The goal of WinningRuns.com has always been to educate barrel racers, and to help you make Winning Runs! The Road to Winning video series is a serious step toward that ultimate goal. This second installation of the series sees Charlotte pick up where Terry, John Paul and T.J. left off. Charlotte brings some more advanced horses to the Diamond W Arena and moves forward to pattern work in this video.

You are allowed full access to Charlotte’s training regimen in this video as she moves to the pattern with a couple of horses that are very different from the last video’s participants. The change in horses allows Charlotte to expand her conversation about conformation and the kind of horses she chooses for her personal barn. More than the change in mount, Charlotte’s choice in horses allows us to see her program as it applies to more advanced level horses.

This video will be an important staple in your video library as it emphasizes the importance of a strong foundation. Since the inception of WinningRuns.com, Charlotte has advocated a strong foundation and broke horse. In this video, she again impresses the importance of the basics in making a barrel horse. Topics such as equipment selection, hand placement on the reins, your approach to the barrel, forward motion, consistent communication and a consistent warm up routines are discussed.

This video is suitable for advanced riders and horse handlers with strong riding ability. The exercises presented here are suitable for colts and young horses, and care should be taken to exercise caution when working with young horses. It is the recommendation of WinningRuns.com that handlers with limited experience attempt these methods only under the supervision of a professional.

Liz Holder and her horse Rocket join Charlotte for a mini-clinic in this video, and the session is just as insight filled as the rest of the video. Rocket has been running already and has some habits that Liz would like Charlotte to help her address. After a run through the patter, Charlotte rides Rocket around and tunes on him just a bit. The change is remarkable, and the smile on Liz’s face when she gets back on her horse speaks volumes. With the results of just this short mini-clinic, it’s obvious that Liz and Rocket are well on their way to making some Winning Runs!

With Charlotte Cunningham, Terry Ford, John Paul Trujillo and T.J. Jones
The goal of WinningRuns.com has always been to educate barrel racers, and to help you make Winning Runs!   The Road to Winning video series is a serious step toward that ultimate goal.  This series will literally take the viewer from beginning to end, from ground work to fast work!  Charlotte has planned a series that starts by bringing Terry Ford, John Paul Trujillo and T.J. Jones of RTF Running Horses right into your living room where they will help you select and train your colts from start to finish.
Terry Ford and John Paul Trujillo take time in the beginning of this video to discuss and demonstrate the steps they take with their colts from the time they hit the ground to instill a solid foundation on them.  While Terry discusses the process, John Paul illustrates how to begin groundwork with a colt so that he is ready for the next steps in training.  John Paul’s patience is evident in this video, and it is easy to see why colts are so at ease in his hands.  The groundwork basics that are shown and explained in this video will have your horse used to being handled, receptive to ropes, blankets and the saddle, and willing to move out freely.
T.J. Jones moves the same colt past basic groundwork in this video, and illustrates some additional desensitization work that will help to create a calm horse even in dangerous situations.  The techniques that T.J. uses will have your colt rodeo ready, and far past the typical freak-outs that colts can be notorious for.  T.J.’s demeanor is calm and unruffled, and you can see that his methods are effective.
Charlotte spends some time during this video helping you choose a prospect for barrel racing.  She’ll go over the qualities that she looks for in her horses, and she also highlights the traits that she simply will not accept.  This video introduces her to one of the future stars that she has in her barn, and this gorgeous colt puts on quite a show as Charlotte talks about her first ride on a new horse.
This video is suitable for advanced riders and horse handlers with strong riding ability.  The exercises presented here are suitable for colts and young horses, and care should be taken to exercise caution when working with young horses.  It is the recommendation of WinningRuns.com that handlers with limited experience attempt these methods only under the supervision of a professional.
As an added bonus, you are invited to a private lesson with Charlotte Cunningham as the instructor.  Lisa Downs and Feather are the students in the Mini Clinic with Charlotte.  Lisa is a student from Charlotte’s full clinic held at Diamond W, and she is back for more for some one on one instruction.  It seems Feather has been getting past the first barrel and occasionally blowing off the third when asked for speed.  Charlotte offers some simple solutions and subtle tweaks, that garner immediate improvement and have Lisa and Feather on the road to making some Winning Runs!!

