One of the top AQHA shows of the season, The Mississippi State University (MSU) Bulldog Classic was held March 10-13, 2016 at the Mississippi Horse Park in Starkville, Mississippi. This annual Quarter Horse show is always popular and usually sells out. It is a good value because the cost is a flat fee per horse and includes entries, stalls, and drug fees. The facility is first rate with excellent footing, heated indoor arena, a covered and an open warm up arena, easy parking for big and small rigs with RV hook ups, and an ample number of stalls and spectator seating with handicapped access. The lighting is bright and the place is clean.
The judges this year were Elizabeth Baker, Larry Hansch, Jennifer Leckey and Tracy Wills. Bricklee Miller, the show manager, said that entries came from all over the southeast – Tennessee, Alabama, Texas, Florida, as well as Mississippi.
The high point winners are:
All Around Open Horse- Im Talkin Big, Pamela J Hall, Tyler, TX
All Around Novice Amateur- Gotta Wear My Silks, Mindi Meadows Posey, Rainsville, AL
All Around Amateur- Cadillac In Black, Jamie Radebaugh Devoe, Rowlett, TX
All Around Select Amateur- Won Lopin RV Machine, Vickie Kent, Graceville, FL
All Around Novice Youth- Mist My Invitation, Maddie Passmore, Melissa, TX
All Around Youth- They Call Me Jake, Kamiah McGrath, Murfreesboro, TN
High Point English Horse- Only A Natural, Rachel Trebesh, Navarre, FL
High Point Western Horse- Im Talkin Big, Pamela J Hall, Tyler, TX
