Zoetis, Matador Ranch Team Up to Name Next Remuda Roulette Winner
Award-winning fi lly to be presented to WNFR contestant F
OR THE SECOND YEAR, ZOETIS IS TEAMING UP WITH THE winner of the Zoetis-American Quarter Horse As- sociation (AQHA) Best Remuda Award to present
a Wrangler National Finals Rodeo (WNFR) contestant with a new horse. To honor the contributions that ranch horses make to the heritage of the American Quarter Horse, the 2013 winner, Matador Ranch, of Matador, is donating a 3-year-old fi lly to one lucky contestant at the 2013 WNFR. “This fi lly, MCC Royal Chic, is the result of the
hard work the ranch team has put forth to produce quality American Quarter Horses,” said James Palm- er of the Matador Ranch. “This fi lly will be a valu- able partner to the contes- tant who gets to take her home.” The Remuda Roulette
lottery, designed for the WNFR contestants, will award entries on a perfor- mance-based point scale during the 10 rounds of the rodeo Dec. 5 to 14, Las Vegas. Contestants receive a lottery chance simply for qualifying for the WNFR. Those contestants who perform well throughout the rodeo will receive ad- ditional chances to take home the fi lly. At the completion of the 10th round, a contestant
will be randomly selected from the pool of contestant entries to determine who will take home the grand- prize fi lly. The 2012 Remuda Roulette winner was team roping world champion Turtle Powell. The Matador Ranch is excited for the opportunity
