Jodee Miller made history at The Old Fort Days Futurity & Derby by winning the Futurity and Derby in the same year as a breeder, owner, and rider.
Miller was confident in her and her horses’ abilities but never expected this.
“I obviously am pretty mind blown. My sister and I have been doing this for a long time now. We have slowly started making our way to getting some wins and getting some really nice horses and stuff. For it to come the way it did is just mind-blowing. It all happened at once.”
Heading into the finals Miller says she was just having fun with the finals.
“I had already won the derby, Smash had won fourth in the long round. I felt like if I made a smooth clean run and didn’t get in his way then you know that would be icing on the cake. I didn’t have any expectations I just knew I wanted to stay relaxed.”
