No longer a backyard BBQ amongst a
few friends, the West
Coast Reining Horse
Association Banquet has grown to be
an enormous social gathering of West
Coast Members, family, friends, and
Reining enthusiasts. The last several
years have seen an attendance of over
200 guests and our once small “club”
has grown exponentially and is now
considered a full blown association!
Despite our growth and our increase in
membership, our association has managed to keep its “club” mentality with
its membership retaining their close ties
to one another; always showing support
for each other in and out of the show
pen. It is one facet of our AssociationClub that I am the most proud of and
have the most respect for. Despite the
fact that our beginnings were humble
and our environment is familial, we still
maintain a highly competitive edge that
holds its own not only here in the state
of California, but across the nation as
well. Don’t be mistaken…….this family
is very competitive on all levels!
In 2011,
WCRHA sent 31
members back to
Oklahoma City to
compete in the
Adequan North
American Affiliate
Finals…..that is 10%
of our Membership!
Of those who made
the trip to OKC in
November, we
brought home 3
National Titles, 6
Reserve Titles, and
First ever “HORSE OF THE YEAR”
16 Top Ten Finishes.

Why Do We Ride Horses and Eat Cows?
A Look into an Elite Athlete
---Elizabeth Rammerstorfer, M.S.
When I taught Introduction to Equine
Sciences at Texas A&M and at Oregon
State Universities, I liked to start the first
lecture with the question : Why do we
ride horses and eat cows? Why is it the
Pony Express and not the Polled Hereford
Express? One of the best answers I got
was that it would be awfully hard to chase
down a mustang while riding a steer.
Why is this so very, very true? Certainly there are intelligence and willingness to be trained issues. And obviously
there are structural differences. Equus
caballus has a long, slender neck, a short
back in relation to length of shoulder,
hip and underline, and don’t forget those
long, long legs. Plus the horse stands on
a single toed hoof that allows for more
traction and propulsion than a cloven
two-toed animal.
But what about the things that you
can’t readily see? The horse has physiologic features that are unique and astounding. Features that make the horse an elite
athlete by nature. Secretariat was the only
non-human on Sports Illustrated’s list of
the 20th Century’s Greatest Athletes.
You Gotta Have Heart
The equine
heart weighs
approximately
1% of a horse’s
body weight. A
1,000 lb. horse
can have a 10 lb.
heart. Where as
a bovine of similar size will have
a heart that tops
out at five or
so pounds and
a human male
elite athlete’s heart will be perhaps 0.3%
his body weight. In regards to body size,
a horse has as a heart that is two to three
times the size of both the matador and
the bull!
2
Perhaps you have heard of the incredible size of Secretariat’s heart. His heart
was discovered to be an astonishing 19 lbs
in a necropsy
following his
death!
This advantage in heart
size allows the
horse to have a
stroke volume
of one liter
(the amount of
blood moved
out of the
heart with one
beat) and the
ability to circulate blood at 300 liters per
minute during maximal exercise. Because
of this, horses naturally have a very low
resting heart rate (HR) of 24 -36 beats per
min (bpm).
The horse’s maximal HR during
exercise can be 7 to 10 times that of his
resting HR (24 bpm resting to 240 bpm
maximal output). In comparison with
two other athletic species: the human and
the canine, this is very impressive. The
elite athlete human and the winningest
greyhound can only
triple
their resting
t
HR
H for maximal
cardiac
output.
c
Blood Doper
B
In human athletes,
l
blood doping
is
i the illegal practice
of
o increasing the
number
of circulatn
ing
i red blood cells
(RBC)
(
in the blood
stream to improve
athletic performance. But the horse does
not have to break any rules to do this!
The equine spleen serves as a reservoir
to store red blood cells and releases them
into the bloodstream when needed for
exertion. The human spleen also stores
RBCs, but nowhere near the amount of
the horse and not in any amount that
would improve
w
aathletic output.
The equine spleen
T
ccan store up to 50%
of a horse’s total
o
RBC count. It’s
R
tthe RBCs that carry
oxygen to muscles.
o
When a horse
begins exercising, the
b
sstored RBCs begin
ccirculating and can
double the oxygen
d
carrying capacity
of the bloodstream. This can happen
slowly during a warm up period in a calm,
obedient horse or extremely quickly in a
frightened or “fresh” horse. Perhaps you
can recall a time that you dealt with an
over-excited horse at the onset of a ride, or
a seemingly quiet horse that gets spooked
and suddenly turns into the Tasmanian
Devil. Instead of saying a fresh horse is
“feeling his oats” it would be more appropriate to say he is “spilling his spleen”!
Muscle “Car”
The metabolic output of the equine is
maximal for his size. The horse is capable
of four times the energy production of
other animals of equal size. Think Ferrari versus Yugo. We now know about
his amazing heart and all those RBCs in
his spleen just waiting to join the party.
Another incredible feature of the equine
athlete is his ability to store fuel in muscle
tissue. Glycogen is a form of carbohydrate
energy stored in the muscles. In human
athletes, glycogen stores increase with
fitness and can be “loaded” with dietary
intake before an athletic event.
Naturally, the horse has the highest
concentration of glycogen stores that any
other species. By comparison : Horses :
500 – 600 mmol/kg. Cattle: 80 mmol/
Continued on page 4

