Taylor Cherry has a resume that is loaded with championships from the futurity, derby, and professional rodeo ranks. She is a 5X Royal Crown Canada Futurity Champion, the current standard pattern record holder in Canada running a 16.595, won the CPRA Rookie of the Year title, and has won rounds at the Canadian Finals Rodeo, plus so much more. We really enjoyed hearing her down to earth process on creating the next set of champions in her trailer and how she prepares them to win at all levels.

Julie Plourde had made a name for herself in the Canadian and IPRA rodeo world before buying her WPRA card in 2024. She ended up her rookie season as the reserve rookie champion, and in 2025 set a goal to make the National Finals Rodeo. When September 30th came around she finished 16th in the standings, but ended up making her first trip to the Thomas and Mack when she got the call a week prior that she was filling in for Anita Ellis. Julie capitalized on her opportunity, ending up the NFR Average Champion and winning $119k over 10 runs in Vegas. We didn't get a chance to have Julie on the podcast prior to the finals, but it all worked out being able to talk to her afterwards and learn about her journey in 2025 and what she has in the works going forward!

A hot topic in our industry is always what goes on behind the scenes of producing a barrel race - how payouts are decided, what format to use, what goes into creating an incentive, who does it benefit most, scheduling, and everything else that goes into putting on a barrel race. We wanted to have a round table like discussion with fellow regional producer and founder of THM Productions - Maegan McPherson of Box Elder, South Dakota as well as trainers, breeders, and stallion owners Lee & Hallie Hanssen. We really talked about it all, as well as an intro to their new incentive The Gold Rush - which is a northern alliance for breeders, trainers, stallion owners and barrel racing enthusiasts that will bring one of the largest paying futurities and maturities ever to South Dakota!

When we asked our listeners what you wanted to hear about in 2026, we had many comments requesting a deep dive into the ICSI breeding process. We had a great conversation with Dr. Thiago Boechat co-founder of GeneTech Animal Reproduction and Melanie Smith, founder of Solo Select Horses, Select Genes and Select Reproduction. Thiago and Melanie have dealt with thousands of ICSI aspirations over the years and we discussed everything from the ICSI process, realistic expectations, misconceptions and myths, pros and cons, why there is a need for this, and what the future may hold with this technology in the western performance horse industry. 2026 foals are already being born and the breeding season is days away and we hope you enjoy this episode and it may help you make the best decision for your mares in 2026!
