With ponies from across Alberta and BC having qualified for the NASPR Stars of the West Challenge Cup finals, the competition was fierce.

Under the beautiful blue skies at Anderson Ranch in Calgary, AB, judge Lorne Robertson awarded the grand championship, $500 in prize money, and the PTF Challenge Cup to Alvesta Brianna and owners Karen and Dean Chorney, in their rookie year of showing.  Cajonat’s Encore, owned by Natalie Lobo was the overall Reserve Champion.

The series finale was hosted by RMSJ during the Rocky Mountain Classic III. According to series organizers, Dallas Grubenmann and Melany Moore, who worked diligently to make the series such a success, there has been tremendous interest generated in 2011 and they anticipate expanding the series for the 2012 season.
