Watch the Extreme Mustang Smackdown LIVE!
Web Streaming begins at 7 p.m. May 25
Spice up your Memorial Day Weekend by watching the Extreme Mustang Smackdown Live! May 25 at 7 p.m., during the Texas Classic, one of the nation's largest horse shows. The Smackdown pits five American Mustangs against some veteran domestically raised show horses for a $5,000 winner-take-all purse.
Web streaming will be available at three web sites, including extrememustangmakeover.com, texas-classic.com and mustangheritagefoundation.org.
The event will be held at the Will Rogers Memorial Center in Fort Worth, Texas, May 25. This is no admission fee.
The five American Mustangs are all products of the recent Extreme Mustang Makeover sensation. Scheduled to appear is 2007 Extreme Mustang Makeover Champion Max, owned and trained by NCHA Hall of Famer Guy Woods, and now under the guidance of Australian Grant Barron, who was 14th in NCHA world standings in 2006. From Cooyar, Queensland, Barron is pumped about the event.
One new fan of the Mustang is USET Gold Medalist and World Champion trainer Pete Kyle of Whitesboro, Texas, who will be competing in the Smackdown with American Quarter Horse Chexy Dr Pepper, winner of more than $70,000 in NRHA competition and former year-end high-point reining horse in AQHA competition. Kyle also judged preliminary rounds in the 2007 Extreme Mustang Makeover.
Also competing with Mustangs will be Waggoner Ranch manager Weldon Hawley of Vernon, Texas, owner and rider of Winnemucca; AQHA World Champion trainer Abel Garcia of Sequin, Texas, riding Larry, owned by Randy and Marsha Olson of Kerrville, Texas; Bill Lopez of Norman, Oklahoma, riding Vegas, owned by Dr. Mark and Jamie Balensiefen of Bethany, Oklahoma; and Fort Worth's own J.W. Weisiger riding Country Deacon owned by Steve and Julie Bryant of Aledo.
Rounding out of the field of domestic horses are Kinzy Donnelly riding Hollywood All Star, winner of more than $20,000 in NRHA competition and owned by Jordan Donnelly of Aubrey, Texas, as well as trainers Trevor Dare and Rusty Green, also of Whitesboro, and Chele Murrel of Elm Grove, Louisiana.
