Contestants and spectators, alike, endured a gamut of moods in the weather and anim als. That, in itself, made for incal culable action in the two-day event. The first annual Frenchy Spino Memorial Wild Horse Race was held both days, with 32 teams wres tling their way toward a chunk of the prize money. After the dust settled Sunday, the Randy Guess team of Gresham claimed First place honors and over $2,300 in prize money. The Jason Smith team took second while the James Ellsburg team claimed third. Guess commented that he and team members Troy Winters and David Abbott felt the competition was good and that there was a "good pen of horses." The winning team received large silver buckles for their efforts. "The buckles will remind us of the Spino family and the race for a long time," said Guess. Payoff was made imme diately following the finals. "I've never been paid so well or so fast in my life," said Guess. Following are the results of the rodeo. Sid Kochamp and Jerry Frazier split first and second honors in saddle bronc, while Tommy Ball and Shawn Best split first and second in the bull riding event. Jack Fields qwualified to take first in junior bulls. Tom Begay and son Anson took first in team roping while Marilyn Colliflower took first in the senior barrels and Mandy Talbot placed first in junior barrells. Are you fit?
