Jane Melby describes her win at the Glen Rose qualifier

The Dinosaur Classic American Qualifier just took place in Glen Rose, Texas.

They had 192 barrel racers and paid 20 spots, with 19 cowgirls advancing to the semi-finals of The American Rodeo. It was all won by Jane Melby riding RC Black and Famous. Her winning time was 14.650.

Melby said she entered the qualifier in Glen Rose at the encouragement of her daughter, who had already qualified for the semi-finals. Melby will now join her daughter at Cowtown Coliseum at the end of the month.

“The leave off of the first barrel is what made the run,” she said. “I knew when I left the first barrel I was in good shape.”
