Covered by Cori becomes the Official Equine Insurance Company of the Riata
Feb 4, 2025
Team ropers and stallion owners that provide the highest quality
rope horses in the world have captured the competitive minds of men and women
across the United States and beyond for the last thirty-five years. With the
growth of the sport, comes the horsepower needed to compete. As the
competitions have increased, so have the value of great head and heel horses. Horse
values have skyrocketed over the last five years due to many factors including
payouts, supply and demand, futurity events and the Riata Stallion Incentive.
With horses becoming a "CapEx"
(capital expenditure), horses have become less of an afterthought and more of a
necessity.
Covered by Cori is pleased to become the official Equine
Insurance company of the Riata Stallion Incentive as they attempt to change the
face of the rope horse industry. Cori
Cosper is a third-generation insurance professional who has dedicated her life
to the niche of insuring performance horses and cattle. Cori leads a team of
agents who represent five different states and are licensed in thirty-eight
states in the U.S. Covered by Cori currently represents over 5,500 horses
throughout the country and thousands of head of cattle.
"My grandfather was an All-State agent in the 70's and I
learned the business from my mother and took that knowledge to start Covered by
Cori," said Cori Cosper, Owner of Covered by Cori Horse and Cattle Insurance. "99.9%
of our business are horses and cows. We have a very focused business with
underwriters who know and trust what we do. Each performance horse is
different, whether a rodeo horse, an aged-event cutter, or a weekend jackpot
head horse. We know the differences and truly tailor a coverage plan that best
fits that horse and the horse owner's
needs. "
"We are proud to be a family-owned business. I actually pulled my
mom out of retirement to run one of our locations in Dalhart, Texas. Our other
location is in Weatherford, Texas and our team consists of agents who actually
compete on the same type of horses they insure," Cosper said. "Our seven agents are cutters,
reiners, barrel racers, ropers, and reined cow horse competitors. My goal has
always been to have agents who truly care about the horses they cover and, more
than that, really understand the value and needs of the owners. We make every
effort to help horse owners understand how a relatively low investment in
custom insurance, can help if and when the unthinkable happens."
