The NRCHA is excited to announce the latest million dollar rider, John Swales of Millarville, Alberta, Canada. Swales is also the first Canadian rider to pass the million dollar mark in the NRCHA.

Swales crossed the million dollar mark at the Alberta Reined Cow Horse Association Snaffle Bit Futurity, Derby, & Cow Horse Show at the end of August. Going into the event, Swales was just over $10,000 from the milestone. After earning top placings in both the Open Bridle, Futurity, and Derby events, Swales brought his lifetime earnings to $1,009,932.79.

“A couple of years ago, I realized that earning a million dollars in the reined cow horse was a possibility. At the beginning of this year, I knew that it was in reach and so I thought it would be a cool thing to accomplish,” Swales said. “I actually didn’t realize I had won as much as I did to this point in the year until my sister [Veronica Swales] told me.”
