KT Novakoski won the open 2D both days last year and she is bringing two horses back!

KT Novakoski & “Frosty” and “Headlight” — TBT Fire And Fame & The End Game
Grand Haven, MI · Qualified at last year’s BOTB and Berlin Fairgrounds

KT Novakoski is bringing two very different horses to Springfield. “Frosty gives me her 100% whenever I ask. She has the best work ethic I have ever seen and the biggest personality ever.” Headlight is the easy-going one — “he’ll do anything I ask with no hesitation. I can never blame anything on him, because he does exactly what I ask.”

Frosty earned this year’s ticket the hard way: at last year’s BOTB she won the open 2D on both Saturday and Sunday, and placed in the youth. KT also names taking her horses to Texas last winter and running against NFR girls as a career highlight.

The horses live right at her house — “I love that I get to look out my window and see my babies in the front yard.” Her coach and friend Becky taught her the majority of what she knows, and her first barrel horse Rummi taught her everything else.

Her message: “Good luck!”

Welcome back, KT.
