This episode we sit down with two well known judges from the fine harness world, Bret Day and Smith Lilly. They join Kyle and Mark for an honest conversation about how their judging process really works, what they are looking for in the ring, and how decisions get made when things are tight. We also spend some time comparing the fine harness side to the draft horse industry and where the two worlds line up and where they don’t. Good insight, good conversation, and a few moments that might make you rethink how you watch a class from the rail.

This episode is a true roundtable talk focused on the Youth Classic Cart Series and the results of the recent membership survey. Kyle and Mark sit down with Doyle Dingman, Enos Yoder and Greg Bourbonnais to walk through what the survey asked, what members had to say, and what themes kept popping up in the responses.

We cover what’s working well, where there’s room to grow, and how the feedback could help shape the future of the Youth Classic Cart Series. It’s an honest, respectful conversation that keeps the focus where it belongs—on the kids, the families, and the long-term success of the program.

If you filled out the survey, this one’s for you. If you didn’t, it’s still worth a listen to hear where things stand and where they may be headed next.