Marne rides three different horses in this video and she uses each of them to show you how to correct common issues that barrel horses exhibit when learning the pattern.  Marne’s philosophy of keeping training simple, encouraging forward motion and not getting in a hurry are perfectly illustrated with the three horses that she rides.  Each horse is different and presents with a different challenge, and Marne not only explains but shows you how to meet those challenges.

Bob takes time in this video to explain the importance of making sure your horse is level and balanced when shod, and he illustrates on different horses how that can mean different things.  Bob clearly explains how common shoeing mistakes can affect your horses’ movement, and he discusses how those same mistakes can often lead to founder, navicular issues, ringbone and contracted or under run heels on your horse.  The time spent with Bob in this video is invaluable to the barrel racer, because as Charlotte points out, “No foot - No Horse.”  Bob’s explanations will leave you well equipped to discuss your horses needs at your next farrier appointment and leave you with a better understanding of how your horses feet should work.

This video is suitable for beginner to advanced riders with at least average riding ability, and the exercises presented here are suitable for young to finished horses. Bob and Marne take time to discuss the importance of a strong warm up routine, picking up leads, bit and tack selection, keeping a horse collected in the turns, appropriate shoeing for your horse, as well as supplemental nutrition.  The Loosenort’s horses are a perfect study for this video.  They allow you to see Marne address such issues as blowing out of the back side of the barrel, anticipating the turns, being sluggish in the turns and cross firing.

The time spent with Bob and Marne will be a welcome addition to any training video collection, and the knowledge contained within will surely help you to go out and make that Winning Run!!

If you’ve wanted to go to a clinic, but for whatever reason could not make it, this month’s Winning Tips installment is for you!!  Take this incredible opportunity to be a non-riding student at on of Charlotte Cunningham’s barrel racing clinics.  You’ll get to watch her address issues specific to each student on the video, and you’ll have an opportunity to hear Charlotte explain her philosophy on running barrels and where our sport is headed.

DVD aprox. 1 hr. 45 min.

WinningRuns.com trip back East to visit Crossroads Arena in Cloverdale, Indiana, has been fruitful to say the least.  This month, Charlotte and the crew are coming to you again from the best arena East of the Mississippi, and they are bringing Brad Wagner to you!!  As a five time AQHA World Champion in both barrel racing and pole bending, a three time Sweepstakes Congress Champion in Pole bending, and with multiple futurity and derbt wins under his belt, Brad offers you his best in this video installment and he shows you how (from started colt to finished horse) to make that Winning Run!

In this video Brad shows you how to make a horse:
- How to start, train and tune a barrel horse.
- How to address common issues in finished horses.
- How to create fluidity and correctness around a barrel.
- and some helpful tips for pole benders.

Brad rides three different horses in this video and allows you to view his training program from start to finish.  Every aspect of his program is outlined and discussed in this video from breeding, to training, bit selection and correcting common issues.  Brad brings a three year old that is started on the pattern and hasn’t even made her first exhibition run yet, an older horse that is finished and being tuned and ridden to keep him working the pattern well, and still another horse from his barn who has some trouble with his first barrel and needs a little work.  Brad’s instruction focuses on helping you to create a smoother faster run with snappier turns and a willing horse who is light and responsive.

This video is suitable for beginner to advanced riders with at least average riding ability, and the exercises presented here are suitable for young to finished horses. Brad discusses such topics as bit selection, head placement, flexion, pocket size, alleyway refusal, leaning into pockets, and ducking at barrels.  With a focus on limiting the amount of fear and anxiety that is placed on his horses, Brad has been able to create a successful program.  This video is an opportunity to delve into Brad’s program and take away knowledge that will improve your partnership with your horse and allow you to make that Winning Run!
