Peponitas Little Gal is a 2001 mare by Peponitas Acre out of Lemacs Little
Girl. She is proudly owned by our family. "Shortcake" was started as a 3 year old by Darren and did
not enter the showpen until 2005. In 2005 she was the Limited Open Hackamore Champion for the South Central Region of
the NRHCA in just 3 shows. In 2006 she earned the Reserve Champion title with only 2 shows. In 2007 she was
top 10 for the Limited Open Bridle and only shown once. She and Darren had a great show at the 2008 Worlds Greatest
Horseman competition, falling just short of making the finals. Photo of Peponitas Little

The following pictures are of Smart N Chexy, a 2000 AQHA mare by Bueno Chexinic out of Chelsea Lena. She was the only
mare to make the finals of the 2006 Worlds Greatest Horseman competition and ended up 8th. "Smarty" was 3rd
high score in the preliminary Steer Stopping competition. Smarty was originally owned and trained by Darren, later purchased
by Crystal Ward, Lincolnton, NC, and was returned to Darren for training after he went out on his own. Going into the
competition the mare had only 4 months of Cutting and Roping training and ended up 8th overall! Thank you Crystal for
the opportunity to show this nice mare!
