Everybody loves Susan’s great horse Quatro. At 17 years-young, Quatro has been retired from barrel racing competition to enjoy living out the remainder of his life as a ranch horse. Susan is training a six year-old APHA mare, Odie, who she is now hauling to selected barrel races. Susan also is polishing the foundation on our team horse, Mr. Chill Wills. “Chile” is a 10 year-old A Sharp Leo, Mr. Peppy San bred, red roan gelding that we use for horse fair demonstrations, DVDs and television.
