Heather Herring from Belleville  MI will be riding her rescue horse Rocket!

Heather Herring from Belleville MI will be riding Frosted Hillbilly AKA Rocket they qualified at Slide on Inn Arena in MI for the 2025 Best of the Best!

What I love most about my horse is, I rescued Rocket from a not-so-good situation about a week after my heart horse passed away, everyone told me not to get him due to the condition he was in and felt he’d never be rideable let alone win due to a severe parrot mouth. I took a chance, falling in love with him, and he truly will do anything for me now. It’s a wonder what they do if you care for them properly. I’m so excited to finally prove this horse worthy!

How many times have you qualified for the Best of the Best? This is my 1st time, I’ve never had a horse at this caliber and am so excited to keep growing with him and shaving off time!

Tell us what you love about your farm or boarding days with your horses, I keep my horses at my house and it’s perfect for me, I’m able to go back there and see all my fantastic horses everyday.

What is your biggest win as a rider? My congress medal with Rocket 1 year ago running a 22.9 in poles! My first quarter horse congress placing!

Who is the person who made you the rider you are today? My heart horses Red Velvet and Zeus’s Thunder deserve that credit, teaching me everything I know
