Promises to Dash Promised and Delivered
By: Kay Roper

Clayton C. Bryant’s Triple Crown Winner Barrel Horse named, Promises to Dash, and nicknamed, “Squirrel,” won the State of Virginia Horse Show over the weekend in Herndon, VA at Frying Pan Park. He beat out over 130 horses, to win the 2006 State of Virginia Barrel Championship title. Squirrel was jockeyed by Adam Roper and the duo put over 4 tenths of a second on the field. The class was scheduled to pay back 8 places, but due to his time lead being so strong, it only paid 2 places, as he put all but one other horse in the 2nd Division. Congratulations to Clayton, Adam, and Squirrel for a great win.
