NCHA 4CYTE FUTURITY LEGENDS WRAP-UP
JACK AND THE 'FLAMING CAT'WIN THE FUTURITY WITH A FINAL SCORE OF 226!
Shepparton cowboy Jack Johnston started the NCHA 4CYTE Futurity with a solid 217pt run on board Tri Star Quarter Horse Stud’s 'Flaming Cat' (NRR Cat King Cole X EB S Flame Tree - bred by Angus McKinnon) but got everyone’s attention with the top score of 221.50pts in the second go round giving him a 438.50pt aggregate and thus qualifying him for the final, fourth in the aggregate.
Third out in the second herd of a 21-horse final, Jack faced a leader board with one of his bosses on top, Lindsey Wheatley who had shown Mark Ruff’s 'Lady Phairy Tale' (EB S Phalaris X Fair Lady Flash) on a score of 222pts. To follow, 6 Trainers who would ride 8 horses and who between them hold 11 Futurity titles! Could they hunt him down?
