We have a little dog/puppy here. He may be a neighborhood dog. If he belongs to you please come get him. If no one shows we will call the dog catcher.

Jared Leclair and Sparkling Magnum scored a 73 to win the Novice Horse Open Level 1, Co-Champion the Level 3 and 2, and Co-Champion the Level 3, 2, and 1 High Point at the SWRHA Futurity and Show.

Sparkling Magnum is by Magnum Chic Dream out of Electric Sparkle. The 6-year-old mare is owned by Lisa Mauzerall. “She’s a really cool mare and she’s really fun to show,” said Leclair. He has won $5,000 on her just this week.

“She was good for me. She showed well today,” Leclair noted.

Jared thanks his assistant Gloria Spiaggi, for all the work she has put into Sparkling Magnum. “Gloria has done all the hard work on that mare, I just get the pleasure of showing her,” noted Leclair

Clemerson Barbalho and Babys Night Light score a 72 to claim the Co-Championship of the first slate of the Novice Horse Open [1] at the SWRHA Futurity and Show. Babys Night Light is owned by Heather Ruthven.

This pair has been together for five years, and they make quite the team. Barbalho started Babys Night Light, by Spooks Gotta Whiz out of Shiney Night Light, as a 2-year-old and has shown the mare on and off since then. They are preparing for the AQHA World Show in Oklahoma City.

“She’s a big stopper, and she always tries so hard for me,” stated Barbalho. They will show again in the second slate of the Novice Horse and school the rest of the week.

“I want to thank God. He’s always blessed me,” Barbalho said.

Cady Shaw and the 3-year-old mare Dreamin Whiz Me, sired by Electric Snow out of Dream Whiz Me, tied for the win in the Rancho Los Palominos Masters Non Pro, earning $1,000.

“She’s been lots of fun,” Shaw, who raised Dreamin Whiz Me stated. She added that the mare is third generation in a line of show horses she has bred and shown.

“For her first time one-handed in the bridle, I was pretty happy. She’s been a good girl this year,” Shaw said. Making the mare even more special is that her dam, Dream Whiz Me, recently passed.

“I really appreciate the sponsorship of Rancho Los Palominos. These events wouldn’t happen without our sponsors,” Shaw said.

The first class of the 2024 Southwest Reining Horse Association Futurity & Horse Show on Friday, Oct. 18 is still two days away, but when entries for the Rancho Los Palominos Non Pro Futurity closed at noon on Wednesday, the news was exciting.

That’s because there are 66 entries in the Futurity – an increase of 17 from last year.

“It’s exciting to see the entry numbers in the Rancho Los Palominos Non Pro Futurity grow by over 30 percent this year,” said Cheryl Cody of the SWRHA Futurity Management Team, adding that late entries will still be taken up until 6 p.m. Thursday.

In 2023, Gina Maria Schumacher piloted Reining Royalty (Spooks Gotta Whiz x Bella Della) to the Level 4 Non Pro Championship, earning $8,151. Kelsey Price, who tied for Reserve in the Level 4 and won Levels 3 and 2, earned $11,224 on Bringing Chexy Back (A Sparkling Vintage x Chexanicki). Lindsay Kovick and Shesinmypocket (In Like Flinn x A Smart Gun) won the Level 1, finished second in Levels 2 and 3, and placed in the L4 for more than $8,000 in earnings, and David Silva and Working On A Shiner (Smart And Shiney x Reminic At Work) took the Prime Time Non Pro title and placed in other levels to pocket just over $3,000.

There’s more than just big money on the line. The SWRHA Futurity is known for great prizes, including those for stallion owners!

“Most of the added money for the SWRHA Futurity comes from the proceeds of the annual Stallion Service Auction. A custom SWRHA golf cart goes to the sire of the highest-placing Level 4 Non Pro if that stallion was part of the auction with a sold breeding,” explained Lindsey McCutcheon, who spearheads the auction each year. “Our stallion owners give so much each year, and we appreciate their support of the SWRHA.”

The Rancho Los Palominos Non Pro Futurity, which features $66,000 in added money, is the official start of an exciting week at the Hardy Murphy Coliseum in Ardmore, Oklahoma. The SWRHA Futurity & Horse Show is annually one of the top events of the National Reining Horse Association, and is considered one of the last chances to test the mettle of 3-year-old reiners before they compete at the NRHA Futurity just a month later.

Along with the Futurity, the event also features two full slates of NRHA-approved classes.
