“Dewey [Smith] is a master at keeping the horses in a routine and a very consistent environment. They seem to blossom wherever they are and continue to go forward.”

This is Wallinger-Rowan’s first World Championship title and the first World Champion foal by her family’s stallion, Acoolest Touchdown.

Booth and Honey have been a team for the past seven years now. She currently relies on the guidance of Chuck Briggs for training, maintaining, and campaigning her beloved gelding.

“The horse is so solid in every way. He’s healthy and easy to show. He’s so good-minded. That’s the best gelding I’ve ever had.”

UPDATE: Josh Weakly just won his fifth title of the AQHA World Show claiming a World Championship with Giancarla in the Amateur 2-Year-Old Mares.

“I ride them every day at home, and that makes the difference because I know them inside and out. I think that’s the key, really.”

“Chubbs” is a 12-year-old gelding that Beim purchased at an auction when she was just twelve years old.

Four generations of the Ryan family were present to witness her big win this afternoon with Allocate In Blue in the Amateur Hunter Under Saddle at the 2013 AQHA World Show.

“They have a lot of elegance, and I like that in a halter horse. I can take a little less bulk for extreme pretty.”

Two horse and rider pairs that are very familiar with the winner’s circle once again found themselves at the top of the class during evening festivities at the 2013 AQHA World Show.
