Horse Lover Magazine

The organizer of the event, Rufus McPeak (Dresden, TN) stated that he is proud of the fact that so many good riders and their family members came to participate and enjoy the event. 

Horse Lover staff was there for the $10,000 Novice class which is a class for trainers.  Trainer Zeke Entz of Collierville, Tennessee, won the class with a score of 75.  Entz  was aboard another owner’s horse, Rebecca Rey a six-year- old mare out of Dual Rey.   Entz also rode his own horse in the class. When asked how he could be objective riding for another owner, Entz stated that many times winning depends on the "gods of luck."  He added that you just do your best and "it all shakes out." 

Entz explained that the winning score in cutting is the highest score. He further explained the judges’ score sheet and how the points are earned for run content such as courage, degree of difficulty, and time worked, among several others.
