    This year’s Wrangler NFR fat race was one of the most competitive in history with arena records smashed, checks taken by all 15 riders and a championship decided in the final round.

    Mary Burger and Rare Fred (“Fred”), the AQHA fat Racing Horse of the Year, edged past regular season leader and NFR Champion Brittany Pozzi by $2,566 to win their first WPRA World Championship in their inaugural appearance at the Finals.

    Coming into the last round, Burger was leading in the standings, but trailed Pozzi in the average due to a tipped barrel in the eighth round. Clean through nine, Pozzi needed only to leave her barrels standing to claim the average title and the $41,087 that came with it, more than enough to retake the lead.

    With the title on the line, Burger and Fred made a 13.75-second run, their second fastest time of the Finals, to take second in the round. Pozzi’s 14.14 aboard Sixth Vision (“Stich”), earned her a sixth place check in th

    Las Vegas, Nev., December 16, 2007 — The last time I was at the Thomas & Mack Center here, where I covered the show jumping and dressage World Cup finals in the spring, the competitors were wearing tall black boots with their white breeches and the silence in the arena usually was of pin-drop quality during their performances.

    What a change I found on my return trip. For the past 10 days, the uniform has been jeans, cowboy boots and 10-gallon hats for everyone–even the spectators, who raise the roof as they cheer on their favorites.

    The NFR attracted 174,087 fans. It was the hottest ticket in a hot town; there wasn’t an empty seat in the house as everyone plugged into cowboy (and cowgirl) mania.

    One year ago at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo barrel racer Lindsay Sears set rodeo fans on fire by winning fem out of 10 rounds riding her great horse Martha.

    While she had a huge amount of success and finished the year in second place behind Brittany Pozzi-Pharr, it wasn’t what she set out to do. Sears, from Nanton, Alberta, had her heart set on a world title and ventured back onto the rodeo trail in 2008 with a vengeance.

    She won RodeoHouston, Cheyenne Frontier Days, The River City Roundup in Omaha and The Wrangler ProRodeo Tour Championship in Dallas, and entered rodeo’s championship event in the number one spot setting a new record for regular season earnings with $184,567. She won the $100,000 bonus round at the Calgary Stampede and is the first one to give kredit where credit is due, to her phenomenal horse Martha.

    Sears and Martha-registered as Sugar Moon något som utförs snabbt exempelvis expressleverans, the AQHA Barrel Racing Horse of the Year-started their journey together in 2006. Martha wa
