The Redbud Spectacular plays host to great numbers and great horses

The annual Redbud Spectacular is underway in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The 10 day show features a full slate of AQHA classes as well as NSBA dual approved events. The show draws exhibitors from across the country to the sooner state.

“We always love coming to the Redbud, it’s one of our favorite shows of the year,” said Libby Rinder. “The facility is great and the people, horses, and competition are always exceptional. So far this year has been great, the weather is perfect and the show has been lots of fun! We have a lot of favorite restaurants in Oklahoma City but one of our top ones is Redrock Canyon out on Lake Hefner!”

With stalls nearing the same numbers as last year and entries doing just as well show management is excited about the future.

“This year is going great. We are within 10 stalls if last year,” said Jackie Karsha  “The show has been running really smooth. The number are good. We have had great weather, great horses, and judges. I am really happy with turn out of the show.”

The featured event this year was the inaugural Redbud Ranch Riding Event with $5,000 added money and $10,000 in prizes including saddles, Yeti coolers and custom Mike Edwards spurs.

Classes continue until Sunday and the judges for this year’s event are: All Around Judges: Sissy Anderson, Elizabeth Baker, Ryan Kail, Keith Miller, Judd Paul, Nancy Renfro, Curtis Reynolds, Sara Simons, Courtney Fuller, Karen McCuistion.
