From the 100X Reining Classic:
Prior to the start of the 100X Reining Classic, NRHA All Time Leading Rider Andrea Fappani was just $12,174.85 away from becoming the first $8 Million Rider.
With more than $3 million up for grabs during the 10 days of the 100x Reining Classic, he’d likely pass that milestone in the Sooner State.
Fappani, the consummate competitor, accomplished it during his first class. He piloted Vintage Chex (A Sparkling Vintage x Chex Out The Cowgirl) to a Reserve finish in the Open Futurity, and then took fourth on Hypnotyze (Spooks Gotta Whiz x Banjoes Shining Star), for total earnings of $34,009.
The owners and show staff of the 100x Reining Classic congratulate Andrea on this incredible accomplishment.
