The barrel racing competition lasted all day, filled with friendly competition and happy laughter. But the fun didn't stop the anxiety that gnawed at each competitor's heart at least once before their run, reminding them all of what exactly was at stake. Even the fact that it was a low level competition couldn't appease their understandable pre-run panic -- but as it is with every true horseman and woman, the moment they tore off towards the first barrel, the butterflies were replaced with overwhelming trust in their faithful mounts.

Daemon and his rider were the first to run, and although Daemon's naughty side kicked in on the stretch before the finish, they really did very well. The quarter horse had done his best, and everyone could see that; no one could be prouder than his loving owner.

Wilbur was next, and despite the startled and delighted cries of the spectators who had never seen a Fjord barrel racing before (and were certain he'd never be able to make it through), that stallion dug his feet into the dirt and pulled a fantastic run, much to the surprise of those watching. Only a couple minutes after they had exited the arena, Vivian actually had someone come up to her and offer their car in exchange for Wilbur -- of course, she didn't even have to think about it before politely turning them down.

Ace looked like a fish out of water among all the other competitors, standing 17 hands with a distinctly thoroughbred skinniness. That didn't stop him, however, and though the turns proved to be the slightest bit tricky, he made up for it with his natural speed.

Pollux, though too young to actually run, was thoroughly drooled over by little kids who had always wanted a black stallion. His amiable nature lent itself well to all of their attention, and by the time they had to go, Delph had to practically peel three little cowgirls off of Pollux's legs. All of their attention coupled with the sights, sounds, and smells of the horse show did have a bit of an effect on him, however, and he earned +1 in training from the whole experience.

By the end of the day, the winners had been announced, and all congratulated each other with smiles and jokes. It had been a fun show -- no one could wait to do it again!

Congratulations to the following:
In first place, Ace of Hearts.
In second place, Winters Summit.
In third place, Daemon.

I'll be adding your prize money to your accounts shortly ^^
