victory in the Junior Three-Gaited class. "Rudy"
is owned by Betsy Thomas. Not to be outdone by
the veterans, The Rock Star, debuted to an impressive

Hall, LLC (aka Dirk and Anthony), very proud.
The pleasure division maked the debut performance
of new team, CH Just Special and Carol Hillenbrand.
"Justin" and Carol scored a unanimous
