Friday May 29th, We are on tonight! Wade is on the tractor and already got the first dump of water. TO 4:30pm - Office opens at 5pm - so if you get here early just get on and ride and pay me after. Enter by 6:30 to be in the first draw. Can enter until the last runner hits the alley way - starts at 7pm. This is only an open jackpot unless a bunch of kids show up and want to run a youth - if that happens they will run after the open due to people timing meds to the 7pm start time. If peewees want to come we can fit you in at the end as well. Next week starts the buckle series! Then it's all 3 divisions

Switching from wednesday to Friday 29th this week. Wade has the day off and I selfishly want to run too!

📋 THE “DON’T MAKE IT WEIRD” RULES
Updated 2026

🕔 Office opens at 5pm
If you get there early, ride first and pay after — don’t sweat it 😎

📍 Enter in the crow’s nest by 6:30pm or you go to the end of the draw.

📍 Entries stay open until the last open runner hits the alley.

🚫 NO trades after the draw
(Don’t ask 😅)

🚫 Run in your drawn spot
No switching horses/order.

🔁 Enter as many times as you want!
If something breaks, re-enter or holler for a rerun at the end of the draw.

❌ Knocked barrel = no time
(Except peewees = +5)

💥 Hit the timer = $100
(Please no 😬)

⏱ Timer fails = rerun option

⚠️ MEDs / DRAW REQUESTS

Jamie will try to help if you ask to be early…

But if all 25 of you ask, we’ve got a problem 😂

🚛 FAIRGROUNDS RULE

Clean trailers in the designated spot ONLY 🧹

👉 Don’t block it
👉 It’s free — let’s keep it that way 👍

🚫 ZERO TOLERANCE

Be good to your horses and be good to people. Period. 🐴❤️

All of our jackpots are now including UBRC side pots! 🤩🔥🐴

Great news for our youth riders!! 🎉 UBRC is actually for ages 18 & under, and they will take your OPEN time and roll it into their youth age group standings! 🙌🏽🏆

That means you can enter the youth through UBRC and start earning points toward their finals in Helena, MT each fall! 🌟🐎💨

Such a cool opportunity for our younger riders to gain experience, compete, and work toward finals all at the same time! 💜💙⭐

Be sure to enter on SaddleBook each week and start racking up those UBRC finals points!! 📲🔥🏁

Canceling Dillon Barrel race tonight. Sorry ladies - I am sick in bed. Ugh. We will try again next week.

Dillon MT jackpot cancelled!
It is howling here and not supposed to stop until 9pm. We are not having the jackpot. Not worth it. See ya next week!

5/6/2026 Wednesday Race #1 Results

Despite the drought-like conditions this winter and spring, I finally got the ground decent for our first water of the year! It took some fine tuning, but ol’ Leo thought it was JUST right! Huge shoutout to Emily Reynolds — way to go!

And how about Baby Suzie deciding she’s a 1D horse on only her 3rd or 4th ever run — and her first run in Montana! Proud of you, cowgirl!

Dang that downed barrel, Raegen! Hopefully we keep seeing you and Em battle it out all summer long!

We’ll be back again next Wednesday! If anyone needs to run earlier than 7 PM to make it to other activities, just let me know. I’m happy to get things ready and work you into an earlier time slot.

Also, please remember the office doesn’t open until 5 PM. Marie has graciously accepted the position, and we definitely don’t want to run her off already! 😂

If you need to jet out early after time onlies, you can either find me to pay or wait until Marie gets up there.

Thanks again to the die hards that made it out! Hope to see more smiling faces next week!
