August 13, 2010 Off By Roberta Johnston

Wide World of Horses, the most watched equine program on RFD-TV, will air the 2010 Ranch Sorting National Championships National Finals the week of September 6.

More than 3,800 teams competed at the RSNC National Finals, which were June 28-July 3 at the Hardy Murphy Coliseum in Ardmore, Oklahoma, and Wide World of Horses was there to capture all of the excitement of the highly competitive finals as well as the Celebrity Sort.

Ranch Sorting is one of the fastest growing equine sports in the nation, and the mission of RSNC is to lead the industry in developing and improving the sport of Ranch Sorting through affordability and a fair rating system.

“Our goal is to preserve the heritage and integrity of the ranching lifestyle while providing a family-oriented, competitive riding experience at the grassroots level,” RSNC President Dave Wolfe said.

Wide World of Horses, a True South Production, airs each week on RFD-TV. It began in January 1, 2007, and quickly became known for its quality and for the interesting and compelling programs that highlight the broad range of events, people, and of course, horses, that make up the contemporary equine scene.

Available in more than 40 million homes, RFD-TV can be seen on satellite systems Dish (Channel 231) and DirectTV (Channel 345), as well as Cox, Mediacom, Charter, Suddenlink, Bresnan and various Comcast cable systems.

Each weekly program is run three times – every Monday at 12:30 p.m. EDT and 10:30 p.m. EDT and on the following Sunday at 7:30 a.m. EDT. The flexible schedule allows viewers who miss an episode or just want to re-watch one to catch a later showing.
