RESULTS
Congratulations to Dale Clearwater – winner of 2013 Trainer Challenge for second time. A full house at the Ag Centre watched as Dale managed to secure his Champion title for year two of the Trainer Challenge. This was the first of this type of competition for the other two trainers and they both had a great finishing round.
Canada’s Ultimate Cowhorse Event was a huge success, after some recalculating the placings were as follows:
1st place – John Swales from Millarville, AB payout of $6000
2nd place – Brad Pedersen from Lacombe, AB payout of $3000
3rd place – Suzon Schaal from Calgary, AB payout of $2050
4th place – Rod Thiessen from Estevan, SK payout of $1650
Apologies from the organizing committee as the totals were recalculated designating John Swales the Champion. Thank you to all the entries for their understanding and especially to Brad Pedersen and John Swales for the gentlemen they are.
