This year's running of the Cajun Classic was held on January 30-February 2 at the Powers and Weaver Farms in Hickory Valley, Tennessee.

The weather this year was very favorable for the 34 entries. Every brace except two did not have any bird work in the four days' running.

Bubba Spencer and Greg Tapp were the judges for the Cajun Classic stake and placed Como Thunder first. He had an extreme forward ground race and three finds for handler Brody Byrd. Dunn's True Reign, handled by Allen Vincent, was second with two finds and a smooth, controlled ground race. Third was Ascension, handled by Korry Rinehart, with one find and a stop to flush.

Brody Byrd and Lowry Strickland were the judges for the Evangeline Open Derby and named Miss Arkansas first. Sue had a big upfront race and a very nice limb find for handler Mike Lemons. Blackhawk Lucky Charm, handled by Allen Vincent, was second with a back and a nice forward ground race. Third was Bandit's Hill Avenger by Ike Todd, with a smooth ground race.

A special thank you is extended to Ric Peterson and adjacent landowners Conrad Powers and the Weaver family for allowing us to use their property.
