KM Flat Out The Best turned out to be the best in the first Pleasure Versatility Challenge at the 2018 Lucas Oil AQHA World Championship Show.
A 2015 red roan mare by VS Flatline and out of KM Best To Be Slow by RL Best Of Sudden, “Lily” placed first in the conformation and third in the pattern and western pleasure sections of the event. She is owned by Susan Johns of Scottsdale, Arizona
“Everyone worked as a team – that was my favorite part about it,” said AQHA Professional Horsewoman Deanna Searles, who showed the mare. “You know, it was fun. All of us went out there and tried on the young ones that weren’t broke at it. It was fun. The camaraderie of all of the trainers getting together was the best part.”
Lily was started by AQHA Professional Horseman Rusty Green, and Katie Green started KM Flat Out The Best.
“She is just a cutie,” Deanna said of the mare. “She tried – she was learning all of this stuff. Rusty and Katie Green started her, (and) they did the pleasure. We did the lead changes on her; Rusty and Katie were doing the lead changes on her. She has trail started already. It’s a lot, but it was slow, and she’s pretty easygoing.”
