GENNI BUTTS TIES FOR HIGH POINT YOUTH..

On October 13th 2012  Kiwi Performance horses trainer Lilly King, and her students headed off t​o Pasadena to compete in their Hi Point Buckle Open Show. 
​Christy Mullen took her paint gelding, Doug,  & Genni Butts loaded her paint mare, Jubi .
​The show was well attended, with up to 15 horses in some of the Pleasure classes.
The highlight of the day for all the kids was the costume class where the Jolly Green Monster won, with​ Pegasus close behind.  There were probably 10 competing. They looked so awesome.
Christy and Doug went to just do some Western classes and placed in all theirs and they really did look very  good.
Genni and Jubi went for the Buckle, and won theShowmanship and the Trail and were second in almost all of their other classes. Well done Genni.
At the days end she tied with Jaylynn and after a ​​​​tie breaker
​Genni came home with the Hi Point Reserve Buckle.
We are so very proud of our riders and we could not have asked
​them to have shown much better than they did.​  In all an
​awesome day at Pasadena. But the main thing was that
​ we had the time of our lives.
​We really missed Moira Mathews and her horse Sonny being
​with us, as she had worked so very hard to get ready for the Hunter classes, but last minute was unable to attend the show with us due to ill health

                                          CONGRATULATIONS  to you all.​




Always strive to be  the
     ​ BEST
​ but take the disappointments with your head held high and as the stepping stones to perfecting   yourself and your horse as
​        YOU
​ sometimes
have to lose to   become the
​        BEST
     in the end.








Had a pretty exciting day yesterday. Headed out to the Pasadena Show (first show without my mom and dad too) and ended up tying for High-point but received Reserve after the tie-breaker. Either way I'm extremely happy with Jubi's performance; she's really turned into a dream within the past year; I honestly think this was probably my best show with her. Have to say thanks to such an awesome trainer who's willing to put up with me all day at a show (and let me ride back in the truck) (;, Thanks Lilian King, you're simply the best.

On November 3 rd, 2012 we are headed to Tulsa to attend the " Pinto Colour Congress "  with  " Lena's easter Jubilee" and Genni Butts.  We wish her the best of luck and wish them a safe trip to and from the show. This duo have been working extremely hard for this major show, and as it happens will be their first Major Show which they will have attended to date.
No matter how they place everyone here at  Kiwi Performance Horses,  and Cherry Creek Arena will always think that they are WINNERS in our eyes.

Lilly is taking the Futurity Reiner with them so she can keep riding him while coaching Genni at the show.​

We here at Kiwi Perfomance Horses are very proud of them for doing such an awesome job showing in very tough competition all week.
On the 19th Nove/ Dec2, We headed to the 2012 NRHA Futurity show with " Whiz Kid Quixote " and competed with 470 other Horses for a prize of  $250,000.00.
It was a dream of a life time come true and although we did not make the finals " Whiz " was awesome and we had a lot of interest in Kiwi Performance Horses.
We would like to take this time to thank the owners of "Whiz " Performance Quarter Horses          for the opportunity to train and show such a wonderful horse.
     Thanks to this trip we have another futurity 2yr old coming  for 2013.

 Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone.
