Brock, Texas’ Jamie Olsen and her horse, Easy, stopped the clock at the National Western Stock Show at 15.18 seconds to take a half second lead over their competition.
Easy is not the horse Olsen would normally run on a indoor pattern but after talking with other barrel racers about it she decided that was the best decision for her.
“Sometimes I feel like I kind of second guess myself just because I know that I can do it so then I start to have expectations. I try to tell myself don’t have expectations, control your emotions, just relax have fun and just do it,” she said.
Bracket One Round One is in the books for Olsen and Easy.
