Reining superstar Andrea Fappani and the dynamic stallion 007 are proving nearly impossible to beat. Just two weeks after their headline-grabbing triumph at The Run For A Million in Las Vegas, the pair delivered another show-stopping performance—this time at the 100X Tulsa Reining Classic, capturing the coveted Level 4 Open Derby title with a remarkable 233.5.

Setting the Arena Ablaze

By the time Fappani and “Bond” rode into the pen, the competition had already thrown down some serious scores. Unfazed, the duo executed a brilliant, high-energy pattern that not only bested the field but also surpassed Fappani’s own earlier 230 aboard Trashinyurdreams. Their precision and speed left no doubt who owned the night, earning them $17,661.15 and cementing their place at the top.

A Rapid-Fire Rise

This Tulsa victory comes hot on the heels of their electrifying 234-point ride at The Run For A Million’s $100,000 Open Shootout, a win that secured their invitation to the 2026 TRFAM main event. For a relatively new partnership, the chemistry between horse and rider has been instant—and the results speak volumes. Two marquee wins in as many weeks have turned heads across the reining world.

Bond’s Growing Legacy

The 2019 stallion, officially registered as Gunner Dun It Again x Solidly Spirited, has steadily built an impressive résumé. Before teaming with Andrea, 007 had already shown promise under Luca Fappani and professional Gabriel Borges, collecting titles like the 2023 100X Reining Championship and a 2024 100X Derby Reserve finish. Now, with Andrea in the saddle, his career earnings have surged past $449,000, adding over $46,000 in just a fortnight.

Fappani’s Double Take

Fappani didn’t stop with Bond. He guided Trashinyurdreams to a strong 230 for the reserve championship and an additional $10,750.27 in winnings. Close behind, Jason Vanlandingham rode Best Shine to a 229 and Plus Me Im Shiny to a 228.5, tying with Mirko Midili on Mark My Word to round out the leaderboard.

Bottom Line 

Andrea Fappani and 007 are more than a hot streak—they’re shaping up to be one of reining’s most electrifying pairings. With back-to-back wins and sky-high scores, this partnership is rewriting the expectations for what’s possible in the show pen.
