In fact, she’s already seven years into her career.
When she was 2, Riley was given a pony and was soon riding high and breaking records. She got her start in competition with the Lake George Outfitters and Gymkhana in Lake George.
Today, Riley has several awards under her belt through the Lake George Outfitters, America’s Mountain Barrel Racing and Ute Pass Saddle Club.
Riley’s awards include a couple of Reserve Grand Champions and three Grand Champions. Her most recent accomplishment was winning becoming Grand High Point Champion at Mile Hi Barrel Horse Association in October.
Young Riley has a real passion for horses and competition. “My mom got me into it, but now, I love every minute,” she said.
