Team 3 - Vallery **


Hi.  My name is Jessica Vallery and I am a 2012 Distance Derby Competitor.  I have one horse who's name is Cutter and we do just about everything.  I've done one CTR and several Trail Challenges and competitions.  Cutter is pretty much a jack of all trades you could say, but our favorite activity is just trail riding with friends and enjoying the country side on horse back.


In my other life I am married to a farmer/rancher and have two boys who really don't have much to do with the horses.  It's pretty much my thing.  I hope to meet up on the trails with a lot of you this year!  This is my third year in the Distance Derby.

Happy Trails!!

    1.21 Miles on Hank
    Deanne of team 43 was at my house and we decided to ride bareback just to be able to say we rode and start the year off! Had a great ride and it was interesting to see someone else ride Cutter.

    Deanne of Team 43 came over and rode Cutter for me and I rode Hank. We met up with Corie of team 47 about half way through the ride and rode together for a couple miles than split off and headed home. Weather was great!

    Hauled over to Juanita's (Team 41) and rode with her out in the fields, super muddy and slippery. Cutter had a pretty good sweat going when we got back to the stalls!

    Wind was blowing and it got chilly, the dog was on my heels the whole time and Cutter was not happy about that. Once I got the dog to go home we had a nice ride.
