizes now without any large cash payouts or the magical 85% payout attached to it, and you will be laughed out of town – broke! The USTRC really does not have any true gimmicks so to speak. What you see is what you get. Ropers know what they are up against when they attend a USTRC Sanctioned event. The unmatched quality of the production, the solid reputation of their payout, the best in prize lines, the fairness of the association and the solid foundation of the USTRC is what makes their events theirs. Maybe that is their gimmick. Again, I believe and have always believed that ropers, much like everyone in this world, will gravitate towards the new and better deals when they come around. The one with the biggest and best gimmick will always gain the ground. The real trick is to keep your customers happy when a new game rolls into town. In any case, the customer usually gets what they want out of the deal. I, for one, am looking forward to the New Year. There are already some new gimmicks that are hitting the arena floor and I think it will be an interesting year for team roping. Again, I wish you all a great and happy New Year and remember; Dirt, keep it under you feet! Ryan Davis

Remember membership and eligibility forms must be postmarked 10 days prior to the rodeo you are entering to be eligible to compete. Entry forms must also be postmarked 10 days prior to the rodeo you are entering to avoid late fees.

April 30-May 1 - Clovis Outdoor Arena, NM May 7-8 - Gallup, NM May 14-15 - Roswell, NM

Special Notes If you have not picked up your Dodge Raffle Tickets, please pick them up this spring.

Goat Tyers! The executive board has agreed that for all NMHSRA rodeos the goats will be pretied, as per rulebook; however they will be tied by contractor. Also at the 2010 fall meeting the Board of Directors voted to change the goats out after every 3rd run on each goat as opposed to every 5th run during each rodeo. As a reminder: Any contestant who feels they have been fouled during their goat run by faulty NMHSRA equipment must declare themselves before

It will begin with the 6 & under. We will award 1st to 6th place girls and then 1st to 6th place boys. We will then call contestants up to pick from the awards table starting with highest point total with no regard to gender until all contestants have been called up. When finished with each age group we will move to the next group and continue until all awards have been presented. We anticipate having a professional photographer at the awards to get some great pictures of the winners!

Special Note: Please note that in order to have the points done in time for the awards presentation on January 9th payback will be a secondary priority that day. We will do our best to have checks available at the awards banquet, but no guarantee. No checks will be available during the rodeo that day to allow our secretaries to focus on the points. If we are unable to get all the checks completed in time for the ceremony, they will be mailed the following week. All Checks from Saturday will be available.

Family Help Family names will be drawn at every rodeo to help. If your family name is drawn and you are not able to help, you must find someone to work in your place. Not helping will result in a $50 fine. Fine must be paid before competing or any awards received. If you have been selected for family help at one of the rodeos, please check in with the event director to get credit for helping and to find out what you need to do.

All-Around Prizes First Place - Cowboy Classic trophy roping saddles will be awarded to the High-Point boy and girl in each age group. 2nd - 6th Place - Second through sixth place in the All-Around for both boy and girl in each age group will receive great custom prizes. All-Others - Every contestant who has paid their awards fee and participated in at least 5 rodeos will be able to pick the prize they want from an age group specific table. These prizes will include buckles (we will have 40 available), saddle pads, rope bags, breast collars, Dutton bits or spurs and possibly more. You will be impressed! In addition, don’t forget your subscription to the All Around Magazine that will keep you up to date on all of the states rodeo information throughout the year!

Cervi Celebrates Third World Title, Moody Wins Average Title By Ted Harbin The look on Jill Moody’s face was pure shock. In fact, she didn’t believe the report that she and Dolly had broken the 25-year-old barrel racing average record with their fantastic run at the Thomas & Mack Arena over the last 10 nights. But when she saw the figures, she was definitely pleased. “It would’ve been an honor to have that arena record, but I’ll definitely take this,” said Moody of Letcher, S.D., who rode TR Dashing Badger around the cloverleaf pattern 10 times in 138.26 seconds to win the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. “She is the picture of consistency, I’d say.” Sherry Cervi of Marana, Ariz., clinched the world championship Friday night, but she and Moody were in a tight race for the average title heading into the final go-round on Saturday night. In fact, Moody had just two-hundredths of a second lead over Cervi through nine rounds. But Cervi - who won $120,000 at the NFR and finished the season with $299,893 — knocked over the third barrel in Round 10 to help catapult Moody to the NFR title. “I was kind of pouting, because I was second and second and second,” she said, referring to her four round runner-up performances. “We pulled it off in the end.” Charmayne James’ mark of 138.93 was set in 1986, so it was a nice twist for Moody, a two-time average champion, to surpass it.

“In 2008, I won the average here and the reserve world champion title,” said Moody, who credits the run to Dolly, a 10year-old gray mare out of Easy Cash Bar by Mr. Illuminator. “Then last year, Dolly got sick and took the year off. To come back a year later after such a significant illness and win the average means a lot.” Angie Meadors of Blanchard, Okla., and two-time world champion Brittany Pozzi of Victoria, Texas, split the final round victory with 13.67s. It was Pozzi’s fifth paycheck at this year’s NFR but her first victory; Meadors’ three paychecks all came from round wins.

