@ponokastampede: The breakaway roping got faster again in performance 6, with Amanda Terrell snapping out a 2.4 second run, putting her on top overall with a mere 6.6 seconds. The Colorado cowgirl has been roping and traveling in Canada since May, when she teamed up with Jenna Dallyn on the road. Terrell ropes off a horse called Midget, which she acquired in a trade for her goat horse. “Midget has just been the biggest blessing to me. I wouldn’t be able to do it without him, that’s for sure. He’s my best friend and he’s a good one,” says Terrell. Terrell was able to rope in the pre-Stampede breakaway jackpot, where she experienced the famous ‘long score’ run. “I’d never actually watched the Ponoka Stampede before,” she admits sheepishly, relying on advice from fellow ropers on how much to ‘see’ before heading out after her calf. But it worked and she won plenty at the jackpot, notching a 2.8 there and gaining some valuable experience on the challenging setup. “I definitely think it’s more of a cowgirl roping, which I like. I like those long scores. I’ve grown up watching Cheyenne Frontier Days, and have roped there the past few years. I love rodeos like this. You’ve really got to read your calf. You’ve just got to feel it out, and ride your horse and go rope.” ✏️ Dianne Finstad #rodeo #ponokastampede #breakawayroping
