Laina Banks, who competed at the show last year, raved about the show format. “It’s so much fun to be at a show with a full slate of Quarter Horse classes that combine Cattle, Reining, and Ranch Horse classes with top level rail exhibitors in the climate controlled South Point Arena, Casino, and Hotel.”
