Youth, Amateur and Open Ranch Horse Western Pleasure
“New to the class slate in 2014 are Ranch Horse Pleasure Classes,” reported Kansas Paint Horse President. “This discipline is growing and Oklahoma is definitely ‘cowboy’ country.” These three classes appear on the Thursday and Sunday schedule, just prior to the reining classes.
New Show Sponsors
“We are delighted to announce the addition of Diamond 2M Show Horses, He’s Stylin, and Intensions to our Congress team this year,” stated Sponsor Chair Clea Bobbitt. “Diamond 2M and APHA and AQHA World and Reserve World Champions are synonymous. It’s an honor to have them on board.”
Located in Sanger, Texas, the ranch has established itself by focusing on breeding, training, showing and selling the finest APHA and AQHA halter horses in the industry. Diamond 2M is owned by accomplished amateur exhibitor Melinda Minnis and managed by head trainer, Kelley-Diegnan Stone. Kelley’s BS in Animal Science and a Masters of Agriculture lend a great deal of expertise to the day to day operation.
Offered at Diamond 2M, among others, are two elite stallions: Hes Stylin and Intensions. Hes Stylin, an own son of Kids Classic Style, is owned by Melinda and is an APHA World Champion and APHA World Champion sire. APHA/AQHA Intensions, a 2010 model by My Intentions, is owned by Mark & Patty Voegele and is a multiple World Champion.
