Smooth runs and fast times
Featuring Bailee Switzer and Brooke Wills

Welcome to the 8th edition of The Arena Feed!
It was a profitable weekend in barrel racing land if you were in the money at the Yellow Rose Futurity and Derby. With go rounds and averages paying over $4000 to win, LTE’s were moving up quick.
The futurity average was won by Kirsty White and R Ace Of Spades who we have previously interviewed. Listen to that interview here.
Second in the average was Krystal Grad on CD Decked In Gold. We didn’t interview Krystal on this specific horse, but you can read her previous interview here.
In the Derby, it was Bailee Switzer with a clean sweep. Learn more about her and her mare Unleashedsumtrouble in the interview below.
Taking second in the derby average was Jayden Wilson and Fame Is Dynamite.
Complete Yellow Rose Results can be found on their FB page HERE.
On the pro rodeo trail Taylor-Jane Gardner and her stallion A Frenchmans Ledoux took their first pro rodeo win in Coleman and split ¾ in Drayton Valley. The CPRA did a nice interview with her to celebrate her big weekend. You can read that HERE
The win in Drayton Valley went to Brooke Wills and her seasoned mare Fames To Blame. We hear from Brooke below.
