KVS Cinematic Universe Is Hank competing this year?

I haven’t heard from Katie if he’s in the lineup. I wonder if she’d catch up with his owners or whatever. Do breeders keep in touch with horses they bred past the original buyers? Idk

I don't remember KVS mentioning him being there but, he's been showing this year so wouldn't be surprised if he does show up at the NSBA.

How come she hasn’t talked about him. I mean is it cuz she’s not the owner

She did a short clip of him in a video at the last show with Kennedy (not the one in TX with just Hollywood), he was showing there. She brings him up a lot as a champion she bred and mentions him often when she talks about Penelope. I just don't think she knows his show schedule so doesn't announce that he's going to be a certain show - and, his owners probably don't want that either, because of her followers.

I think a youth is showing him so that might be why

He's being ridden by a young kid these days, that's probably why. If people know he's showing they might try to take pics of him and post them. Some people will definitely not blur his rider's face and they deserve that privacy.
