POINTS: 16.5

DIVISION: Sport

HORSE: (Silver) - LF Hancock Silverboy

This is Amanda's 2nd year skijoring.  She and her buckskin gelding, Silver started off strong last year in the sport divison.  She placed 2nd pulling Colin Cook and 4th pulling Conner Buckley at the Duckworth Montana Classic in Bozeman, Montana which featured a straight track design. In Whitefish she placed 4th with Colin Cook.  Whitefish featured one day of straight track and one day of round track.  

Silver is an all around horse that she has competed in numerous things with.  From o-mok-sees, barrel racing, horse shows, judged trial rides to competitive trail rides, Silver does it all.  Silver has also packed out elk and deer, drug out elk and deer, been used as a special Olympics horse as a 5yo, pulled kids/adults on a calf sled, and has ponied and helped trail many young colts. He is the kind of horse that Amanda can trust to throw an inexperenced rider on or any kind of child. He is fairly fast in an arena, but get him out on a wide open stretch and he kicks it up quite a few more gears!
