Charlene Kinley of Cogan Station, PA had her barrel horse stolen from the barn while attending the NBHA World Show Friday, November 6th in Augusta, GA. Kinley resides in PA and needs a lot of help with the Internet and posting flyers etc. She is devastated by her loss as she has raised this horse from birth. It was taken out of it stall at the show grounds late Friday night. During the National Barrel Horse Finals in Augusta, Georgia my 4 year old dark bay 15.2 Reg. Q.H. Gelding, who has been with me since birth, was stolen. He was taken from his stall at the Hippodrome in South Carolina, Friday night 11-6-98 wearing a  navy blanket with burgundy trim. He has a long face, his mane is black, it is shorter from the withers to half way up neck, and the rest is longer. His tail is also black with red highlights. His right hind coronet is partially white. The left hind pastern is half-white with dark spots on left hind coronet. A few white hairs appear on the outside of his left front knee. Has bone splint on inside of right front leg, below knee. When relaxed his bottom lip hangs. Allergic to dry sawdust which may cause him to cough and rub hair off underside of belly. Is quiet, loves people and has done barrels.