RodeoHouston Announces International Invitational Championship Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo™ officials have announced that the 2011 RodeoHouston BP Super Series will be an international championship, inviting only the top cowboys and cowgirls in the sport of rodeo, competing for a purse of more than $1.5 million. The entire $1,555,366 purse will be provided by RodeoHouston, with no entry fees required from the contestants. Additionally, each contestant has the ability to earn at least $500 in bonus money by appearing at autograph sessions. Total cash commitment for RodeoHouston BP Super Series contestants exceeds $1.7 million. The RodeoHouston BP Super Series will feature invited championship contestants in bareback riding, bull riding, saddle bronc riding, steer wrestling, tiedown roping, team roping and women’s barrel racing. As in previous years, the 19-performance RodeoHouston BP Super Series will feature five series of three rounds each with eight contestants per event – except for women’s barrel racing which will have 10 contestants; two Semifinal Rounds with 10 contestants per each event; one Wild Card Round with 12 contestants per each event; and a Championship Round featuring 10 contestants per each event. This format will result in 40 contestants per event, except for women’s barrel racing, which will have 50 contestants. Show officials emphasize that the 2011 RodeoHouston BP Super Series presentation will remain similar to the event presented in Reliant Stadium the previous four years, with the exception of fewer total contestants, an increased purse, new contestant selection criteria and minor ground rule changes in three events. Selection criteria for invitation to the 2011 RodeoHouston BP Super Series for all events, except women’s barrel racing, include: • Past RodeoHouston BP Super Series Champions (2007-2010) • Reigning Canadian Professional Rodeo Association Champions • Top five in the 2011 published world standings (as of Dec. 1, 2010) • Remaining invitations will come from the published 2010 world standings. • Alternate entries will be accepted after the closing of the invited entries. Entered alternates will be used to fill positions of invited contestants who do not complete the entry process. In addition to the above criteria, bull riding invitations will include the reigning PBR Champion and the Reigning CBR Champion. Team roping invitations will

include the reigning USTRC Champion(s). Selection criteria for women’s barrel racing will be as published by the WPRA. For all events other than women’s barrel racing, a listing of invited contestants has been posted at rodeohouston.com. The 2011 Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo runs March 1 through March 20. The Show is a Section 501(c)(3) charity dedicated to benefiting youth, supporting education, and facilitating better agricultural practices through exhibitions and presentation.

District NM01 New Mexico NBHA District NM01 includes the large geographic areas of San Juan county in Northwestern New Mexico. We will be hosting the Leo Mitchell Memorial Scholarship race and The Wild West Days in Grants, saddles given in the Open class and buckles in the youth. NBHA 1 will also have a Labor Day Barrel Bash in Grants. Members are required to attend 6 of the district races in order to qualify for finals. District NM01 finals are held in March each year. In 2007 we will award $40,000 in awards and added monies. Each member is asked to obtain a $50 sponsorship which enables us to provide great awards and added money at finals. 100% of the profits at each race go toward year-end awards. The Southwest Barrel Races and The Cibola County Barrel Racers as well as The Grants Rodeo Assn and The Leo Mitchell Family host races and give 100% profit back to the district. We have a strong working membership of 130. The members in District 1 are always willing to help; these races are put on by barrel racers for barrel racers. These races are not possible without the strong membership. We hold 18-20 races per year with up to 175 contestants at some races. For all 11:30am races, the draw will occur at 12:15pm with a $5 late charge for entering after the draw. Entry fees are $38 (open) and $28 (youth). Some larger races are pre entry and books close early. A Bulletin board with District information is posted at each race. Please give Rick Hurford owner of Corrosion Maintenance from Bloomfield a huge thank you as for the second year in a row he gave us a $5000 sponsorship to NBHA NM1 for our awards. We will use this money to purchase 4 saddles for the youth and added money in the finals next March. Remember that everyone’s sponsorship of $50 is due by July 1, after that it goes up $10 per month. I’ll be ordering prizes in July and August before school starts so if you have ideas on what you would like to see please let me know, all and any help is appreciated. Also please spread this information to other members who are not on the internet.

Located in one of the most secluded and lush areas in Tucson, this ranch estate has been in the same family for more than 30 years and has just now become available. Professionally landscaped grounds surround the home with mature trees, rose gardens, extensive lighting, automatic irrigation and fruit orchards. Proximity to shopping conveniences but extreme seclusion makes this home a unique opportunity. There are endless horse trails to be explored but one doesn’t have to leave the house to watch the deer, javelina, hawks, owls, quail, fox and bobcats as this ranch provides water and refuge for these and many other native animals.

