 Welcome to the 2017 NCHA Lucas Oil Superstakes. I'm here with the winner of the amateur four-year-old final, Kayden Rutherford, who rode fantastic one and marked a 2-15. Congratulations to you, Kayden. Thank you very much. Thank you. How does it feel to have this win under your belt? It's pretty special. It's been a dream come true. Everyone I've looked up to has won in this pin and done well in this pin. I just wanted to go out there and have a clean run and just happened to be my day. What was your game plan? Today I just wanted to get drove out far and just be clean and accurate and get this horse through a run. Cody's going to show him on Thursday in the open and I just wanted to keep him together for Cody to show him and not do anything too crazy out there. So describe your run to us as you went through it. First cow we cut was a slick yellow cow and she was a little tough there to start. She kind of got me a little flat in the corners a little bit. It was trying a little hard. I didn't really get driven up as far as I wanted to. But we held her and it was all good win there for our second cow and I cut a black calf and she let me kind of drive her up pretty far. And she was awesome. She kind of helped make my run. And then we finished up on a little black baldy that Cody kind of pointed me out. It was right there on top. And she just helped finish the run and just helped get through it really. Overall it seemed to be a fairly low scoring final. Were you nervous with the 215 because you were in the first set. Yeah I had a good draws fourth horse in the first set and I mean the cows were really tough all morning long. And I was I mean I wasn't even in here for the second set. I didn't watch the second set. You butterflies. Yeah I was just pumped to get shown in here in the finals. I've had a lot of tough luck in here in the finals and I was just really happy to get through it in here in the finals for sure. How do you find competing in the Will Rogers. Does it just make you more nervous than other other arenas or what's your take on it. I mean it's really hard to describe what it's like showing in here. The five six year old I had a lot of trouble just getting shown and getting through runs and I don't know what it is. I mean this place is just special. There's something about this place that just makes you feel all the history. And I don't know what it is. I mean I've seen a lot of fertility finals in here and seeing this place get really wild. And there's just something about that even when it's empty it's like just surreal to be in here and competing in a go round much less the finals of a triple crown event for sure. Okay so tell us about how you got into cutting. My dad actually was given two mayors, two Doc Lena mayors by his old business partner Max Pointer from Jacksboro. And he's one of our great family friends and I started riding with Diego and a Senseon and a Don Benuelos. And those guys kind of taught me the basics of cutting and moved on, rode a Tom to Vorac. And that guy's like a brother to me. I can't say enough good things about that guy. He's probably one of the coolest guys, most genuine guys I've ever met in my life. And he's taught me more about not just about cutting and getting through runs, but taught me so much about persevering and not letting the bad times and the bad things get you down and just kind of putting your butt down and going forward. And I just can't say enough about him and Cody Porterfield as well. I kind of am a new part of his program and I've been riding with him for about a year. And both him and his wife Cheyenne, they're just top shelf people. And really look out for me, look out for my horses. Just want me to do good. Sounds like you've got a great cutting family behind you there. Even here you've got your own kind of private house at Tom to Vorac. Yes ma'am. Tommy D sold my dad actually part of his place, a little house kind of in the back part. And my mom's renovated and getting ready to move out there pretty much full time. So we're pretty excited about that. All right, finally tell us about Fantastic One. It's a horse you share with your brother. Explain that. Yeah, we bought this horse. My brother and I bought this horse at the NCHA Ferturity this past year after the amateur go rounds. And Clay pulled me to the side one day and said, hey, I think this would be a great horse for you to show. And I think Cody could do well on it too. And picked up the phone and called my brother and he was like, hey, let's go have some. Let's buy it. And I was like, all right, man, like that sounds good to me. But he's giving you the reins to show it essentially. He's just awesome. We're just a tight family. And if one of us is all in for something, everyone kind of jumps on board and goes with it. It's pretty cool. That's really nice. Great speaking with you today. Congratulations. Thank you very much.