Eating Cows...from page 2
kg and Humans 80 – 300 mmol/kg (depending on level of fitness/diet).
Gonna Make You Sweat
It makes no sense to saying you are
“sweating like a pig” when the fact of the
matter is, pigs do NOT sweat. Equids and
humans are the ONLY animals that sweat
profusely enough to cool themselves during heat stress. Bet you didn’t know that!
The horse is capable of sweating up
to 10 liters per hour to cool off during
extreme heat stress. An exercising human
can sweat 2 – 3 liters per hour. A cow
might be able to produce a tablespoon of
sweat drops in one hour. Have you ever
seen a cow pant?
This ability to sweat allows the horse to
be a true athlete capable of sustained and
repeated athletic performance. Interestingly, the better conditioned the horse,
the more he will sweat when needed. An
unfit horse’s sweat will be foamy and
sticky. The fit horse will readily produce a
watery clear sweat when his body requires
thermoregulation.
Gotta Eat and Run
The fact that horses have a small
stomach (2 – 4 gallons) makes room for
them to have enormous lungs. Although
an herbivore, the horse is not a ruminant.
He is a monogastric fermenter (meaning
his hind-gut or large colon and cecum do
a lot of digestive work. This is unusual for
an herbivore). The bovine rumen holds

as much as 25
gallons and
takes up a lot
of space. Plus
rumen digestion
takes quite a bit
of time, which
is the reason
cows must lay
down for a
period of time
and “chew their
cud” while all that forage and grain is being digested. Consequently, bovines have
horns to defend themselves from predators when they are unable to skedaddle.
While the horse’s response to danger first
and foremost is to RUN!
With those massive lungs, the exercising horse can move 1,800 liters/min of
air in and out of his airways. This big
pulmonary system and small stomach,
large hind-gut, monogastric fermentation
system does come at a cost as it is one of
the reasons why horses are prone to colic.
Under a Saddle Instead of on
the Dinner Plate
In review the horse has: a huge heart
and lungs to match, a big storage of red
blood cells in the spleen, fuel (glycogen)
stored to the max in muscles, the ability
to “eat and run”, can sweat buckets and
has a beautiful, slender neck, long legs
and strong hooves to carry him swiftly.
The relationship between man and
horse has been on going for nearly 30,000
years. Initially mankind utilized the
horse as a food source. But the natural
athleticism of the horse eventually made it
apparent that his value to us was as a beast
of burden, a vehicle to be ridden or driven
for travel, a comrade in war and modern
day’s partner in sport and recreation.

Memorial in Middleburg, VA
“Look over the struggle for freedom
Trace your present day strength to it source
You’ll find that man’s pathway to glory
Is strewn with the bones of a horse.”

