Leslie Smalygo and her equine partner, Gus, had four straight days of barrel racing at the Calgary Stampede and on Championship Sunday, the duo only got faster. They came into the Semifinals the No. 1 team from Pool C with $18,000 won and their slowest time so far being a 17.14-second run. That would remain their slowest time of the week as they stopped the clock at 16.99 in the Semifinals before laying down a 16.94 in the Final Four.
