WHEREAS, Dual Rey Me, an eight-year-old son of Dual Pep, following a year of weekend experience as a five-year-old, finished as reserve champion in both the $10,000 and $3,000 Novice divisions; and

WHEREAS, in 2005, Candace won the National Cutting Horse Association (NCHA) Non-Pro Classic Challenge and Jeremy was reserve in the Open Classic Challenge; and
