I don’t know about you, but I’m still pretty impressed by Caroline Martin clearing 5’11” to win the bareback puissance at Plantation Field last weekend. Well done, Caroline. Plantation Field reported that more than 500 people attended the first ever Mechanical Bull Riding Contest, in which the Young Riders bested all other teams — including our Olympians: Phillip Dutton, Boyd Martin, Karen O’Connor and Will Coleman. Let’s step it up next time, Olympic team!
