Javier Melo

Although he is only 15 years old, Javi is a force to be reckoned with at any level of Non Pro competition. He hails from South Florida.

Since then, he has NRHA earnings of over $41,000, many wins including 4 Congress Championships, a reserve world championship and a NRHA Futurity championship. Watch for him in the upcoming derbies and the 2012 futurities.

Jan Pence

Jan is fairly new to reining. In fact, she is new to riding in general. Just over 3 years ago, she had never even ridden a horse!! In that short amount of time she has won numerous buckles and plaques in her quest to compete at the NAAC Rookie Of The Year competition. In 2011, she accomplished that goal. Jan is married and shares this sport with her husband. She has 2 grown children and she is currently a partner in a new business venture with fellow reiner Lee Windham.

Kyndall Harper

15 yr old Kyndall may as well be a veteran in the NRHA showpen. She has been showing for years and has done it with her trusty sidekick Please Me Whiz. As a team they have been unstoppable. They won the 2010 USEF gold medal in the 13 and under division. In 2010, they also showed their way to 3rd in the world in the Ltd Non Pro. It is a dream team that just became unstoppable in 2011. Kyndall and “Chicken” took their successes to new heights and won the 2011 world championships in 2 divisions. She won the Ltd. Non Pro and Int. Non Pro divisions!! Kyndall is an amazing talent and is looking to continue her winning ways in 2012. While Chicken gets a much deserved break, she and Jazzy Cindy Lou will be showing in the derbies this season. We look forward to seeing them make headlines very soon!
