 Hi everyone, I'm here with the winner of the $50,000 Amateur Division of the World Finals that's Shane Crawford. He rode Ward Julie. Congratulations to you Shane. Thank you. How did it feel to win this world title? Oh it was awesome. It was awesome. Tell us, take us through your two go rounds. The first go round I had a little tough luck, tried to cut my first cow, it just didn't work. The second go round I came back strong. I marked a 218 and I won that go round so, yes. Came into the finals some 10,000 ahead. What was your strategy then to take it out all together? Yes ma'am, just to go have fun and I wasn't really worried about it and just to go have fun and not worry about anything. Well with the $10,000 lead you got the room there to have a bit of fun with the finals. Yes ma'am, I do. Yes ma'am. A little interruption there. What made you decide to go hauling this year? Well I really wasn't supposed to haul this year, we were just going to show and have fun and at the first year at Arena 1, Batesville, the 8 day circuit there, I won a couple thousand dollars and just wound up in the lead for the world standings and we decided to haul from there. So tell us about Ward Julie. He's 14, he's a doleray, his mama's instant merry, he's like my best buddy. He's pretty loyal. You know what he's going to be every time you go down the herd, just as long as you don't make no mistakes, he's pretty good. Now you're a bit of a veteran almost at the age of 14 with hauling for world titles. Tell us about the other world title you've got under your belt now. Yeah I won the 2014 two-limit rider world championship and that was a blast. I hauled him the same horse I hauled him all year and that was just real fun. So you and he have done a few miles together then, two world titles and two years of hauling? Yes ma'am. Yep. You have hauled for three years, was that with a different horse? Yes ma'am, the first year I hauled Ward Julie and the two and then last year I hauled Hoodak Cat in the 50,000 amateur and made the top 15. Wow, so every year you've hauled you've either won it or made the finals? Yes ma'am, correct. That's very impressive. What are your goals with cutting? Well, just to do the best as I can. I'm real passionate about the sport, I love it and just try to go as far as I can. There really is no limit to the sport so just keep shelling. Is it something you'd like to do as a career? Yes ma'am, definitely. Yes ma'am. So perhaps a training career and a lot more titles in your future? Yes ma'am, I hope so. Well, we'll be watching you. Thank you and congratulations. Thank you.
