Even the most seasoned cutters will tell you that it’s hard to win one of the National Cutting Horse Association’s major aged events. So how hard it is to win two? Or three? Or six, for that matter?

If you count just the Open and Non-Pro classes at the NCHA Futurity, Summer Spectacular and Super Stakes, plus the Gelding Stakes and the old NCHA Breeders Cutting, only 46 individual horses have taken home more than one trophy.

And only nine individuals have won three or more of those events. Naturally, you have the Triple Crown trio of Smart Little Lena, Docs Okie Quixote and Chiquita Pistol, along with fellow three-event winners Dual Pep, Little Tenina, Playboy Olena and Sister CD.

Above them only two horses, Sandy Bonelli’s Shakin Flo and Phil Rapp’s Tap O Lena, have won more, raking in six championship titles each. Shakin Flo won the Non-Pro Futurity in 1997, followed by the Non-Pro Super Stakes, Open Derby, Non-Pro Super Stakes Classic, Open Classic Challenge and Non-Pro Classic Challenge. Tap O Lena won the Open Super Stakes in 1994, followed by the Non-Pro Derby, both divisions of the Super Stakes Classic, and both divisions of the Classic Challenge.

If you total up the winning scores for those two horses in those events, Shakin Flo marked a combined 1351 points, while Tap O Lena scored 1350.5.

Here’s a look at multiple winners through the years . . .
