What an absolutely incredible World Show it was for SHR QTs DiamondCutter adding many more Titles to his Record including his first World Championship, NRHA Championships, another Reserve World Championship, NRHA Reserve Championship, Two Top 3 World Championships, Four Top 4 World Championships, Four Top 5 World Championships and 3 Top Ten World Championships! I couldn't be more proud or more blessed to have bred, owned and now shown this amazing, talented stallion!

When Cutter's sire retired from showing, I sort of did too. I briefly showed SHR Twist N Shout at a couple of shows in 2017 and shotgun took The Sweet Spot to one Ranch Horse Show in December 2020, but really, I have hardly ridden period since 2017 and have been solely focused on our breeding program. Kaity encouraged me to take Cutter in the Amateur classes. I am SO glad that I put my big girl panties on and showed him. His heart, try and desire to please was so remarkable. I felt like I was riding his daddy. This was only Cutter's second ever Ranch Show, just like me. We both had VERY little practice in the event and really weren't entirely sure what we were doing, but we both put our best foot forward. Cutter had been in Reining Training with Daniel Schloemer in Arizona so Kaity and I didn't have opportunity to ride him before the World Show and after the Reining was over. Cutter really showed up and rose to the occasion for us. This horse is just so special. Lord I sure love him. Thank you so much Daniel for all of your hard work with Cutter, what a show this was!! Thank you!!!

A VERY Special Thank You to Kaity Sotomayor for all of your support, encouragement, friendship, guidance, coaching and getting me to put my big girl panties on!!!!!

We are SO grateful for all of our friends near and far, the encouragement, support, the belief in our program and our horses. Thank you one and all so very much! We are soooo grateful to each and every one of you!!!

If you would like to breed your mare to Cutter, we would love to chat with you!!!! Please find more information here: https://www.secrethillsranch.com/shr-qts-diamondcutter/

The APHA World Show was a HUGE success. I couldn’t be more proud to of raised this incredible horse and shown him myself to his first World Championship!! SHR QTs DiamondCutter has been in Arizona with Daniel Schloemer since October. He had only had, gosh, maybe 2-3 weeks tops of actual Ranch Horse training with Kaity Sotomayor before he went back to Daniel. Then Kaity and I had just two short days at the World Show after Daniel showed him in the Reining to prepare him for the Ranch Horse. He handled everything just incredibly. The pressure was definitely on with some insanely incredible multiple World Champion Ranch Horses and gigantic classes. My hat is off to this good minded, willing, trooper of a stallion who never said no, who rose to the occasion and who tried his heart out!! An enormous Thank You to our Trainers Kaity Sotomayor, Daniel Schloemer and Kari Klingenberg!! You all are amazing. I owe so much to each of you, THANK YOU!!! Also, just a reminder I’m so sorry my Facebook is still down from the Hacker. I cannot get ahold of Facebook to get any help. I’m still posting from our Instagram account. If you need me, please text or call 619-820-2994. Thank you all!
