Chief not only went all 5 days, but looked like he could have done a few
more days after the ride ended on Friday.  We had several gaited horses
at the ride...Beth (Rogers?) and Andy Brinkley rode Monday thru Wednesday
..Beth on a Saddlebred and Andy on a TWH, and Suzanne Monsivais (a
junior) went 4 1/2 days on her Andalusian mare, and Ray and Scott Sanson
went all five days on their Colorado Rangerbreds that I understand are
gaited...Jim Barnett went all five days on his 1/2 Trakener (sic), and,
although not gaited, John Parke rode Remington the Icelandic Pony all
five days and Kris Olko rode her Thorobred all five days.  We had a true
mix of horses this year, and they were all good.
