EMMA
GIBSON
Youth Barrel Racer & Pole Bender
Getting back up. Staying on. Winning.
A little grit.
A whole lot of heart.
Meet Emma Gibson, a young rider from Stevenson, Alabama, with a love for fast runs, good horses, and the people cheering her on.
What began as riding for therapy has grown into a passion for barrel racing and pole bending. With her grandfather Rip, local trainers, and her horse Sugar by her side, Emma is making every ride count.

Chasing the next great run.
The night she
got back up.
One night, another horse came underneath Emma’s horse from behind. She was thrown, her foot caught in the stirrup. Her horse stepped on her and dragged her more than 50 yards.
It was a frightening fall. But that wasn’t where her story ended. Emma got up, got back in the saddle, and went on to win first place that same night.
That’s the heart behind every run: courage, determination, and a young rider who refuses to let one hard moment define her journey.
Stand behind her next ride.
