Cow horse competition is keen at SCRCHA July Jubilee event

From Horsetrader staff reports

TEMECULA—Mike Berg rode Going For Dough to the high score of the weekend, and Roy Rich kept his hot pace going aboard Soula Shining Star in a pair of Bridle highlights at the Southern California Reined Cow Horse Association’s July Jubilee held July 12-14 at Green Oaks Ranch.

Berg’s 145.5 mark Sunday on Going For Dough, owned by Rudolpf and Irene Petris, was tops and took both the Sunday NRCHA Open Bridle and the AQHA Senior Working Cow Horse classes. Rich, who took Rocking J Ranch’s Soula Shining Star to a 145 on Saturday, took the same two titles that day.

Also on Saturday, Sunni McCormick rode Greg Bieker’s Onetime Hollywood to a 144 that captured the NRCHA Limited Open Bridle competition. McCormick’s pupil, Addison Coutts, had a terrific showing in AQHA Youth Working Cow Horse, winning the class with a 141.5 on Sioux Per Boom, owned by McCormick.

In Non Pro cow horse action, Jessica Saenz scored a 140 on her Blingblingboom to win Saturday’s Non Pro Bridle class, with the Sunday title going to Catherine Deel on her Patty Naskiia with a 136.5. Deel also took both days’ wins in the NRCHA Intermediate Non Pro Bridle with a 138.

Heather Vatcher enjoyed another successful SCRCHA show, winning three Saturday titles in NRCHA Non Pro Limited 5K, NRCHA Non Pro Limited 1K and the AQHA Amateur Boxing—all aboard her Sippin Boons Farm. Amy Finley took both the Non Pro Limited 5K and 1K classes on Sunday on her Truckin Lil Miracle.

The SCRCHA Select Non Pro Limited winners were Susan Carter on her Von Halo Nic (Saturday) and Lauren Boychuk on her Ima Miss N Texas (Sunday). Boychuk and Ima Miss N Texas also won both days’ NRCHA Non Pro Limited classes as well as Sunday’s AQHA Boxing competition.

The next SCRCHA event will be the club’s September Classic and Year-end Awards Sept. 20-22 at Green Acres Ranch.
