Diamond J Ranch is proudly affiliated with Cameo Fence!

When we purchased Diamond J Ranch in 2023, the entire property needed new fencing — and we were determined to choose the absolute best for our horses. Safety was our top priority, along with durability, value, and easy installation. After extensive research, Cameo Horse Safe Fencing checked every box. Cameo is purpose-built for horses, with a highly visible, flexible design that helps prevent injuries often seen with other fencing options. It’s strong enough to safely contain horses but gives way in emergencies, low-maintenance, long-lasting, and incredibly easy to install. On top of that, their customer service is outstanding — knowledgeable, responsive, and truly invested in your success. Choosing Cameo wasn’t just a fencing decision — it was one of the best investments we’ve made for our ranch. We have complete peace of mind knowing our horses are protected by a product we fully trust. If you want safe, reliable, top-quality fencing, Cameo is the clear choice!

We will have time slots from 10-1PM to help minimize congestion in our parking area, and will be utilizing a “haul-in & haul-out” style. This means you’ll show up for your time slot, run, and enjoy the rest of your day without being held up at a barrel race! Please be courteous and make room for others when you have finished your runs. Grounds fee is $15/rider, waived for current Diamond J Ranch boarders/training horse clients. Negative Coggins & helmets for riders under 18 required.

We will be requiring online pre-entry for each race which will open 1 week before and close 24 hours prior to the race. We will not be accepting day of registration or additional entries once online entries have been closed. No exceptions! The draw will be posted the day of the race and there will be no changes to entries or refunds once entries close. Races will be rain or shine in our covered arena!
