The award-winning Wide World of Horses has returned for a second season in 2008. According to Cheryl Magoteaux, of True South, Inc., the weekly television program will continue on RFD-TV throughout 2008.

In other programming, the celebrated Southwest Reining Horse Association 2007 Futurity was the focus of one January program, part of the 2008 Oklahoma Series sponsored by the Oklahoma Tourism and Agricultural Departments. Next on the Oklahoma Series lineup is the Lazy E Arena's Timed Event Championships from Guthrie, Oklahoma, set to air April 21.

As always, said Magoteaux, the program will feature a wide slice of the performance horse world. The Envision! video crew was busy at the American Quarter Horse Association World Championship show, filming shows to air through March.
