Equine Obituary – Cash Lotto
Thursday, June 26, 2025

On June 24, 2025, we said goodbye to our beloved RWC horse, Cash Lotto. Affectionately known as "Cash," he was owned by Carson Mills of Harrodsburg, Kentucky, and spent many years competing throughout Middle Tennessee with an impressive and successful show career.
In the last three years, Carson and Cash built an unbreakable bond, creating lasting memories while making many memorable rides in the Pony Class circuit in Kentucky. Cash was trained by Allen and Ken McQuerry at McQuerry Stables in Harrodsburg, where he helped shape Carson into a confident young exhibitor, teaching him the values of patience, determination, and sportsmanship.
More than just a show pony, Cash was a cherished part of the Mills family. His gentle spirit and steady presence brought joy to everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. He leaves behind a legacy of ribbons, rides, and unforgettable moments.
Cash, thank you for the ride of a lifetime. You will be forever missed.