Family to be pooper-scoopers, do you? Q. Much was made of the fact that you came from Ted Kennedy. A. I didn’t actually come from Ted, he gave me as a gift. Even though I’m a Portuguese Water Dog I don’t know how to swim, and I think you’ll agree, that wouldn’t have been wise to live with Ted without knowing how to swim. Q. Wasn’t your name really Charlie and didn’t you actually come from Texas before you came to the White House? And weren’t you rejected by the first family you went to live with because you were meant to be a companion dog for an older female but you kept trying to suckle her? A. Hey, I was a youngster. And even though I’m a PORTUGUESE Water Dog, yes I was born in the USA. And I can prove it. Let’s see, I have my papers here somewhere. www.LeePittsbooks.com

January, 2011 Philip I was flagging a roping over the weekend and an interesting situation arose. Some of the steers in the roping had their horns cased and reinforced with rebar. A header had roped a steer around the horns and when I first looked I saw that the hondo of his rope (looked like it), was over the horn. I flagged him out for an illegal head catch. When he arrived at the end of the arena, to the stripping chute, it turned out that there was a significant space between the horns and the rebar. The rope was cleanly around the horns, but the hondo, was over the rebar. I didn’t know what the rules were as far as; what was horn and what was rebar, and if there was an exception to any rule that existed. I awarded another run to the team. I thought this was only fair because I couldn’t make the judgment. My question is, what is the right call in that situation? Is it similar to football, where a player’s long hair is considered part of the uniform? Should his rope have been around the horns and the rebar? There was at least a two-inch gap. Mark Morales Mark As far as I know there is not a rule that pertains to this exact situation. So this is where ‘good judgment’ comes in. If the rope was slick around the horns, then it was legal, even though the hondo is on the rebar. You said there was at least a two-inch gap between the horns and the rebar. I take it that the rebar was not exactly shaped with the steer’s horns. That is the reason the hondo was between the rebar and the horns. These steers probably had the rebar on them to reinforce their horns or they were old single steer roping cattle. The only thing that I believe should have been done differently; you should have dropped the flag where the team would have received a time. Then it would have been recorded on the books. Upon inspection, you could have let the time stand or flagged them out. I’m assuming, there was not a time recorded, so you had no choice but to give them a rerun. Thank you for your integrity and your question. I believe in One Nation under God Philip Murrah Pauls Valley, Oklahoma Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Thanks for the question.

Secretariat

recently saw the movie “Secretariat” about the horse many people believe to be the best Thoroughbred race horse ever. Secretariat, born in Virginia in 1970, grew to 16.2 hands and weighed 1,200 pounds at maturity. His official color was chestnut, but he was called Big Red by those close to him. This is a Disney movie, and a story about love. Everyone loved that horse. What made him unique was he loved them back. When the crowd roared, he pranced. I remember, especially, watching the Belmont Stakes on television. He preened for the raucous crowd, and then won by such a large margin (31 lengths) the cameras had trouble including the also-ran horses in the photo. He’s the only horse to adorn the covers of “Time,” “Newsweek,” and “Sports Illustrated.” That hadn’t happened before, and it hasn’t happened since. Current notable descendants include A.P. Indy, Gone West, Storm Cat, Elusive Quality, Smarty Jones. Readers involved in racing will recognize these names. For me, it’s a story about female perseverance. I remember when women had to dress up — heels, hose the whole thing — to appear at the track on race day, especially if they were wives of owners, trainers or, God forbid, actual owners themselves. Penny Chenery went along with that, as the old photos show. She didn’t, however, go along with the “give it up” advice she got from most everyone. They didn’t realize her father had taught her so much. She found Lucien Laurin, trainer, and Ron Turcotte, rider, Eddie

Sweat, super groom and they were, as they say, off to the races. Yes, the movie has “some omissions, some contrivances,” Chenery (now in her 88th year) said in an interview with Bill Christine for the November 15, 2010 “Daily Racing Form.” She added, however, “…by and large I think it’s a wonderful picture. Working with the Disney people was a complete pleasure… I realized going in that this was Hollywood, and to keep a movie going, you have to disturb the facts and enhance things here and there. So the things in the film that didn’t really happen don’t bother me at all.” Chenery’s father had made a deal with the late Ogden Phipps in which Phipps’ stallion, Bold Ruler, would be bred to a set of mares. The choice of which offspring went to who was decided with a coin toss. Chenery lost, but she had studied the pedigrees and wanted the foal delivered by the mare Somethingroyal, not chosen by Phipps. Her father had taught her that the mare’s genes are every bit as important as the stallion’s. Indeed. When Secretariat died in 1989, the autopsy showed his heart was about twice as large as that of a regular horse. Later study proved the gene that controls heart size is passed on by the mare. Is that cool or what? My favorite line in the movie, true or not, is when the owner of race horse Sham made an uncomplimentary comment about housewives owning race horses. Chenery said she had made a multi-million dollar gamble, adding, “That’s what we housewives do.”
