Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#125 JD McGuire and Hunter Koch
Q: How do you balance that throughout your weeks and your months getting ready and preparing for that?
Koch gradually advances horses from dummy work to steers and more aggressive competition, then returns to fundamentals and eases off when a horse shows anxiety or needs more confidence.
#125 JD McGuire and Hunter Koch
Q: If somebody handed you $250,000 today and said, build me a competitive Futurity string of horses, how would you spend it and what would you do?
McGuire would look for the best two-year-olds he could find, then place them with the right trainers and give them enough time to develop before competition.
#123 Billie Jack Saebens, Trey Yates and Rhen Richard
Q: What was it like this year? You had a few different partners, but get another NFR qualification on the belt.
Yates describes a season with several partners and a carefully planned rodeo route. After his grandfather died, he chose to keep competing, and he credits support from Riley Kittle, friends and family with helping them execute their plan and qualify.
#123 Billie Jack Saebens, Trey Yates and Rhen Richard
Q: Can you explain how the payouts work, because I really don't know exactly how with the stallion side pots and everything?
Saebens explains that entries require a horse sired by a Solo Select stallion or a breeding contract. Horses by participating stallions with a breeding contract are eligible for all the money, while other horses with a contract can win 40%.
#124 Jaydon Warner, Kavis Drake, Denim Ross and Shane Hanchey
Q: What do you think has contributed to making 17 consecutive NFRs?
Hanchey credits horsepower and his ability to keep outside pressures from affecting him in the arena, while also avoiding extreme highs and lows.
