WALTENBERRY sense that Deary was about to be anointed. As the remaining seven riders flew through the pattern in the waning half hour of the competition, only one rider, Tim McQuay of Tioga, Texas, and the stallion Gunners Tinseltown (Gunner x Miss Tinseltown), even came close to challenging Deary. With a score of 225 points, even McQuay, an Whitney Conrad NRHA Hall of Famer had to bow to the 31-year-old Deary and white-masked, mare who Deary affectionately calls “Lily.” OPEN FINALIST NOMINATORS Two nominators had three or more horses in the finals: MARTINA CICELOVA CINDER LAKES RANCH (4) CHEXAWALLA: ridden by Cody Clock, owned by Day Creek Ranch LLC REF BLACK MAMBA: ridden by Jordan Larson, owned by Rancho El Fortin GOTTA GOLD CHAIN: ridden by Cody Sapergia, owned by Jac Point QH STEPPIN ON SPARKS: ridden by Andrea Fappani, owned by HDC Quarter Horses BOB LOOMIS (3) WEST COAST RANEE: ridden by Mathieu Buton, owned by Bob Loomis WHIZZER WHIZ: ridden by Thiago Boechat, owned by Xtra Quarter Horses, LLC HOT CHIC WHIZ: ridden by Mathieu Buton, owned by Bob Loomis Tim McQuay and Gunners Tinseltown WALTENBERRY WALTENBERRY
MARTINA CICELOVA WALTENBERRY NRHA Million Dollar Sire In a career punctuated with many honors, Bill and Dawn Pohl’s Whizard Jac, was honored for becoming an NRHA Million Dollar Sire. DAWN BAXSTROM Tim McQuay “I had a lot of confidence in the mare the whole time,” said Deary as he looked back over the grueling 10-day-long competition. “On October 10, my wife (Nicole) was doing her daily Bible study. She got a picture in her mind that I would win this and she wrote that down. She didn’t share that with me until the night we left for Oklahoma City. It gave me confidence. I had a lot of faith in what my wife said.” In a twist of fate, both Lily and McQuay’s reserve champion horse Gunners Tinseltown got their start in life at Silva Reining Horses, the breeding farm of McQuay’s longtime client, friend, and new NRHA Million Dollar Owner, David Silva Sr. and his wife, Bonnie. Silva kept the colt, slotting it into McQuay’s training program as one of his own candidates for the 2012 Futurity. Prime Time Open Champions and Level 4 Open Reserve Champion, Gunners Tinseltown and Three Million Dollar Rider Tim McQuay, helped push David Silva, Sr. (holding trophy) into the NRHA Million Dollar Owner club.
