Cullins and Cameron take Top Honors at the 2019 NBHA World Championships

Posted on November 4, 2019

Barrel racers from around the world gathered on October 26 – November 2 for the 2019 NBHA Open and Senior World Championships in Perry, Georgia. A featured event on the National Barrel Horse Association’s tour schedule, the 2019 World Championship pulled approximately 1,000 entries and offered over $300,000 in cash and prizes. The event featured international riders from Australia, Italy, Canada, Pamana and the United Kingdom. Brandon Cullins (Clements, MD) took top honors in the Open division with a 14.762 riding A Cornerstone. Edwin Cameron (Tatamagouche, NS) secured the Senior division aboard A Dash Ta Glamour with a 14.962.

“The excitement of this event never ceases to amaze me” stated NBHA Executive Director Sherry Fulmer. “This was the most well-spoken, fun loving group of kids and young adults I’ve met. They were up for anything – any race – any contest of any kind. Not just barrel racing but art contests, fishing contests, and a host of other enjoyable activities. It was nine days packed full of fun for everyone involved.”

In addition to cash prizes, brand new 4 Star Trailers valued at over $32,000, were awarded to both the Open and Senior 1D Champions. Each Champion from all 5Ds, plus all Open and Senior Finalists were awarded Gist Silversmiths buckles. Championship prize packages also included awards from Alamo Saddlery, Triple Crown Feed, Wrangler, Yeti, Professional’s Choice, Justin Boots, Oxy-gen Inc., and Boot Barn.

Cullin’s victory was bittersweet. His mount A Cornerstone, was owned by the late Sarah Attea Griffin and the Open Finals marked the one-year anniversary of Sarah’s passing.

“I have had him (A Cornerstone) for almost two years now and he has been a great horse” “stated 1D Open World Champion Brandon Cullins. “Sarah got to start to see him start to win before her passing. He’ll always be a very special horse to me.”

Cameron’s mount A Dash Ta Glamour, although a recent purchase, in the perfect combination of Cameron’s two favorite bloodlines.

“A Dash Ta Glamour is a 7-year-old, who I purchased in July. He’s sired by JL Dash Ta Heaven, out of a Bully Bullion mare, his breeding is as good as it gets for me. I’m a JL Dash Ta Heaven fan and a Bully Bullion fan, so this horse is both, all in one package” stated 1D Senior World Champion Edwin Cameron.
