Tina and her equine partner " Rain or Sunshine" want to wish all our friends Happy Holidays. We look forward to a healthy, prosperous 2012 and many exciting runs. Tina and Rain have 9 Baker points and need one more point to be qualified for the Baker finals in August. Quail Run Reining Horses ,LLC. will be presenting a new Perpetual Trophy for High Point Opposite Award at the Baker Finals. The trophy is a beautiful bronze executed by Mel Lawson called "Setting the Standard" that Quail Run is proud to have been able to have acquire. High Point Opposite means that if a senior rider wins the Baker open, then this trophy goes to the highest scoring junior rider. If the highest scoring rider in the open is a junior, then the highest scoring senior rider receives the trophy.

A new video of Cee N Big Chex trained and ridden  by Diane Wickenheiser  is on You Tube. You may access the video by friending  Tina Klarin on Facebook and I will send you the link. Thanks to Pat and Diane for allowing Darcie to become the great horse she is.  Thanks to Bette Simpson for the picture of Pat and Darcie at the Cactus Classic shown above.