THE 2011 SHOW SEASON
WAS AN INCREDIBLE YEAR FOR
WCRHA
AND IT’S MEMBERS!
Kicking off the 2012 Show Season was our annual WCRHA
Awards Banquet and General Meeting held at the Sacramento
Marriott on January 14th. It is our annual West Coast Reining Horse Association Banquet that allows us to celebrate
and validate our accomplishments and to inspire us to forge
ahead with new sets of goals. Such social gatherings allow us
to appreciate and applaud ourselves, our fellow competitors,
and our friends and they also allow us to find inspiration in
the achievements and positive attitudes of our peers. What an
amazing year we had in 2011.

SHAWN FLARIDA
REINING CLINIC
by Stacey Hamilton
First ever “KATHRYN CAGLE,
INSPIRE ME AWARD”
Kim Yancey
The Silent Auction proved once
again to be one of the biggest hits of
the evening. Thank you Briita Jacobson for all your hard work
and to Terry Holland for
organzing the banquet.
YEAR END POINTS DONT COUNT
I had the pleasure to attend Shawn
Flarida’s reining clinic held at Cottonwood on January 13-14th, along with
many other West Coast members. He
had us split into two groups to work on
turn-arounds and circles, then in the
afternoon we would all work on stopping.
The first thing he did was have each one
of us introduce ourselves and our horse
and tell him the one thing we’d really like
help with. Then we got to work!
He started working with us on our spins.
He’d watch us turn for a minute, really
contemplating how our horse moves and
how he could help us get them to turn
that +1/2 more. I know this was the area
that he helped me the most and I heard
similar statements from others in attendance. There was not one thing he did
for every horse that helped as he adjusted
what he taught based on what he thought
the horse/rider team needed. I do have
to admit though, there was one thing he
used on a lot of the broke horses that
really sharpened the turns. I know that
myself and the other attendees would be
willing to share if anyone is interested.
I was impressed by many things in
the clinic. The first one being, that it
was evident that Shawn loves our sport
of reining and the horses that compete
in it. He had something positive to say
about every horse. He was also a really good coach. We all know that just
because you can win everything you enter,
doesn’t mean you can teach someone else
to do so. Shawn was patient with each
of us and has the ability to communicate
clearly so that you understand what he is
asking you to do. He even hopped on a
few horses to show the rider what he was
trying to accomplish. He had a special
fondness for Kathleen Cook’s little gelding and spent a lot of time helping the
two of them in their turn arounds.
If the opportunity arises for you to
attend or audit one of Shawn’s clinics, I’d
recommend it.

