Inaugural Heritage Futurity at Great Southwest Equestrian Center Surpasses Expectations!
As hosts of the first-ever Heritage Futurity and Show, Great Southwest Equestrian center combined a facility full of opportunity with significant added money and expertise from Reining veterans to create a Reining event that was enjoyed by many. The inaugural show boasted approximately 400 stalls sold, 80 entries in the open futurity, and excellent participation in both the non pro futurity and ancillary classes. Thank you to the Great Southwest Equestrian Center for adding this great show to our fall futurity lineup!
McQuay Stables Heritage Futurity and Show Results:
The McQuay Stables team earned great success at the Heritage Futurity! Many thanks to our owners for sending their horses, our sponsors for keeping us going up and down the road, and Great Southwest Equestrian Center for hosting a great show! We look forward to attending this show year after year!
Lyle Lovett earned titles at the show on both of his geldings, SNS Uvalde King (by Smart and Shiney) and Two Gun Shiner (by Gunner). To sweeten the pot, both geldings were raised by Lyle! Lyle was Champion in the Non Pro, Intermediate Non Pro, Limited Non Pro, and AQHA Amateur Classes aboard SNS Uvalde King, also placing third in the Novice Horse Non Pro Level 1. Riding Two Gun Shiner, Lyle was Reserve Champion in the Novice Horse Non Pro Level 2. Congratulations, Lyle!
Jerry Kimmel had a great trip to the Heritage Futurity, with two of his horses tying to win the Novice Horse Open class! Tim and My Daddy Is Dually (by Mister Nicadual and raised by Jerry) tied with Trey Pool and Gun Gotta Star (by Dun Gotta Gun and raised by Jerry) were co-champions!
Sam Schaffhauser & Gotta Be A Gunner (by Gunner and out of Katies Chic Olena) earned 8th place in the tough L3 Open Futurity with a score of 145.5, earning roughly $800 for owner, Jerry Hunsucker. "Frankie" was also raised by Jerry Hunsucker and his wife, Kay.

 Sam Schaffhauser and Joe Johnson's JJS Custom Surprise (Custom Legend x Jeraldines Surprise) also qualified for the finals at the SWRHA Futurity in the L3. While getting rejuvenated for the finals, Hannah took "Legend" on walks in the beautiful Ardmore sunshine.
