<strong>QHRAI</strong> News<br />

<strong>QHRAI</strong><br />

at the<br />

Tom Mosley, <strong>QHRAI</strong> Director of Industry Relations, shows horse<br />

fans the fantastic photo album that Sarah Compton made after she<br />

attended the 2011 Quarter Horse Day at Indiana Downs. She had<br />

photos and details of horses in the paddock and going to the track and even<br />

about meeting jockeys and getting thier autographs. Sarah enterered her<br />

photo album in the 4-H fair and received Champion Honors. Sarah is a true<br />

example of someone who has a passion for horses and we certainly enjoyed<br />

her company at the Horse Fair. She talked about her experience and fun<br />

she had at Quarter Horse Day last year and the excitement of getting an at -<br />

home visit on Christmas Eve from Jockey Jeff Hogan. She had a smile on<br />

her face every time we saw her. Sarah went into the hospital just a couple<br />

days after these pictures were taken at the horse fair, to have heart surgery.<br />

Our thoughts and prayers are with Sarah and her family as she recovers and<br />

we look forward to her participating in the <strong>QHRAI</strong> Youth Day this year and<br />

and once again seeing her at Quarter Horse Day on June 30th.<br />