President’s Letter...from page 1
largest Affiliate in the nation with a
membership of over 300 people? Not
only is our membership the highest in
the nation, we also have the highest number of competitors who have
“Designated”, or “officially committed”
to WC as the Affiliate for which they
would compete in Oklahoma City come
Affiliate Finals time. Our membership is
at a current all time high of 310 and
since January 1, 2012 we have already
signed up 29 brand spanking new members. What an exciting start to the 2012
show season! Not only is our membership continuing to grow, but so is every
aspect of our “club”. In 2011, our
Annual Budget was over $300,000. Our
Added Money at our five Affiliate shows
exceeded $50,000 with an Awards
Budget of over $55,000 and a total
Payout of over $86,000!! All of this
would not be possible without the generous contributions of all of our Sponsors
both large and small. Up 20% from
2010, our sponsorship monies have made
the biggest difference in our ability to
offer quality events with quality awards
and we are extremely fortunate in that
our membership not only comes to our
shows and supports us through their
entry fees, but a HUGE percentage of
our members open their wallets and
check books to provide sponsorship monies. We are also lucky to have had the
opportunity to garner a number of large
Platinum and Gold Sponsors as well.
Our Platinum Sponsors include Silver
Spurs Equine, Darling Ranch 888, Lost
Trail Ranch, Jill and Geir Ramleth and
Murieta Equine Complex. Just behind
our Platinum Sponsors are our Gold
Sponsors which includes Galligan
Performance Horses, Hanson
Performance Horses, Boyle Ranch,
Yancey Performance Horses, and Select
the Best. We sincerely thank ALL of
those whose generosity makes our
Association possible.
Speaking of what has become possible……..in 2012, we will once again be
offering our $5,000 Added Non Pro
Shoot Out in May, our $1500 Added
Open and Non Pro Maturity in July, the
NRHA Green Reiner Program, and ultimately the Northwest Regional Affiliate
Finals! We will, for the second year in a
row, offer the WCRHA Horse of the
Year award which will go to the highest
point earning horse of any age, in any
division(s) with any rider or combination
of riders. In addition, we will look forward to reading our next round of
Kathryn Cagle “Inspire Me” applications,
which will be submitted to the Board of
Directors so as to choose our 2012 recipient. A sincere congratulations to this
year’s winners……….Cromer Simpson,
owned and ridden by Debi Murnan
earned this year’s Horse of the Year
award, while Kim Yancey was the recipient of the First Annual Kathryn Cagle
Inspire Me perpetual trophy.
All this said, I would like to reiterate
again how proud I am of this “Club” and
where it has come from and where it is
going. I can’t thank enough my Board of
Directors and all of those volunteers who
have given countless hours to making
this club one of the biggest, strongest,
and most competitive in the nation.
With that, I would like to welcome our
two newest Board Members, Christian
Rammerstorfer and Andy Lockewood to
our ranks. As the Re Elected 2012
President, I look forward to working with
them both as we move forward into yet
another exciting year of Reining on the
West Coast!!

JACQUELINE T. SHAWVER EARNS
WCRHA SCHOLARSHAP AWARD
Early morning drives. Awards banquets. Cramming too many people onto a tiny
dirtbike. Fighting E-Z up tents. Visiting Jager, the German Shepherd, while
checking the draw. Rooting friends on with whistles and cheers during their
patterns, and getting the same thing back during my run. To me, all of these
are synonymous with my time spent and memories made with the West Coast
Reining Horse Association. It isn‛t really a specific memory that has impacted
me the most, but the general atmosphere of each and every West Coast show.
It is how every weekend that we are together showing, our barn becomes a
family. How outside of showing, WCRHA members come together as friends.
And that at the very least, we all have one thing that brings us together- our
love for the sport of Reining. That has impacted me the most.
The years that I have spent showing with West Coast has brought me closer
to my friends at the barn, and for that I am forever grateful. The daily
y routines of helping each other saddle up, waking up early to feed, or heading
ng to
the wash rack together after a long day of showing has changed our
relationship to that of a family. While at times we get annoyed with
each other, at the end of the day, we are always there for one another.
When one of us is in the show ring, the rest of us can be found along
the fence cheering for them. Through thick and thin, I can always countt
on my barn friends, and I wholeheartedly believe that our relationship iss
what it is from showing together.
Jacqueline Shawver
was recently presented with a
WCRHA Scholarship. Her essay
is presented here.
Congratulations Jackie!
We encourage all youth to go to the
NRHA website and join the NRHyA.
Youth have many scholarships available
and alot of fun activities to participate in throughout the year.
For more information contact
Judy Robison
(707) 799-6352 | robisonjudy@comcast.net
On a larger scale, there is a sense of friendliness among the entire
idWCRHA. Sometimes it‛s just a simple smile or nod exchanged between riders, the kindness of someone dropping their horse off at the WCRHyA
horse wash, or a little friendly competition at the annual dog races. Thiss
dI
kind attitude towards others can be seen at every West Coast show, and
cipate
think that it has impacted me. It makes West Coast shows fun to participate
in and has therefore encouraged me to return year after year.
The reality is that all the years I have spent showing with WCRHA has
left me with incredible friends, a strong support system, and too many
amazing memories for me to possibly count. It is West Coast Reining
Horse Association in its entirety that has impacted me. Every event,
every early morning feed and crowded dirtbike ride, every person I have
met, and every show. Every second that I have spent at West Coast
shows has impacted me, and I wouldn‛t trade it for the world.
