142.5 for Accustomed To Shine
Introducing Accustomed To Shine, Sue Painter’s awesome reining mare by Custom Crome. Having had a long period off as a brood mare, we are delighted to have been given the opportunity to show her and are very excited about what she has achieved so far!
In just a few outings she has carded some spectacular scores resulting in a several wins at the British Reining Spring and East Coast Circuit Spring shows. The score to beat? 142.5!
What a Year for Baileys!
Smart Rebel Girl (Baileys) has been awarded some of the highest accolades possible from the AQHA. We already reported on her Register of Merit but to add to this she has scooped the 2013 International High Point Performance plaque for the UK affiliate, the 2013 AQHA Senior Reining High Point award and the AQHA UK Reining All Ages High Point.
The 2005 mare (Smart Starbuck X Country Rebel Girl) was started and trained by Michael here in the UK.
