From the Barrel Horse News article by By Blanche Schaefer:
"Winning one $100,000 slot race is no easy mission, let alone three in one year. Since December 2016, Lacey Harmon has done just that, all aboard horses bred, raised and trained at her family’s Split Bone Ranch in Bluff Dale, Texas, and owned by her mother, Kathy Donegan.
In 2016, she took home the coveted $100,000 Barrel Futurities of America Super Stakes title aboard Flashin Flitter. She collected another $100,000 slot win a couple months later in February 2017, dominating by six-tenths of a second, on Just The Way You Are (Roosters Fame x Streakin Scat Cat x Bop Trot) at the final LG Pro Classic. Harmon repeated her Super Stakes victory at the 2017 BFA on Tee It Up In My Sox, becoming the first back-to-back Super Stakes champion in BFA history.
“It’s all coming to play,” said Harmon, whose Equi-Stat winnings now surpass $653,600. “Everybody keeps telling me it’s something for the record books, because nobody’s ever bred, raised and trained so many slot horses. It shows hard work pays off, and having good bloodlines and good barrel horses all pays off.”
The Super Stakes is an especially difficult race to win—a single run, high-stakes debut for 3-year-olds that have never been entered. Harmon takes an intuitive approach to ensuring her horses are healthy and ready to run and that she is mentally prepared when she heads down the alley."
