Night of the Horse 2011 - Tommie Turvey & Odd Job Bob

On Saturday April 23rd at the 66rd Annual Del Mar National Horse Show in Del Mar, California we were entertained by Equine Extremist Tommy Turvey.

Equine Extremist Tommy Turvey
Tommie Turvey and his amzazing horse acts rank among the finest and most exciting equine entertainers in the world! During "Night of the Horse" you will experience horsemanship at its best. You will be amazed by incredible entertainment, including Tommie's famous comedy with "Pokerjoe" and breathtaking two-horse, bridle-less liberty. Meet Tommie's wild mustang, Blade and his Heeler dog Maaverick, along with heart-stopping Roman riding.

The Greening of Whitney Brown
Whitney, a spoiled pre-teen from Philadelphia, is forced to move to the country when her parents feel the squeeze of economic hard times. A fish out of water, far from her comfort zone, she befriends an amazing horse, and undertakes a misguided journey back to her old life, only to discover that her family is her home

Fables of the West
And just what is it these 'Fables' cowboys do? Well if you've been to a fair in the US in the last few years, you've most likely run across their path. "Its high energy and interactive, and we try to involve fair guests by literally making them the main focus of the show", says Ken McMeans, owner and founder of the Fables team. The group is actually labeled as a 'strolling grounds act'- never really having a specific show time nor needing (or wanting) to be on a stage ("too far away from the crowd," says Ken). "I guess I should give some credit to the horses we ride ('faux' Muppet-like miniatures), though they seem to sometimes steal our thunder."
