 |
 |
Three weeks, 12 champions, $2 million. That sums up the National Cutting Horse Association’s 2010 Summer Cutting Spectacular, presented by Great American Insurance. The show took place July 11-31 at Will Rogers Memorial Center.
The Summer Cutting Spectacular includes a derby for 4-year-old horses and a classic challenge for 5- and 6-year-olds. This was the final leg of the Triple Crown of Cutting, which began with the 2009 Futurity in December.
Eight of the 12 champions scored a 220 or better . Last year’s derby champions Third Cutting and Boyd Rice, Spearman, Texas, had the top score overall with a 230 point win in the classic open.
Despite a power outage causing a two hour delay-of-game after the first set of Non-Pro finals, Phil Hanson, Weatherford, Texas, shined at the open finals. Taking the championship with a 227 point run with LHR Smooth Jamie May and tying for reserve on Pounce, Hanson took home more than $85,000.
