  Cloned Mules !     

Winnemucca Mules Somewhere between Salt Lake City and Reno sits the town of Winnemucca Nevada, it is the site of the Humboldt County Fairgrounds. For years this has been the site two days of pari mutual mule racing.

A mule is a cross between a female donkey and a male horse, when they run they look like horses with big floppy ears. Back in 2006 there was a buzz thru the mule racing world as two cloned mules took on their natural born counterparts, it looks like a-natural came out on top.

Racing here looks like it's been around since 2002. Racing was cancelled in 2011 when an equine epidemic was going around, but returned for the last two years. In 2013, Cowboy Way took the featured Humboldt County Futurity. As for 2014, you can check the Racing With TRS site. Which features many of the fair meets out west.
