Stolis Winner named World Champion
 
Stolis Winner was named AQHA 2008 World Champion, Champion 2-Year-Old and Champion 2-Year-Old Gelding!
 
Stolis Winner is the first 2yo in 13 years to be named AQHA World Champion.   Putting him over the top were earnings of $1,820,437, in 9 starts, 8 wins and one second.   Had he not pulled up lame after the trials for the Texas Classic Futurity his earning would have been almost 3 million.  Even without the Texas classic Stolis is the richest 2-year-old quarter horse in history, the seventh richest quarter horse of all-time and the richest quarter horse of 2008.
 
Also of note, AQHA 2008 Champion Owner and Champion Breeder: Jerry Windham, AQHA 2008 Champion Jockey: G. R. Carter Jr.
 
Congratulations and Thanks to everyone who made it happen.
