Lloyd Cox<\/figcaption><\/figure>Lloyd Cox claimed both open divisions of the Breeders Invitational on 4-year-old Hottish, owned by Dustin and Deena Adams and 5-year-old One Time Royalty, owned by SDM Quarter Horses. He also placed third with One Time Royalty and 19th on Tazs Dreamgirl, in the “Special 5” 5-year-old division; tied for sixth in the Derby on Betty Greyble, owned by Linda Holmes, and placed with Tazs Dreamgirl, owned by Kathleen Moore.<\/p>\n

Altogether, Cox’s mounts collected $153,741 during the show, which concluded its 17-day run in Tulsa, Okla. on May 26. The winnings took Cox, who is ranked third among cutting’s all-time leading trainers, past the $5.5 million mark for offcial NCHA earnings. Only Phil Rapp with $7.6 million, and Matt Gaines with $6.2 million, have earned more.<\/p>\n

Hottish scored 223.5 points for the BI Derby $63,468 win, which followed on the heels of his 227-point NCHA Non-Pro Super Stakes win in April with Dustin. The Spots Hot son, out of Stylish Play Lena, earner of more than $265,000 and dam of earners of nearly $800,000, was trained by Cox, who also trained and showed Stylish Play Lena for Linda Holmes.<\/p>\n

“I think he’s the best horse I’ve ever had,” said Adams, who purchased Hottish as a yearling, from Linda Holmes’s sister, Gail Holmes. “You can tell when he gets in the (spot) lights it means a lot more to him.”<\/p>\n

Thundercat scored 221 points under Matt Miller for Don and Joetta Bell as reserve champion. The High Brow Cat son, who earned $38,819, is out of Desire Some Freckles, another notable show mare and producer.<\/p>\n

One Time Royalty, 2010 NCHA Futurity champion with Cox, earned $34,752 for his 224.5-point Challenge win, and $23,978,23 in the Special 5, which increased his NCHA career earnings to $329,667.<\/p>\n

The Special 5 was a one-time division for horses that were entered as 4-year-olds in the 2011 event, which was canceled due to concerns about an EVH-1 outbreak at another show.<\/p>\n

Sly Playgirl, by That Sly Cat, shown by Jaime Snider for Rocking L Cutting Horses, won the Special 5 and $66,143 with 224 points; SDP Locked N Loaded, by Laredo Blue, was reserve champion with 221.5 points under Michael Cooper, for Gary Rosenbach.<\/p>\n

Stylish Martini, by Docs Stylish Oak and shown by Roger Wagner for Marvine Ranch, was reserve champion of the Open Challenge division with 223 points.<\/p>\n
