Dr. Kelly Lear-Mancinelli, pictured here with Singin For A Miracle, just won her 20th Pinto World Championship at the 2025 Pinto World Show in Amateur JR Ideal Pinto Solid.
Reader Denise Lear explains, “Her gelding is the son of her famous mom, Singin Saddie Sue, who passed away in Nov 2021. Saddie was a 16 time world champion, a 16 time Congress champion, and she was inducted into the 2022 Pinto Horse Association Hall Of Fame. Singin For A Miracle (Brodie) is very special, and I bet his mom (Saddie) is so proud. Kelly had this to say: “It’s tough starting over after riding a horse like Saddie for 27 years, but I’m glad I’m starting over on her son.”
Thank you to Denise Lear for the submission, and congratulations to Dr. Kelly!
